Consider a second battery
on March 29, 2024
Posted by: Lazy bro
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I went with the most powerful. I'm glad I did. I only mow every other week. This baby shredded through weeds and grass without stalling. Battery died before completing little more than .25 acre. I like to mulch maybe we battery died. This is more powerful than my gas lawnmower that won't start. I need a second battery for my yard.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lawn mower Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 1 year plus ago and it works so well that i have now bought a 80v leaf blower and the string trimer. All work great and all use the same batteries. I now have two chargers and two batteries and all work great. One battery quit and I called green Works and they sent the replacement battery no charge. Great products and great service when needed.

Dependable, cuts equal to gas mower
on December 2, 2023

Purchased (on Amazon) in 2018 as replacement for gas mower. After 5 seasons more than pleased. Mower continues to run fine with no problems other than changing or sharpening blade each season. Cuts thru high grass with no issue but I would avoid cutting into very wet grass, damp is ok. This would be true for any mower. Not having gas and oil is a big plus, also the quiet. The ease of blade adjustment a real plus. Have quarter acre lawn and 4 Ah battery lasts entire cut. Because of success with this mower have purchased other Greenworks 80volt tools (trimmer, chainsaw, leaf blower, snowblower). Tip: Watch for battery sales during the year to get extras, that is the biggest cost
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

Not perfect, but still great
on September 4, 2023

So this is probably the best battery-powered lawn mower one can buy today: it cuts through thick grass, would strongly recommend the 80V battery for larger yards. However, the unit is pretty heavy for a push mower so if you need to use it on slopes, it may be a challenge. The side piece that directs the mulch comes off very easily, which is also not good.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really like this mower
on July 29, 2023
Posted by: Tryxtan

I really like not having to worry about getting gasoline for this mower. It's quieter than my old mower, too. I just wish I hadn't lost the mulch plug and the side discharge chute. I think they went bye-bye with the box. I can't find these parts anywhere to replace them, either.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Effective, Powerful

Very light-duty grass only
on July 28, 2023
Posted by: turfted
from atlanta, ga
very disappointed with this machine. what I did in 30 minutes with a gas mower takes me 2 days! with this machine, and its still not 100% done. I bought an extra battery and it is still very disappointing how weak the motor is. It shuts down and kills battery at the slightest hiccup
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, July 31, 2023
Hello turfted,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the run time of this battery when used in this lawn mower.
It is important to adjust your mowing techniques to make the most out of the battery life but it goes without saying that that the harder the unit works, the quicker the battery drains.
Here are a few mowing tips to help achieve the optimal run time.
1) When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings.
2) Only mow 1/3 of the total grass length at a time - no more. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1 1/2 to 2” (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and between 2" to 3 1/4" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) long during hot months.
3) Mow when the grass is dry. As this is an electric unit, mowing wet/damp grass is a safety issue. However, ensuring the grass is dry will also help the grass cut cleanly and discharge appropriately. Wet/damp grass carries more weight and will mostly stick to the blade/motor shaft and will not appropriately discharge or cut easily.
4) Make sure the battery is cool before use. 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.
We hope these tips will help! If not, we would be happy to investigate to see whether your run time would be considered average; please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us on Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934. We would like the opportunity to speak with you to see if we can find a solution. All we ask that you have access to the unit so that we can complete troubleshooting with you and gather necessary unit information.

Best purchase ever
on June 30, 2023
Posted by: TGram
from Maryland
I bought this a few years back. It is so easy to use. Put the battery in and go! No exhaust, no pull cord, adjustable cut lengths with a pull of a lever, maximum grass cutting width. It even stands up to take less room in my shed. Great product!
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable

on June 16, 2023
Posted by: Joe09
from SPokane WA
CHap mower at a high price. Mine came wiht loos bolts, it clunk, creeks,..... Its cutting ablity is low end,... Yes, very true. I find I have to go over areas twice! Grass is not tall. It doesnto cut well. My 12 year old Honda does a much better job at mulching plus NO CREEKS OR CLUNGS! As for the deck, old desgin style that does not cleanout well, low vacuum,.... it WILL rust out! Why not a compsite deck GW? Why such and old style deck? Just don't buy.
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Joe09,
Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback as we are always looking for areas to improve!
The deck is forged with heavy-duty steel, for strength and durability. A stamped deck means that the deck has been stamped out of a single piece of steel versus a fabricated deck that has been welded together. Stamped decks often have a better airflow and are more flexible in their capabilities. We'd love to share some a tip to care for the deck, we do not recommend using water to clean the lawn mower but use a scraper to get rid of the grass, and then you can use a damp cloth to wipe off and loose pieces. Finish by wiping with a dry cloth and spraying lightly with a silicone spray or lawn mower deck spray.
At Greenworks we stand behind each product we manufacture. This lawn mower carries a 4-year warranty from the date of purchase.
Should you have any further questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us at Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.
