Greenworks 40V 16in Push Lawn Mower, 4.0 Ah Battery and Charger

The Greenworks 40V 16-Inch Push Lawn Mower offers a hassle-free, battery-powered solution for maintaining small to medium yards up to a half-acre. Designed for homeowners who want to ditch gas cans, pull cords, and oil changes, this push mower combines a compact 16-inch deck with straightforward controls. The push-button start means you can begin mowing immediately without struggling with pull cords or engine chokes.

At the heart of the mower is a 40V brushless motor, which delivers higher torque, quieter operation, and a longer motor lifespan compared to traditional brushed alternatives. Power comes from an included 4.0Ah battery that provides up to 30 minutes of continuous runtime on a full charge. The battery recharges completely in 120 minutes using the included charger, and it works interchangeably across more than 75 tools in the Greenworks 40V outdoor ecosystem, including blowers, trimmers, and chainsaws.

Handling lawn maintenance across changing seasons is straightforward thanks to the single-lever 5-position height adjustment. With a simple movement, you can change the cutting deck height from 1-1/4 inches to 3-3/8 inches to match your turf type. The mower also features 2-in-1 capability, letting you switch between returning nutrients to your lawn through mulching or collecting grass clippings with the rear bagging system. Its lightweight design and 16-inch width allow easy navigation around trees, flower beds, and narrow yard pathways.

While this mower excels in tight spaces and small yards, its 30-minute runtime per charge means larger properties over a half-acre will require extra batteries or pauses during work. A complete recharge takes 120 minutes, so planning your mowing schedule around battery life is essential. Additionally, because it is a manual push mower, moving across thick grass or sloped terrain relies on your own physical effort rather than self-propelled drive wheels.

Verdict: The Greenworks 40V 16-Inch Push Lawn Mower is an ideal pick for homeowners with small to medium yards up to a half-acre who want a lightweight, low-maintenance lawn care setup. Its quiet brushless motor, simple height adjustment, and battery compatibility across 75+ tools make it a convenient entry into cordless yard care.
