Product Information

My only criticism with this mower is the fact that you can only charge one battery at a time due to the single battery charger.

Of course, it will set you back a pretty penny compared to some of the less sophisticated cordless mowers, but its performance is more than worth it. Some manufacturers will offer a direct repair or replacement service (as applicable) which will often resolve your problem more quickly. Whilst an all cloth collection bag is the best option for better air circulation and effective cutting collection, there is no grass box full indicator. The GreenWorks lithium system of tools requires none of that - plus its charging systems have received the Environmental Protection Agency's ENERGY STAR® approval rating. The Greenworks GD40LM46SPK2x is a battery powered self-propelled cordless lawn mower that is supplied with two 2Ah 40v Samsung lithium-ion battery and is suitable for lawns up to 750m².

For example, there are no fumes, emissions, noise levels are far lower and there are no ongoing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the LED battery lights will let you know when they need to be placed in the charger again, so there is no chance that you will ever run out of juice unexpectedly. Thanks to the variable speed control of the cordless lawnmower, you can adjust the pace individually to your walking speed. I’m a stroke victim so I needed a mower that was self propelled and this is so easy to use plus the fact that I don’t have to be careful about electric cables.

The Greenworks GD40LM46SPK is supplied with both mulching and side-discharge plugs, a safety key and is covered by a 3 year Greenworks warranty (2 year on battery). At 89 years I now have difficulty pushing, on a slight incline, my Bosch Battery Lawn Mower and decided to look for a Lawn Mower that was Self-propelled. ENERGY STAR-approved battery chargers, which are held to tight efficiency guidelines determined by the Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy, reduce energy usage by an average of 35 per cent from conventional garden tools.

The Greenworks GD40LM46SPK2x battery-powered lawnmower features a hefty 46cm cutting width, which gives you more coverage on each pass than a lot of other tools in this class. You are getting a very generous grass collection bag with this mower, at 55 litres, you won’t spend vast amounts of time going back and forth to the compost heap or recycling bin with your grass cuttings. In addition, as I said you’ll be benefiting from an impressive run time and a lot of little features that make using this machine a breeze. Right away, you will notice that this Greenworks 46cm self-propelled mower is a significantly more powerful and effective cordless lawn mower than many of the other tools on the market. Greenworks spend a lot of time promoting the fact that this mower comes with not one, but two powerful 2Ah batteries with 40v of power that make running this machine a delight.

GreenWorks Tools will provide all the power you need without polluting the air or forcing you to keep hauling your petrol can to the nearest station (especially in the middle of mowing). You can collect your clippings in the 55-litre grass collection bag or make use of the side and rear discharge chutes. The benefits include additional power when mowing while utilising compact 24V batteries which can be used in any of the 24V family of tools, from grass trimmers, hedge trimmers, chainsaws and even power tools. The instructions were quite good but I found the instructions for charging the batteries a bit baffling. So, in contrast to older batteries, it makes sense to charge lithium-ion batteries briefly in between.

There is no cable to get in the way, and cordless tools are much quieter than petrol versions, but best of all there are no emissions in use. If you are familiar with Greenworks then you may already be aware of their power share batteries which can be used in several of their tools. Over the past 10 years, I've been testing and reviewing a wide range of lawnmowers, including battery cordless, electric, petrol, and robotic mowers. They then sit in a dual battery port, built into the mower, and will give you as much as 46 minutes run time on a single charge. Just bare in mind that the quoted 46 minutes run time is very much dependant on the condition of the lawn and is for 2 x 4.
