Great build quality

This is my 2nd year with this mower and I've had no problems. The only thing that I was a little disappointed with was the 2 batteries (2.5 amp hr) it came with. I wasn't able to finish mowing my yard with the 2 batteries. I purchased a 4 amp hr battery. Problem solved
I would recommend this to a friend!

Light weight. Good mulching. Quiet. Surprisingly fun

I bought the self propelled 25" in June of 2020. I have a little under 1/2 arce of suburban lawn that is about 50% hilly with some over 30% grades. I needed a reliable self-propelled because of a knee problem. My older heavy self-propelled gas mower needed bi-annual (expensive) drive wheel replacements to be useful.
Pros (in no specific order)
1. Everything is easy: Easy to do the minor assembly needed out of the box, easy to start, to change from mulching mode to bagging mode, to change and charge the batteries.
2. Two self-propelled speeds. One very slow (which is ok by me) one fairly fast. The self propelled feature seems to work equally as well on flat areas as it does on hills. I noticed no drop in speed moving from flat to hill.
3. Light weight: Even with the two heavy-ish batteries in place the mower is probably half the weight of a comparible gas powered mower. The light weight meant I could push it more without the self-propelled assist.
4. really like the easy verticle storage configuration.
5. Low(er) noise. The mower sounds like a hair drier on medium-high when running. Much better than the gas powered but not as quiet as you might think. My family inside my house can't hear it. It lets me cut grass at earlier times (I have close neighbors) without bothering anyone.
6. Mulches a-little better than my gas mower.
7. 25 inch deck: My old mower had a 21" cut. I was surprised how the addition of 4" to the cutting path shortened the back and forth cut times.
8. Its green. I feel better not using gas - thats why I bought it. My old gas mower seem to be a gussler. I don't mind working with the limitations of batteries.
9. I like figuring out how to extend the battery run time. This is difficult to explain to non-battery people. If you own a hybrid or electric car - it is not completely brainless - there is always an element of figuring out how far you can go. This comes into play with an electric mower. This would be a pain for some and a challenge for others.
10. Seemless transition between the batteries when in operation
Cons:
1. Batteries: see number 9 above. Althought it would be great if they lasted for a couple hours- the fact is the run time is limited - especially if you use the self-propelled function and have a hilly yard. I would imagine on a flat yard with no self-propelled assist you might get 50-60 minutes of run, I get less because of the hills - (40 minutes). I don't care if I cut my grass in successive outings due to needing to charge the batteries. If I move quickly and modulate when I use the self-propelled I can finish my yard on a single charge.
2. battery charging time. A completely discharged battery will take around two hours to charge back up. The nature of batteries I guess.But it is nice that the charger automatically turns off when done charging.
3. Battery charger noise. The fan on the charger when charging is surprisingly noisy - possibly more that the mower. I don't really care because its in the garage - but it seemed odd.

Takes a couple of passes to realize you need to let go of the self propelled lever couple of steps before you stop to make a turn around . Also not the best mulcher Sometimes you have to go back over some clumps of grass . Other wise , love the mower. Battery life is great . I can mow An hour and never need the second battery to kick in. Very quit Love the mower . Also love the vertical storage . But it !!

Powerful and Quite

I have always bought high priced Honda lawn equipment in the past but still they required oil changes and air filters ,spark plugs and fuel stabilizer over the winter so I decided to give the 60 volt greenworks mower a try and I couldn't be happier. This is an awesome mower with a steel deck and a place for two batteries if desired but I found the 5 amp battery included with mine sufficient for my lawn . Some reveiws said they would like a bit more speed but with any mower I ever had if you go to fast you sacrifice the cut. This is well engineered and plenty fast enough. Great product, thanks GreenWorks

When it comes to making fairly major purchases, my wife jokes I take so much time reading and viewing videos of ratings and reviews that models I consider have been replaced by a newer ones. It's true; I do take my time researching as there is hardly anything more disappointing than to spend hard-earned money on something and then be very dissatisfied. Haste does make waste and without my spending time for due diligence, I have myself to blame.
I start out with a need and search for what can satisfy that need. Then, I do read and view...while learning things I wouldn't have thought of initially (e.g. a brushless motor). Oftentimes, you can't get everything you want or you find out you can, but it is cost prohibitive. So this was my situation. I mow most of my property with a 48" lawn tractor. I say most because we have concrete edging around our numerous flower beds and shrubs. The tractor cannot fit in-between some (and neither could the 22" mower. Year before last, my gas powered mower died. Well, being a young 71 years old last year I decided I would tackle all those areas with just a string trimmer instead of buying a new mower. I should also mention that I used those tools in getting under and around 8 crepe myrtles. On top of that, our outdoor patio has grass slopes on 3 sides that got their attention as the lawn tractor has never been a possibility. Halfway through this mowing season, I began considering options. A thought came to mind that I could maybe cut way down on the amount of string trimmer usage if I had a smaller mower that could fit between the areas of edging, get up under the crepe branches, and wasn't so heavy that the slopes around the patio could be mowed vs being scalped with the weed eater.
We live in South Carolina and have Bermuda grass for lawn. So my solution was to find a mower that would fit between 20" areas of edging and be powerful enough to cut Bermuda. Of course, I also had wants (and here is where it got even trickier to get everything) like a battery that would last long enough for me to do all I needed to complete on one full charge; have both mulching and bagging capability; light enough to push and maneuver on the patio slopes without struggling; and I learned I really wanted a brushless motor for longevity and the power. Yeah, and I wanted it from a company with a decent reputation at a price I could afford and justify. I found all that I and caught a super sale price from the Greenworks quite a bit lower than the big box store carrying it. I also received fast delivery and it was easy to put together and begin to use. But most importantly, and I wouldn't write this if I didn't feel good about doing so because I count on other reviewers' honesty. I have yet to be disappointed with my purchase and I recommend you doing the same if it will satisfy your needs like it has mine.

Excellent mower. Plenty of power and with the two batteries, I have plenty of time to mow what I need to.
