Just unboxed the mower today, charged battery and immediately jumped on the front yard to give it a test (St Augustine grass), what an awesome experience it was, neighbor even came out and said he saw me walking with the mower but couldn't hear anything, he too was impressed, being 63 years old and for me to be able to adjust the walking speed is worth the price alone, lightweight and powerful is what I recommend to others, I never had to hit the Turbo button (probably should have just to see the difference), i picked this mower because I've had so much success with the Greenworks blower..
I just purchased this 80v 21 Cordless Self Propelled Lawnmower on March 24, 2023,(brushless Motor version) and only used it once (to cut my 0-1/4 acres yard), and just like the vast majority of UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS with the operational performance of this Greenworks lawnmower it SHUTS OFF REPEATEDLY, and the Self-Propelled feature quit working. Buyers, PLEASE BEWARE!!! THE POOR OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS GREENWORKS LAWN MOWER ARE TRUE AND ACCURATE!!!
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The GW 21" Pro 80V is my first electric mower after decades of gas powered tools, and I am a convert!! First, as a mower, it has great features like the wide range of cutting height, multi-speed propel, etc. The handle grip and angles are very comfortable and also help move, turn, and manipulate the mower in a comfortable manner. And one of my favorite features is how compactly it stores in the upright position, minimizing the footprint in my storage area - super clever!
The battery system does not disappoint. The 80V batteries have a great long life and recharge quicker than I expected - so much so that I can get the whole yard done and not have to stop to wait for batteries to finish recharging. That was one of my biggest concerns of converting to battery powered, would be needing a lot of batteries to get all the work done. Not a problem at all with the high amp/hour 80V batteries! And the batteries are so quick to change and swap, it couldn't be any easier - great job GW!
My wife even likes the new mower - because it's so much quieter than our old gas mowers! She used to avoid being outside while I was mowing, but she was really surprised with the much lower volume of the mower - and if she's happy, I'm happy!
Missing one of the upper handle knob/bolts. How do I get a replacement?
I would recommend this to a friend!

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

I have a small level backyard lawn (~40'x60') plus a super small front lawn. I get 2 weeks of double cutting out of a charge. So nice to have a lightweight unit I can literally fold and hang on the wall.
I bought this after my lawn guy quit and I couldn’t find a comparable replacement. I wanted a mower that was easy to use, low maintenance, and durable. So fat this meets my needs and I’m a widow in her 60s.
Gets the job done. The white grass catcher may not have been the best color idea considering it’s going over the lawn frequently. I’ll need to replace soon because it’s dirty—more brown than white.
