[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this mower, as well as the weed eater, leaf blower, and drill and driver set I bought all at the same time. Plenty of battery life to get my half acre looking great, and plenty of power as well. Would buy these again in a heartbeat.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It mows dry grass well if the blades are sharp. It doesn’t mulch well. It tends to leave clumps if the grass is moist at all. Overall, disappointed with this purchase.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Meh2024. Lawn mowers mulch grass by lifting the grass clippings into the deck and cutting them into fine pieces before they drop back into the ground, because they need to be cut many more times than they do for bagging and side discharge, airflow is critical to the process. In general, try to mulch when you are taking off no more than 2 inches of grass for the best results. That lets the blade speed stay up on just about battery-powered mower and get those fine pieces that send nutrients back into your lawn. You will typically get much better mulching results if you can cut when your grass is dry. That leaves the clippings lighter, so they stay up in the deck longer and do not stick to the sides. Mulching grass when it is wet means the blade can’t cut the clippings as small before they drop out. And the wetter the grass, the more challenging it becomes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very pleased with the 25 in self propelled mower. Only gave it 4 stars due to not mulching heavy, thick grass. It does function very well and the batteries last the whole job.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love this mower. Together our two 80V batteries allow for 30-40 minutes of mowing time before recharging. The mower cuts grass quickly and evenly. Our only complaints are the plastic levers on the handles seem a bit flimsy and the protective flap on the back sometimes makes it hard to pull the mower backwards. The wheels can lock up, but pushing forward and then pulling back again usually clears it up.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 3 months ago, here is my observations; the mower itself is strong, not gas strong but does the trick, there is some learning curve and some lag between pressing the forward handle and the response of the mower but nothing major. I got this for my brother who is not into maintenance. so this is perfect. no oil or filters to change. charge and play.
I have had this mower for three years. Observations: Good construction. Decent power but will overheat and shutdown when mowing high grass. Very irregular cut that I attribute to poor lift of mower blades. Many bent grass blades remain uncut meaning I must cut some areas twice to get the grass level even. This is particularly true in areas where grass has been pushed down by wheels or center path area where blades should overlap, but do not. Blades do not hold sharpness well. Be prepared to have two sets or sharpen frequently. This is an ok mower, but I wish I had purchased a different battery driven mower or Honda gas mower.
Pros: Easy to Use

Hello Docboss302. Thank you for your review. Your honest input is appreciated as we are always looking for areas to further improve our products to ensure our customers are completely satisfied. We read your review and wanted to thank you for both the detail and the feedback you have provided. We will be sure to share it internally. If you don’t let the grass, get too high, you’ll be in good shape as far as getting an even cut. However, if you’ve let the grass get long, you’ll likely need to make a few passes for it to look even. One of the ways it’s able to provide a consistent cut is its sensory technology. This technology senses how tough or high the grass is and adjusts the power output accordingly. So, if you’re going over a flat area with low grass, it won’t put out as much in the way of RPMs, and if it hits a tougher spot, it ramps up the power to keep up. When to sharpen lawn mower blades, factors such as how much use, what type of grass you are cutting, the length of grass you are cutting, soil conditions, and other factors will determine how often you will need to sharpen your lawn mower blades. Greenworks blades have a protective coating on them, which makes them seem dull, but the coating wears off after a couple of minutes of use, and the steel underneath is quite sharp. Typically, we suggest sharpening or replacing at least once per season. We hope these suggestions helps. Should you have any questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through Live Chat on www.greenworkstools.com or call 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). We are here to help.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Run time on single charge was advertised as 75 minutes which was not entirely true. My mower stopped after 45 minutes and then I have charged the batteries and finish cutting the lawn. Mower looks nice and when mowing it is quite.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first electric mower. I am really impressed with power of this mower! The 4ah battery is just enough to finish our 1/4 acre yard. Sometimes I run out just before I finish if the grass is a bit longer. I love the single lever raise/lower function. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the mulching insert does not sit tightly in the chute so the chute fills with grass clipping. When I fold the lawnmower up, it dumps grass all over the garage or driveway.
