Greenworks 80V 42 inch zero turn is an electric mower aimed at low maintenance mowing with strong battery performance and very little noise. The 80V ecosystem gets praise for powering larger yards, and the included batteries are reported to last years in regular use, with some still going strong after four to ten years. The 4 year battery warranty and the ability to use the same batteries across other Greenworks tools add appeal. Main concerns are battery replacement cost, proprietary packs, and uncertainty about long term availability, especially if the line changes or the mower is pushed hard on bigger lawns.
Greenworks battery-system owners who already run other 80V tools, because the same batteries can keep a mower and other yard tools going for years.
Shoppers comfortable with battery-powered yard tools for smaller lawns, because the batteries can stay cool enough and last well when the mower is not run for an hour at a time.
Homeowners with medium-to-large yards who want low-noise mowing, because the 60V version finished a little over 2 acres with battery left and needs almost no maintenance.
Buyers who want a gas-free mower for routine weekly cutting, because one setup has lasted nearly 10 years on a half-acre and still holds 80-90% capacity.
Shoppers who need a mower platform with guaranteed long-term parts continuity, because proprietary batteries can be discontinued and become hard to replace.
Buyers planning long mowing sessions on large properties, because battery heat and runtime can become a concern when the mower runs for about an hour each cut.
That risk exists because the batteries are proprietary and past battery lines have been discontinued by other brands. If Greenworks changes form factors or drops a line, future replacements may be harder to source than gas-mower parts.
Reported battery life ranges from about 4 years to nearly 10 years depending on use. One 40V setup still had 80-90% capacity after just under 10 years, while another 80V set was still going strong after a little over 4 years.
They can be charged immediately, but letting them cool for about two hours after mowing is recommended to help extend battery life. Charging only when they are very hot is the main caution mentioned.
It can handle large properties, with one 60V Greenworks owner mowing a little over 2 acres and still finishing with about 30% battery left. The tradeoff is that longer, heavier mowing sessions may put more heat and wear on the batteries.
I think i spend maybe $12 to do an oil and filter change on my JD zero turn. I don't think i would compare oil changes to replacing these batteries.
My oil filter costs that much alone not to mention the oil and time spent. But I do get Kawa brand supplies (sucker). Either way it's not nothing and with batteries constantly improving the risk is becoming less and less
I believe you are correct and that is the electric scam. Every few years buying new batteries for all these battery powerd yard tools is not worth not having to use gas. I fell for it a few years back and bought kobalt string trimmer, blower, hedge trimmer a couple extra batteries. Few years later and very light use those batteries don't hold more than a few minutes charge each. I go thru probably four batteries to weedeat my house of about 20 minutes of use. I will eventually buy a gas powered, commercial stihl weed eater and never have to buy another one the rest of my life. Only battery handheld tools like drills and screw guns i still like and recommend.
My ryobi 40v recon batteries and tools I got from factory direct have been fine for 5+ years now. YMMV I guess

All of these batteries degrade with time and charging. Its not really will they fail before the warranty is up or not, they probably won't, but they will hold less and less of a charge as they age. Eventually they will need replaced to be able to get the job done. The bigger your yard is the quicker that will be needed also. When mine were new i could use one battery to trim my whole yard and now i need to make sure all of em are charged before i start to get it done.
Imo, electric yard tools, especially mowers are a waste of money. If ya got the money and you just don't want to mess with gas, have at it. To each their own
Just got this one last week. Love it. Had their 80v 21 inch push mower from Costco that I absolutely loved and use various other 80v tools from Greenworks. Batteries have lasted alittle over 4 years and going strong .
Oh. I never heard this before and curious where you got this information from. I usually just pop them on the charger unless its really hot from a summer mow.
"Make sure you let your batteries cool for two hours after mowing before you recharge to extend the life of the batteries."
I read that advice on the deal post when I purchased my mower. It was a random comment but it made sense to me. I don't mind going back after a few hours to plug in the charger just in case it does extend the life of the batteries.

Yes. The "charge your device while you ride" feature refers to a USB port for charging a cell phone, not an extension-cord power outlet.
