Our verdict
If you already own Stihl AP-system tools, this is the obvious cordless mower — one battery range, one charger, one shelf in the shed. Build quality is a step above the Bosch and Ryobi rivals at the same price, and the dealer support is what you actually pay extra for. Skip it if you're starting fresh on cordless; the EGO platform gives you more mower for the money.

Buying second-hand
Skin price is £549 but you need the AP 300 S batteries (£189 each) and AL 301 charger (£89). Used kit-form RMA 443 TCs land at £280-350 with two used batteries — that is the buy. Check the battery cells: open Stihl service mode, and any cell pack reading under 80% capacity is worth £40 less.
