[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this mower after great frustration trying to repair a Ryobi push lawn mower's height adjustment lever that led to cascading problems making it inoperable. This mower FAR exceeds the Ryobi's performance and features. Comfortable grips, straightforward assembly and operation with great cutting ability. I appreciate the fan cooled double battery charger.
Do not buy !!! Battery dies quick worse purchase possible
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Ayat. We are sorry to hear the running time has not met your expectations, that can be frustrating, especially with a combo kit. With the 48V (2x24V) system, performance is closely tied to setup and operating conditions, so a few checks may help improve battery life. First, make sure both batteries are fully charged and installed together, as the mower requires both to operate at full power. Grass conditions also play a big role, cutting very thick, wet, or overgrown grass, or mowing on a lower deck height, will increase load and drain the batteries faster, so raising the deck height and mowing in drier conditions can help extend runtime. It is also a good idea to keep the blade sharp and the underside of the deck clean, as buildup can create extra resistance. For the trimmer and blower, using lower speed settings when possible can significantly improve battery efficiency. Additionally, allow batteries to cool before recharging and avoid storing them fully depleted, as that can impact long-term performance. If the running time still seems unusually short after these checks, it may be worth testing each battery individually (if applicable) or reaching out to support to ensure everything is functioning as expected. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were able to drop our lawn service, and the Greenworks bundle has worked out great! We get the yard done in about an hour, and it's never looked better. I've purchased additional battery packs and a dual charger so I never run out of juice!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time to own these mow, trimmer and blower bundle and so far it helps me keep and maintain my lawn. I really hope ut will last.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a first-time home buyer and needed something easy and affordable for my smaller yard. This is the perfect combo package with everything I need. Quick to set up and works great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good Power for a small mower, was able to go thru heavy grass without issue. Like that it can Collect grass, side discharge, or mulch. Like that I can charge batteries inside while storing mover in shed
Used it twice, wasn’t able to finish mowing the front yard. Battery dies in less than 15 minutes.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Ssoo, Thanks for sharing your experience. Runtime that short is definitely frustrating, especially with a combo kit like this. For the 48V (24V x2) 17" mower in model CK24L4222, the mower relies on both 24V batteries working together, so performance can drop quickly if one battery is undercharged, out of balance, or not fully seated. A few things to check: make sure both 4.0Ah batteries are fully charged, cooled, and inserted securely before use, as the system will only perform as well as the weaker battery. If the grass is thick, wet, or overgrown, that can significantly increase power draw, try raising the deck height for the first pass and lowering it gradually to reduce load. Also, avoid running at maximum load continuously and check that the blade is sharp and the underside of the deck is clean, since buildup can reduce efficiency and shorten runtime. It can also help to rotate the batteries between tools and note if one drains faster than the other, which may indicate a battery imbalance. If you are consistently getting under 15 minutes in normal, dry mowing conditions after these steps, there may be an issue with one of the batteries, and reaching out to support would be the best next step for further evaluation. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.
