Due to its larger rear wheels, easy start and quiet motor, the Greenworks Pro 60V Cordless 21″ Self-Propelled Brushless Lawn Mower is a joy to use, despite a couple of quirks mentioned earlier. I expect the steel deck to hold up under punishing use for years. Now I just have to purchase an extra battery to handle my large backyard. The handle houses a “Turbo-Mode” button, self-propelled drive-speed lever, and a battery life indicator so you’ll always know how much battery life is left. If you’re using two batteries, the mower will completely deplete one and then automatically switch to the other rather than use both simultaneously.
We also enjoyed that we didn’t have to tug an extension cord along as we moved around our yard. The battery-powered device proved especially useful near our fenced-in garden and the set of stairs that run up an ivy-covered hill where we’d typically have to painstakingly rake out the leaves. For homeowners the benefits of a cordless chainsaw are huge. Most homeowners neglect proper maintenance of small gas engines ultimately leading to difficulty starting the motor and costly repairs. Battery-powered cordless chainsaws eliminate those hassles completely.
You can typically get faster acceleration if you want from electric (ever ride in a Tesla?), and we like the extra attention here. We turned it on and off quite a bit, but were able to clear our driveway, patio, garage area, and move debris from all of our flower beds. We loved that we were able to blow leaves from anywhere no matter how cramped or cluttered, but the battery lasted 50 minutes at most. The Greenworks Pro 80V Cordless Brushless Axial Blower is a smart choice for those who have small or hard-to-reach outdoor areas. Its limited battery life is a major downfall, though.
HOWEVER, if I had to buy an electric mower this is one that I would seriously consider.Compared to other electric mowers like the Sun Joe, Ryobi, or the Dewalt, this one has a tad more experience. When it comes to outdoor power equipment, Greenworks Pro puts the emphasis on power. We understand that Homeowners and Prosumers take on jobs of all sizes and need pro-grade products with long-lasting performance. Our high-efficiency brushless motors deliver Better than Gas™ performance – without the noise, mess and fumes that gas powered products produce. It all adds up to give you the line of outdoor power equipment you deserve.
Discard the box and package in compliance with local regulations. Never make any adjustments or repairs with the motor running. Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight in order to ensure the equipment is in safe working condition. DoMow across the face of slopes; never mow up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
But compared to most gas lawn mowers, the Greenworks GLM is much lighter, and consequently easier to push and manage. It provides a smooth, clean lawn cut with the ideal 21-inch cutting width, and the battery is quite responsive. However, there is a glaring omission in this mower – there’s no safety key. You have to physically take the battery out if you want to make sure the motor can’t turn on with an accidental button press. Greenworks shook up the battery-powered OPE market with its 25-inch commercial mower a while back. Now they have a 60V version for homeowners and it has some updates for this season.

Don’t overreach, keep proper footing and balance at all times. Many injuries occur as a result of the mower being pulled over the foot during a fall caused by slipping or tripping. If you feel you are losing your footing, release the control handle immediately and the blade will stop rotating within three seconds. I invested in the mower/two battery kit, the string trimmer and the leaf blow. Due to health issues, I had been paying for my lawn to be mowed for over a decade, so the initial investment was large (~$1,000), but when I did the math, the ROI would be one year .
The rest of the design also tries to put the “Pro” into the Greenworks Pro. Take the wheels, for example – these are some of the largest and most ruggedized wheels we’ve seen on a mower. If you have outdoor lawns separated by dirt paths or need to navigate gravel walkways, cobblestones, rocky edges, and anything else tricky during your mowing session, these wheels can handle it all. We love that you can fold the handle forward on this mower to store it vertically. It works easily—more easily than any other system we’ve used. You release the handle forward by pulling up on the green tabs.
If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns. Check bag frequently for deterioration and wear, and replace worn bags. Check that replacement bags comply with the original manufacturer’s recommendations or specifications.
