I like my 20v black and decker. They get a bad rep but I’ve had great luck with the batteries.I’ve got a 20v black and decker. Not sure about an acreage but it suits my slice of suburbia just fine. I can do the whole yard on one charge

I was in home Depot yesterday and they've got a lineup of lawn mowers by DeWalt, Ryobi and Makita. I guess battery quality is now driving that segment. I feel like Honda is late to the party. They license out their gasoline motors to a lot of lawn mower manufacturers.For the price the Ryobi 40 volt trimmer is your best deal. Decent. Best trimmer is the Dewalt 60 volt you can get at Home Depot. Dewalt has several good trimmers with different battery sizes. All of them decent.

I grew up thinking Craftsman was the best because that's what my dad bought. Now I am brand agnostic. Almost everything is well made these days. I've got mostly Dewalt, some Porter Cable, Hitachi and Bosch. The only tools I have that must be cordless are drills. The rest I don't care. Weight is also a big factor. I never realized the extra fatigue from heavier tools until I started using lighter weight stuff.Weird thing is Honda does have battery powered stuff in Australia and Europe from what i could tell.
For me im looking for the best ecosystem that does it all. Tricky if you want everything including a snow blower to be battery.
