Corded electric mowers are very rare in the USA. I live in a suburban neighborhood in the North East and have never seen one in my life. I see some battery powered ones though.

I wonder if it’s due to our outlets being 120V? We’d be limited to less than 2.5 HP with a normal outlet, whereas gas push mowers typically have engines in the 5-7 HP range.
