Out performs 30in gas mower
on June 8, 2023

Replaced my gas 30" mower with the 25" and so far I'm really happy about the switch this year. The counter rotating blades disperses the grass to the outer sides is the mower provides a better spread without side discharge. I don't bag, it's pointless.
I have engaged the safety shutoff when I caught a bit of chicken wire, and it still works great. However, be careful. The gears can strip that create the counter rotation, and they are not available for purchase currently. Proper yard prep is necessary with removing branches and obstacles. Thick and wet grass was no problem, just don't expect to cut too much at once. If so, double cut. The self propelled feature is good but it's not auto adjusting to speed. There's a delay to disengage the wheels to allow free movement into reverse. Just release the gears a few seconds before turning around. You can push the mower without self propelled on, but it's hard without it going up hill.

It's nice to listen to music and mow. And no gas is a plus. I just wish I could order the gears to have on hand.
Pros: Convenient, Cost-Saver, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Mower

We used this mower for the first time today. It’s powered by two 80v 2.5Ah batteries. The lawn is large and finished with battery to spare. It switched flawlessly from the depleted battery to the second. The cut was excellent. We bagged clippings today and will likely mulch next time. Everything worked exactly as advertised.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quiet, Effective, Powerful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first electric mower. I am really impressed with power of this mower! The 4ah battery is just enough to finish our 1/4 acre yard. Sometimes I run out just before I finish if the grass is a bit longer. I love the single lever raise/lower function. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is the mulching insert does not sit tightly in the chute so the chute fills with grass clipping. When I fold the lawnmower up, it dumps grass all over the garage or driveway.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Powerful

Ok mower with limitations.
on July 24, 2024
Posted by: Docboss302
from STL
Gender:Male
I have had this mower for three years. Observations: Good construction. Decent power but will overheat and shutdown when mowing high grass. Very irregular cut that I attribute to poor lift of mower blades. Many bent grass blades remain uncut meaning I must cut some areas twice to get the grass level even. This is particularly true in areas where grass has been pushed down by wheels or center path area where blades should overlap, but do not. Blades do not hold sharpness well. Be prepared to have two sets or sharpen frequently. This is an ok mower, but I wish I had purchased a different battery driven mower or Honda gas mower.
Pros: Easy to Use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Docboss302.
Thank you for your review. Your honest input is appreciated as we are always looking for areas to further improve our products to ensure our customers are completely satisfied. We read your review and wanted to thank you for both the detail and the feedback you have provided. We will be sure to share it internally.
If you don’t let the grass, get too high, you’ll be in good shape as far as getting an even cut. However, if you’ve let the grass get long, you’ll likely need to make a few passes for it to look even. One of the ways it’s able to provide a consistent cut is its sensory technology. This technology senses how tough or high the grass is and adjusts the power output accordingly. So, if you’re going over a flat area with low grass, it won’t put out as much in the way of RPMs, and if it hits a tougher spot, it ramps up the power to keep up. When to sharpen lawn mower blades, factors such as how much use, what type of grass you are cutting, the length of grass you are cutting, soil conditions, and other factors will determine how often you will need to sharpen your lawn mower blades. Greenworks blades have a protective coating on them, which makes them seem dull, but the coating wears off after a couple of minutes of use, and the steel underneath is quite sharp. Typically, we suggest sharpening or replacing at least once per season. We hope these suggestions helps. Should you have any questions or warranty needs, please contact us directly through Live Chat on www.greenworkstools.com or call 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS). We are here to help.

Best Mower I have ever owned
on October 24, 2024
Posted by: Great Lawnmower
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 25 inch dual blade Greenworks lawnmower a couple weeks ago and have cut the lawn twice. This is without a doubt the best lawnmower I have owned and I just celebrated my 75th birthday. It cuts the lawn evenly , no high spots etc. I can follow the wheel 'lines' and don't have to over lap like past mowers. This mower has a great feature that the cutting area is wider than the track of the wheels, which is perfect. The Greenworks designers and engineers got this one right !! I highly recommend this mower.
Pros: Convenient, Easy to Use, Quiet, Durable, Environmentally Safe, Effective, Powerful

Severely underpowered for regular lawn
on May 18, 2025
Posted by: MP3inNH

I bought this mower about a month ago, decided to diy the grass cutting this year. I have a regular lawn that’s quite large, (over 0.5 acre) and the lawn is regularly fertilized. This mower is not keeping up even if I cut the lawn every week. When I set the height to 4, it barely works, but when the height is set to 3, the mower struggles a lot and frequently stops because it gets jammed up with grass. The problem is the design, the edge of the blade is too thick and too far from to the cutting deck.
The mulching attachment is a nonstarter on this product. With mulching attachment, the mower jams about every 3-4 feet.
With the bagging option, you’ll have to empty the bag every 2-3 mins, otherwise it’ll jam up too. Again I’m cutting the lawn weekly and this is not even keeping up. The included 4Ah battery can barely keep cutting 2000-3000 sqft at best.
If the motor had another 5-10 horse power, I’m sure it would’ve been a different story. Unfortunately this mower is just too underpowered and overall a poor design. Other reviewers have pointed out other flaws, like plastic gear that have no replacement parts etc as well.
Had I read more reviews in advance, I would’ve avoided this mower.

HelloMP3inNH
We are sorry to hear that you do not recommend this product. Many We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the time you are getting from your Greenworks 80v self-propelled mower. Runtimes and area coverage can vary depending on several factors. Grass height, grass type, mulching, and operators’ technique etc. Uneven ground, trees, bushes, and other obstacles on your lawn can significantly decrease the amount of area you can mow effectively with each pass. Your mowing pattern and technique can also impact on how much area you can cover each time. If your lawn has significant challenges, you might need a mower with features better suited for your specific conditions, like a zero-turn mower for tight maneuvering. We have a variety of options for a range of household lawncare needs. We hope the above information has been helpful.
