Our verdict
The bottom line
The cheapest serious cordless with stripes. Performance is genuinely close to a Honda HRG. Battery resale is the weakness — if you want long-term value, EGO wins.
Pros & cons
Pros
- 60V platform genuinely bridges petrol gap
- Rear roller for stripes
- Self-propelled
- Decent runtime — 45–60 mins
Cons
- Greenworks 60V batteries less common than EGO/Stihl
- Heavier than EGO equivalents
- Build quality below Husqvarna/EGO standard

Buying second-hand
Used-market tip
£200–340 fair used. Roller bearings, drive cable, battery health — same checks as a petrol SP. Greenworks 60V batteries depreciate fast — never pay more than £100 for a used 6Ah pack.
Where to look: Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree are usually 20–30% cheaper than eBay UK for petrol mowers because most sellers want local pickup. eBay tends to win on cordless and electric (lighter, easier to ship). Always insist on a starting demonstration before paying.
