Long runtime. Can't handle thick lawns.

Been using this mower for two seasons. Two issues stand out. 1) It does not handle thick, 3" or more height when cutting. Leaves clumps of grass even when the bag is empty. 2) When the bag is only halfway full, it's enough at that point to block the discharge shoot, and stop anymore clippings from entering the bag. I constantly have to empty the bag well before it is full! It seems the clippings don't get discharged at a high enough velocity to push them further back into the bag!
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello JMatt64
Thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear about this experience! In most cases this means either of two things. Depending on the length of the grass and when the last time it was cut the bag may fill up quickly. Another reason, why the grass not flowing into my bagger properly could be the collection bag is clogged. If the lining of your grass bag is clogged with old grass, you should clean it and once clean the air should flow through the grass bag more efficiently and improve the grass collection. Hope this suggestion helps! If you find that you are still experiencing issues, we would be more than happy to assist with further diagnosis. Please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS).
Bought this mower last fall. It came ‘tool only’ and I couldn’t afford the battery and charger at the time. Love to review it. My 60 volt was brilliant till I hit a hidden stump and toasted it. Would like to know if the 80V can run with one battery or the two it’s slotted for. I also feel a little ‘bait and switched’ with the tool only. Love all my other Greenworks tools and would like to stick with you.

Hello waterdog,
Thank you for your interest and your continued support. While the lawn mower can be used with one battery. It is recommend using both batteries for optimal runtime. From time to time we do run sales on our batteries and more! Please be sure to follow us on social media for updates on new units and promotions.
If none of these forms of social media interest you, no worries! You can also check out our web page at https://www.greenworkstools.com and sign up for emails about upcoming promotions and product releases.
The self propel stopped working after about 8 months. It kills the mower when attempting to turn on. Only good thing I'll say about this is the battery life is pretty decent but it's not much use to me without the self propel as I have extremely hilly land on 2 acres and mowing with the bag it too much.
Pros: Convenient, Quiet

I just purchased this 80v 21 Cordless Self Propelled Lawnmower on March 24, 2023,(brushless Motor version) and only used it once (to cut my 0-1/4 acres yard), and just like the vast majority of UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS with the operational performance of this Greenworks lawnmower it SHUTS OFF REPEATEDLY, and the Self-Propelled feature quit working. Buyers, PLEASE BEWARE!!! THE POOR OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS GREENWORKS LAWN MOWER ARE TRUE AND ACCURATE!!!
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello CristianG,
We appreciate you taking the time to leave positive feedback about your newly purchased item. We are happy to hear that you are enjoying it. We would love to offer some tips to help care for the tool and accessories. For best storage practice the lawn mower should be stored somewhere dry and protected from the elements, such as a garage or shed. If you have no other choice but to store it outside, keep it elevated above the ground and covered with a durable tarp. When the battery will not be in use, store it indoors, in a cool dry area - away from direct sunlight. Leave the charger unplugged and the battery disconnected from the charger unless it needs charging. Store the battery with a full charge, and if it is being stored for a period where no use is expected, check on the charge every couple of months. If you notice the charge has dropped, we recommend charging the battery back up to full before returning it to its safe storage place. Following these steps will ensure you receive the most of the battery life. If it ends up that you are having an issue with the lawn mower, battery or charger please contact Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934, and we would be happy to assist you further in remedying an issues. Thank you for your feedback! Thank you for being a valued Greenworks customer.

My father purchased this for me when I purchased my first home, and it was working great, until, during my last mow of the season, it would not turn on anymore. I did the troubleshooting so I assume it is an issue with the start handle, but I have been unable to reach their customer service team.
Pros: Quiet

I bought this after my lawn guy quit and I couldn’t find a comparable replacement. I wanted a mower that was easy to use, low maintenance, and durable. So fat this meets my needs and I’m a widow in her 60s.
