[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very easy to set up out of the box. Love the 1 lever height adjustment - Adjustable handlebars I’ve never had on any of the many lawnmowers I’ve owned. Will revisit review after I’ve used it since it is raining for the next few days.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This will be the 4th season for this mower . It is used mostly on a slope , too steep for the rider . Has worked trouble free . Even through thick grass it handles it well . Batteries are still going strong . Need to clear exhaust chute in heavy cuts to keep from over taxing the battery , but is to be expected . Was unsure when purchased if this unit would be able to do the task . After using , I am quite pleased with its performance .
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bagger is a clamshell design, opening at the bottom. This means, when opening, the bagger dumps the clippings on the ground wherever the mower is stopped. The user than has to shovel them into bags, on to his compost pile, or wherever they are to go. Most mowers blow the clippings into mesh bags hanging under the catcher for much more convenient disposal.
A second problem is the chute leading from the cutting deck to the catcher. Typically chutes are like pipes leading from the deck to the bagger. This chute has several side openings so most of the flow goes out the bottom rear of the mower with only a fraction of the clippings ending up in the bag.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unbelievably Impressive: The Greenworks 80V MaximusZ - A Month of Pure Mowing Bliss! After a little over a month of putting the Greenworks 80V MaximusZ zero-turn mower through its paces, I can confidently say this machine has completely exceeded my expectations. Stepping into the world of electric mowers, I was cautiously optimistic, but the MaximusZ has delivered on every front and then some. First and foremost, the build quality is outstanding. This mower feels incredibly robust and well-engineered. From the sturdy frame to the heavy-duty cutting deck, every component exudes durability and gives me the confidence that this is a machine built to last. The most crucial aspect of any mower, the cut quality, is simply excellent. My lawn has never looked better. The blades slice through grass cleanly and evenly, leaving behind a beautifully manicured finish. Even in thicker patches, the MaximusZ never bogs down, maintaining consistent blade speed and a flawless cut. This is a significant improvement over previous mowers I've owned, which would often struggle in denser areas. One minor point I'd mention is the included battery kit. While the 4 Ah batteries provide ample runtime for my average-sized yard, I would have loved to see an option for an 8 Ah kit. For larger properties or extended mowing sessions, the extra capacity would be a welcome addition. However, the quick charging time of the included batteries does mitigate this slightly. Now, let's talk about some of the standout features that truly set the MaximusZ apart. The dump truck/trunk function is genuinely unique and incredibly useful. I've already used it countless times for hauling mulch, yard waste, and even tools around my property. It's a game-changer in terms of convenience and versatility. Another pleasant surprise has been the bodyweight adjustable seat. Compared to my other zero-turn mowers, the comfort level on the MaximusZ, especially when traversing rougher terrain, is significantly better. The ability to fine-tune the suspension makes a noticeable difference in reducing bumps and vibrations, leading to a much less fatiguing mowing experience. Finally, I have to admit, the vibrant green color and the integrated LEDs are undeniably cool. While not essential for performance, they add a touch of modern aesthetics and improve visibility during early morning or late evening mowing. In conclusion, the Greenworks 80V MaximusZ has proven to be an exceptional zero-turn mower. Its impressive build quality, outstanding cut, innovative features like the dump truck/trunk, and comfortable ride make it a joy to use. While a higher capacity battery option would be appreciated, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise fantastic machine. If you're looking to upgrade to a powerful, efficient, and feature-rich electric zero-turn, the Greenworks 80V MaximusZ deserves a serious look. I wholeheartedly recommend it!
