Greenworks 80V 21" Brushless (Push) Cordless Electric Lawn Mower + (500 CFM) Axial Leaf Blower + 13" String Trimmer (75+ Compatible Tools), (2) 2.0Ah Batteries and 30 Minute Rapid Charger Review

Overview

The Greenworks 80V 21" Brushless Cordless Lawn Mower Combo is a full-yard care starter kit designed for homeowners with medium-sized lawns who want to ditch gas, oil, and pull cords entirely. It pairs a capable push mower with a leaf blower and string trimmer, all powered by two 2.0Ah batteries—enough to maintain a typical 1/4 to 1/3 acre property. This isn’t a pro-grade setup, but for the suburban homeowner seeking a clean, quiet, and low-maintenance solution, it’s a compelling all-in-one package.

Who Should Buy This

• Suburban homeowners with 1/4 to 1/3 acre lawns – The 80V platform delivers enough runtime for a full mow, plus trimming and blowing, on a single charge cycle. If your lot is smaller, you’ll have battery to spare; larger than 1/3 acre, you’ll want extra batteries.

• Homeowners who hate gas cans and pull cords – This combo eliminates all the mess: no mixing oil, no stale fuel, no carburetor cleaning. If the thought of winterizing a gas engine gives you a headache, this is your kit.

• Buyers who want one battery platform for multiple tools – Greenworks 80V supports over 75 compatible tools. If you plan to add a chainsaw, hedge trimmer, or snow blower later, you’re already invested in the same batteries and charger.

• Noise-sensitive users or early-morning mowers – At roughly 75–80 dB, this mower is noticeably quieter than gas. You can mow at 7 AM without waking the neighbors or worrying about your ears.

Key Features Breakdown

• 80V Lithium-Ion System with Two 2.0Ah Batteries – Higher voltage means more torque and longer runtime per amp-hour than 40V or 56V systems. Two batteries let you swap mid-mow, but 2.0Ah packs are on the smaller side—expect about 25–30 minutes of mowing per battery under normal conditions. Combined runtime covers most 1/4-acre lawns, but not much more.

• 21" Brushless Motor & Steel Deck – The brushless motor is more efficient and lasts longer than brushed alternatives. The 21" steel deck is a sweet spot: wide enough to cover ground quickly, narrow enough to fit through standard gates. Steel is heavier than plastic but far more durable—it won’t crack if you hit a rock.

• Single Lever 7-Position Height Adjustment – One lever controls all four wheels simultaneously, so you can raise or lower the cut from 1.5" to 4" in seconds. This is a premium convenience feature over individual wheel adjustments.

• 500 CFM Axial Leaf Blower – Axial fans (like this) prioritize volume over speed—good for moving leaves on pavement or open grass, less effective for wet debris or packed mulch beds. 500 CFM is solid for a battery blower, but not class-leading.

• 13" String Trimmer with Auto-Feed Head – The 13" cutting swath is standard for residential use. Auto-feed means you don’t have to bump the head to advance line, but some users report it can overfeed. The trimmer shares the same battery platform, which is convenient.

• 30-Minute Rapid Charger – Charges a depleted 2.0Ah battery in about 30 minutes. That’s fast enough to recharge one battery while you use the other, or to top off between tasks.

Pros

1. Truly gas-free operation – No fuel, no oil, no emissions, no pull cords. Press a button and go. The mower starts instantly every time.

2. Excellent single-lever height adjustment – Changing cut height is effortless, and the 7 positions give real flexibility for seasonal lawn care (low in spring, higher in summer heat).

3. Quiet enough for early morning or late evening – You can mow when it’s convenient for you, not just when it’s polite to run a gas engine.

4. Versatile 80V platform – If you already own or plan to buy other Greenworks 80V tools, these batteries and charger work across the lineup. That’s real long-term value.

5. Good build quality for the price – The steel deck feels solid, the handle is comfortable, and the wheels roll smoothly. It doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy.

6. All-in-one convenience – Buying mower, blower, trimmer, two batteries, and charger as a kit saves you the hassle of piecing together a system. It’s ready to go out of the box.

Cons

1. Limited runtime per battery – The included 2.0Ah batteries are the smallest in the 80V lineup. If your lawn is on the larger side of 1/4 acre, you’ll likely need to buy a larger battery (4.0Ah or 5.0Ah) for a single-pass mow.

2. Axial blower lacks torque for wet or heavy debris – It moves dry leaves well on hard surfaces, but don’t expect it to clear a wet, matted lawn or blow out a flower bed. For that, you’d need a high-velocity (radial) blower.

3. Trimmer auto-feed can be inconsistent – Some users report the line advances too much or jams. It’s not a dealbreaker, but you may occasionally need to manually pull line.

4. No self-propelled option – This is a push mower. On flat, small lawns it’s fine, but if you have a slope or a larger yard, you’ll want the self-propelled version (which costs more).

Bottom Line

The Greenworks 80V 21" Combo Kit is a smart, all-electric solution for the homeowner with a 1/4 to 1/3 acre lawn who wants to go gas-free without breaking the bank. The mower itself is solid—brushless motor, steel deck, easy height adjustment, and instant start—while the blower and trimmer handle the edges and cleanup. The biggest limitation is the small 2.0Ah batteries: they’ll cover a standard suburban lawn, but just barely. If your yard is at the upper end of that range, budget for a larger battery. For everyone else, this kit offers genuine convenience, low maintenance, and a quiet, clean mowing experience. I recommend it for the buyer who values ease of use over raw power, and who wants a single platform for their yard tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do the batteries actually last when mowing?
Under normal conditions with thick grass, expect about 25–30 minutes per 2.0Ah battery. That’s enough to mow a typical 1/4-acre lawn if you’re efficient. If the grass is tall or damp, runtime drops. The rapid charger takes 30 minutes to recharge, so you can swap and keep going.
