20” vertical storage brushless mower works great
Assembly was an ease, charged battery full before first mowing. I have a small lawn, 0.2 Acre plot w house. Can mow entire lawn w 1/4 charge. 2nd Greenworks product. 1st was the 16” chainsaw. Both products work great. Like the mower w metal mower body vs plastic. 3 mowing sessions and still impressed. Looking forward to expanding w more greenworks products that fit the 40V 4Ah battery.
Happy Greenworks Owner

Poor cut quality. Poor battery life.
I have used this lawn mower 3 times now. The battery only last about 20 minutes or so. The cut quality is poor. It misses allot of blades of grass even if I go over it twice. I don't reccommend this mower. Sorry. I wanted to give it a good review but I have to be honest. I would like to send it back for a refund.

    This mower is worth every penny.
    This is the best mower I've ever owned. It is lightweight. It cuts beautifully. 7 different cutting levels. The bag is easy to empty. I was able to mow for an hour and still had battery life.

    MORE MONEY WASTED!!
    Extremely disappointed. i bought this last year. only used a couple of times (not mùch grass). Put away for winter. Just pulled it out and it isnt working at all. This is the 2nd big item I bought from Walmart that was defective. Battery charges but nothing happens!!! Really getting fed up with Walmart. Either they're out of stock or broken or defective. Been a loyal customer for 30 years. Company has really gone down hill.

    Good mower but disappointing battery
    Like the mower. Solid, well-made. Cuts well. Small grass catcher, but don't plan to use it every time. Only downside is the battery cut out 1/2 way thru the backyard (after finishing the front). NOT a big yard, run time was about 25-30 minutes tops. Bought a second battery, will try switching out and see if that solves anything.

    Greenworks mower -- well built.
    Grass bag, side discharge or mulching. 1 lever to adjust cut height. Easy start. Easy assembly. Haven't used it yet because you need green, growing grass -- too early in Montana. But started up and sounded good in garage. Seems to be a solid, well-built machine. Looking forward to putting it to use. Have a Greenworks snowblower and been using it for 3 or 4 seasons now. If the mower works as well, will be very satisfied.

    Experience so far not the best
    Mower arrived yesterday. Fast shipping. Read the enclosed booklet. Attached handle as instructed. Plugged in charger and attached battery and the "diagnostic charger" glowed a solid red (for the battery charging). Reviewed instructions---that solid red is not listed. Repeated several times and same result so charger is obviously not diagnosing as advertised. Put battery in mower and it started ?!* Left off charger then as it was obviously charged to some degree but that was never indicated by the light colors. Mowed a few minutes today and battery has obviously run down so is on charger again. If this is how this is gonna' work, it's more than a little frustrating. On low blade height which is what I bought it for to eliminate thatch from building in my lawn, it won't cut but cuts off. Frustrating there too. Would I purchase again? Not sure.

    Regretful purchase
    Stopped working after the 7th time. Comes with warranty but minimum you get charged for repair is $50. Don’t buy Greenworks.

    Great mower!
    Buy an extra backup, but lasts about 45min and does a great job!

    Happy with my switch to electric.
    I am thrilled with this lawnmower. I replaced an old 21” gas mower with this and am not disappointed. I have a 10000 square foot lot that i can mow on one charge. It's lightweight and easily maneuverable around my main home's yard. No fumes or smells. No yanking on the starter, and very quiet.

    A peaceful mowing experience.
    I just love cutting with the battery powered push mower from greenworks it is so quiet. I can hear my cell phone ring and talk on the phone too while I keep on pushing. Also no complaints of noise from whoever I am talking to. Battery life is spot on with about how long I want to push before a water break. I cut a little over one acre with this and use two batteries. The other battery came with my greenworks chainsaw that is awesome also. If you want to get a little exercise and not suck up carbon monoxide while cutting your lawn an electric push mower is the way to go. Buy one you will like it because it has no air filter, gas, spark plug, oil, and the main thing no pull string to start it. I highly recommend this mower.

    Does not get the job done
    My BIL bought two and gave us one of them. We have less than .2 of an acre to mow and it takes four charges (and two days) just to do it. Also if the grass is just barely above your ankle forget it. This mower stops every single time it hits a small patch of tall grass and you have to start it up all over again. So i find myself going over most my lawn with a weed eater before i can even mow it just so the mower doesn't struggle. Literally buy any other mower, this one is NOT worth it.

    Awesome machine !!
    What a great mower !!! Light, quiet and compact when you fold the handle. It does a great job on the lawn, and I love how the mower compensates when encountering heavier grass !! The best part... NO GASOLINE !!!! Nothing but a positive experience !!!!!!!

    Great mower
    Honestly, I'm pretty impressed with this lawn mower. I mulch the grass into the lawn, and it does a really good job of it. It is powerful enough to get the job done as well as a grass powered mower albeit I do have to make an occasional second pass on to get all the grass. I have a house on about .17 acre and the front and backyards are all grass. I can easily mow everything in about 30-35 minutes and there is usually one bar of battery left. It doesn't kick up much dust, which saves my sinuses. Also, I really like how easy it is to stow. I knocked a star off because fedex (their chosen shipping partner) knocked a big ole hole in the box and they had to re-print the label to get it to me - I am very grateful no parts slipped out.

    Terrible battery life.
    It does well mowing the grass but it runs out of battery so quickly it's a joke. I don't have a big lawn (16x24~) and a front lawn (10x18~). It took me 8 charges to mow the entire lawn. Even with two batteries, it took 3.5 charges to finish mowing the whole lawn.

    Good Buy
    This has been one of the best purchases in quite awhile. Easy to use, light weight, and low noise. Another great feature is not having to remember gas. My yard is just a bit too large to mow on 4.0 amps, but I can on 5.0 amps. A spare battery is worth the extra money if you have a large space. I highly recommend the 40V mower.

    Great upgrade
    This is an upgrade of my original Greenworks Mower. I've mowed my lawn 6 times with this and I love it. It has multiple handle positions, multiple height positions, cleaning cuts grass and weeds and I love how it stores vertically. I would highly recommend this, but definitely get another battery.

    Upgraded
    I purchased this 20-inch Cordless mower as an upgrade to my Greenworks 25302. After 7 years, it was still working but I wanted to go to a brushless motor. I'm very pleased with this mower. It does a fantastic job on our lawn. I love the upright storage, too.
