What owners single out
Both buyers and critics flag setup friction—the wire installation requirement is a major barrier that divides satisfied long-term owners from those who abandon the product early.
In their words
“Was getting new sod so I laid the wire before the sod went down and didn't need the pegs. On my third season now and it works well especially with the app improvements over the years. It cuts 2-3 hours a day and I change the blades once every two months and my lawn always looks great.”
Shawn · verified purchase · greenworkstools.ca
“This mower did NOT cut my grass. It is an expensive remote control vehicle and takes alot of extra work to install wire so that it runs in a designated area. I would give is 0 Stars. Walmart would not refund as it was over $250.00. Greenworks would not refund as I nolonger have the box. Silly me thinking a reputable brand would run properly.”
