Love it, but...

Overall, the mower is great and I would never go back to a gas mower. Still, a couple of things bother me. The side chute clogs much too easily. In the real world you often mow when the grass is not real short or not real dry. The rear grass collection works well, but I'm old and I really don't like to manhandle the collection bag, plus where am I going to put all that grass? And, even more bothersome, the grass tends to spit out of the chute (when it's not clogged) in large clumps that are very unsightly. My old gas mower had a bigger chute and ejected the grass in a wider area that needed no raking to look OK. Why couldn't this chute be designed the same?
Another, perhaps minor, point: when you stop going forward and pull the mower backwards, which one does all the time,the self-propelling motor does not disengage instantly, but instead keeps the wheels locked for a short time, making it hard to immediately pull the machine backwards.
I could add many compliments about excellent design features: the ingenious storage position, the quiet engine, the powerful long-lasting battery, the surprising ease of mounting and dismounting the collection bag (if you use it).

Beat gas hands down

[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.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this mower about a month ago. It is very easy to assemble. 80V battery is as powerful as a gas mower. And 5.0 Ah makes it faster to charge. I am really satisfied with this product. The self propelled option is also very easy to turn on and off.

It's easy, quiet and has sufficient power

I am so happy that I bought this. The self propel feature with speed adjustment is just awesome. It really makes mowing as easy as walk in the park. The mower has good power and cuts through thick grass and weeds. I have about 0.27 acre plot and was able to move it in one charge with the 80v 5A battery. There is option to mow without self propel feature which makes mowing in tight areas easy. Now I can see why this mower is out of stock on most of the websites.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome mower

My gas mower finally died and I needed a replacement for my .75 acre yard. After reading reviews I decided to give the Greenworks 80V a try, since I really love the Greenworks hedge trimmer and pole saw that I own. It took 3 days for the mower to come, and that coupled with the 5 days that my old mower was broken left me with a high grass lawn. We have alos been getting rain almost everyday so it was wet. I charged the 5ah battery fully and was able to easily mow 2/3 of my lawn and still have 1 light left on the battery. I used the side chute for 1/2 and the bag for the other half, just to get an idea on how they worked and had no issues. The ramp up by the motor when hitting the really high grass worked great and the motor never bogged down. It's early but so far I couldn't be happier and plan to use the mulch for the final 1/3 tomorrow

I purchased a Green works 21" Cordless, Brushless 80 Volt Self Propelled Lawn Mower 3 weeks ago. It is GREAT. This electric lawn mower is actually fun to use. I can mow the front and back yards and only use 2/3 of the battery. Recharging is really nice as it only takes approximately 45 minutes for a complete recharge. It is easy to use and clean.
