The Greenworks Pro 60V 21-inch self-propelled mower delivers professional-grade performance with a robust steel deck, over an hour of runtime, and smart features like auto-switching dual batteries and Turbo Mode. Ideal for lawns up to 1/4-acre, it offers gas-like power without the noise, emissions, or maintenance. With a 4-year warranty and multiple cutting options, it’s a top choice for eco-conscious homeowners.
Upgraded Design and Performance Make It a Standout Choice
Greenworks’ 60V line continues to impress with its latest iteration—the Pro 60V 21-inch self-propelled lawn mower. Featuring a durable steel deck, extended runtime, and smart upgrades, this model is a strong contender in the battery-powered mower market.
Key Features and Improvements
The mower comes equipped with a 21-inch steel deck, ideal for tougher conditions, and includes both standard and high-lift blades for versatile cutting. With two 4.0Ah batteries, users can expect over an hour of runtime, while Turbo Mode provides extra power for thick grass.
One notable update is the dual-port battery system, which automatically switches to a fresh battery when one depletes. A battery level gauge on the handle eliminates the need to manually check power levels. Additionally, the single-point height adjustment offers seven cutting positions (1.38 to 4 inches) for convenience.
Enhanced Usability and Storage
Greenworks has refined the handle adjustment mechanism, making vertical storage easier with top-mounted latches. The new lever-based controls for blade and self-propel functions require minimal effort, improving user comfort.
Performance and Cut Quality
In testing, the mower delivered consistent power across various grass types, though Turbo Mode was rarely needed for routine mowing. The high-lift blade improved mulching and bagging efficiency, though side discharge performance lagged slightly behind gas models.
With a runtime of 1 hour and 4 minutes on two batteries, it exceeded Greenworks’ estimate. However, users should note that backing up requires a slight forward push to disengage the drive wheels—a minor but occasional inconvenience.
Pricing and Warranty
Available at The Home Depot, the mower comes in two kits:
- $399 (1 x 5.0Ah battery)
- $509 (2 x 4.0Ah batteries)
Both options include a 4-year warranty, making this a reliable choice for homeowners with lawns up to 1/4-acre—or larger properties if opting for the dual-battery kit.
Conclusion
The Greenworks Pro 60V 21-inch self-propelled mower balances power, runtime, and usability, though its reverse maneuverability could be smoother. For smaller yards, the 5.0Ah kit offers excellent value, while the dual-battery version extends capability for bigger jobs.
