Greenworks (16") G-Max 40-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless 2-In-1 Lawn Push Mower

Greenworks is a name I have become more familiar with over the last year. I really love their products and they seem to make good stuff. So let’s talk about the cut report for this 40V battery operated lawnmower. First is the good news. If you’re the type to stay on top of your lawn mowing, this is a great mower. Very lightweight and easy to maneuver. The battery life is great and the fact that it comes with two batteries, makes cutting and finishing your lawn great. You really shouldn’t have any down time. The mower did a great job bagging my grass and I love the handle on the bag for emptying it. Adjusting the height is very easy as it only has one lever for adjustments.

Okay, the bad item is if you are like me and tend to get busy with your week, you will tend to forget to mow and you look like the neighbor from hell with tall grass, yes that is me. I wasn’t too impressed with the mower cutting through tall grass. Yes, it will cut tall grass, but you have to go very slow. I know, I should raise the deck and cut it, then lower and cut it again. Well that’s my problem, who has time to do that? If I had time to do that, I would have never let it get long in the first place.

Bottom line is for shorter grass this lawn mower is great. Very easy to use, does a great job cutting shorter grass and good battery life. If you tend to let your grass grow long, you might not be too happy with the performance of this mower.

After using this mower a few times I find myself very pleased with my choice. I have a small lawn so this small and very light mower is all that I need. Since I only use about 1/4 of a full charge for the lawn I plan on purchasing the string trimmer and use the same battery for the trimmer.
The adjustable mowing height works fine with my desired grass height. After my first use I sharpened the the dull factory blade which really made a difference in the cutting action. The blade is fairly mild steel so it will probably have to be sharpened at least once a year for my small lawn.

We mow frequently (2x/week) so the grass is NOT high. The mower clogs up every 50 ft or so. You have to stop and unclog the bottom of the mower since the grass sticks so thick to the underside that the mower stalls out. Also, the batteries don't last 90 min as touted. We took ours back and bought a gas mower. Lowes was wonderful and took the return even though it was over 30 days. Needless to say, we bought our gas mower there. What a disappointment this mower was!!!

Pros:
Light weight - my gf helped me out with the yard and she had no problem pushing it around.
Very quiet - I was pleasantly surprised when I turned it on.
Folding handles- This is small, and the folding handles help with storage, the grip is comfortable too.
Small size- allows this lawnmower to be very maneuverable and easily cut grass in hard to get areas.
Warranty- 4 years!!! that's awesome although I hope I don't have to use it.

Cons:
Battery- Because of the small size of the lawnmower it takes longer to cut my lawns and It died on me when I mowed both the front and back lawns. I only had another 40 sqft of lawn left. Both front and rear combined are aprox. 1250 sqft.

Conclusion:
Overall I'm very happy with the lawnmower especially the price, similar ones sell at Home Depot for $100 more.

I had a 21 in. front wheel drive mower, recently I have been having leg problems as I have a fairly small lawn (about 1600 sq. ft.) the continual backing and turning with the gas mower was really trying.

This mower is light, very effective, and I enjoy cutting grass again. Mind you this is very early days yet, so in a year or so my opinion may be altered, but for the present I'm really pleased with this product. Although I thought it is a bit expensive! 4 yr warranty,
and 2yr. on the battery, I found no other product offered this!

I have a very small yard. Mowing the entire yard uses about 1/4 of the battery life. Everything worked out of the box, once the battery was fully charged. The rpm is high enough to cut clean, even stalks. The bagger is easy to attach and detach. The mower is very light and folds easily, making maneuvering easy and storage easier. The only minor downside is the fact that is doesn't pick up bigger leaves as a gas mower would do. I have not had to contact customer service yet, and there are no service providers nearby, so that may prove to be a problem.

I bought this mower looking for something light weight, durable, and something I could manage myself. I am 73 yrs old and this mower fit every need and then some. The seller is very reliable and prompt as a matter of fact. It had been delivered 2 days early. I'm very happy and will continue to purchase more tools to help with my yard upkeep.

It was nice but 2 things not so great about it.

1) Buying additional battery is hard to find as it is out of stock.

2) The lawnmower won't start after 2 months of buying it. Send it back to manufacturer and the manufacturer could not repair it. What a waste of money.

It did not turn on I called manufacture, I waited 20 minutes to talk to someone after 3 times, each waiting well over 15minutes. Customer agent said something like the black knob should be down position for machine to start. No such luck, I am returning this one to get gas-run lawnmower I thought that I will help environment by using electric one.

Oct 1st brand new (2-in-1 40V electric lawn mower), charged the battery (2hrs) indicated full charge! Tried to install the start key, did not fit, another key from the store still no go! Customer support suggested to return the unit to the store. Got my refund from Cn. Tire. It proves the poor quality control at GREENWORKS. A final inspection should have eliminated the hassle of lost time, gasoline and most of all my confidence in this brand.

Very good for a battery mower, plenty of power, quiet, and easy to use. Good buy.
