Lawn mower Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 1 year plus ago and it works so well that i have now bought a 80v leaf blower and the string trimer. All work great and all use the same batteries. I now have two chargers and two batteries and all work great. One battery quit and I called green Works and they sent the replacement battery no charge. Great products and great service when needed.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bagging leaves.
on December 18, 2023
Posted by: Treebeard
Update after using bagger accessory for autumn leaf removal. Love it. Maybe not quite as thorough as a high powered leaf blower but so much easier and quieter and it gets the job done. The mower blades chop the leaves so some of the pieces fall down into the turf. I found that if there's a thick layer of leaves then running over the yard with the bagger chute removed and the mulch plate installed and then re-installing them for a second run creates a much finer mulch suitable for garden beds. It also means I only need to empty the bags twice instead of 6 times. The chute and mulch plate are easy to swap on and off with just a philips screwdriver and small pair of channel lock plyers. The two bags are easy to remove and empty. Just keep an eye on the transparent section of the chute, and as soon as you see the leaves swirling around the bags are full. If the chute does get clogged it's very easy to unhook and clean out. Also the plastic hood over the bags doesn't really need to have the strap engaged every time as it stays fully closed even when the bags get over-filled. BTW, it's probably much less effective if the leaves get wet, so I'll mow them 4 or 5 times in the fall if rain is frequently in the forecast. I still use an electric leaf blower to get them away from trees and shrubs, etc, and for cleaning off the mower before putting it away.

Dependable, cuts equal to gas mower

Purchased (on Amazon) in 2018 as replacement for gas mower. After 5 seasons more than pleased. Mower continues to run fine with no problems other than changing or sharpening blade each season. Cuts thru high grass with no issue but I would avoid cutting into very wet grass, damp is ok. This would be true for any mower. Not having gas and oil is a big plus, also the quiet. The ease of blade adjustment a real plus. Have quarter acre lawn and 4 Ah battery lasts entire cut. Because of success with this mower have purchased other Greenworks 80volt tools (trimmer, chainsaw, leaf blower, snowblower). Tip: Watch for battery sales during the year to get extras, that is the biggest cost
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

Ninja Mower

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I took the plunge about a year ago and brought home the 80V Greenworks cordless battery self-propelled lawn mower. Calling it a 'Ninja Mower' isn't an exaggeration – it sneaks around the yard almost silently, sparing my neighbors from the usual roar of traditional mowers. It's been nothing short of a backyard superhero for my knees and back. I actually look forward to getting outside and taming my lawn, which, let's be honest, sometimes resembles a mini jungle.
The quiet operation is a real hoot. I can mow at dawn or dusk without becoming the neighborhood's least favorite early bird or night owl. And those LED lights? They turn mowing into a bit of a moonlit dance, letting me navigate the yard in low to no light without turning it into a bumper cars session.
As for the battery life, it's like running a marathon and not breaking a sweat. I have a yard that's pretty expansive (you could say it's more of a small park), and I've yet to see the battery indicator even flinch. Overall, this mower hasn't just kept my yard in shape; it's kept my sense of humor about yard work intact too!

Does The Job
on September 15, 2023
Posted by: TEM3

Now that I leaves are starting to fall I figured it was finally time to assemble the bagging system onto my CrossoverT 80v lawn tractor. Assembly was fairly straight forward except connecting the lower chute to the deck opening. The two rubber with hook connectors are very hard to seat. There is an obvious slot for one but I cannot figure out where the other should hook. There is a hole in the deck that I used but it does not seem to be ideal. I may drill another hole in the lip of the deck. Anyway, my back yard with very sparce grass and a light cover of dry leaves was tackled first. The system did an excellent job. Next, my front yard with thick green grass. I tried to mow at 3" but the chute would continuously clog. After clearing it a few times I tried 3.5". The worked very well. No clogs. The only other issue is that with the bagger attached I cannot store the mower in my shed. It is now parked in the garage. Luckily there is room. I may shop for a canvas covering that will protect the mower with the bagger installed and leave it outside until I am done with mowing and leaf collection for the season.
Pros: Convenient, Effective

Efficient and Easy to Use

I purchased this mower in the spring of this year and wanted to go through a mowing season before rating it. I have a small, approximately 1/3 acre, lot but was tired of the pushing around a 21-inch mower. I can now mow my lawn much quicker, although it took a bit of adjustment to the zero turn which is a first time for me. The battery power is excellent and I can mow my property at least 3 times on a single charge with variability due to height and thickness of the lawn as this fluctuates through the season. This product has met my expectations.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe

Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, September 13, 2023
Hello JoeAR,.
We're sorry to hear that you are not fully satisfied with this lawn mower. It is important to recognize that the run time depends on the load acting against the unit and fluctuates depending on the height setting, the terrain, grass height, type of grass, whether you are mulching, operator technique, etc. - there are so many factors to consider. The harder the unit must work, the quicker the battery charge will drain. Similar to how the gas in a vehicle will deplete quicker when driving at higher speeds or carrying more weight.
Here are a few tips to extend your run time!
1) When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings.
2) Only mow 1/3 of the total grass length at a time - no more. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1 1/2 to 2” (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and between 2" to 3 1/4" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) long during hot months.
3) Mow when the grass is dry. As this is an electric unit, mowing wet/damp grass is a safety issue. However, ensuring the grass is dry will also help the grass cut cleanly and discharge appropriately. Wet/damp grass carries more weight and will mostly stick to the blade/motor shaft and will not appropriately discharge or cut easily.
4) Make sure the battery is cool before use. When the battery will not be in use, we suggest storing it indoors, in a cool dry area - away from direct sunlight. Leave the charger unplugged and the battery disconnected from the charger unless it needs charging.
5) Only use the self-propelled feature when needed. Self-propelled mowers do use more battery than standard push mowers as more power is being demanded from the battery to run the blades and the wheels.
We hope these tips will help! Should you have any further questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us on Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934. We would like the opportunity to speak with you to see if we can find a solution.
