WORX 17" Cordless Lawn Mower, 2 in 1 Ele vs LawnMaster 24VMWBL 24V Max 13-inch Cordl

Quick Verdict

The WORX 17" Cordless Lawn Mower is the better choice for most homeowners with medium-sized, relatively flat yards. Its broader cutting width, higher user rating, and quiet operation justify the higher price. The LawnMaster 24VMWBL is a budget-friendly option for small, simple lawns where maneuverability and low cost matter more than cutting speed or power.

Side-by-Side

Where WORX Wins

Cutting Efficiency – The 17-inch deck cuts a noticeably wider swath than the 13-inch LawnMaster. This means fewer passes across your lawn, reducing mowing time by roughly 30% on an average yard.

Quieter Operation – The WORX is specifically designed for quiet cutting, making it suitable for early morning or late evening mowing without disturbing neighbors. The LawnMaster is not marketed as a quiet model.

Build Quality & Reliability – With over 7,000 reviews and a slightly higher rating, the WORX demonstrates strong long-term user satisfaction. The higher price point typically correlates with better materials and a more durable chassis.

Versatility – The WORX is a 2-in-1 mower (mulch and rear bag), while the LawnMaster also includes side discharge. Both offer mulching and bagging, but WORX’s reputation for reliable bagging is stronger based on user feedback.

Where LawnMaster Wins

Price – At $169.99, the LawnMaster costs about half the WORX. For homeowners on a tight budget or with a very small lawn, this is a significant savings.

Maneuverability – The 13-inch cutting width and lighter overall weight make the LawnMaster easier to push, turn, and store in tight spaces. It fits easily in small sheds or garages.

Battery System – The 24V Max platform is common for LawnMaster tools, so if you already own other LawnMaster 24V products, you can share batteries. The WORX battery system is not specified in the title, so compatibility may be less clear.

Adequate for Tiny Lawns – For yards under 1,000 square feet, the narrower cut width is less of a drawback. The lower price makes it a practical choice for small patches of grass.
