Verified Purchase:Yes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this approximately a month and have used it to cut the heavier spring growth. I got the self propelled 80v with a 5 ah battery on sale and I am happy with the choice for the most part. Its not as powerful as my old gas mower but its close enough. I dont think it will be as big a part of fall leaf pickup as my old gas mower which had much more lift and suction, but thats fine too. I have about 10k sq ft and I push the mower for the exercise, but nice to know self propelled is there. With me pushing for 50min I have 1 light left on the battery meter. Whether this is 30 more seconds or 15 minutes I do not know as it hasn't run out. Pretty happy with the purchase but i'm going to run the other one dry, buy a cheap carb off the internet and keep it just in case. Note: if the mower had a turbo button, i dont think the leaf stuff would be an issue, but the model i chose doesnt have that.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Beat gas hands down

Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this and have tried out twice. Once mulching and it did a super job. The, I had a bunch of rain, and my lawn grew about 3 inches, and I used the catchers. It sliced through the thick, tall grass like butter, and it never bogged down like a gas mower does. My yard isn't very big, perhaps 1/4 acre or so, with a couple slight slopes, and I used one battery. With mulching, when I finished, I still had 2 of the 3 indicator lights on. So, I guess I used about a third of the charge. With the grass catcher, and the tick tall grass, after the rain, when I finished, I still had 1 of the 3 indicator lights on. Both times, I started with a full charge. It does a super job, a nice even clean cut. All in all, I'm glad I bought it, and it's worth the money. It's easy to use.

Does an ok job on medium to thin grss but if your law is thinck like mine you HAVE to walk slow otherwize it bogs down plus you wil have to stop to clean it out. I have medium size yard and now that it is thick, I have to stop t 3 to 4 tie sto clean out the mower. Very concerned that soon I will see smoke comming from the motor. An expensive mistake.
Pros: Quiet
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello JoeAR,.
We're sorry to hear that you are not fully satisfied with this lawn mower. It is important to recognize that the run time depends on the load acting against the unit and fluctuates depending on the height setting, the terrain, grass height, type of grass, whether you are mulching, operator technique, etc. - there are so many factors to consider. The harder the unit must work, the quicker the battery charge will drain. Similar to how the gas in a vehicle will deplete quicker when driving at higher speeds or carrying more weight.
Here are a few tips to extend your run time!
1) When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings.
2) Only mow 1/3 of the total grass length at a time - no more. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1 1/2 to 2” (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and between 2" to 3 1/4" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) long during hot months.
3) Mow when the grass is dry. As this is an electric unit, mowing wet/damp grass is a safety issue. However, ensuring the grass is dry will also help the grass cut cleanly and discharge appropriately. Wet/damp grass carries more weight and will mostly stick to the blade/motor shaft and will not appropriately discharge or cut easily.
4) Make sure the battery is cool before use. When the battery will not be in use, we suggest storing 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.
5) Only use the self-propelled feature when needed. Self-propelled mowers do use more battery than standard push mowers as more power is being demanded from the battery to run the blades and the wheels.
We hope these tips will help!

Great Mower

I just bought this unit to replace my gas Honda mower. I already like this machine. It works very well for my Bermuda grass on 1/4 acre yard. It has a lot of power to cut my tall grass. The self propel feature works well for me although it has few seconds delay to disengage.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy To Use
on July 3, 2023
Posted by: # A Cut Below
from Florida
I bought this unit back in February and have used it for about 25 cuts so far. The set up was easy and the mower runs great. The battery charges quickly. The issue is with how clean, or not clean, the unit cuts. Not sure if it is the design of the deck, the blade or just not enough oomph but it leaves way too many blades uncut even when cutting at a snails pace and with a significant overlap. I thought that the 80 Volt would be powerful enough to lift all the grass for a nice clean cut but it does not.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello # A Cut Below,
Thank you for sharing your feedback! When the lawn is being cut uneven, this can indicate a few different things. The first being that the lawn itself is rough or uneven. However, if this is not the case then it is possible that the grass is too tall, or the cutting height is set too low for the type of grass. Try raising the cutting height and reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and a proper discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1 1/2 to 2” (3.8 to 5 cm) long during cool months, and between 2" to 3 1/4" (5 cm to 8.3 cm) long during hot months. If you have tried these suggestions, try having a look underneath of the mower deck and ensure that there has been no damage to the motor shaft, fan, blade, blade washer/insulator or the bolt. If any of these parts have been damaged or thrown off balance this will result in an even cut and likely, a noticeable vibration while in use.
Should you have any further questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through chatbot on www.greenworkstools.com that will direct you to a live agent or call us at Greenworks Pro toll-free helpline at 1-855-345-3934.
