We needed a new mower. We chose this smaller mower after looking at all of the larger, more powerful, and heavier mowers, including some that cut the grass for you. The size is essential for cutting between garden beds, and it fits easily around and under plants. We cut most of the lawns with a zero-turn mower, so this is for the smaller areas.

We have hills, so it has to be lightweight. Tall grass and thick weeds require power to cut them down. This Greenworks mower seems to have the right size and power and the price point was within budget. Let's get it out of the box and see how it performs.
