[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very skeptical of a battery powered mower taking the place of my Honda that I absolutely loved. I could not believe the way this Green Works mower went through 12+inch grass with ease, my Honda couldn't do that without bogging down and stalling. This mower has earned its spot on my trailer!
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just unpacked The lawn mower. Would have preferred Clearer instructions. The type Print is so hard to read. Cut a small portion of the lawn and it appears to be a beast I think we will be very happy together ha ha

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was able to adapt this to my LawnForce gas mower. Most side discharge covers come with a single bolt hole in the center of the mounting bracket. This was the only one I found that had two holes, and luckily, they matched the holes in my mower’s deck. It took me only 5 minutes to swap out the broken one for the new one. Highly recommend.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Durable

Years or research before buying led me to purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me start by saying I’m a tough critic. I owned and operated a commercial lawn service in Florida for many years, and over that time I’ve owned dozens of mowers across many brands. I’ve put equipment through serious “torture tests,” so I can confidently say this is a thorough, experience-based review of the mower I chose for my own property.
I never really considered electric mowers for commercial use, so I didn’t have any firsthand experience with them in that setting. However, after selling my lawn company in 2020—and having a long-standing interest in battery technology—I always thought I might eventually make the switch. I just could never justify the cost… until my family and I purchased 5.5 acres in Southwest Florida.
I bought this Greenworks mower specifically to handle that 5.5-acre property. As many people know, the turf here is primarily St. Augustine and Bahia grass, which can be thick, dense, and challenging to cut.
During the first few mows, I ran both the blade speed and drive speed on high. In that configuration, the battery didn’t quite last through the entire job, which was a bit disappointing—especially since some reviews claim it can handle up to 5 acres on a single charge. That said, it wasn’t a dealbreaker; it gave me time to switch over and do some weed eating while the batteries charged.
I then experimented by lowering the blade speed, and to my surprise, it made a big difference in runtime without sacrificing cut quality. The mower still delivers a clean, even cut with very few stragglers. With the blade speed set lower, I’m now able to cover about 5 of the 5.5 acres on a single charge, which is a significant improvement.
Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the cut quality and performance.
That said, there are a couple of drawbacks worth noting. One is traction: despite having fairly aggressive tires, they tend to lose grip quickly, especially on steeper inclines. Because there’s no heavy engine weight over the rear wheels like on traditional gas mowers, you’ll notice some slipping when climbing hills.
Another issue is the charger—it continuously runs its cooling fan, even when the batteries are fully charged and not actively charging. To work around this, I added a tiered power strip with a timer function. I set it to shut off after about 4 hours, which gives the batteries enough time to fully charge after being drained, then powers down the charger between uses. Since I only mow once a week, this has been an effective and simple solution.

Overall Im extremely satisfied with this mower. No fuel, no oil no hydraulic oil or maintenance that cmsih the a mower. just get on and go any time. Also with my AirPods on I can talk on the phone while mowing and cutting with zero noise heard from the other end of the phone call. Simply amazing to multitask as I used to have to constantly shut the mower to take calls.
