Great for Mulching

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine has worked perfectly. It works well at mulching leaves. It's nice to set the blade speed higher for mulching. I can easily mow my 3/4 of an acre lawn on one battery charge. I love that my chainsaw, trimmer, blower and now mower all can use the same batteries and chargers. I used the heavy duty steel shipping frame to make a stand for my canoes - bonus!
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this mower for 4 months now and I am very pleased with it. I have a half-acre yard and I can mow it twice on one charge. I have had a few issues with traction in tight turns but nothing unusual. Love the “cargo bed” in the back instead of a hot, noisy motor. So easy to maneuver and the ride is smooth. Cutting height is very easy to adjust.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I booth this 2 weeks ago and it is smooth and quiet. Takes a second to get used to it but after 15 minutes all systems were a go.
I thought this would an answer to prayer after owning gas mowers for over 60 years. Shortly after I receive this mower it 2022 it started giving a MR23 code. This means the right mower is overheating. I contacted Greenworks and they were great and sent out a new motor. It was late fall so when the motor arrived I put it on the shelf for install in the spring of 2023. Installed it and it did not work. So I put the old motor back and mowed. The mower would mow about 3/4 of my 1.5 acre and throw codes. I let it coold and kept going. When I contacted Greenworks they said they changed there policy and no longer send out parts and I was required to take it to an authorized repair shop, 60 miles away. This was peak season and I knew it meant taking it there, on a trailer. Dropping it off and likely waiting a few weeks to get it back. So I suffered through the summer and figured I would do it in the fall. In the mean time I looked at the motor they had sent and found a teminal that was not fully seated in the connector. I fixed the terminal and reintalled the motor. Everything worked. So for nearly a year I have been a happy camper. Then about a month ago it started throwing the same code along with ML23. I am fed up with constant shutting down of the mower. It now only mows half my front yard, about a normal yard size and I have to let it cool down. Never buying Greenworks again.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Jim 197052. Thank you for sharing your concerns. We are sorry to hear about your experience with the 80V Riding Mower. An MR23 code indicates the right blade motor has overheated, which shuts off the blades to protect the system. Allowing the mower to cool, clearing debris from the deck, checking fully charged batteries, or adjusting mowing speed and height often resolves the issue. If the code continues, a dealer can run a diagnostic to determine the cause. We understand that taking the mower to a repair shop may not be ideal, and we apologize for any inconvenience this causes. We hope the dealer can get it fixed quickly and provide a clear explanation so you feel confident in the repair. If there is anything else, we can do for you please let us know or give us a call. 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised how well this lawn tractor was built. To have the tray in back to carry 200 pounds and hitches front and rear to pull lawn equipment was a bonus.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this for nearly 2 months, and I love the machine. I live on a large lot with a walk-out basement, thus there are lots of up and down stretches, some of them quite steep. The CrossoverT has no problem with hills or long grass. I have a quarter acre of grass, not counting numerous sidewalks and a long driveway. I buzz around to make sure I don't miss any patches on curves, etc. With 4 batteries installed I have about 75% battery left. The reading might be a bit high, as when I tested the strength, I did the yard almost 3 times. As I was finishing the yard the machine shut off the blades while I still had lots of power to drive to the chargers. Recharging the batteries is fast. and battery life is really no consideration. Compared to my previous self-propelled 21-inch machine (which travels approximately 3 mph), I am cutting twice as wide and twice as fast. It is warp speed. The big advantage is that on hot summer days in the Midwest the heat really doesn't bother me. At 75 years of age the brisk walk behind the self-propelled mower was getting unbearable after a quarter acre at 95 degrees plus temps. Now I don't worry about temperature if the lawn needs cutting. The unit is built well; the processor and associated safety cutouts work well. I have had no glitches. The steering is fine. I cut the larger area in half and mow the areas like a Zamboni on a hockey rink. For small areas I buzz around a bit, but have lots of speed and lots of battery range, so the buzzing around is pretty relaxed.
