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!

My son put it together so I can't say how that was. I have a large back garden lawn. It is also full of weeds and is not very level in places and a bit damp cos it has rained constantly for weeks and some of the lawn is under dripping trees. It was my first cut this year ( yeah am lazy lol) and was very long but this mower powered through it better than my electric one. It is still fully charged even tho I was mowing for ages. It's great not getting tangled up in cables. My only beef with it is it doesn't edge lawn that is against anything, such as a stone path that is highter than it or a wall. It does if the lawn edge is next to a flower bed. I found it fairly easy to manovere but it is harder in a tight space as it is very long. I think it s a good middle budget lawnmower and the batteries don't take long to charge. Right off to do the front now.

First time out and I'm pleased. My lawn is 100m² Around 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!

Purchased this in jan 21 as an Amazon good as new- left until now to ensure I could give a trustworthy review. It arrived in original packages and don’t think it had ever been used. It was fairly straightforward to assemble. We have a fairly large garden but it is mainly made up of small patches of grass and grass paths this lawnmower has been perfect - it’s light and manouvreable - initially I was a bit disappointed on the length of cut but now I’m used to it I actually think it’s better not so harsh on the grass. I cut the lawn this morning (November) it was soaking but it cut it without problem- usually takes me about 1/2 an hour and the batteries are fine for this with the first cut of the year I do have to charge half way through which is the only downside as they do take a while to charge. They are stored inside and I usually charge them when I’ve finished mowing ready for next time. Highly recommend this product.

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.

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.

UPDATE 3/8/19: Having now used the mower for a couple of months and becoming increasingly frustrated, I have revised rating from 3 stars to 1. Battery life is appalling even on dry grass. With fresh, fully charged batteries the gauge can show 5 bars when you switch on but then as soon as you push the mower and put a load on the motor the bars drop to 2 or 3 until load is taken off. Insufficient power to throw clippings into bag so only really fills 25/30% before having to empty. On a full set of batteries and dry grass I manage maybe just over 10 mins before Having to change batteries. Normally a fan of Worx tools but I have to say this is the worst Worx tool I have purchased, and for the price I cannot recommend. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Having many Worx tools I have plenty of batteries so the fact this needs 2 is no problem as they are all interchangable. It's more convenient than a corded mower, quieter, lighter and doesn't need regular servicing like a motorised one (both of which I have as I have several lawns over a large area). The mower folds down and stores away easily, minor downsides are that because of the small collection bag it needs frequent emptying and the blade width means several passes are needed compared to machines with larger blades (but walking is good exercise). The mower is ideal for regular/often cutting of dry grass but doesn't really have power to cope with long/wet grass without clogging. With long grass the best action is to set the blade high and make several passes taking just a little off each time. Bought this machine to replace an old Worx 40v single battery mower where after 4 years the battery life was becoming depleted and the cost of a new battery was not worth the money compared to getting a new model, that being said the new mower does not last as long as my old 40v mower as after doing 2 of my lawns (about 150 sq mtrs), dry grass and previously done 3 days ago I was down to 1 light on new mower from full charge whereas old one would be 2 or 3. It might just be that batteries are new and so need to go through several charge/discharge cycles to get full capacity, time will tell.

Really like this lawnmower. I bought it primarily as I was fed up getting the multiple extension cables out and having to cut the grass around them. I got it with the grass strimmer to do the edges. Front garden and verge = 30m2 ish, perimeter is approx 40m Back garden = 60m2 ish, perimeter is approx 32m I have the combination of 2x 20v 2Ah batteries and can JUST about get the whole area cut AND the edges trimmed. The conditions for getting the batteries to last, for both cutting and trimming, is that it is only 1-2 weeks of growth and completely dry. If the grass is nice and dry then the batteries will last no problem. A section of the back garden was a little damp this weekend and the lawnmower went into boost mode a few times to power through it. When I went to do the front, it only just lasted long enough. The lawnmower is definitely suited more for smaller gardens with relatively well kept grass. I have a lot of moss in the front garden and the lawmower cannot cut through it on the lowest setting. I have cut it to the second lowest then the lowest and the lawnmower still struggles to get through the moss. It is simple to use and operate. The basket collects enough so I only have to empty it 3 times in total. As I use the same batteries on the same charge for the strimmer too, it is fair to say this lawnmower could manage lawns up to 100m2, provided they are mostly dry and not too long. Even with the batteries struggling to manage both lawns with the strimming, the advantage of being able to just roll out the lawnmower and start cutting, without the hassle of setting up all the cables, makes it well worth it.

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.
