Yeah, the lack of self-propulsion and low Ah batteries are definite drawbacks for me, but the price is decent and having plenty of 80V power plus a solid 4-year warranty from a reputable brand makes it hard to dismiss this deal outright.
I'm hesitantly deciding to take the risk of waiting until Prime Day (July 8th to 11th), hoping to score a better bargain. If nothing better pops up, this deal might end up being the consolation prize. Then again, maybe a bird in the hand is worth more than a mower in a Prime bush… (I prefer Brazilian 😆)
I love it. Just hand sharpened my blade with a puck stone since my local hardware store closed and it now makes almost no noise. Tons of power... I've got the hedge trimmer, blower and I've used the trimmer... super impressed with you the 80v pro stuff;

1. Cutting grass and mulching it back into the lawn. With just two batteries you will run out, but with a third from previous purchases it works just fine. Why? Because at the end of the second battery, you have the first battery charging, put in the third, and since you have two chargers, you are charging batteries A and B, while you cut with C.
C is used up. A is recharged. You put that in, start C charging. By the time A is used up, B has now recharged, and you put B in, and start A charging. C continues charging. Just keep rotating. The BIGGEST issue is going to be heat. That's because fast discharge makes the batteries hotter. Lithium ion batteries do NOT like recharging when already hot, so you will either charge much slower at first, or you may even need to let it cool down.
That works fine in the 80's, but by the time you get in the 90's these batteries need to cool off before charging if you are cutting continuously.
2. Cutting grass and bagging. Plus carting around the grass, and taking the carts to the mulching area - I have just over 4 acres. Our old Kobalt, which is still going strong, took over 5 years of steady use before the batteries start holding enough less charge you can run out of battery with two batteries.
FYI the only Greenworks tool that has given me overheating trouble with this is the Blower, which is great as a blower. They EAT current, and you really don't pause. The batteries can get uncomfortably hot, even with just a 2.0 aH. I have four batteries, so it's not a problem I switch them out to cool halfway. The only tools that I have had warranty trouble with are the Kobalt hedge trimmer - made by Greenworks, but it's the five plus year old version, which I am pretty sure was stripping a tooth off a gear and catching so it wouldn't start moving, but you could hear the motor struggling. I've ended up with the newer Greenworks version, and haven't used it enough to tell if they fixed it. I can tell the blades move a fair bit faster and are lighter, so the innards have been changed.
The wheeled 80v tiller was USELESS. I have heavily amended clay soil, and the tiller chokes on it. Sadly I purchased it at the end of season sale, and didn't discover how useless it was until I started it up the next season. If I have nice black bottom land soil, it would probably be fine for cultivating between rows. My advice if you get the tiller, try it IMMEDIATELY in your garden. If it gets the weeds, keep it. If it has trouble as the soil dries out, return it.
Asking too much of them, you need at least 4Ah batteries for the mower.

I was wondering how this was so low since I just bought the one that Costco had on sale for $499 reduced from $599 but it's the self propelled one with higher capacity batteries

Edit: unless meaning like the above cycling example where you are constantly fast charging and they stay hot. Ok. That makes sense.
