Key features & specs

How it compares

When compared to traditional gas-powered push mowers, the Worx mower eliminates the need for spark plug maintenance, oil changes, and fuel storage. Within the electric sector, it stands out against corded electric mowers by providing a tangle-free experience, and it competes effectively with entry-level robotic mowers by offering more power for overgrown or uneven turf that automated sensors might struggle to navigate.

How to use it

1. Ensure both 20V Power Share batteries are fully charged and securely clicked into the battery compartment.
2. Adjust the cutting height using the single-lever control based on your grass type and the 2026 season.
3. Insert the safety key and depress the start button while pulling the bail handle toward the upper grip.
4. Mow in clean, overlapping rows to ensure total coverage across the lawn surface.
5. After use, remove the batteries and use the carry handle to store the mower vertically to save garage space.
