I wanted a mower that was reliable and that if service was warranted it could be done locally. After reading the reviews and on a recommendation of a local dealer that would be starting to sell Greenworks I purchased this mower. I have used it once and it has exceeded my expectations. I cut a newly seeded 1/3 acre lot of thick weed stalks and it did a superb job with only one recharge. I am very happy with my decision on purchasing this mower.
The thing can be an animal. It's capable of dragging you behind it the battery lasted for an hour with only one bar used! The purchase was the correct one for my lawn. I used it as a mulcher will use the bag next time and see the result.
We live in the mountains with a hillside in our backyard. Our first mower did a fine job on flat terrain, but I had to push it up the hill. We searched for a high quality, self-propelled mower and decided on Greenworks 80-volt. It has all the features we were looking for. Now it mows the hillside with ease, as I am able to hold the controls with one hand and walk comfortably along behind. It is now a "piece of cake" to mow! No sweat, literally.
Excellent machine. Doesn't cut as good as a gasoline mower does, but I would say it definitely cuts in the 90 percentile compared to a gasoline engine.
