Hello Mower man 1235789.
Thank you for the feedback. Electric mowers offer a convenient and environmentally friendly alternative to gas mowers, especially for smaller yards or those who prioritize ease of use and low maintenance. However, for large yards or those with very thick grass, you may want to consider one of our Greenworks ride-on mowers. These units are designed for lawns that require more heavy-duty cutting needs. We have a variety of options for a range of household lawncare needs. We hope the above information has been helpful. If you would like more details on what units may be best suited for your needs, please contact us through Live chat direct on our site or by phone at 1-888-909-6757. We are here to help.

Nice and quiet, but will take time to get used to

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used once so far, so this is my initial impressions.
Quick start guide wasn't as clear as I would like, but I figured out most everything without going to the owners manual. Didn't realize that the ignition plug had to be installed to run at first.
The handle to engage the self-drive feel a little flimsy, not sure how long they will last.
There is a little delay after pulling the lever for the self-drive for it to engaged which took me a little while to get used to. Runs quiet although I thought it would be even quieter than it was. Cuts the grass fine, and I like that the speed can be adjusted.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 80 volt model has the big wheels in the back, therefore it turns quite esily. Not loud, does not require hearing protectors. The battery life is quite doableand with 2 batteries you are never without power...
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am happy with how easy it is to use. The battery goes in easily and the self-propel feature keeps me from struggling with push it over rough areas or tall grass.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Severely underpowered for regular lawn
on May 18, 2025

I bought this mower about a month ago, decided to diy the grass cutting this year. I have a regular lawn that’s quite large, (over 0.5 acre) and the lawn is regularly fertilized. This mower is not keeping up even if I cut the lawn every week. When I set the height to 4, it barely works, but when the height is set to 3, the mower struggles a lot and frequently stops because it gets jammed up with grass. The problem is the design, the edge of the blade is too thick and too far from to the cutting deck.
The mulching attachment is a nonstarter on this product. With mulching attachment, the mower jams about every 3-4 feet.
With the bagging option, you’ll have to empty the bag every 2-3 mins, otherwise it’ll jam up too. Again I’m cutting the lawn weekly and this is not even keeping up. The included 4Ah battery can barely keep cutting 2000-3000 sqft at best.
If the motor had another 5-10 horse power, I’m sure it would’ve been a different story. Unfortunately this mower is just too underpowered and overall a poor design. Other reviewers have pointed out other flaws, like plastic gear that have no replacement parts etc as well.
Had I read more reviews in advance, I would’ve avoided this mower.

We are sorry to hear that you do not recommend this product. Many We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the time you are getting from your Greenworks 80v self-propelled mower. Runtimes and area coverage can vary depending on several factors. Grass height, grass type, mulching, and operators’ technique etc. Uneven ground, trees, bushes, and other obstacles on your lawn can significantly decrease the amount of area you can mow effectively with each pass. Your mowing pattern and technique can also impact on how much area you can cover each time. If your lawn has significant challenges, you might need a mower with features better suited for your specific conditions, like a zero-turn mower for tight maneuvering. We have a variety of options for a range of household lawncare needs. We hope the above information has been helpful. If you would like more details on what units may be best suited for your needs, please contact us through Live chat direct on our site (www.greenworkstools.com) or call Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.

So Far, So Good After 1st Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to go electric after decades of gas powered mowers. I did my research and I liked what I saw about Greenworks. I used for the first time today and it did a great job. I look forward to many years of trouble free use.
