Below you'll find current deals on every type of mower, from basic push models through riding tractors and robots, plus a breakdown of exactly when mowers go on sale across the year so you can judge whether to buy in this window or hold off.
Early Columbus Day Lawn Mower Deals
One brand is running real cuts on its own site, and they land on the battery mowers with the battery in the box. These are the live markdowns, checked against each product page.
Greenworks 60V 21 in. Cordless Push Mower with 5.0Ah Battery
- Up to 1/2 acre
- 45 min runtime
- 4-year warranty
The mid-size battery push mower, sold with a 5.0Ah battery and charger. The listing rates it for yards up to half an acre with up to 45 minutes of runtime on the included battery and a 50 minute recharge, with a four-in-one deck that mulches, bags, side discharges and picks up leaves, LED headlights and handles that fold for storage. Four-year tool and battery warranty.
A 38% cut on a current 60V mower with the battery in the box is the number to compare everything else on this page against, because the battery and charger are the expensive part of any cordless mower. Half an acre is the honest limit on one battery; past that, buy the self-propelled kit below with two.

Greenworks 60V 25 in. Dual Blade Self-Propelled Mower with Two 4.0Ah Batteries
- Up to 1 acre
- 60 min runtime
- Two batteries included
The 25 inch dual-blade self-propelled model, which the listing pitches as the largest cutting deck in the category, sold with two 4.0Ah batteries and a dual-port charger. Rated for up to an acre and up to 60 minutes of runtime on the pair, with a three-in-one deck for mulching, bagging and leaf pickup, LED headlights and folding handles.
Twenty five inches is wide enough to cut a suburban lot in fewer passes than a gas 21, and the self-propel is what makes the width usable. Two batteries in the box means one charges while the other cuts, which is the setup that makes an acre realistic on battery power.

Greenworks 40V 17 in. Brushless Push Mower with 4.0Ah Battery
- Up to 1/4 acre
- 40 min runtime
- 3-year warranty
The small-yard mower on the 40V platform, with a 4.0Ah battery and charger in the box. The listing rates it for up to a quarter acre and up to 40 minutes of runtime, with a two-in-one deck that mulches or bags and folding handles. Three-year tool and battery warranty, and the battery runs the rest of the 40V range.
A 17 inch deck is the right size for a townhouse lot or a yard with more edges than open lawn, and at $239.99 with the battery it costs less than a gas mower plus a can of fuel for the season. The 120 minute recharge is the trade against the 60V models above, so plan to charge between cuts rather than mid-cut.

Top 3 Mower Deals on Amazon
These are the three self-propelled mowers with the steepest discounts running at the moment. Self-propelled is the sweet spot for most yards, since it does the pushing for you on slopes without the cost or storage headache of a riding mower.
When Lawn Mowers Actually Go On Sale
Mower pricing follows the same rhythm every single year, and it has far more to do with retail inventory cycles than with any particular holiday. Stores buy mowers for spring, then spend late summer and fall trying to clear whatever didn't sell. Here's how that plays out month by month.
| When | What to expect |
|---|---|
| March to April | The worst time to buy. New stock lands at full price and retailers have no reason to discount anything yet. |
| Memorial Day | The season officially opens. Real sales run, but they're the shallowest of the year. |
| 4th of July | Mid-season. Decent markdowns, usually on last year’s models rather than the current lineup. |
| Labor Day | Clearance starts in earnest. One of the two best windows, and selection is still strong. |
| Columbus Day through October | The deepest discounts of the year as stores clear space for winter equipment. Stock disappears fast. |
| Black Friday | Thinner than you'd expect. Mostly electric and robot models, with very few gas mowers left standing. |
- Push mowers: $180 to $350
- Self-propelled: $300 to $600
- Riding mowers and tractors: $1,500 to $3,000
- Robot mowers: $800 to $2,500
Where Else to Check
Amazon isn't the only place worth looking, particularly on riding mowers where delivery and assembly matter. These three are worth a look in the early Columbus Day window, and buying in person means you can actually push the thing around before committing.
- Tractor Supply carries the gas riding mowers and zero-turns, with in-store pickup so you can sit on the thing before committing, and its own delivery on the larger machines.
- Greenworks is the battery brand with the real markdowns in this window, 29% to 38% off its push and self-propelled line with the battery and charger in the box, as shown in the widget above.
- Walmart tends to be cheapest on entry-level push mowers, though what's actually in stock varies a lot store to store.
How to Pick the Right Mower
Buying the wrong size mower is the most expensive mistake here, and no discount fixes it. Match the machine to your yard first, then worry about the price. Here's the short version.
