So glad I switched from a gas mower to Greenworks electric self-propelled lawn mower. Plenty of power and very quiet. Wish I would have switched sooner.
I love this lawnmower! It's easy, fast, quiet, and comes with an instruction booklet! The only thing that could be changed (and maybe there's a way to do this) is the handle is a little high. Most lawnmowers have an adjustment to lower it. I don't see that in this one. It even has headlights, a mulcher, and a bag to catch the grass if you so desire. It's the best lawnmower ever!!
This is a great mower. I trashed my gas and wanted to go all electric. The 25' makes mowing quick, and it cuts close to edges, making weed trimming fast. I was so excited to get an electric mower so I could mow at night when it is cooler. This mower is quiet and has a nice LED light on it. It will not light up the yard, but will keep you from running into things. I love the way it folds up. I have an 8x5 shed in the backyard, and this mower folds up and fits in it perfectly. I live on a .25 of an acre, house lot, and the two batteries will mow my yard with no problem; in fact, I will use the same batteries for my weed trimmer and blower. Battery charging is quick. When I first got my mower, the batteries were dead. It took about 40 min to fully charge the two batteries.
This mower replaced an old Honda gas mower. I've mowed a few times with it, and here are my insights.
PROS: * Quiet: Much quieter than a gas mower. Basically sounds like a box fan on high. * Lightweight and easy to push: It only weighs 35 pounds, so it's easy to push or even pick up and move when needed. * Plenty of power: I've mowed with the grass long but not overgrown, and this chewed through it easily. * Good battery life: My front and back yards are fairly small (2100 sq. ft.), and the battery still has 3/4 of its charge remaining after mowing.
CONS: * Wheels are plastic: There is no rubber tread on these tires, so I worry about durability.
* Handle technically folds, but it's a pain to do it: This is the one real disappointment for me. Both the upper and lower handles can be released using cam levers, but the upper connection is metal-to-metal and the lower one sits in a plastic depression that keeps it in the correct position when mowing. Moving either handle, in my opinion, risks damaging the handle or mower.
* Mulching performance is acceptable but not stellar: I fully expected this and am OK with it. This mower has a single dual-purpose (bagging and mulching) blade, while my gas mower had a twin-blade system. If you're mowing really long grass, it will leave some clumps of grass on the lawn in mulching mode. Not really a huge deal, as I just used a leaf blower to break them up.
All in all, I'm happy with the new mower. The pros far outweigh the cons.
Love this mower. Love that it’s quieter than my old power mower. Love that I just push a button to start it. Love that it cuts as well if not better. Love that it’s adjustable to a high cut. Love that it stores compactly and love that it cuts my entire lawn on one charge. It’s the most I ever spent on a push mower but I’m not sorry I did.
I purchased this mower because my gas mower died. I use this mower to mow where my riding mower can’t get to. I was pleasantly surprised that it mowed through tall grass that my gas mower struggled with. I purchased the 60 volt mower because I have other products from Green Works that use the same battery. The only issue I have is the push handle is a little high fore and isn’t adjustable. I recommend this mower.
