Greenworks 48V (24V x 2) 20" Brushless Cordless Lawn Mower + 12" String Trimmer + 320 CFM Leaf Blower Combo Kit with (2) 4.0Ah Batteries & Dual Port Fast Charger Review

Overview

The Greenworks 48V (24V x 2) 20" Brushless Cordless Lawn Mower Combo Kit is a complete yard-care solution for homeowners with small to medium-sized lots. Designed to replace the hassle of gas engines and multiple separate tool purchases, this kit bundles a 20-inch mower, a 12-inch string trimmer, and a 320 CFM leaf blower with two 4.0Ah batteries and a dual-port fast charger. It’s best for anyone with a yard up to about 1/3 acre who wants a single-brand, battery-powered system that covers mowing, edging, and cleanup.

Who Should Buy This

• Homeowners with 1/4 to 1/3 acre lawns – The 20-inch deck and twin 4.0Ah batteries provide enough runtime to handle typical suburban lots in one charge, with the trimmer and blower ready for finishing work.
• Gas-free converts – If you’re tired of mixing fuel, dealing with pull cords, and storing smelly gas cans, this kit lets you ditch the gas station trips entirely. Just plug in the batteries.
• First-time cordless buyers – This is a strong starter kit for someone new to battery-powered outdoor tools. You get three essential machines and two batteries, so you’re not hunting for spares.
• Homeowners who value quiet operation – At roughly 75 decibels, this mower is noticeably quieter than a gas mower, making it neighbor-friendly for early-morning or evening mowing.

Key Features Breakdown

• 48V (24V x 2) Power System – The mower runs on two 24V batteries wired in series to deliver 48V, giving it torque comparable to a 140cc gas engine. It handles thick St. Augustine or Bermuda grass without bogging down, though it’s not a match for heavy-duty commercial mowing.
• 20-Inch Brushless Motor – The brushless design means no brushes to wear out, longer motor life, and more efficient power use. The 20-inch deck is a sweet spot for maneuverability in tight yards while still covering enough ground to finish quickly.
• Combo Kit Includes 12" String Trimmer & 320 CFM Blower – The trimmer uses a bump-feed head and is lightweight at about 7 pounds. The blower moves 320 CFM at 110 MPH—enough for dry leaves on patios and driveways, but not for wet, heavy debris.
• Two 4.0Ah Batteries & Dual Port Fast Charger – You get two batteries, so one can charge while you mow with the other. The charger refills a depleted 4.0Ah battery in about 60 minutes. For a 1/4-acre lawn, you’ll likely use one battery for the mower and one for the trimmer/blower.
• 7-Position Height Adjustment – Adjust cutting height from 1.5 to 4 inches with a single lever. This is handy for switching between a low cut in spring and a taller cut during summer heat.
• Single-Lever Foldable Handle – The handle collapses without tools for upright storage. It’s a space-saver if you’re stashing the mower in a garage corner or shed.

Pros

• True three-tool versatility – This isn’t just a mower with a bonus trimmer. All three tools are well-matched in power and runtime, so you can mow, edge, and blow a typical yard in one session without swapping batteries.
• Brushless motors on all tools – Every piece uses a brushless motor, which means longer life and better efficiency than brushed alternatives. You’ll notice the mower doesn’t lose power as the battery drains.
• Lightweight and easy to push – At about 40 pounds, the mower is easy to maneuver around flower beds and trees. It’s a real plus if you have a sloped yard or need to lift it over curbs.
• Quiet enough for early mornings – At 75 dB, it’s about 15 decibels quieter than a gas mower. You can mow at 7 a.m. without waking the neighbors.
• Dual-port charger saves time – Charging both batteries simultaneously cuts downtime in half compared to single-port chargers. You can be back to work in under an hour.
• No gas, no oil, no tune-ups – This is the biggest long-term win. No carburetor cleaning, no spark plug changes, no winterizing. Just keep the blades sharp and the batteries charged.

Cons

• Not for lawns over 1/3 acre – The runtime is adequate for small yards, but if you have half an acre or more, you’ll likely need a third battery or a larger model. The mower’s 20-inch deck also feels slow on bigger spaces.
• Plastic deck durability concerns – The deck is impact-resistant plastic, not steel. It’s fine for normal use, but hitting a big rock or stump repeatedly could crack it. Gas mowers at this price often have steel decks.
• Blower is underpowered for heavy debris – 320 CFM is fine for dry grass clippings and light leaves, but wet leaves or thick mulch piles will frustrate you. If you have many mature trees, look for a blower with 500+ CFM.
• Batteries are proprietary – You’re locked into Greenworks’ 24V/48V system. If you lose or damage a battery, replacements cost around $100 each. Third-party options are limited and often unreliable.

Bottom Line

The Greenworks 48V combo kit is a smart buy for homeowners with small to medium yards who want to go gas-free without sacrificing performance. The mower handles typical residential grass well, the trimmer and blower are capable sidekicks, and the twin-battery system keeps you working. It’s not ideal for large properties or heavy-duty tasks, but for a 1/4-acre lot, it’s a reliable, low-maintenance package that saves you from owning three separate tools. I recommend it for anyone ready to leave gas cans behind, provided you’re realistic about yard size and the blower’s limits.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do the batteries last when mowing?
On a full charge, one 4.0Ah battery gives about 30–40 minutes of mowing time on a typical lawn with thick grass. For a 1/4-acre yard, you’ll likely use both batteries: one for the mower and one for the trimmer and blower. If your grass is tall or damp, expect less runtime.

Can I use the batteries from this kit with other Greenworks tools?
Yes, but only with Greenworks 24V and 48V tools. The two 24V batteries work in the mower (paired together) and individually in the trimmer and blower. They also fit Greenworks’
