I put this mower together directly out of the box So easy to do. I popped the battery in and pushed the start and away we went. So quiet and smooth to use. I mowed mostly the weeds in the lawn because all the grass is on vacation until the rains come to the Pacific Northwest. Along with my electric car I am now a gas free household. No more loud noise and pollutants put into the atmosphere.
After $400+ in repairs on my $400 self-propelled Toro that I bought new in 2015, I decided it was time to rethink the way I mowed. The most recent $120 repair, plus mower rental to complete the yard was barely a month early. There I was, Labor Day weekend, the Toro was dead again. Yes, I was overdue for a mow, but I spent the next week researching cordless mowers. We had two rains on top of my already out of control lawn when I finally decided we had a winner: Greenworks! The lawn was thick, a little damp in places, but I went for it. I was so impressed I could hardly stand it! The mower handled it! The battery did stop when I was well over half way through. I put it on the charger and finished some other chores. I put the battery back in w/ only 2 of 4 bars charged and completed the yard (w/ 1 bar to spare). I was seriously concerned the municipality was going to ticket me because the yard was too tall when I started. I am 100% delighted w/ the way “Grendel” performs (I’ve named the mower after the creature feared by all but Beowulf). Greenworks rocks!
I am enjoying not having to worry about a load and smelly gas mower anymore. Cuts just as well as a gas mower and I like the adjustable speed. Could be a little sturdier though. When I go over small bumps it jumps around without the grass catcher on.
I did extensive research when I was looking for a cordless mower. I wanted all my lawn equipment to be powered by the same voltage battery to make yard work more efficient. Easy to assemble right out of the box and get up and running. I can do all my weed eating, mowing and blower clean up on one battery. Also, I don't have to mess with gas and oil anymore and the biggest surprise is how quite this machine is. I would highly recommend this product to others.
I’m so glad I purchased this mower. I was afraid the battery wouldn’t last but it still had power after I completed my front and back yards. It ran for just over an hour and was easy to assemble and operate.
My first electric battery powered mower. It's self propelled which makes it even better. I was cutting the yard a two ladies getting their walk in told me that was the quietest mower they had ever heard. Light but powerful enough. It came with battery and I brought an extra battery and blade.
I just bought this mower 5 days ago. Out of the box assembly was extremely simple. Left the battery to charge overnight and used it the next day. It is so light that the self propelled feature isn't really necessary on level open areas. Oddly quiet after the old Briggs & Stratton machine. Seemed to cut just fine. The only thing that bothered me about it was that, during assembly, the screws that fasten the handle tended to bind up on the loctite in the threads before they were tight on the handle and the plastic recess around the nut was not a tight enough fit to keep the nut from turning with the screw.
