We researched Greenworks's official pricing, terms, product pages, help pages and outside reviews. We haven't used Greenworks ourselves, so this is a research-based review, not a hands-on test.

Who it’s best for

  • Homeowners with small to mid-size lawns.
  • People switching from gas tools.
  • Buyers who want one battery for many tools.

Who should skip it

  • Probably not the best fit if you want the longest warranty.

How it works day to day

This part draws on Greenworks’s own product pages, help center and documentation, read October 29, 2026 (listed under Sources). We haven’t used Greenworks ourselves.

What it costs

Prices checked October 29, 2026, from Greenworks’s own pricing page unless noted. Prices change often, so check the official page before you buy.

  • Pro 80V 21-inch cordless mower $479.99 (official store, checked October 29, 2026).

What we like

  • 4-year limited warranty on tool and battery for this mower.
  • Many tools share one battery platform.
  • Lower prices than some premium battery brands.
  • Quieter than gas.

What to watch for

  • Trustpilot showed 1.7 out of 5 from about 1,527 reviews as of October 29, 2026, with 82% 1-star reviews.
  • Returns only for unused items.
  • Riding mowers are final sale.

The fine print

  • Returns within 30 days, unused, in original packaging.
  • Keep receipts for warranty claims.
  • Battery platforms differ; check compatibility.

The main alternative: EGO Power+

We link to it plainly; it has no affiliate program we could find.

What it costs: Mowers from about $329, checked October 29, 2026

Pick GreenworksChecked by Vetteroo if you…

  • want lower prices.
  • want a big tool range.
  • have a smaller lawn.

Pick EGO Power+ if you…

  • want a longer tool warranty.
  • want a widely reviewed platform.
  • have a bigger lawn.

Our take

Greenworks is a budget-friendly way to switch to battery yard tools, but reviews are weak and returns are only for unused items.
