I purchased this mower in Mar '22 to replace a 22" gas-powered self-propelled push mower. This mower was so surprisingly lightweight that it reminded me of a child's toy. However, it quickly moved through 6" grass in mulch mode that would have choked the gas mower in discharge mode. It was so easy to push that I do not miss the self-propelled feature. It did such a good job mulching that few of the cuttings were still visible. I'll probably never use the bag. I can easily pick the mower up with one hand. It takes up little room with the push bar folded down. The leaf blower was a bonus. It is lightweight and easy to use. It was fine for the patio and driveway, but has not been used on the yard. It remains to be seen about durability and lifespan of the equipment and batteries.
This is my first battery powered mower. I was a little concerned it would not have the power and cutting ability of my gas powered mowers. There was zero reason for concern. This mower has great power and provides a great cut! I’m happier than I probably should be about a lawn mower.
This is the 2nd trimmer I've purchased - the first one (I thought was single string, it was a duel. Guess it was my error. The 2nd one I just received on the 15th.) Just began to edge and the string was gone? Tried to get it to feed per instruction book - nothing. I am a 75 year old female and have been dragging a corded trimmer around. Thought how nice and easy this would be! Wrong! I couldn ' t get the spool lid off, my 78 year old dis-abled husband helped, got the line back out. Five minutes using it the same thing happened.
I have a Greenworks mower and blower that I love, so figured the string trimmer would be great too!
Definitely not happy and do not recommend it.

Hello Bobbye,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate you taking a moment to share your experience and we are sorry to hear of the troubles you are experiencing. If the string is not feeding this could indicate that there is not enough line or a tangle on the spool. Please remove the battery, remove the spool cover and spool, unwind the spool and rewind, ensuring that the line is not tangled. To advance the line, stop and restart the trimmer. Upon starting, the line will automatically advance 1/4" (6.4 mm). Each time you want to advance the line you must release the trigger for about two seconds and upon starting line should advance. Should you still require further assistance, we would be interested in hearing more about this issue. Please contact Greenworks customer care at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). All we ask that you have access to the unit so that we can complete troubleshooting with you and gather necessary unit information.
I bought this mover couple of days back, fully charged the batteries upon arrival until charger shows the solid green, however, when I installed the batteries in the mover and tried to start the mover, it tried to crank but, never start. I tried charging the batteries again but, still the same issue.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The lawn mower runs well and cuts well in tight spaces around landscaping as I hoped. The main issue is the frail feeling construction-particularly the wheels which makes mobility over bumpy areas tricky, and some of the cheaper construction components makes me concerned about long term reliability. Still, you get the quality of battery and cut expected from the brand which is great! The drill is a great plus and I consider it the best of the three cordless drills I have due to being brushless and 24v vs 20v which is common in other competitor products.
I would recommend this to a friend!
