Not Worth It
on May 27, 2024
Posted by: Anonymous
from Idaho
I’ve had this mower for almost three months now and I mow every other week. I only have .25 acres the first month I could mow the whole lawn with no issue, the second month I had to recharge one batteries to finish (three full batteries), and now I can’t even mow half of my yard with both batteries full. Not sure if I got faulty batteries but it’s ridiculous that it takes me 5 hours to mow my .25 acre lawn because I have to wait for batteries to charge.
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello SabsBurch,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We are sorry to hear that the unit has not fully met your expectations. The overall battery life is dependent on many factors such as where they have been stored, charged, and handled. When the battery will not be in use, we suggest storing it indoors, in a cool dry area - away from direct sunlight. Leave the charger unplugged and the battery disconnected from the charger unless it needs charging. It is recommended to store the battery with a full charge, and if it is being stored for a period where no use is expected, to check on the charge every couple of months. If you notice the charge has dropped, we advise charging the battery back up to full before returning it to its safe storage place. Following these steps will ensure you receive the most of the battery life. Runtimes can vary depending on a few factors, including but not limited to if the self-propel feature is used throughout the entire cut, grass texture and consistency, cutting height, and lawn size. If you wish to address your concerns directly with one of our Product Experts, please contact us by chatbot through the customer contact page located on our website on www.greenworkstools.comor call Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934. We would like the opportunity to speak with you to see whether your run time and battery life would be considered average.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously owned a corded, 120V electric Greenworks mower. It cut great, better than any gas mower i ever owned. I grew tired of dealing with the cord. I only considered Greenworks for a battery powered mower because my othe Greenworks mower was so great. Needless to sat this mower is awesome. Cuts great. I can do my entire yard with the 5ah battery. The power is not even an issue. 100% would recommend this mower.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Quiet, cuts tall, wet grass effectively (but as the instructions note, the batteries work harder under these conditions). Batteries charge faster than I would have guessed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The battery charge lasts to mow my 1/2 acre yard with charge left over. The mower cuts cleanly. No gas. No oil. No difficulty starting. I’m well pleased with this purchase.

Exceeded expectations!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this Greenworks mower 3 days ago. I am pleasantly surprised at how quickly and easily I was able to put it together. I have 1/2 acre to mow with combination flat terrain, slopes, and a hill. It was the first mow of the season and the mower plowed through tall grass (and weeds) with no issues. I used a combination of turtle and rabbit speeds and occasionally the turbo boost. I was especially appreciative that the mower self propels given the slopes and hill. I moved 1/4 acre one day and the remaining 1/4 acre the next day. The batteries made it through both days without needing recharging. (I recharged it in the evening of first day used.) Features that I didn't expect but found amazing: the ease of using batteries, the ease of starting the mower, the ability to mow high grass, the ease of changing the height of cut using just one hand, and the folding storage position. I did read all instructions thoroughly, plus several reviews, and watched a couple of You tube videos. I especially made note of warnings to pull red key and batteries before doing anything involving blade. I did this before cleaning bottom of mower off before storing it in garage. Plus I noted never use it in wet grass.
I am a 71 y/o female in good physical shape but with very limited mechanical abilities. I put the mower together and mowed 1/2 acre of challenging terrain with high grass, slopes, and a hill. I am very pleased with this mower and it definitely exceeded my expectations.
Addendum: If you have any difficulty with the online registration, try another browser. Safari didn't work for me but Chrome did.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear the run time hasn’t met your needs. Several factors can affect battery life—dense or tall grass, hilly terrain, or grass over 4 inches all require more power and can shorten run time.
For best results, we recommend raising the cutting height and trimming no more than one-third of the grass length at a time, then waiting a couple of days before cutting again. Mowing when the grass is dry and walking at a steady pace will also help the blade work more efficiently. As your lawn becomes regularly maintained, you should see both cut quality and run time improve.
For an 8,000 sq. ft. lawn, you might also consider one of our Greenworks ride-on mowers, designed for larger areas and heavier cutting needs. We offer a range of options to suit different lawn sizes and conditions, and our team is happy to help you find the right fit. You can reach us via Live Chat on our website (www.greenworkstools.com) or by phone at 1-888-909-6757.
For a home with a lawn size of 8000 sq ft, you may want to consider one of our Greenworks ride-on mowers. These units are designed for lawns that require more heavy-duty cutting needs. We have a variety of options for a range of household lawn care needs. We hope the above information has been helpful.
