WORXNitro 80V Cordless Lawn Mower, Electric Mower with Brushless Motor, 3-in-1 Self-Propelled Lawn Mower WG761-4 Batteries & Basecamp Charger Included

Bought this as my first electric mower. The main appeal was I wanted one that I could use the batteries in my power tools as well. Since I hadn't started my tool collection yet it made the choices easier as I wasn't locked into one brand yet. This replaced an old gas-powered Honda self-propelled mower that had its engine seized from lack of oil. (Not my finest moment) Compared to the Honda it does a decent job. There are definitely moments where the Honda would have been able to chew through some tall wet grass that this one doesn't do as well at, but if you don't let your grass go crazy this can handle it with no problem. The suction could also be a little better as there are times I notice I missed a blade or two when I let the grass get too long that I don't remember being an issue with the Honda. Overall it works well enough and most of my gripes are just me being lazy and not mowing often enough. Being able to use these batteries in other power tools has been awesome. While the 5AH battery looks massive on my drill I pretty much never have to worry about them running out of power and since my mower came with 4 batteries I can save some money and buy the tool-only versions. Very happy with my purchase and no major complaints so far. The added bag and side mulcher are nice options included in the package and I've used them a couple of times when my grass has gotten too long. Oh, and I should mention this mower has an LED light on the front. I don't use it often, but it has come in handy when you're racing the sun to finish mowing.

I purchased this battery powered WORX 80V lawnmower because I am a small, elderly woman. I was tired of the upkeep of my gas powered mower. gas, oil, spark plugs, air filter….Plus, it was hard to get it to start. I mowed my front yard last night to try it out. It takes some coordination to get used to it. There are two levers you need to hold down; One for the blades and the other one for the self propelled mode. You have to release the self propelled lever when you turn or back up. But if you release both levers, the mower will stop. I LOVE the self propelled mode. I just guide it. I wish that I had bought this last year before I paid all Summer to have someone mow for me. Most lawn care companies charge 50.00 for each mow. That adds up to $1,000. a season. This mower will save me $ in the long run, and also gives me some great exercise.

This lawn cut my grass nice, because of how short amount of time I got with the battery I am returning this item. The battery for this lawn mower died within 25 minutes.

Before I get fully into this, I get a little long winded with this review, so if you want to save yourself some time, I'm trying to condense my thoughts and recommendation at the end, so just skip towards that end if you want to save yourself some time and reading.Before this model, I was using a Worx mower that use the now discontinued 56v batteries. It was pretty effective, taking two 56v batteries at a time , but it would take me at least 4 batteries to mow my whole lawn, and that was when I was able to mow the lawn at least once a week or so. If I was unable to do it in time, usually because it was raining on my days off or I'd had to go to work on a day off, sometimes it would take me upwards of a month to be able to properly get things mowed. At that point, it would take me at least 6 batteries worth, if not 8. I'm sure now that I didn't make things easier on myself by not using the bag to catch the grass, and after a while I wasn't as adamant on cleaning and maintaining it, but still.Last year, I came across this model on sale. I was in the market for a lawn tractor, or at least a self-propelled gas model, because I was tired of having to devote half my day to just upkeeping my yard. Looking at this, I wasn't sure if it would be much better, using four 20v batteries, which adds up to 32 less volts overall. On top of that, it has the option for self-propulsion, and headlights, both of which I was SURE would kill the batteries before I would be close to finished. However, since it was on sale, and I was actually told by a family member they'd split the bill as a birthday gift, I figured, what's the worst that would happen?The day comes that it's delivered. First, I was pretty shocked, it was heavier than I had expected, because the old model was fairly light. This was made with a heavier body, heavier wheels, and the batteries and basecamp dock that powers everything was fairly sturdy. Assembly, as far as I can remember, was a non-issue. If I remember right it comes fully functional out of the box, and all you have to do is remove the packaging, the protection, attach the dock and insert the batteries, then off you go. The self-propulsion is surprisingly strong, full speed requiring me to almost jog behind the mower to keep pace. The mower self-regulates the speed of the blade, so you aren't going full throttle on light grass, and not choking out the motor by trying to whack down thick grass with too slow of a speed. The headlights are headlights; I really don't know what else to say about them. They work good, if you're in a shady spot around sunset, but I don't have much use for them.The REAL surprise came from my first outing with the mower, and that surprise kept happening every time afterwards. I start cutting the grass the same way I had every single time before, took the same path, kept about the same pace; One patch mowed, another after that, then the bulk of everything in the main section of my yard. As things went on, I'd noticed the mower wasn't running out of steam, and I was finishing up well before I would with the old model. By the time I was done, I checked the batteries and found that every battery had only used a single light worth of power, probably 20%. The next time I cut the grass, I tried using the bag, and the results were just as good.Now, for more background, most of the grass on my land is on a slope, where it's flat is bumpy, I live more in the woods on the outskirts of town, and I just let it be its natural state, I don't fertilize, I don't spread weed killers, I don't do anything to my yard outside of watering it when it's really dry out and cutting it when it needs it. Because of how strong this mower is, I can actually go a longer time between cuts without concern, which seems to actually be giving me a healthier yard without lifting a finger.If you have a larger yard, this probably won't be the mower for you, unless you have spare batteries or don't mind taking time to recharge batteries between passes. If you have a smaller, flatter yard, this is honestly TOO MUCH mower for you. You'd be doing yourself a favor by springing for a cheaper model that doesn't use four batteries, or perhaps just going with a mower that uses an extension cord. If you're like me and have a more maintenance-heavy yard, where you might need a small lawn tractor but don't need something super wide, this will do you pretty well. The only advice I have to give is if you use the self-propulsion, turn that off before you have to back up at all, and do it earlier than you'd think, because when you do go to back up, you'll hear a clunking or grinding sound otherwise. Other than that, this is a great alternative to gas engine mowers, if you don't want to bother with constantly refilling gas and oil, checking spark plugs and filters, and just want to go out and cut your grass at a moments notice.

The media could not be loaded.  After purchasing the WORX weed whip and blower several years ago, I haven't had any issues with either. My gas mower gave out after eight years, so it was time for a new one. I decided on the WORX 21" self-propelled mower and could not be happier. I've attached some pictures and a video to show how well the Intellicut feature works. My lawn was fairly long, but the mower cut through it with ease. After 55 minutes of almost nonstop cutting, the battery pack still had 1 bar or light of power left. I made the right purchase and plan on sticking with the WORX brand of products.Update 6/18/24After using the WORX lawnmower for some time, I think it would be great to have an option to automatically increase the RPMs when needed instead of waiting for the IntelliCut feature to kick in. There are a few occasions where I believe it would be really useful. This suggestion doesn't change my overall opinion of the product, but it's something I wanted to mention.
