Great so far…

We have 5 acres with slope, rocks, and holes. The larger tires on this model have been great for handling rough areas without getting stuck. The mower has handled our tall field grass easily. Recharge time on the batteries is pretty quick. The mower has plenty of power for going up steep hills.
My only major knock is having to take all 6 batteries out to recharge. An onboard plug in would be much more convenient. Also, the instructions for putting on the mulcher are not good. Maybe something was lost in translation, but this needs major improvement, and I’m an avid do-it-yourselfer.
Overall, though, great mower so far. Love being able to recharge from our solar panels and not having to keep gas around. It cuts really well and is very quiet.
We are thrilled with this mower. After putting alot of money into keeping our gas rider working the last few years, we were happy when Greenworks finally came out with their rider, which we had been waiting for. We have close to 2 acres to mow, it is not flat, and there are lots of things to go around. Starting at 100% charge, it does the whole thing. We also enjoy using it to pull around a utility cart for lawn chores.
We are very impressed with how much fun we had putting it together, and driving it off the ramp. My husband didn’t want a new mower, but we’re getting older and I hate to get gasoline and smell in the car. He loves it and is sorry we didn’t get this mower sooner. Easy to use, charge, cut and does our bill with ease.
I’ve used the mower about a month now. First, it’s most comfortable seat I’ve ever had for a riding mower. It cuts the grass very evenly and leaves a smooth finish. The batteries have held up as advertised. I have about 2 acres and Have charge to spare when done. Plus the batteries charge back quickly.
I highly recommend this mower.If your afraid of switching from gas to electric don’t be.This mower is every bit as powerful as my cub cadet that I used for eighteen years.My yard is nearly two acres. It not only mower the whole yard. I still had a forty eight percent charge left on the batteries when finished.The mower never bogged down at all.By all means buy it
First of all, when I saw this mower in person it was much bigger and beefier than it appeared in pictures! The seat is extremely comfortable, and the steering wheel placement is convenient and out of the way when you get on and off the mower. I love the little cargo bed in back! Fantastic for hauling fertilizer, seed, or plants. I also love the exposed tubing all the way around the mower that makes it easy to tie it down to a trailer for transport. Also, the 2-in receiver in front lets you use this mower to move around a small trailer, or boat! It is so incredibly easy to use, that it makes mowing the lawn actually fun! Love the removable batteries system, and the three dual Port chargers! I mow two yards, and after I'm done with the second one I still have an indicated 83% charge. To think that I'll never have to put gas in it, change the oil, replace a belt, for worry about whether it will start after sitting through the off season, absolutely justifies this purchase. I had to think for quite a while to come up with anything I would change. One minor thing that's not really a problem is, I would rather have a heel toe or two pedal forward and reverse system as opposed to the switch. It's no problem though. If you're thinking about an electric Rider with a good amount of cut, this is the one. I've done all the research for you. You don't want one with lead acid batteries! This has lithium ion batteries just like the electric cars on the road today.
My 2 acres has some slopes and flat areas. The 6 batteries gives me enough power to mow it. I have side discharge although mulch kit is included. The only frustration is the forward/reverse switch and blade on reverse. I have to press and hold the button to keep the PTO running. It’s easy to accidentally bump the front/reverse switch. I think it should be a lever like shifter of a car. It’ll be more intuitive. Also, the more should not free roll if in area. Be care and remember to put parking break on. As for the seat, I wish it’ll let me slide back more. I’m average height of 5’9” and it feels cramp for my leg to press the accelerator pedal. I especially like the battery design as they are easily removed to charge and can be used in other Greenworks Tools 60v tools. Some other brand has a 1 piece giant battery pack than is hard and heavy to replace. Turn ratio is better than gas powered mower as there is more room in front, without the engine, for the front wheels to turn. My wife enjoys using the mower as an ATV.
