This is our first electric mower, I didn't want something with a cord. It's been a pleasant surprise so far and my only issue is that is not as efficient at picking up leaves. The white clipping bag needs to be a different color, it's already turning green.

I am a professional gardener and needed a reliable lawnmower that didn't run on gas. Greenworks lawnmower has proven to be tops in performance. My company will continue with Greenworks products.

I recently purchased the mower and have used it 3 or 4 times. Short version: if you have a small or large flat suburban golf course you can stop reading and just go buy it, it cuts well and is very quiet. If you have a large hilly yard with the occasional mole hill you should probably still buy it but you will want to think about it.
The good: it cuts grass well, is pretty fast at its highest speed setting, is very quiet, battery life is good and recharges quickly. The not so good: the drive mechanism is a bit slow to engage and especially disengage, but you quickly adapt to that similar to regenerative braking in an electric car. You learn to disengage 2-3 feet before you change direction or the wheels stay engaged with the drive and you can't pull backward. Fortunately it's light and it's easy to push that last foot or two. The biggest disappointment for me is the blade. It's very soft and dings up really easily. For those of us with the occasional mole hill and gravel driveways you will be sharpening a lot. On the plus side it sharpens easily since it's so soft but I'd rather work harder less often. It's also a terrible mulcher. The Honda dual blade mulching mower I retired for this unit just made grass and leaves go away, turning them into a fine powder that required a mask if it was dry, and sucked up wet leaves from the ground. This mower just turns grass and leaves into smaller pieces and gums up the deck with wet mulch. With a better blade/mulching this could be a full 5 star machine, but it gets 4, 2.5 for mulching and 4.5 for cutting with a generous round up to 4 since I mow a lot more than I mulch leaves. As a dry mower it is excellent. In real life when you have to mow when wet (I live in Oregon) it's less than excellent but still pretty good overall. I recommend it, I'm happy I made the switch, the smug satisfaction I get from using electricity and not having to fill the gas tank, the quiet, it all works for me, but it is more of a chef's knife than a cleaver. It rewards delicacy and patience, if you are an impatient bruiser you might want to stick to dead dino power.

Out of the box and mowing in no time! I was so impressed with the quality of the mower and the quietness of the motor. I shopped around and was so glad I found the "Made in the USA" product.

Mower was incredibly easy to set up out of the box and did a terrific job on its first use - cut even and bag was easy to empty. Even with my lawn being flat happy I got the self-propelled version of the 80V to maximize ease of use
