[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought about a month ago and have used it twice to mow about 1/3 acre. I charge it the night before and am able to mow the whole yard effortlessly in one go. The bunny speed settings is pretty dang fast as well. Love the multiple height settings and ability to fold the mower up for storage! I’m excited to keep using it and say for now it’s performing well beyond expectations!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great All Around Mower

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical of purchasing a battery powered mower. However, it has proven to be everything I hoped for and more.
The battery has more than enough capacity to complete mowing my entire lawn. I'm pleasantly surprised at how quickly the battery will recharge. I have St. Augustine grass which can grow quickly and very thick. The mower automatically jumps to turbo for the heaviest sections.
The mower is much lighter than a comparable gas mower so it mows with less effort. However, the self-propulsion is there for the hardest tasks.
I use the rear bagger since St. Augustine grass is so thick and does a great job.
Highly recommended

Hello Big Green.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear you are enjoying the performance, cut quality, and quieter operation of the 80V 21" Self-Propelled Lawn Mower (LM2138S). We understand your concern about long-term battery performance, as runtime and battery lifespan are important factors for overall satisfaction. Battery longevity can vary depending on usage conditions such as grass thickness, cutting height, and terrain, but maintaining best practices, like avoiding full depletion, storing the battery in a cool, dry place, and charging it after each use, can help extend its overall life. For optimal runtime, mowing regularly and not removing more than one-third of the grass blade at a time can also reduce strain on the battery. You may also find it helpful to review official Greenworks instructional videos on the Greenworks Tools YouTube channel for battery care and mower operation tips, including this video on tips for storing your Greenworks battery (https://www.youtube.com/shorts/q-ITYPs3yBo?feature=share). If you notice any significant decline in performance over time, we recommend reaching out to Greenworks success team so they can review your battery and provide assistance if needed. They can be reached either using the online chat function, on Greenworks Tools page, or by calling 1-888-909-6757.

Looking good

Gender:Female
Purchased in April 2026 and so far has been excellent doing the areas around my house. I am a 74 yo female and own a bit under 3 acres so this is augmenting my rider mower.
Definitely was easy to put together once delivered and have found it easy to handle even on the slight slopes and around my trees.
Battery life is decent .. though will probable purchase a second since i do need to recharge .... which is done in less than 45 min. to finish up.
Stores easily once folded ..... I don't uses the bag so use the side discharge for mulching ....I am consistent in cleaning the under carriage after each use ....
Will see the durability and longevity

Who needs Gas? NOT ME !!!

I purchased the lawn mower after owning the a previous model. I was going to just get the previous model again. However, I saw this had the dual batter option, and that is what sold me. I live on over 1.5 acres so we have some land. Unfortunately, we had a lot of rain when our old mower stopped working. So when we got this we put it right to use. In a few lower areas of grass I got over 90 minutes run time on the 2 batteries. As impressed with the first one we had I was that impressed all over.

Verified Purchase:Yes
We live in the mountains with a hillside in our backyard. Our first mower did a fine job on flat terrain, but I had to push it up the hill. We searched for a high quality, self-propelled mower and decided on Greenworks 80-volt. It has all the features we were looking for. Now it mows the hillside with ease, as I am able to hold the controls with one hand and walk comfortably along behind. It is now a "piece of cake" to mow! No sweat, literally.

Broke within 6 months

My father purchased this for me when I purchased my first home, and it was working great, until, during my last mow of the season, it would not turn on anymore. I did the troubleshooting so I assume it is an issue with the start handle, but I have been unable to reach their customer service team.
Pros: Quiet
