I have been using the mower for a month or so now, and probably used it about 5 times so far. I mow my 3/4 acre on a regular basis (almost twice a week). The live of the batteries is good, and I am able to cut the whole lawn mulching the grass on a single charge. When I am finished, I just put the batteries into the charger, and get that going while I spray off the mower. I have actually found that I can cut the grass higher than before, which i like. I have sad sections of the lawn that were high, or dense, and so I turned on turbo mode which also worked well. I find that the self-propelled aspect works good, and I love that you can adjust the speed with your thumbs wile you are mowing. I also find that the drive mechanism takes a little time to get used to. It seems to stay engaged for a little while after you release the levers that makes it hard to change direction quickly. I have changed my behavior to compensate. I release the drive levers with a few steps to go as I reach the end of the row and push a few steps. This gives the mower a few steps to disengage the drive, so I can turn when I reach the end of the row. I also notice that the "vaccuum" aspect of this mower is less than my ICE mower.It is not a big deal currently because I am mulching, but expect when I am trying to use it with the bagger to pick up leaves in the fall will be trouble. I think there are few things that make the mowing experience different, but for the convenience of not having to buy and transport gas, the reduction in noise, and benefits to the environment make it all worthwhile.
It’s very quiet and I was able to use the two 60 V batteries from my other greenworks tools. So I was happy that you offered this without the batteries. I ran it for 45 minutes and the batteries still seem to have a lot of charge left in them. Could not be happier.
It was the best purchase I could of made for my lawn. No gasoline or oil to remember to change. It mows like a champ. Cuts thru my grass on regular mode and get a full cutting everytime. Battery life is unbelievable and the mulching capability is a must!
Really like the mower. My only compliant, and it may be user error, is that it seems to stall out frequently over relatively minor contours in the yard. Otherwise, love the batteries, ease of cleaning, and weight of a fairly big mower.
This lawn mower is great. I resently retired and decided to start mowing our lawn myself. I haven't mowed a lawn in over 12 years. It was easy to assemble, and I was mowing in a few hours.
Nicely engineered yard mower. Easy to use and runs on one battery, or two. Nice Turbo feature for picking up leaves and debris and love the folding feature for storage. Have many Greenworks tools and this fits right in. Thanks Greenworks for another great product. Vince
Ok, just used my new 25” for the first time. Was very impressed with the run time. I have 2/3 of an acre (minus house and pool) and completed the mow with 2 bars left ( of 8 total with 2 batteries). Pictures don’t show it but I have a pretty good slope in the backyard. Only used self-propel a couple of times cuz I like mowing for exercise. Easier to push than my gas mower. After use, haven’t cleared out space in the garage for another mower, but didn’t matter. It folds up very easily, rolls on the wheels like a luggage carrier and stores in very little space. So now the reason for the 3 stars. The whole reason I bought the mower was so my wife could help me mow and get some exercise doing it. I’m 6’1” and the handlebar feels too high for me. My 5’4” wife tried it and said “no way!” When I push it up a hill I feel like I’m pushing the bar over my head and lifting the back tire off the ground. Not sure why it’s so high in the first place but should at least have an adjustment. My shoulders hurt after mowing from having been held so high and pushing at an awkward angle.
I would recommend this to a friend!
