My 5-Year Review of the lawn mower
on June 23, 2025
Posted by: arambdev

Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this mower for about 5 years now, and it’s still going strong. From the very beginning, it’s been reliable, easy to use, and surprisingly powerful for an electric mower. I really like how clean and even it cuts the grass—it’s made lawn care feel less like a chore and more like a quick, satisfying job.
The 80V brushless motor has held up better than I expected. It still has plenty of torque, and the battery life, while not what it was brand new, is more than enough for a regular-sized yard. I usually rotate between the two 2.0Ah batteries, and the rapid charger brings them back to full power pretty quickly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solid mower, but best for smaller yards
on June 4, 2025

This review is based off of a first time use on a quarter acre yard with medium length grass where I used the #4 height setting (out of 7). Mine came with a single 80v 8.0Ah battery.
Pros
- The product is easy to figure out and assemble.
- The battery charges in about an hour or so.
- Easy to change height settings and turn on (just make sure the red cap next to the battery is inserted or it will not start).
- Folds up for easy storage.
- Self propel works very well.
- Cuts the yard nicely.
- Not very loud

- Self propel works very well.

- Not very loud
Cons:
- Battery life feels mediocre. I thought I would make it through my yard on one charge, but only got about 60% through. I used the self propel feature only when going up hills and the blade height was 4 (out of 7) so it was not that low.
- The mower didn't have enough power at times and turned off occasionally while I was cutting. This happened even when I wasn't using the self propel setting and had the "Turbo" feature enabled. I was able to continue after turning it back on, but it was definitely struggling with my yard/grass.
- If you don't use the self propel feature, the mower can be somewhat heavy to push depending on your yard, grass length and strength. I'm a larger guy and would be able to mow without it, but it's definitely a workout.

Conclusion:
Solid mower for smaller yards and moderate height grass. It WILL struggle on tall/dense grass. I wouldn't recommend for yards larger than about 0.15 acre unless you have a 2nd battery on hand or don't mind recharging and doing multiple sessions. We will see how it holds up long term.

Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective

Works better than gas mower
on May 31, 2025
Posted by: Johnisme

Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as part of a combo with a trimmer and blower. It cuts as well or better than the gas mower I previously had. And it is much quieter which makes the whole experience much more pleasant. I’m able to mow my lawn (55x110 lot) on one charge 2amp. The first mow was after three weeks without a mow and it was long (and was wet) and it was able to cut through with no issues.

Solid Performance, but Battery Life Disappoints
on May 25, 2025
Posted by: Joel77

Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this Greenworks 80V combo kit delivers impressive performance. The mower cuts clean and has plenty of power, the blower is strong enough to handle heavy leaves, and the string trimmer is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Everything feels well-built and is a great value for a cordless setup.
However, the biggest downside is the battery runtime. The kit comes with two 2.0Ah batteries, which only give you around 15 minutes of use per battery on most tools—less if you’re using turbo or tackling heavier jobs. It’s really frustrating to have great tools that can’t run long enough to finish even a small yard in one go. I found myself stopping too often to recharge.
If this kit came with 4.0Ah or even 5.0Ah batteries, it would be nearly perfect. Hopefully, Greenworks considers offering that option in the future.
If you already have other 80V batteries or plan to upgrade them, this kit is a great investment. Otherwise, be prepared to either work in short bursts or purchase higher-capacity batteries separately.

Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, May 27, 2025
Hello Joel77.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the 80V combo kit. Batteries are the costliest item to manufacture and ship in any kit. Full kits including a tool, battery, and charger are priced affordably so that consumers can begin building that line of tools and move forward purchasing tool-only units. When you purchase batteries on their own, it is more notable the cost that they carry. One of the many benefits of the Greenworks 80V platform is the interchangeability of the batteries. If additional batteries are purchased in a combo pack (tool + battery) for another Greenworks 80V tool, you will have an extra battery that would provide you with the additional run time. Alternatively, additional batteries can be purchased to extend the run time. This unit is compatible with 80V Greenworks batteries (only). Should you have any further questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through chatbot on Greenworks Tools website that will direct you to a Live agent or call us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). We are here to help.

Great features, battery life, and power!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are a lot of electric mowers out there. This one has the advantage of being 80v, holding 2 batteries, and stores upright. Those were important to me. As soon as I received it, I opened it up and cut my lawn. It was a dream! Fast chargers charged the batteries quickly. It used up both of the batteries, but it lasted! Had enough power and I didn't even test out the turbo mode. Love that it gives you options for mulching and open grass discharge although I didn't use any of them. The parts feel good enough quality to last. Looking forward to yard work nowadays with these awesome tools!

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought in early winter, first time to use it in late April, 2025. Easy to start, easy to push, cut grass well, easy to adjust height of mower, very good for the environment and very quiet.
