This is our 4th Greenworks tool and just like all the others it delivers above and beyond all expectations. Only downside is the cheep string it comes with.
OK Mower, Not a Great Mower. Completes the Job. Run time is about 30 Minutes with two batteries. The Sound of this mower is Loud. I thought electric will be silent. I never used Gas Mower. I can't compare it with Gas Mower. But sound is Horrible. Deck accumulates the grass mulch badly. Deck Design should have been better to avoid grass mulch accumulation on the deck. Battery Area/Space also accumulates dirt/grass which might effect the battery performance in long term. Wiring should have been included inside the handle, instead of hanging out. Very difficult to cut the edges. Easy to maneuver when Self propelled is activated. But speed control is not Good. It will be too slow or speed, can't get the appropriate speed set. Little frustrated with that while mowing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

First, the good news: the mower is fairly quiet and lightweight, so it's easy to work with. The bad news is that the battery performance is terrible. My lawn is about a half acre and it takes three charges to mow it, which wouldn't be so bad if it didn't take almost two hours to fully charge them. The description says that the batteries take 40 minutes to charge, which isn't even close to the actual time. Because of this, completing a job that would take an hour with a gas mower takes five hours with this one. And, yes, I mow when the grass is dry, rarely use the self propelled feature (why did I pay for it if I shouldn't use it?) and keep the cut length set to high. Really disappointed in this product.

This will complete our mowing requirements. We have greenworks 48v battery operated mower and we are completely satisfied with that product. With that confidence we bought this blower. As of now there are no issues with this item
