This is by far the best unboxing Greenworks Pro 80V Battery Lawn Mower! 👏👏👏 THANK YOU for sharing! 🤝 And thanks for mentioning the transport safety cautions.
I bought one a few weeks ago and do really like it. So easy to start after I figured it out prior to finding your video. It is a bit difficult to plug in the battery and get it out of the mower due to weak wrists but still much better then pulling a cord over and over to start. Still trying to figure out how to mow grass on the curb. It gets stuck. Maybe I need to raise the wheels? Just an old lady l learning how to do things. Now trying to figure out how to stand it up to store. Your video is excellent !!! I'm glad I found it.
I've gone through one season with a dual battery version of the Greenworks 80v mower, and so far it's been a great upgrade from my old 19" 40v mower that I'd hoped for. I gave the 40v Greenworks mower to a friend, and it's still going strong after seven years, but my yard is a little too large for the 40v to manage when I've been away and the grass gets 8 to 10" tall. The 80v is very powerful, but goes through batteries when cutting tall grass. With a sharp blade it performs just a strong as my supposed 6.5 hp Honda gas, which was about equal to a 5hp Briggs. I'd recommend 4ah or better batteries.
I have the self propelled version, which is nice when the grass bag is getting full. I don’t have any issues maneuvering it, so the extra weight of the drive is barely noticeable
I paid less for mine, but I also only got one battery. I love the two speed feature. I always hated how most mowers slow down when you run across thicker stuff but this one speeds up to adjust to the thicker stuff.
I was looking at the walmart one had only 1 battery but it sais (1) 4.0ah so vs the (2) 2.0ah so thats same just bigger battery? Maybe yours is the 4.0ah wich would be the same as 2 in this video.
Probably the best rewiev out there for this model!Thank you soooo much😊😉
Great review. I bought this same mower for my dad, in fact it comes in today. I really think he'll love it.
Greenworks should just put a link to your video in the manual. That's all that's needed in the manual.
I just wanted to comment to say this video is perfect and you explained everything I was looking for in a video. Thank you
Love my Greenworks mower; it’s actually fun to mow the grass.
Have an older Green works corded mower. Paid $88 new. Had over 6 years never had to sharpen blades . Of course in Minnesota snow 6 months a year! So let's say 3 years normal use. Love it, simple.
Very good video, ordered a self propelled version with two 80 volt batteries direct from Greenworks. Hope it works as good as your model.
Thanks for showing how to install everything some people just assume we know everything
I almost got the greenworks a couple of years ago but I ended up getting the Ryobi 40v because I already had Ryobi tools that used the same battery. I will never go back to gas. For small yards, electric is so much more covenant.
I just ordered one. I also opted for the "push" model.
Thanks for this review Detailed, concise and not overly opinionated.
Amazon sells used or open-boxed items as new. The price drops are most like used or open-boxed items.
The best review I have ever seen.
Thanks for this video... looking to buy my first battery mower right now... and so many seem to do reviews without discussing run time. I find it interesting that the batteries take close to the expected runtime to charge. Very good info to have. Thanks.
Funny im finding many stores i shop sell these online along with amazon and find another brand worx does the same. So glad to find a brand that isnt just exclusive to one hardware store and is sold by multiple stores, even if some are just online.
I just picked up a similar model not long ago - an updated handle is about the biggest difference I can see. So far I am very pleased with my purchase, and very impressed with the ergonomics and overall design.
THANKS YOU CONVINCED ME I MADE A GOOD CHOICE.. THANKS AGAIN..
Ive been looking at electric mowers, leaning towards buying one. Wish this model would include a simpler switch between the mulch and the bag options. I just flip a lever in my Toro, but I dont think this issue would be a deal breaker for me; just, why not make it simpler?
Costco routinely has the newer much improved version with the self propelled, better handle with controls, better latching mechanism for the collapsible handle and the dual battery slots for auto switchover onsale for 450 and that comes with two 4ah batteries.
I don't see it for $450. I see it for $529. Where are you looking and is it legit?
@@davidbueso3840It may have been regional, or maybe he physically saw promotion in the store, or both. There are times I have seen lower prices in the store than their website.
Great and in-depth review, - thank you!
Great video. As one that shoots video as well, your presentation and edits (love the snake miss) were very smooth. This helped immensely as well in my search for a battery mower. I have a long trail to mow so I have to consider that fact in my decision. Keep up the good work.
Top-notch presentation of the information! Thanks for doing this.
Thank you for your video on the Green Works lawn mower
good vid i liked your calming voice as you revied it!
Price went up $424, but not by much. Good review.
I'd liek to catch a gardner snake for an aquarium and feed it grashhoppers but i haven't seen to many.
Excellent review! Thx for taking the time.
Great review man. I'm also looking into electric mowers, this really helps.
Check Litheli:)
My parents bought this mower from Costco but the blades do not move. I have tried spinning the green part that says unlock but nothing happens.
I love mine, the blade is kinda of a soft metal, be careful what you run over. It doesn't last as long as I need it to, so I might go to three batteries, but at least its rapid charge
What are the heights or height adjustment measurements
Is 30 min use time for both batteries or each
The.self propelled mower is currently cheaper than yours at Best Buy, but spare batteries are cheaper on Amazon.
Up to $600 right now, July 4. I think this is the one I want but I'll wait for it to go down again. Maybe even until winter.
Only 346 today on Amazon
you have the most calming voice
My only problems with this is I've heard that replacement parts are hard to get and the customer service is bad. It would suck to have it break down and not be able to have it repaired.
Great video as guide! For the first-time battery charging before any use, how many hours do you take to make sure it's charged fully?
Nice video- Could you please identify the Greenworks Model number for the one in the video please? (There are a lot of different models, with all kinds of variations on one or two batteries, number of amp hours etc.)Thanks
Thanks
good luck to find one at that price today, i found one open box with no battery for 320 bucks on ebay
Great review! I just bought one and I hope it lasts a long time.
Very well done, thank you.
Excellent review. Thanks.
Whelp I’m sold. I was told not to go electric but willing to give it a try.
I have a Greenworks 80v 18" Chainsaw... Run it with a 5Ah battery, and swaped the chain to a semi-chisel type, and it is better than any 38-42cc gas powered unit I've ever used.
I can down a 24" round tree and take off 3 lengths with the 5Ah, I also have 2x 2Ah batteries as back up, I get 2 lengths with each small battery.
Great video,very informative 👍
I believe the weight is 90lbs, which I read on Costco website and that is not much lighter than the gas mowers actually
Edward Norton Jr. Why are you doing lawn mower reviews??
How is the brushless? Is it way better than with brushes? Will it ever need maintenance?
Does anyone having problems with the battery charger, ever outlet we plugged in pops and parks? Sounds like a bad charger. Only weeks old
Great video
Assembling that handle was a pain in the a$$. It wouldn't stay straight. I just put it back in the box. So much for mowing my lawn today! How on earth did you hold it straight up while screwing in both sides?! I'll try it the way you did it tomorrow. Hopefully it works!
Mine is self propelled and has 2 80v batteries. 500 bucks at Costco
Gas more power, less expensive short term and long term because of battery prices
Dont Buy.
Mine worked 6 times on 1/4 lawn before it stopped working. The battery switchover function only worked the first mow - never worked after that. I really loved the mower while it worked, it was fast, quiet and cut really well. I stored the batteries in the house and the mower in the shed. Tried customer support, was on hold 20 minutes before giving up. Going back to Costco. sigh...
What does “brushless” motor mean?
Is the cutting blade steel?
Thank You for your review. I’m trying to pick my first electric mover between EGO, Toro and Green
Works… any big reason why you picked GreenWorks?
Thank you. No particular reason that I picked the GreenWorks. Mainly because I had seen it recommended before, and it just so happened to be on sale at the time when I was looking. The EGO and Toro could be just as good or better.
I had the Kobalt 80 volt from Lowes for a few years, gave it to someone else, and now it’s starting its 5th year and their happy with it. This will be my 2nd year with the GreenWorks.
Regardless, I’m very happy with the electric mowers. And won’t buy gas again; it’s a whole different experience mowing the yard.
Why do you side discharge? Does that mean you have to rake the grass after mowing?
How much meters ( M2 ) with 2 batterys 4 Ah Thanks.
So how do you clean under the deck without water?
Plastic scraper, stiff brush, wet cloth
Does anyone know where I can purchase a GreenWorks riding mower? Thanks
Replacement batteries cost a fortune! Wait till replacement batteries are commodities!
I got one of these for $60 on craigslist
Wow👍🔥🔊《☆》Lucky Dawg🖖😎☮
I has a EV SunJoe mower and pres washer, Ryobi hedge trimmer, and without any doubt, time to cutthe cord and gas!
Is the run time 30 min per battery or is it for both of them ?
Mine came with a 90 minute battery. The smallest battery is 30 minutes.
Greenworks has the worst customer service I have ever had the misfortune to experience
EGO isn’t much better
I can't get the battery off of the charger? I don't see anywhere on the charger or the battery how to release it? Help?
You remove the battery by pulling the battery. Don’t pull ‘upwards’ on the battery, pull it ‘outwards’ from the charger. It would be the exact opposite way of how you put it on the charger. It might take a little force, but it’ll slide off the charger. Hope that helps.
@@ImChillToo Thank you. I was afraid I might break something if I forced it, so I pulled it outwards more forcefully. I should have mowed today but I didn't. I haven't mowed with this new mower yet. It seems like it's heavier than our other electric mower.
Has anyone noticed if their motor shaft is wobbly/not true? I have two 21" non self propelled 80 volt mowers and one self propelled and all 3 the shafts are wobbly and so each end of the blade does not travel on the same plane, but rather roughly close to 1/2" apart which is not good and likely affects the cut quality. Here is a video I made attempting to show mine. If nothing else, you can see the wobble in the plastic piece with the fins...

Also in the self propelled there was an extra screw in the drive wheel which started to destroy the plastic gear. I've heard of others having that too. As if a worker in the factory leaves it in there for the fun of it.
i bought a similar greenworks to this 4 years ago and it was awful, i had to take it back and exchange it for a webb petrol mower, the battery lasted 15 minutes and took over an hour to charge, it was very weak, the guy in the shop thought the battery was too weak for the power needed to run it, the cut was ok but just a puny mower
Sorry I will keep my older Murray Briggs and Stratton over this 4 primes one pull and she cranks. She cuts my 1/4 lawn and lawn looks way better than electric mowed. I have seen my neighbor who bought one of these and my lawn looks 10 times better.
Mine holds two batteries at the same time.
You have the newer version
Lousy unit. I used it first time fully charged battery and it cuts off every 3 to 4 minutes
Thanks
