Greenworks Pro 80V Self-Propelled 21-Inch Cordless Lawn Mower

R. Anderson: I had an entry-level Greenworks mower that lasted for about six years, and is still going, but I can't get the right-sized blade for it, and it has been starting to cut unevenly. I also thought about hiring someone to do my lawn because I am getting on in years, but then went for a better Greenworks machine that has the self-propelled option. It came ONE DAY after I ordered it, and it is a lot heavier than my previous machine. The self-propelled part took a little getting used to because when it is engaged, even at the lowed setting, this machine forges ahead at a rapid pace. Finished the lawn in half the time and it looks better than it has for years. Already I love this machine. I should add that it is well-designed, so that I can easily disengage and reengage the self-propelled drive. Nice big powerful battery - still had plenty of charge when all the parts of my lawn were finished. It is a wonderful tool that really delivers.

Natalie K. Whitesel: Easty to assemble out of the box: take all the small stuff out first (e.g., battery, charger, cardboard inserts); turn the box on the end with the rear of the mower and roll it out.
I replaced a rather good gas-powered mower that gave me several years of service, but it broke down. I spent extra to get a mulch kit for it.
This mower is packaged ready to mulch. The blade is "factory" sharp--no one wants to cut themselves unpacking and get blood on everything--I left it that way for the first trial.
My grass was tall because my gas mower broke down, and I waited for this mower to arrive. The drive takes a little getting used to; this is not necessarily a negative in my opinion. Rear-wheel drive is a plus on hills. The transmission has its own motor--not belt-driven like my gas mower. The speed is adjustable, which is a feature you want. The drive takes a few seconds to come up to speed--no problem in my mind. When disengaged, the drive won't let you pull the mower back right away--it takes about 2 seconds to "relax." The remedy is to stop the drive NEAR the end of your run and just push it out (the mower is light enough), then you will be able to pull the mower back for the...

Kindle Customer: The only reason I'm not giving it five starts is because getting the battery out is a little difficult. You have to press really hard on the lever inside the cover to get the battery to disengage. It would helpful if the instructions said to press down hard until you hear it click. It just says to press the lever, which I did several times not knowing that you have to press it HARD until you hear it click. Also, I gave it four stars, not five, for assembly because the handle doesn't attach easily. You have to line it up just right and push and turn the knob just right for it to latch hold of the threads so you can screw it on. One of it's selling features is the you can easily store it compactly. I don't think I'll ever be unscrewing the hand to lay is down and then set it up and screw the knobs on again.

Enough of the negative. Onto what's good about the mower.

I have about a 1/4 acre lot, with a fair amount of lawn that needs mowing. The battery life was plenty to mow the whole yard (with some juice left over) on one charge. The charger isn't lightning fast, but it was pretty quick (you don't have to wait hours for the battery to charge). I also did not want a...
