Our favorite electric lawn mower just fell to its best price yet at nearly half off

CNN02-06-2025

Our top pick for the best electric lawn mower just landed at its best price yet on Amazon. Ego makes two of our favorite mowers and the best overall pick, the Ego Power+ LM2135SP, just dropped in price by $449. Loved by CNN Underscored editors for its ease of use and long-lasting battery, this deal is your ticket to a well-kept lawn this spring, summer and beyond.
Ego Power+ Self-Propelled Electric Lawn Mower LM2135SP
Take $449 off our pick for the best electric lawn mower. Alongside the Power+ mower, you'll also get a 550W charger and two batteries for an extended runtime. Read our review Earlier this year, my colleagues published an updated guide to the best electric lawn mowers. Throughout the testing process, they got their hands on eight of the most popular models to cut, bag and mulch grass. Amongst brands like Senix and Ryobi, Ego rose to the top with not only the best electric lawn mower for large yards, but also the best overall pick. It's that second model that's on sale today for its lowest price ever.
In testing, we found that this Ego Power+ mower was easier to operate than the competition, thanks to its self-propelled design. It was just as effective at cutting grass as it was easy to use, sporting a 21-inch cutting deck and plenty of power to make quick work of yards both big and small on a single charge. The specific kit on sale today at Amazon leans into that extended use by including a 7.5Ah ARC Lithium battery in the box and also shipping with an extra 5.0Ah battery. That ensures it offers a longer runtime to help make mowing just a little more fun.
My favorite sales and deals to share are for items we love at all-time low prices. Discounts that check both those boxes are rare to come by, especially with such a steep amount of savings attached. Today's Amazon sale is also a notable chance to take a more environmentally friendly approach to lawn care in 2025 by ditching gas from your tool shed and routine. If you only prioritize making your weekly chores effortless, these tools make it as simple as pushing a button to get to work.
Ages before I started working in service journalism, I was mowing lawns as a summer job. Back then, I would have done anything to skip the ordeal of fussing with an oil primer or a rip cord to get the engine going. I recently had a chance to use an Ego mower, and can easily back my colleagues' claims that the Power+ line makes cutting your lawn far easier.
Ego's status here at CNN Underscored extends beyond just mowers. The company makes our favorite leaf blower, which works with the same electric battery system as the Power+ featured in today's story. So, if you do decide to invest in the electric tool, you'll be able to use its batteries later on in the year when it's time to tackle leaf cleanup.

Democrats split on presidential primary candidate, poll says

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — A new Emerson College Polling of U.S. voters shows that Democrats are split on who they will support in the 2028 presidential primary. According to the poll, 16% support former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, 13% former Vice President Kamala Harris, 12% California Gov. Gavin Newsom, 7% Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, respectively, 5% Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, and 3% New Jersey Senator Cory Booker. 23% percent of voters are undecided. Emerson College reports that in the last poll, held in , Harris received 37% support, Gov. Newsom 7%, and Sec. Buttigieg 4%, Gov. Shapiro 3%, and Gov. Whitmer 3%. In the November poll, voters were allowed to write in their preferred candidate. On a generic 2028 presidential ballot test, 42% would support the generic Democratic candidate, 42% the Republican, and 16% are undecided. 'Similarly to the generic congressional ballot, independents break for the generic Democrat on the presidential ballot, 37% to 29%, with a significant 34% undecided,' said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling, in a news release sent to 6 News. According to the poll, the economy remains the top issue for voters at 32%, down from 41% in March. Threats to democracy are the top concern for 22% of voters, a four-point increase. Immigration follows at 14%, healthcare at 9%, housing affordability at 7%, and crime at 5%. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Trump golfs with Republican senators Schmitt, Graham and Paul ahead of 'Big, Beautiful Bill' vote

President Donald Trump played a round of golf with Republican leaders on Saturday. The president was joined by Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC., Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and CIA Director John Ratcliffe, sources confirmed to Fox News. The outing comes as Republican senators look to pass the "Big Beautiful Bill" by Saturday afternoon. The bill has a self-imposed deadline of July 4. In a memo sent on Saturday to Senate offices, the White House endorsed the latest revisions to the bill and called for its passage, while warning that failure to approve the budget "would be the ultimate betrayal". Graham shared the golf outing in a post on social media, expressing optimism over the bill's vote. Graham revealed the stitched-together text of the colossal bill late Friday night. Republican leaders, the White House and disparate factions within the Senate and House GOP have been meeting to find middle ground on other pain points, such as tweaking the caps on state and local tax (SALT) deductions. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent hammered on the importance of passing Trump's bill on time. He met with Senate Republicans during their closed-door lunch and spread the message that advancing the colossal tax package would go a long way toward giving businesses more certainty in the wake of the president's tariffs. "We need certainty," he said. "With so much uncertainty, and having the bill on the president's desk by July 4 will give us great tax certainty, and I believe, accelerate the economy in the third quarter of the year."

Markets are gearing up for rate cuts. Morgan Stanley thinks investors will be disappointed.

Markets have been clamoring for rate cuts, and are eyeing the next two Fed meetings as possible windows. But Morgan Stanley analysts predict that the Fed won't be cutting rates in July or September. The market's view of rate cuts has brightened after recent dovish commentary. Economists at Morgan Stanley think investors are about to be disappointed in the outcomes of the next two Federal Reserve meetings. The bank said in a note on Friday that, despite a recent push from President Donald Trump and recent dovish talk from central bankers, the July and September FOMC meetings will result in no change to borrowing costs. The Fed's cautious approach this year has sparked backlash from President Trump, who has said he believes interest rates need to be cut "by at least 2-3 points." But since the last meeting, other top Fed officials have come out in support of rate cuts in July, with markets cheering the dovish talk. But Morgan Stanley says don't count on it. Their thesis centers around two key points. First, they expect that the economic data released in the short term will remain consistent with the "wait and see approach" displayed by Powell. While the Fed chairman has reaffirmed a need to further assess the impact of tariffs, he has also recently raised concerns regarding the reliability of economic data. "We expect firmer inflation prints showing more signs of a tariff push over the summer," the analysts note, adding that they also expect the coming employment report to be "relatively solid," both of which are factors unlikely to push the Fed toward rate cuts. They also highlight that despite the recent push from Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, the pro-rate-cut camp is relatively small. "The Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) published last week revealed that there are seven policymakers who expect no cuts this year," the report states. "In fact, the overall tone of Fed speakers this week was much more aligned with Chair Powell's." San Francisco Fed president Mary Daly and New York Fed president John Williams are examples of Fed officials who have taken a more hawkish approach to interest rates. Both have expressed sentiments similar to Powell's. Morgan Stanley added that both Waller and Bowman's statements raised the probability of rate cuts to 20% in July and 60%-90% in September. The higher odds were cheered by markets during the week, with more dovish forecasts helping propel the S&P 500 to a new all-time high. While Morgan Stanley's analysts note uncertainty remains high and that their predictions could be wrong, they maintain that firmer inflation prints will be coming later in the summer and will likely peak in July or August. They add that their forecast is aligned with Powell's expectations, which include tariffs pushing prices higher in the coming months. Read the original article on Business Insider
