Through this analysis, we’ve determined the best you should buy. Do not let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based materials touch the plastic parts. Chemicals can cause damage to the plastic, and make the plastic unserviceable. Do not go up and down on a slope, mow across the face of the slope. Be careful when you change the direction on a slope.
Greenworks was thoughtful enough to include headlights on the Pro 60V Lawn Mower—headlights! The LED lights are bright and can allow extra minutes at dusk to finish mowing a lawn. The lights are bright enough to mow in the dark if you want without disturbing anyone. But that’s not recommended in bug-infested Florida, so I don’t. Note that the lights are always on—there is no on/off switch.
The tension on the bar seems to hold longer and because the design team chose captured nuts, there’s no risk of dropping or losing them. However, you do need to make sure your scrench is with you at all times since there’s no onboard storage for it. Besides, it feels good to be able to do a little something to help Mother Earth. And the convenience of starting the mower by simply pushing a button is a time and headache-saving convenience that’s, well, priceless. Yep, I spent about $600 for the Greenworks Pro 21 and an extra battery, when I could have bought a new gas-powered model for half that.
However, the battery-operated device comes with a four-year limited warranty and two-year battery warranty, which is a good deal. I’ll also recuperate the difference in cost over that period by not having to buy gas. The Greenworks Pro moves 500 cubic feet of air per minute which makes it one of the most powerful electric leaf blowers on the market. We found it was able to easily move small sticks, pine cones, and even wet piles of leaves.
This would allow you to mow before the sun comes up or as it is setting. Allowing people to get their work done earlier and “take their weekends back”. Too many are simply trying to capitalize on affiliate revenue. And often they review only the products that provide the most kickbacks when you buy.
If you have a small space or hard-to-reach areas that usually need to be hand-raked , this cordless blower may be worth the investment. One drawback to the Greenworks’ design is that it must be stored indoors so inclement weather doesn’t affect the battery’s ability to hold a charge. We prefer to keep our yard equipment in our shed or garage, but in this case, we’ve had to make room for it in the basement.
