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
It easily switches from one battery to another when in use. Has a terrific one handed system to change the height. Another fine feature is the turbo (high speed) mode which seems significantly more powerful than normal operating speed. Quite light weight and easy to use. Very pleased with this product.
My two main concerns were battery life and power. After using this for the past month, neither has been an issue at all. This has cut through anything I’ve used it for with no problem. It takes about 30 minutes to cut all of my lawn and that isn’t enough to even get the battery to half. I’m definitely impressed so far!
This mower is light-weight, very quiet, and efficient! I have over an acre of lawn and am able to mow nearly the entire area using the 2 batteries. The battery charging is quick as well. I've used the mower a few times now and am very happy with it's performance!
Excellent mower with impressive power and durability

This is my first battery-powered lawn mower, and I'm truly amazed with how quiet and powerful it is. Before buying, I compared it with another popular brand. What sold me on this GreenWorks mower were (1) the steel deck, and (2) the brushless motor, which means durability and power. Our front lawn plus the sidewalk-to-curb strip is about 1,600 sqft total, and runs the battery down to about 50% to completely mow. I'm doubtful this could tackle a whole acre on a single charge, but it's more than enough for our needs, it cuts beautifully, and it's quieter than any gas-powered mower I've ever used. The only complaint I have about this mower is the handle assembly. There's a cord on one side of the upper (start) handle which you need to feed into the lower section of the handle, and it doesn't feel like there's enough room for it. They say to be very careful with that cord, but you basically have to force it in to get the handle to the point that the bolt holes line up. And then, you need to make sure the bolt doesn't damage the cord. I'd almost deduct a star for that, but everything else about this mower deserves high marks, so I'm sticking with the 5-star rating.
Got my lawnmower last week and it was very easy to set up. Mowed the lawn a couple of times and the battery was more than sufficient to mow just over 4000 sq feet of lawn with excess power and the pick up of clippings is much better than the gas powered mower I’m selling
