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!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of power, great mowing experience. I just wonder how long the battery will last in years. Plenty of power on I’ve battery to do my typical residential front and back yard lawn. Happy so far.

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.

Ninja Mower

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I took the plunge about a year ago and brought home the 80V Greenworks cordless battery self-propelled lawn mower. Calling it a 'Ninja Mower' isn't an exaggeration – it sneaks around the yard almost silently, sparing my neighbors from the usual roar of traditional mowers. It's been nothing short of a backyard superhero for my knees and back. I actually look forward to getting outside and taming my lawn, which, let's be honest, sometimes resembles a mini jungle.
The quiet operation is a real hoot. I can mow at dawn or dusk without becoming the neighborhood's least favorite early bird or night owl. And those LED lights? They turn mowing into a bit of a moonlit dance, letting me navigate the yard in low to no light without turning it into a bumper cars session.
As for the battery life, it's like running a marathon and not breaking a sweat. I have a yard that's pretty expansive (you could say it's more of a small park), and I've yet to see the battery indicator even flinch. Overall, this mower hasn't just kept my yard in shape; it's kept my sense of humor about yard work intact too!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Posted by: JoeRob
from Spokane wa
Does an ok job on medium to thin grss but if your law is thinck like mine you HAVE to walk slow otherwize it bogs down plus you wil have to stop to clean it out. I have medium size yard and now that it is thick, I have to stop t 3 to 4 tie sto clean out the mower. Very concerned that soon I will see smoke comming from the motor. An expensive mistake.
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, September 13, 2023
Hello JoeAR,.
We're sorry to hear that you are not fully satisfied with this lawn mower. It is important to recognize that the run time depends on the load acting against the unit and fluctuates depending on the height setting, the terrain, grass height, type of grass, whether you are mulching, operator technique, etc. - there are so many factors to consider. The harder the unit must work, the quicker the battery charge will drain. Similar to how the gas in a vehicle will deplete quicker when driving at higher speeds or carrying more weight.
Here are a few tips to extend your run time!
1) When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order 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.
5) Only use the self-propelled feature when needed. Self-propelled mowers do use more battery than standard push mowers as more power is being demanded from the battery to run the blades and the wheels.
We hope these tips will help! 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 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.

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.
