WORX WG779E.2 40V PowerShare Cordless Lawnmower 34cm 230m²

Superb mower. Purchased to replace a self propelled petrol lawnmower. I was very sceptical on the purchase wondering if it would be powerful enough for the +400sq/m of uneven course lawn. I purchased some additional 4Ah batteries for around £45 and found that 2 charge covered +430sq/m with no issue. It’s easier to push than a self propelled mower by a long way. Lightweight & powerful. Assembly is literally 5 mins with no tools needed. Easy to change height. Easy to fold up. Ok it’s not a brushless motor and will wear out, but for the price it’s well worth the money and will last a few years easy. Some reviews suggest the 30L bag is small. I don’t agree as the handle and build quality make it easy to empty. I have several Worx tools garden & diy. You cannot go wrong with them!

On first use this is great. It was easy to put together, nothing complicated and it doesn't have any extras on it that you don't need. It has a roller, which is great. One small niggle. Don't expect light, this is solidly built. Also, there is a plastic safety button which is pushed sideways to start it. However, this can come out of it's position when the lawnmower isn't upright. When it falls out of it's hole it's annoying because it can take a minute or two to put into the slot again the right way in, a bit like a puzzle. There's nothing you can do to make this not happen. It seems a 'safety' design flaw which hasn't really been thought through, or overthought. It cuts well, and fine. I used it on long, damp grass and it did one and a half small areas on full charge. So don't expect it to last too long on long damp grass. The batteries charge fast. I haven't used this on regular, shortish grass. But I expect it would do quite well on regular mowings of a larger area. I like Worx. I have a previous Worx mower which is electric and it is still going strong. I would recommend this mower.

This is a really lovely lawnmower and very easy to use. As it’s lightweight it makes it very easy to operate if you have weak hands like I do. It has a good size grass box, easy to assemble and the batteries have quite a long life to them. Well impressed and very happy with my purchase I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending this cordless lawnmower.

Ordered via Amazon Prime and the price I paid was also the cheapest I'd seen. It came well packed , assembly was very easy and intuitive and done within 15 mins w/o the need to refer to the instruction manual. The batteries (x 2 ) needed charging out of the box.My main reason for purchase was to replace a larger and heavier petrol self propelled mower - the WORX Cordless is much lighter and easier to maneuver and i don't have to faff about with petrol cans, pull start cables and throttle adjustments , but the WORX has a narrower cut and a smaller grass collection box vs. my petrol mower so it takes longer to cut the grass.Update after 6months of ownership:Overall still delighted with the purchase after using it most weeks over a 5 month summer/autumn period.. The batteries are fully charged in a couple of hours . We have 3 x small lawns surrounding our property that total approx 300 m2. If I cut with the mower set on TURBO and on the 2nd lowest grass cut setting, It didn't quite manage to cut all my 3 lawns on one charge (probably 50 m2 short) and I had to recharge the batteries to finish the job off . However to be fair, the manf claims to only cut up to 230 m2 on a full charge so it was up to spec.It performed very well as long as i did not let the grass grow too long. I tried to cut the lawn every week and it managed to cut my 3 lawns on a full charge with some charge to spare with the mower set to ECO mode on the 2nd lowest setting. Although it struggled if I left the grass to grow much beyond 1 week and i had to resort to using my more powerful petrol mower on one occasion when i left the grass to grow for over 2weeks when we went on holdiday It is easy and lightweight to fold down and store away into a small space in our shed which was not the case with my petrol mower. In summary , I'm delighted with the performance which has exceeded my expectations so it gets 5 Stars from me. It impreseed me enough to also buy the WORX cordless strimmer which I am also delighted with.5 years on and i am still using it and it still perform as it did when new. i still have it on the orginal batteries. the only thing i would criticise is that if i leave for 2 week between lawn cuts in the summer , then it struggles to cut our 3 lawns on a full charge.

First time out and I'm pleased.My lawn is 100m²Around half the lawn was over 6 inches long and wet. Mower has plenty of power (although you can stall it if you try) Having grown up a farm kid and used to petrol lawnmowers I was impressed.I did a first pass on the highest 70mm setting, which took the included 2.0Ah batteries down to 1 light.I have a 2nd set of batteries so swapped them out for a second pass at 40mm and still had 3 out of 5 lights when I was done. Collection basket does need emptied regularly.Over all it did better than my neighbours old wired mower and considering the long wet grass I'm impressed with performance and battery life.A spare set of batteries (or the larger capacity ones) definitely an advantage if you're likely to mow long wet grass regularly!

Product arrived 3 days late.Overall, the lawnmower performs well. However, the batteries need recharging quite often and charging time is around 4 hours. The shortest cutting length is too long and so leaves my lawn needing another cut within a couple of days.For the cost, though, the lawnmower is good value for money.

Before I bought, I did lots of research on this and many other mowers.If I'm honest, I can't recommend it because at heart, I'm disappointed.Despite it having a few height settings, the lowest one is disappointing because it only cuts for a few seconds then it grinds to a halt. The next higher setting is OK, but doesn't cut the grass as short as the lower setting would (if it worked). Pointless.CUTS TO EDGE? - NO IT DOES NOT!!I therefore bought another Worx cutter (along with a long handle thing, which Worx no longer makes [because it's inadequate?]) specifically to cut the grass edge. I'm disappointed. The new cutter is fine for trimming the hedge but doesn't cut through the grass edge either!So, I spoke to Worx and all they now tell me I need a strimmer!! That's another piece of equipment I have to buy! The descriptions of their tools claim to do things that they obviously do not do.Worx's attitude to customer service is poor. They aren't bothered about after sales service.The batteries last well. The mower is pretty quiet. The mower is lightweight. BUT if it doesn't cut to the edge then it doesn't do what Worx says it should do (and I'm now forced into buying a strimmer - even though I also already have a trimmer which is supposed to do grass edges - and it doesn't cut them either).TIP: AVOID WORX.

I have very much a mixed review on this lawn mower.Firstly I do love the ease of a battery operated lawn mower. It's much easier and more convenient than a wired mower or a hefty petrol mower. The lighter weight offers much greater portability than some larger units on the market. It has a nifty little handle which is helpful however I find the placement forces the load off balance when carrying which is manageable but cumbersome.The batteries charge in good time and have a reasonable run time. They will comfortably cut a moderate size garden with short to medium length lawn. If your lawn is on the larger side, be mindful you may not get it all cut in one battery cycle.The speed and accuracy of the cut is also good. I've found that it doesn't take constant back and forth to cut compared to some other leading brand mowers. It cuts relatively close to the edge but does not mitigate against the requirements of a strimmer.It comes with a large grass collection bucket on the rear that holds an impressive volume of grass, meaning the frequency of emptying isn't half as much as I expected which is a favourable plus.My biggest concern with the mower surrounds the potential quality. I have found that my mower is constantly " ramping up " when it's on normal operation. (Please see attached video). Even when the grass is a short length and the ground is even, the motor constantly sounds like it's starved of power and revving up.I'm not certain whether this is an intended design feature, however it certainly sounds as though the motor is struggling, which is far from ideal.Apart from the off centre handle and ramping up and down the motor, I find the until pleasing overall but because of the negatives; I would be unable to rate it higher.I would recommend with the recommendation of reporting any motor issues in good time and during the warrant period where applicable.

Much smaller than I would have expected but does the job. I live in a semi-detached house & the first cut I couldn't get all the way done with one charge of the two batteries because of how thick the grass was. The second time through I got the whole yard done on one charge.
