60V 25in Self-Propelled Lawn Mower, (2) 4.0 Ah Battery Kit

You won't go wrong buying this battery-powered mower, at least in my case. We bought this Greenworks 25", 60 volt battery-powered mower a couple of months ago when it went on sale at Amazon. It came in a big box, so be prepared. Easy to unbox and put together. This mower is definitely much lighter than a gas-powered mower. Very easy to use. I wasn't sure at first because it performs so differently, but with consistent use, I was able to figure out its quirks and maneuvered it without difficulty. I am 4'11" tall and found that the lower handle adjustment (it has two positions) was perfect for me. I also found that when making a turn, it is better to take it out of self-propelled drive just by releasing the lever. Made it very easy to make a turn without the wheels digging into the lawn. Press the lever again, and you are off and running. I have a number of hills and valleys to maneuver and it performs with no difficulty. You can distinguish when one of the batteries empties by witnessing a slight "surge" noise in the power. I can get about an hour or two out of the two batteries. I love the 25" wide deck, as it cut the cutting time in half compared to the gas one. What I really like is how easy it is to store when I collapse the handle. Before storing it, it is a must that you clean the under-carriage of debris and mud/dirt. I also have the same voltage Greenworks weed wacker (which is also a lightweight gem), so I can interchange batteries. The landscape picture is a third of our property. My husband is particularly enamored because he doesn't have to cut the lawn/moss anymore!

First, I'm a senior citizen and have owned many mowers over the years. Just purchased and made my first cut with this my first battery powered mower. Very easy unboxing and setup. Charge batteries, insert and push the button. My yard is half acre with about 15-18k square feet to mow. Used just less than one battery to mow entire yard. Never needed to use 2nd battery. Cut was great....no lines....no little balls of clippings...very smooth even cut on mulch mode. Have not use bagging yet. The self propel speed is adequate. I like to walk fast and the top speed setting is the same as my current Honda mower. The slow-medium speed settings are very slow. The only negative I found is, like others say, the mower hesitates about 2 seconds to pull back when mowing around bushes, trees, etc. when you need to pull straight back, if you release the self propel handle 3-4 feet from the end of row, that solves the problem. Also, the self propel handles seem to be a little flimsy for long term use. The collapsible handle is great and the ability to store on its side saves a lot of garage space. The 25" cut is nice compared to my Honda 21 inches. Appears to be solidly built and if is trouble free like my gas Honda has been for past 7 years, this will be a nice yard work investment. Highly recommend.

We recently downsized and needed a smaller mower than our big zero-turn. I am glad I decided on this one. The self-propelled feature is great and the speed is highly adjustable. Having it available for getting the mower moving from a standstill or to get up a grade is very helpful. On the flat, it is light enough to push if you wish. The mulching feature with no grass discharge is great. The grass gets chopped very finely because it is forced to remain under the mower. The batteries recharge very quickly; when the first is out, I put it in the charger and continue with the second. By the time the second battery is out, the first is recharged and I can keep mowing without waiting. It is quite powerful but plan on using a lot of battery power if the grass is thick or tall. It is easy to store and it’s cool that you can tip it onto its front end to save space. One of the many benefits of having no liquid in a machine … There is only one improvement I would make. There is a self-propel engagement lever for each hand and either one will move the mower. This is an all-or-nothing, on-or-off proposition. I wish I could operate either side of the mower independently as I could the zero-turn. If you want to mow a curve, you have to push it on your own because both wheels are powered equally and there is no way to slow the wheel traveling the shorter distance.

The Greenworks 60V 25" cordless mower is a solidly built machine that I purchased to replace a gasoline-powered 22" push mower. I was tired of the maintenance that comes with a gasoline powered device and since I already had battery powered lawn maintenance devices, I thought I'd give a battery powered mower a try. After a few months of use, I am happy to say that overall the battery powered mower experience has been quite good. That said, there are some issues that bear mentioning. Mower issue #1: The mower keeps the "traditional" design of gasoline push mowers with two wheels forward, followed by the deck, then the following wheels. This means that it has the same issue that comes with gasoline powered push mowers where the forward two wheels crush down the grass before the blades can cut it. This is a problem with this mower in particular because of mower issue #3, below. It's not clear why Greenworks chose to go this route. For a gasoline powered mower, the designer is pretty much stuck because the power source is a big hunk of iron that needs to be mounted in the middle of the deck to swing a big blade around, so the wheels naturally need to be placed on the four corners of the deck to keep the whole thing stable. Yes, I realize this is a bit of an oversimplification, but most gasoline powered mowers do it this way to keep costs down. The Greenworks mower, however, doesn't really have that set of problems. Placing the blades before the front wheels (very doable because "electric") would provide a much better cut and would eliminate issue #3. Mower issue #2: The mower achieves its 25" cut width by using two side-by-side blades under the deck. The blades are considerably further from the mower deck edge than any other mower I've owned over the years. As a result, the amount of uncut grass next to the mower deck is greater than with other mowers so I find myself trimming more than I had been. --- Mower issue #3: As mentioned, the mower uses side-by-side blades. This implies, and is true in fact, that the blades are short. The short blades seem to have less of a vacuum effect to pick up grass that is lying down. Enter issue #1; the front wheels crush down the grass before the blades can get to it then the low vacuum isn't enough to pick the grass up completely so the grass along the wheel lines is a bit longer than elsewhere. When the grass eventually un-crushes itself, you end up with an uneven cut. At this point you either live with the uneven cut or you end up going over the lawn a second time to fix the issue. Which brings up the other issue with the side-by-side blades. --- Mower issue #4: The dual blade design misses spots. I don't mean that there is a line where the blades miss cutting the grass, but rather that one will be cutting straight, look behind and see a random clump of uncut grass right in the middle of the pass you’re currently making. If you run over it a second time, it'll then be cut, but it's unclear why this happens. Playing with the self-propelled speed control, it seems that the uncut clumps are more prevalent when cutting slower. That's very counterintuitive, but testing it repeatedly, that really does seem to be the case. --- Mower issue #5: For all of the reasons given in the previous issues, the default blade speed pretty much guarantees the need to mow the grass twice, either by making two passes every time or by mowing once, then going back and mowing a second time. Interestingly, Greenworks provided a "turbo" button to increase the blade speed. Increasing the blade speed does seem to mostly mitigate issues #1 through #4. After a lot of experimentation, it seems to be the case that running the mower in turbo mode, using the self-propel speed control to set the speed to ~3/4 results in an acceptable cut without the need to cut the grass twice. --- Mower issue #6: The controls. Oh, the controls. How do I hate thee, let me count the ways... The self-propel speed control is placed such that it's really easy to change using either thumb. You know what else can easily change that speed? EVERYTHING!!! Tight spot backing into a bush, speed change. Pull the mower towards yourself and touch the handle, speed change. Remove a hand from the handle to grab a low hanging branch, speed change. Sometimes I'm just walking along and the speed feels a bit off, look down and see the speed has changed. No idea how that happened... Clearly, nobody actually tested the mower prior to releasing it to the public as this was very noticeable within 10 minutes of using it. Which brings me to the self-propel engagement control. These are two little paddles towards the user behind the troublesome speed control. When you pull the mower towards yourself to, you know, mow like a normal human, guess what bumps into you before the handle? If you said the self-propel engagement control, you would be correct! If residential lots are perfectly flat, this would probably never be an issue, but where I live there is very little flat land. Try mowing a ditch or a steep bank and *not* come into contact with the handle. It's extremely annoying because you're pulling the mower up the bank and suddenly the thing jumps forward and locks the wheels so that you can only go forward. Clearly some thought was given into control accessibility, but how about expending some thought to protecting those controls from issues that come with normal use. --- Mower issue #7: Well, I say issue, but it’s really about a design choice. The mower has two batteries. It uses these serially, meaning first one, then the other. It’s clear that the mower is aware of its batteries as it queries them for their status and is happy to run with only one battery installed. The problem with this choice has to do with the physics of batteries. By running the batteries serially, that places maximum load on first one, then the other battery. Battery physics says that the higher the load, the more energy is wasted. It’s easy to see: take a battery and discharge it over one hour, then use the current draw to come up with an amp hour rating. Do the same thing over 10 hours and calculate that amp hour rating. The second one will be significantly higher than the first. Convert each to watt hours and you have energy, with the latter having provided much more than the former for the exact same battery. You’ll also have stressed the battery a lot less in the second case. Using its batteries in parallel would result in half the load on each battery resulting in improved runtime and less wear on each battery. --- I know that all those issues sounds like a lot, but overall it really is a pretty decent mower. Here are a couple of bonus tips for things that were not obvious to me when I made the switch to electric. Tip #1: It hadn’t occurred to me how much the fumes from my old gasoline powered mower were keeping away insects. I very quickly found a cloud of insects forming around my face with the new mower. Taking a page from my old hiking days, get yourself a broad brimmed hat (good idea to keep the sun off you anyway), and spray the brim with DEET (ASIN : B0738NCJMH). This keeps most insects away from your face without needing to slather chemicals on your skin. --- Tip #2: Use hearing protection! I’d thought that without an explosion engine running that hearing protection wouldn’t be necessary. Engine/motor-wise, this is true. What I didn’t recognize initially is how loud things like small sticks, pine cones, etc. slamming into the deck would be. If you have none of these things in your yard, the mower is pretty quiet, but otherwise hearing protection is a must.

This is a well constructed machine. The innovative technology that automatically switches from a drained battery to a charger battery, really cuts down time when working in the yard. The turbo boost self propelled is powerful.

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. The manufacturer will not stand by their 4 year warranty! I've used this mower for a little over a year and when my blades got stuck in heavy grass it stopped working. When I called Greenworks they said that the warranty isn't covered because a third party (Other) listed on my invoice) sold it to me. I was on the phone with Greenworks for an hour and they said for me to contact Amazon to find the reseller name. I called Amazon and they said it was Litheli. NO WHERE on my invoice is Litheli mentioned! Why?? So I emailed Litheli because they don't take calls and they said they don't honor the manufacturer's warranty either! They only honor Litheli products. So now I'm stuck with a broken mower that the manufacturer AND reseller both won't honor.

I have about an acre to mow. I didn't want to spend the money for a riding lawnmower. Glad I decided to give this mower a go. This works great on my lawn, especially the hilly areas. 2 batteries are nice. I end up using 3 batteries worth for my mowing job, Once the first battery is used up, I put it on the charger and it's ready to go after the second battery is used up.

Used it for the first time yesterday. This is a great mower. Plenty of power to cut through out thicker grass with no problems. Did not need to use the turbo boost. Pretty easy to put together as well. If you have a larger yard (we have 1/3 acre) I would recommend you only insert one battery at a time so that when you run out of juice you can put the other battery in and put the dead on one on the charger in case you need it to finish. On our first mow, we put them both in and it automatically switches to the full battery which is great, but we needed just a little more juice to finish up and then had 2 dead batteries. Starting with one and then putting the other one on the charger while you continue mowing will allow you for seamless completion of the job. We ordered the weed eater and blower and have not gotten them yet. Excited to try them out as well.

Only a couple of mows in, but so far this has been a great mower for us. The 25 inch mow is amazing, and the metal case is thinner than our old mower with plastic, which has the effect of getting the cutting surface closer to the edge of the mower. This, combined with the dual blades allowing the case to fit between the tires, means a mow right up to the edge. The dual batteries work well, and seem to have power to spare, and the quick dual charger gets them going again quickly, so I could see this being good for, sae, a kid making extra money mowing in his neighborhood. The unit is, however, quite heavy, so if getting it around involves any lifting, this might be a problem for some people.

I’m very happy with this battery lawn mower. The blade was super easy to assemble, and it comes with two batteries. It takes about 45 minutes to mow my lawn and uses only around 40% of one battery, so the autonomy is excellent. The battery charger is very efficient. The noise level is very reasonable, it looks great, and works very well overall. Definitely recommended!
