Very surprised by this lawn mower. Cuts well, its light weight and it will push itself uphill. The bagger function works great. It is very easy to adjust the height setting and stores upright. I am very pleased with this mower.
I have a large corner lot and the battery lasted with 1 bar remaining. It cut smooth and was super easy to maneuver. I have st augustine grass and it had not problem cutting it. I am happy with my purchase so far.
The Pro 60V Cordless 17" Lawn Mower was easy to assemble. I charged the battery as was directed with the instructions. I mowed my lawn the next day. I was able to adjust the height effortlessly, which made the job so easy. The quietness of the lawnmower was also very nice surprise.
I read reviews that this mower with 5.0 60v would cut approx 1/4 acre. This battery only last 25 min and only cut about 1/8 acre. Works well for very small jobs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Bobby,
It is unfortunate to hear that the run time is unsatisfactory. The run time of a lawnmower is dependent 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, using self-propelled function etc - there are so many factors to consider. The run-time of a battery would depend on the load acting on the unit while in use (speed, terrain, unit height, grass height, and density). Please be aware that the more power being used from the lawn mower (i.e. lawn mower speed, terrain, grass height, density, etc.), the faster the battery charge will drain. Here are a few tips to help you extend the run time. 1) Set the mower to the highest cutting height (or 1/3 of the length of grass), mow no more than 1/3 of the total length at a time. 2) Mow in the morning or late afternoon to reduce the heat stress on newly cut grass and ensure that grass is dry. Lastly, when the battery is placed in the charger the charger detects the temperature of the battery and will begin charging once it cools down slightly to charge. This is normal operation based on the protection system in the charger. All is operating as intended. We hope these tips will help you with the issue you have encountered, however, if they do not please kindly contact us at 1-855-345-3934 or by email on info@greenworkstools.com. We would be happy to look into this for you.
Needed something light to cut drop off near the street. This was perfect. Wide enough, and light enough. With plenty of power. Makes fast work of area I would normally have to cut with weed eater. Very Happy with this machine. When it becomes necessary to replace my chainsaw, or my weed eater. I will be replacing them with Green Works 60 volt.
