- Hi Guys, today I’m reviewing the GreenWorks 25022 12 Amp Corded 20-Inch Lawn Mower. LINK to GreenWorks Mower: amzn.to/1Xcl5X3

It’s a 12 amp 20 inch mower that is corded. The deck or body of the mower is durable steel. It’s a 3 in 1 mower meaning it can mulch, there’s side discharge and rear collection with the included grass catcher. The 20 inch wide cutting path is best for mid sized lawns. You can adjust the cutting height from 1.5 inches up to 3.75 inches. There are 7 positions and it is easy to adjust cutting height by moving the lever. Moving the lever sets all wheels to the same position. The front wheels are 7 inches and the rear 10 inches.
The mower weighs 56 pounds so if you can’t lift it out of the box, cut the sides of the box and roll it out. It comes as one large piece. There are no tools needed to assemble it which is awesome, you don’t even need a screwdriver. You can barely call it assembly as there is so little to do.
First align the upper and lower handle holes, insert the included cam locks and tighten them with the wing nuts. Secure the lower handle to the bracket by tightening the knob on each side. There’s a cam lock handle for easy fold down and storage.
There is a cord lock which actually prevents cord disconnect. Loop your cord through the cord retainer. I haven’t had the cord disconnect on me so far. The grass bag catcher hooks onto a rod under the chute cover. The discharge chute attaches to the side of the mower.
To start the mower, hold the power button and pull the bail switch up to the handlebar and hold. To stop the mower, release the bail switch.
Going up hill on my lawn is a little difficult but not bad. With this corded mower, I find it’s best to mow horizontally away from the cord. You shouldn’t mow up and down at angles higher than 15 degrees, go across the lawn. This also gives you the best chance of not running over the cord, you can throw it over your shoulder if you’d like. I’m using a 100 foot 14 gauge 3 wire cord that worked fine with this mower.
The grass catcher works well, nothing spills except when you forget to empty the catcher like I did. So, check the catcher once in awhile and make sure it’s not full. I dump the grass right into my compost pile.
To clean, wipe the mower down with a dry cloth and remove any buildup from the underside of the mower deck. It’s best to do this each time after mowing to prevent rust and corrosion. Don’t use water to clean.
So far, I am happy with how easily the mower cuts grass. The grass also looks even. It isn’t hard to maneuver even into tight spaces. The cord is the only annoying part of this mower. There is a cordless version but it costs a lot more. If you hate cords and want the convenience, spend more and get the cordless. If you’re on a budget, I would suggest this corded version. It works really well and for me, it was a good purchase. If you want to try out this mower, I’ll put links to it in the description below.

Thank you, just an opinion, even if you are NOT on a budget, stick with the AC cord. It is no big deal to get used to the cord AND you have full power, never worrying about the battery running low.
This was really helpful. My mower didn't come with (or I can't find it) a user guide, and the company website doesn't seem to have one either. Biggest problem was how to start, which your video solved in 2 seconds! The mower works really well. It's not too loud and runs smoothly. The narrow width gets it in between shrubs with minimal difficulty. Based on your information, I'm going to go ahead and get another 25 or 50 ft of 14 gauge cord. Thanks for posting this, it really made my day.
Glad it was helpful 😀
I'm not sold on the mower but I like your review style. Very "to the point" as it were. Well done.
Thanks, Michael :)
Great review and this mower rocks n rolls. It's quiet n lightweight for a 20 in
Thanks for sharing 😀
Love this new intro😝
Thanks for your video! Do you know about gauge of a fifty-foot cord? Thank you.
Did lots of dust, dirt, and grass fly out through the bag into your face? I am wondering if I got a defect because mine does this.
Was it cutting? the grass looked bad afterword
Good video!
Thanks, Jim 😀
I bought this mower second hand and didn’t realize there was an extra piece needed to use the side discharge. Can I just cut the grass without the bag and without the side discharge setup?
If you don't have the side discharge piece I belive it will just multch the grass. You don't need the bag to do this it's blocked off with the bag not on there just make sure to clean out the mower underneath when your done mowing.
I've had a lot of trouble getting my mower to mulch properly- the grass all clumps on the bottom of the mower and then drops on the yard in big unsightly clumps. I'm going to try to mow it high and then mow it again to try to get the mulching setting to work. Otherwise I'll have to bag it all :(
silliaek
The grass has to be Try to mulch. You can't do it in the morning when it's wet or has do on it.
how to set this into mulching?
Hi, The side and back openings have to be covered so the lawn mower will mulch since the grass has no place to exit. In the back, lift the chute cover and insert the mulch plug into the slot. Keep the side opening closed. Hope that helps :)
I wish we could’ve heard how it sounds
Its not hard to imagine someone running over the cord... dumb idea. Love your reviews
3rd mow and it already isnt working for me
Got this mower recently from Amazon this mower is worthless for cutting thick carpet like grass like Zoysia grass that I have on my yard. Also blades are extremely dull - need to be frequently sharpened. Again, it may work for very thin grass but in my case it was waste of money.
what part of the amazon do you live?
Once you develop a system with the cord you will hardly notice IT. Though corded is not good for huge lawns. I'd say, "get a smaller lawn!!'. Remember, you are giving up handling gasoline, oil, fumes, pollution (except at the power plant), noise, expensive repairs (one moving part in an electric motor), spark plug maintenance, fire risk. I find it great that it's so easy to stop and start cutting. Oh, yeah, ney sayers, if there is a power failure you are out of luck. Live with it.
corded will last you longer, cordless batteries die out completely eventually
You sound exactly like Dr. Pimple Popper Sandra Lee. Like if you agree.
