Greenworks 80V 21" Self-Propelled Cordless Lawn Mower – Brushless Motor, LED Lights, 4.0Ah Battery & Rapid Charger (75+ Compatible Tools)

This is my third Greenworks lawnmower, and they just keep getting better. I should probably mention that I replaced the first two for technological improvements, and not because they failed to work. This mower has a self-propel feature that is much more attractive to me now that I am older, but it has the same intuitive operation as my previous mowers. It is simple to understand, simple to operate, and a lot quieter than a gas mower. That means I can use this mower early in the morning or later in the evening without having to worry about complaints from the neighbors. In fact, my neighbors tell me they can't hear the mower at all, even when I am using it just a few feet from their windows. That's a huge plus when your neighbors' houses are very close to your property line. And not having to deal with gas cans and motor oil is a big plus, too. I mentioned the self-propel feature - I disengage that when I am approaching a flower bed or fencing, just to make sure the mower doesn't get away from me. I'm not really sure that's necessary, but it does give me a little peace of mind, and the ability to switch back and forth between self-propel and manual in an instant is another really nice feature. Because this is an electric mower, it's not only quiet, but it starts instantly, too. No more pulling cords and hoping the engine will catch. The batteries recharge quickly, and they hold a charge well - I charged my batteries at the end of last summer, stored them in an unheated outdoor cabinet all winter, and 6 months later they were all still fully charged and ready to go. I have a large yard, so I keep at least 3 batteries - I use one, put it on the charger, use a second, and by the time that one needs to be replaced, the first one is fully charged. It's not necessary to keep multiple batteries, but it saves me enough time to make it worth the investment. As for the value, this mower costs about twice as much as an entry-level gas mower, but it is well worth the price. It's more reliable, more environmentally friendly, easier to use and it never runs out of gas. I am Team Greenworks for live.

Great mower,like slow speed. I do not have to chase this mower, at 79, it moves slow enough for my bad legs to keep up with. Light weight and easy to push or pull if have to. My gas mower is twice as heavy, this is well built and cuts good, like not having gas and to buy oil for a mower. Handle folds over easy and can store on rear wheels not worry oil getting into piston cylinder and clog up starting engine. Charges fast. Easy to clean and store.

Bought the 80 v with 4ah battery, self propelled. Super easy to start out of the box, no assembly. Folding handle is a nice feature for storing and especially cleaning. I have a half acre of mixed weeds, mostly grass, some mustard etc. unfortunately I let it get out of control this year, knee high in areas, my riding mower stopped working last year and I dragged my feet choosing this mower. Soooo. It performed great. Lots of power. Stalled twice due to thick grass but so does my riding mower. I developed a technique of tilting back at 45 degrees for high grass then went over it forward and back. Most areas over 8 inches needed mowing back and forth, moving along at six feet at a time, didn't use the self propelled feature at all. The mower is very light. Under six inches no problem at all. The battery lasted about 30 minutes, charged in under an hour . Because of high thick weeds I had to do this five times for my half acre even without using self propel which I presume saved battery life but if mowing grass under six inches (next time!) I expect it would do most of the half acre on a charge. I'm 68 And retired so I didn't mind waiting for the battery to recharge. Definitely recommend. Consider an extra battery.

Easy to use and gets the job done on my slightly larger than average neighborhood lot (St. Augustine grass). Turbo kicks in whenever needed for thicker grass. Easy to adjust height, in fact very easy. Not too heavy so I do not have to use the self propelled functionality, it just makes it easier after turns near the fence to let the machine do the work for the first few steps. Good price compared to competitors. The only complaints and why this gets four rather than five stars is you need to make sure to quick the self propelled function a step or two before the end of a run as otherwise the back wheels lock when you try to turn. You get used to it, and it isn't a big deal if you forget, but it is a little wonky. More of an issue is the mulch quality which is only adequate. The mulch could and should be improved a little and it would be better. It is adequate at mulching, but nothing more. That said, I am happy with the purchase and would not feel bad recommending this as it is overall a good machine at a very competitive price. Secondary market batteries are available at a much better price than OEM, and the one I purchased works like a charm.

Delivered packed and protected well. Assembly was minimal and easy - pull the rubber plugs out of the arms and attach the control bar. I’m comparing this to my nearly 10 year old sears Briggs & Stratton, that still runs. The green works is lighter, has a faster self propel(which is so nice), quieter, and cuts just as well, if not better. I have a patch of grass that grows thicker that bogged it down, does the same to my Briggs & Stratton. When I put it in turbo mode it ran through it fine. It took a minute to get used to the rear wheel self-propel but that’s all. I also appreciate how you can flip it on its end to clean out, much easier than a gas mower. Overall, I’m impressed at how well this cut and how easy it was to maneuver. I cut my front hard and still had 3 bars (my front yard is double from what the picture shows). Hopefully it continues to perform this well. I’ll address my review if it drops in performance. After one mow, 5 stars. Update: I had a few large branches in part of my back yard so the grass and weeds grew pretty tall, calf to knee high. Mower surprisingly did well. Gotta have it on turbo and can’t use self propelled, seems to bog it down with taller grass. But it ran right through it. First thing in the morning and the grass was wet too. Being electric it’s also easy to tip it over and clean the wet grass off. The bag is on the small side, but still happy with it overall.

I am a FTHB and moved into my new house in June 2025. When I was growing up I have vivid memories of my dad and I fighting out gas lawn mower. "Did we prime it" "Is the starter out" etc. This electric green works is absolutely amazing plus its at a good price point. I love that you can either side discharge bag or mulch your clipings. I also like the height. I have a St. Augustine lawn and love mowing it tall to show of those fat juicy blades! I also like when adjusting the height there's just 1 hamdle that controls all 4 wheel heights. The mower can go super fast practically a run but I typically run it at its slowest setting. The battery charges pretty quickly and last for both front and backyard mods. Would recommend to anyone in the market. I truly think this mower beats out the bigger more well established companies!

Very impressed with this mower! Does a terrific job mulching the grass. Battery lasts about half-hour and charges full in about an hour. NO MORE GAS fumes! And the mower is considerably lighter and easier to maneuver than anything with a gas engine.

So, I've got a 10+ year old Honda/Briggs and Stratton push mower that I change oil, spark plugs, filter and blade on every year or two. Engine is going strong but the deck is rotting out underneath it and I've rebuilt the front wheel supports 3 times. After numerous repairs to Frankenmower, I decided to get something new and I was enthusiastic about trying an electric mower. I bought this one (and the extended warrantly because I hoped it would be something I could keep for years), assembled it, fully charged the battery, read the manual etc. Assembly was fine, with the exception of a poorly placed pre-drilled hole. I was overall impressed with the sturdy feeling, moderate weight, and I really liked the option for vertical storage. Started easily, and the noise and vibration is marginally but noticeably lower than a gas mower. But when I tried to actually mow with it? Unbelievably disappointing. I had it set at the second highest detent, for grass that was not particularly high (Illinois, September, standard suburban lawn). It made about 3 passes before it started to struggle, then repeatedly gave up. Restarting it repeatedly resulted in the same thing each time. It simply lacked the power to deal with standard lawn. Battery still read full... I pulled out Ye Olde Ancient Frankenmower, aligned the wheels more or less, added some unleaded, and finished the lawn without a problem. I'm a fan of innovation and I'm ready to move to the improved version of mowing - this is NOT it. This machine is not up to the task it was designed for. Hugely disappointed. If you are mowing SMALL amounts of LOW, DRY grass, this might do the job. Anything more, I do not recommend. Kudos to Amazon for their return policies - The customer serviice is the primary reason I keep shopping with them. This unfortunate experiment is going back.
