[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have several 80/82V Greenworks tools including the zero turn mower, blower, chainsaw, and now the self-propelled mower. My wife loves the zero turn mower (I rarely get to use it.) and the other tools have been easy to use and dependable. The 25 in mower has helped make mowing our our sloped yard much easier. The twin blades seem to chop up the grass finer for better mulching. And of course not having to deal with gasoline and oil is a plus.
Just received this 80V 21", Cordless Battery, Self-Propelled, Lawn Mower & "What a machine!". I would recommend highly. It came with a 2A 80V battery 3/4 charged, & a 4A 80V new, uncharged which I put on the charger immediately. As I couldn't wait, I loaded the 2A battery in & installed all parts as per the manual. Starting first time was simple & "by the book". After 45 mins, I found I had cut my whole yard, using half speed & propelled power with the battery finally giving up.
Pros: Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Environmentally Safe, Powerful
First the positive points. The run time for the 25" Mower with two 4Ah batteries is excellent. The machine is powerful and cuts well. However, there are two serious flaws. The self propelled drive mechanism does not disengage when you stop. You must push machine forward to disengage, Very annoying. Second, the bag size for the 25" mower is tiny. I expected a much larger bag for a wider machine.

Hello alex_like_fresh_cut_grass, Always enjoy hearing from our customers. We greatly appreciate your feedback and are glad you had some pros and cons to share with us. We use information like this and work with the various teams within Greenworks to market, design, and sell the products our customers want and needs. We'd love to talk a little about the collection bag and self-propelled feature. Greenworks collection bag can hold up to 52 liters or 1.5 bushels (14 liquid gallons) before it needs to be emptied. The self-propelled feature is not usable in reverse. They are designed to lock when pulled back to prevent damage to the drive belt. If you are using the self-propelled feature, the mower will attempt to move forward and will be difficult to move backwards. You would have to release the self-propelled lever to pull the mower backwards while still holding onto the start lever. We hope this helps. We hope this information helps you understand our product better, and perhaps encourages you to give it a second chance!
Awesome enough to make me buy more Greenworks equipment!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this AFTER purchasing other greenworks products. I had a big tree fall earlier this year, my chainsaw would not work (again) because I am terrible at winterizing my equipment. I bought the 14" 80V chainsaw and was blown away how strong and well it worked. SO then I bought this 80V push mower and already had one battery and now I have 2, last week I bought a 80V weed eater on a sale, and now I have 3 80V batteries which is plenty to do anything with. You guys got me on the hook as a premiant customer and I will be replacing over time any gas powered equipment for the 80V line up. I LOVE it. I am a walking advertisement for you guys as I have told everyone I know about it. perfect experience so far.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my 1st battery powered mower and I could not be happier, it is much lighter than gas mowers, quieter and no noxious fumes. I recommended it to all my neighbors.
This was a great upgrade from gas mowers! No more struggles to start a mower. It doesn't break down in the middle of mowing season. My gas mowers would inevitably break down in the middle of mowing season and the wait time for a repair was three weeks. For that reason, I had two mowers. The savings in repair costs has more than made up the difference in price between this mower and a comparable gas mower. My one criticism is the side grass discharge chute. I'd rather not use the bag, so I used the chute. That required installing the plastic cover. Without it, the chute is closed and no cut grass will be ejected while mowing. If the chute cover is bumped against something, it is likely to pop off. This makes it more difficult to mow in tight spaces. I've given up on using the chute and now use the bag. I wish there were a way to open the side chute without installing the plastic cover.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this mower last fall. Never had a walk behind so easy to use and fast. It does everything they advertise and more. Loved it so much I bought the matching 60Volt edger. JUST LOVE GREENWORKS PRODUCTS!!!
