The solar panel is very cool, though at best it only extends battery life by a quarter
Typical price £2,000

Summary:
Its heart is in the right place, but not quite
I like:
It's So Cool. Well-designed.
I don't like:
The price: Get A Grip TWO THOUSAND POUNDS ??!?
Review

I've mowed more lawns than I care to admit.
I own electric and conventional mowers.
My last rechargeable (Unused Floor Model- Black and Decker) cost $150 (American) on This side of "the pond.".
The specs are perfect for the average buyer, but work on the price, guys. and we'll all buy a few (!)
Husqvarna Has to at least get in the ballpark with its pricepoint to have any chance of gaining broad consumer acceptance. We all Want to go green, guys, but... Be real (!)
