[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took a few passes at times, but the mower chewed through 20 inch grass (side discharge). Not bad for a battery mower!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this mower about a month ago. It is very easy to assemble. 80V battery is as powerful as a gas mower. And 5.0 Ah makes it faster to charge. I am really satisfied with this product. The self propelled option is also very easy to turn on and off.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this mower for 3 summers It is lightweight, folds for storage, & batteries charge quickly.
I bought 2 years ago works great! However I need a blade and can’t find one! Not happy about that. People who sell them don’t carry the replacement blades! Would have given it a 5.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my 1st battery powered mower and I could not be happier, it is much lighter than gas mowers, quieter and no noxious fumes. I recommended it to all my neighbors.
This was a great upgrade from gas mowers! No more struggles to start a mower. It doesn't break down in the middle of mowing season. My gas mowers would inevitably break down in the middle of mowing season and the wait time for a repair was three weeks. For that reason, I had two mowers. The savings in repair costs has more than made up the difference in price between this mower and a comparable gas mower. My one criticism is the side grass discharge chute. I'd rather not use the bag, so I used the chute. That required installing the plastic cover. Without it, the chute is closed and no cut grass will be ejected while mowing. If the chute cover is bumped against something, it is likely to pop off. This makes it more difficult to mow in tight spaces. I've given up on using the chute and now use the bag. I wish there were a way to open the side chute without installing the plastic cover.
I hate this mower when I try to go backward the wheels lock up. I have tried stopping the mower and pushing it forward, but the wheels still lock up. This has to be the stupidest thing Greenworks has done.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Archie 1776,
Thank you for your review. The self-propelled drive system with rear-wheel-drive and variable speed control on this unit has been designed for maximum traction, maneuverability, and control. Self-propelled mowers move under their own power, utilizing a dedicated propulsion motor or a geared transmission running of the main (blade) motor. This reduces the strain of pushing a heavy lawn mower, meaning bigger areas of lawn can be mowed more frequently as the operators are less fatigued. The wheels temporarily lock when the self-propel feature is not engaged for safety precautions, however with a slight push ahead the mower should engage the self-propelled feature right away and get you right back to mowing as desired.
