How they stack up

Greenworks 60V 21-Inch Push Mower

The best value of the group, undercutting the EGO LM2114 on price while sharing a 21-inch 4-in-1 design, though the EGO has more torque. Cheaper and lighter than the Greenworks 80V 21-inch push, and a push-only counterpart to the self-propelled Greenworks MO48L4422. Far more capable than the corded Sun Joe MJ403E but pricier.

Greenworks 80V 21-Inch Push Mower

The highest-voltage push mower here, with more headroom than the Greenworks 60V 21-inch push and runtime that rivals it, at a similar low price. It is push-only like the EGO LM2114 (which has the premium Gator blade and ecosystem edge), and for self-propulsion the Greenworks MO48L4422 is the pick. Far more capable than the corded Sun Joe MJ403E.
