I’ve never had a electric(battery) powered mower before, however, after purchasing this I was pleasantly surprised at how well it performed, it did as well as any gas mower I have owned in the past, no problem doing the entire lawn on 1 charge, I am very happy with this purchase so far and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it
Purchased 2 weeks ago. Once I tried the lawn. My question is about the Batteries. even after 20 hours+ of charging, the green light on the charger was still on. I was watching to see the light go off or making another color to show its fully charged.
I have a large yard, just shy of 1 acre. The batteries that came with the mower complete the yard! And my neighbors all comment how nicely it cuts and how quiet it is. I enjoy the self-propelled that is easy to turn on and off for the hills that I have.
So much easier than traditional lawn mower. I love how light it is and the options for a pretty high cut. Its so easy to turn and push that it really makes lawn cutting a breeze. Quick easy start and so quiet, you can actually hear when someone is approaching you. I have about quarter acre (2 tennis courts) of lawn to mow and have had no problems finishing long before battery runs out. I haven't had any problems with starting the lawn mower. I do tend to make sure batteries fully charged before i start.
My only downside is that not all tools use same batteries or same charger. So we have multiple chargers set up to handle each tools separate battery.
In early June I bought my mom a Greenworks 80V lawnmower. I was so impressed with how it starts and how well it cuts that I bought another Greenworks lawnmower for me, and I really didn't need one. I added the self-proprelled option. I am sold on battery lawn mowers.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello VermontMim,
Thank you for choosing Greenworks Tools for your lawn care needs! Happy to hear you and your mom are enjoying the lawn mower! We would love to offer some tips to help care for the tool and accessories. For best storage practice the lawn mower should be stored somewhere dry and protected from the elements, such as a garage or shed. If you have no other choice but to store it outside, keep it elevated above the ground and covered with a durable tarp. When the battery will not be in use, store 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. Store the battery with a full charge, and if it is being stored for a period where no use is expected, check on the charge every couple of months. If you notice the charge has dropped, we recommend 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. If it ends up that you are having an issue with the lawn mower, please contact Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934, and we would be happy to assist you further in remedying an issues. Thank you for your feedback!
