Greenworks 60v 54" MaximusZ. Need it to mow ~3.5 acres of the property. So far, love this thing! It's nearly silent without the blades on, and with them on you can have a conversation next to it. Pulls a trailer well and very comfortable. Easy to raise and lower the deck.
One charge gets through around ~3 acres on Blade Speed: 2/4, Speed: 2/3
Honestly use it as a mini yard tractor more often than as a mower. The dump bed is a nice addition in place of the Ego green thorax, or the gas engine.

How does it cut?
Electric is the future even if the old heads don’t want to hear it. Sthil will soon stop producing gas engines to focus on battery Other small engine manufacturers will follow suit. I was skeptical I am a saw guy, I love my MS 461 so much I bought 2, but I got the largest battery saw they make a MSA 300 and it’s actually fantastic. My 461 still has a place but for 99% of my tasks I used the 300.
I’d love an electric tractor but the price is a factor for sure. Zero turns seems like a great application, my issue with them has always been traction, and I’m sure that’s not gotten any better with battery. Seems like your land is flat enough to not be an issue so should be perfect.
Would you do an end-of-season review? Perhaps 12 months pls N ty. Congrats btw.
Been using my Ryobi 54 inch, it works great for the 8 acres and been able to pull full loads of compost about 400 lbs. love not having to drag gallons of gas
Every electric tool that I have used turns to garbage after just a couple of years, IF they even make it that long.
I need an update in a year! I haven’t had good luck with greenworks but hopefully this one is a winner.
Smart move. Much easier to produce electricity than diesel.
