Gas Guy Goes Green

I have always had a gas mower and tools, I first switched to the GW 60v blower then got the chainsaw for small projects and even the trimmer when my gas one died. This season I was going to replace my mower, my last gas tool, and really shopped around and when I bought this one. I even told myself I will just return it if it doesn't perform. I am happy to say 3 months in and cutting every week, I am pleased with the mower. My .33 acre yard can be cut with just the 5.0h battery however having the backup battery from my other tool is nice to have as sometimes I forget to fully charge my 5.0 battery. The positives: Its quite compared to gas, the wife loves it and it make you realize how loud the neighbors gas tools are. The bagging option works really well even with wet or heavy grass. The negatives: The self propel takes a second to engage, then when you use it and let off it you need to rock the mower to get the back wheels to release as they are locked to only go forward so you can't pull back. This just takes a few cuts to get used to it then its fine. Overall this is a great tool with plenty of power and lives up to the claims on the GW website! I rarely give a product 5 stars but this product lives up to the hype.
I’ve been mowing for 50 years with a gas mower and was skeptical about buying this but boy was I wrong. Cuts great and I only use half of the battery. Well built and I love it. Cuts my southern Bermuda with ease.
I researched many brands and models before selecting this mower. I have less than a .2 acre lot that is mostly flat with midwest grass. I do have lots of leaves to mulch/bag in the fall, which I have not yet encountered. Overall this mower has been awesome so far. It is very quiet and lightweight. The 4.0ah battery still shows 50%-75% full when I finish mowing. It seems to cut evenly and has a sturdy easy to use design.
I bought this 3 weeks ago, I have used it 5 times, it is a very good mower for my mostly flat yard. Very quiet, I mowed before 7:30 one Saturday. I have not gone through both batteries yet. The second one is well over 3/4 full still and i am able to use my 60 volt blower with it to blow off the clippings.
New house, new sod, let it grow out a bit to establish roots and all that good stuff. Was able to cut with no problem. Impressive power coming from an electric tool.
Quieter, but still let’s you know it’s cutting grass. Capable, and fun to use. I see no performance difference from a traditional mower. The battery life seemed to perform as advertised. I also purchased a Greenworks string trimmer and a blower that have similar results. I love that I can swap batteries in all three tools. I plan on purchasing a Greenworks pole saw as well.
I sure wish I went with Greenworks sooner! This product is incredible! No more worrying about enough gas in the can. I don't have a shed or garage and used to cover my old mower with a tarp. I can now keep this new mower in my basement without worrying about gas. This mower is attractive and extremely affordable. An excellent investment! Do it and don't look back!
