The extended run battery allows me to mow the entire lawn without stopping. My hands hurt by the end of the mow though due to gripping and the vibration. I'm able to use the speed walk option on occasion which is nice to have. The underside of the deck is hard to clean in spots after mowing. I love having the option to store vertically to save space in the garage. The motor is slow to start and stop compared to our old B&D model and there is a high pitched whine that might bother some users. Changing the deck height while mowing is feasible. Overall, a great machine that does the job- just some tweeks would make it amazing.
Up until this date I have mowed the front and back lawns 3 times. The mower has Exceeded my expectations. My combined lawns are about 5400 sq. ft. I am using the smallest battery and can mow both lawns with a single charge, or I can mow one lawn and use the blower with a single charge. My next purchase will be a weed eater and I may purchase a second battery. I do not know anything about durability yet.
This is one powerful mower. I have several 80 volt powered tools from Greenworks and was pleased that I can use the same battery for this self propelled mower. Love them so much I just received the 18 inch Chainsaw.... Time to go have some fun!
I have used your lawn mower three times since I have received it. It has the power and RPMs to cut thru every part of my yard. My only gripe I have is the 4Ahr and 5Ahr battery were not available to purchase even for back order. Your website has limitations ...
Bottom line up front: This mower is phenomenal. Even though I've only had it a few weeks, but I've already abused the bejeesus out of it... I'd gladly buy another one tomorrow. Look at the photos I've attached. I also purchased the attachment capable weedeater. It's great too, but the mower is the best mower I've ever used.
I have a 3/4 acre lot. The 1/2 acre of my property that is grass was no problem at all. Using a 4Ah and a 2Ah battery, I only have had to pause to charge once - and that is only because I let the grass get really high. It was knee high in some places.
That being said, over the years I have let about 1/4 of my lot has been go wild. I've called it my "suburban nature preserve." It was to the point where I was considering hiring a professional to clear the land. It consisted of raspberry bushes, greenbriar vines, english ivy, and hundreds of magnolia, oak, and pine saplings. Some of these saplings were 6' tall.
The other day, I took a pass through a section that was mostly ivy and greenbriar with no issues. Gradually, I worked up the nerve to take it through the really thick stuff. This mower did not disappoint. The only time it stopped was when I hit some hidden plastic sheeting and when the battery died.
It mulched literally dozens of saplings 3/4" thick and 6 feet tall while making light work of the brush surrounding them. I've never seen a mower be able to handle this type of stuff and I'm absolutely amazed.
I just used this mower for the first time and I am very happy with it. It worked very well and left my lawn looking so even compared to my last gas mower. It takes about an hour to mow and the battery still had some charge left. I do not regret the purchase.
Purchased the 21" self-propelled model. Honest review in my opinion. Assembly directions were a little lacking, but able to complete using youtube video. Mower is fantastic for cutting and noise level. Only downside, the self propelled rate is a moderate walk on highest level and snails pace on lowest level compared to a self-paced mower. Love how compactly mower folds up to store. Also, saw online it is recommended to spray cutting deck with silicon spray to ease cleanup. No water cleanup.
