From the Manufacturer
The GreenWorks products that you purchase have a ZERO carbon footprint. We'll say that again - our entire product line will never release an ounce of carbon emission into the air. 4 Year Warranty - Double The Industry Standard. When looking for lawn tools, we know you're thinking about quality. You're looking for something that will get the job done and get you back to your weekend. That's why GreenWorks backs every tool with a full four-year warranty - we know our products will perform at the highest level and always be reliable. GreenWorks high quality products are manufactured to last. That's why we back every product with a warranty that's twice the industry standard. We'll provide all the power you need without polluting the air or forcing you to keep hauling your gas can to the nearest station (especially in the middle of a mow). No more tune-ups or maintenance. No more emissions. Fifty-four million Americans mow their lawns every weekend, according to the EPA, using 800 million gallons of gas each year. Along the way, homeowners spill more than 17 million gallons of gas while refueling. That's equivalent to the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster. It's time to move beyond clumsy, harmful gas-powered mowers. It's time for GreenWorks to be your lawn tools for life.

I had originally ordered the 79 dollar one, but it kept saying it was available but it was not shipping. Finally, after chatting with Amazon support, I learned they really had NO idea when it was going to come. In desperation, as my grass continued to grow despite the delay in the lawn mower's arrival, I went with this one.
This cuts the grass very well, but does not cut the weeds, which means I still have to go back over with the weed whacker/trimmer. Its grass catcher, which was one of the reasons why I bought it, fell off about 5 times the first 2 times I attempted mowing, and now we don't even use it anymore. If you go with a reel, go with one that doesn't have a catcher. Near as I can tell, it isn't worth it. I would not recommend this product.

I have converted from a gas-powered mower, and do not regret it. This thing is clean, quiet, and the grass looks great. The catcher works pretty well, too, although it is not that big.
My biggest surprise was that it is actually fairly easy to push. I was expecting a workout, but it's actually more like a walk in the park....
Two thumbs up!

Having moved into our first house with a yard, I was committed to care for the lawn myself and not hire out. I researched lawn care heavily and began the routines that most recommend (water heavily and infrequently, mow high, don't cut more than 1/3" the length when mowing, organic fertilizers, get a soil test, etc.). Given my yard is small, I wanted to give a reel-type mower a shot. Also, didn't want any gasoline tanks in the garage.
I spent quite a bit of time researching reel mowers and most seem to be good. For what I wanted to pay, the Greenworks model fit the bill. The primary reason you choose a reel-type mower is because of the way it cuts (scissor like). The tips of the blade have very clean cuts and in the Texas heat, rotary-cut lawns and their frayed tips get very brown giving a uniformly poor appearance. Hence, the reason I did not go with a rechargeable rotary-type. For the Greenworks, here is my take after the first mowing season:
Pros
- Clean, scissor like cut
- Fairly easy to push and maneuver
- No gasoline needed!
Cons
- Taller weeds/grass require multiple passes
- Uneven terrain makes is very difficult to keep the blade spinning
- Handle feels very flimsy
- Height settings are very limited compared to other reel mowers (highest is 2.75")
- Grass catcher is almost pointless
- Although self-powered, it is louder than one would think
I am committed to keep cutting my lawn with a reel-type mower. I like the size and eco-friendly nature, but most of all, love the cut. Based on reviews, it seems there are better models out there that would be better suited for varied terrain, grass heights and overall durability. I may unload this locally and spend the extra money on the Fiskars, which seems to be in the lead...by far.
