The Greenworks 60V 21-inch push mower is the value champion, named Pro Tool Reviews' top Greenworks push pick with a 9.4/10 score. It pairs a 21-inch deck and 4-in-1 cutting system with single-point height adjustment and easy folding, typically for around $399-499 as a complete kit. The 45-minute runtime and tendency to slow in thick overgrowth are the trade-offs for the low price and clean design.
Full review
Real-World Performance
The Greenworks 60V 21-inch push mower is Pro Tool Reviews' pick for the best Greenworks push mower, scoring 9.4/10 in their hands-on review. Their tester found it very easy to maneuver with power sufficient for typical yard growth, though they noted it can struggle in thicker overgrowth. The brushless motor spins the blade at up to 3,200 RPM, plenty for regular weekly cuts on lawns up to a half acre.
Bob Vila's testing echoed that it handles regular maintenance cuts well as a straightforward, easy-to-use machine. The 60V system sits below the EGO's 6 ft-lb torque, so it is not the mower for neglected or very tall grass, but for homeowners who mow on schedule it delivers a clean cut and quiet operation, 3x quieter than gas per Greenworks, at a price that anchors the value end of this list.
Build Quality and Design
Greenworks built the 60V push mower for simplicity. It uses a 21-inch stamped-steel deck with a single-point height adjustment, seven positions from 1.3 to 4 in, and folds easily for storage. The 4-in-1 system, mulch, bag, side discharge, and leaf pickup, is more versatile than the EGO's 3-in-1 setup, and a runtime display and LED lights are nice touches.
The kit includes a single 60V 5.0Ah battery, charger, and grass bag, and dual battery ports let you add a second pack for longer sessions. IPX4 weather resistance and a 4-year tool-and-battery warranty back the build. Reviewers consider it well-made for the price, if not as overbuilt as premium gas-replacement mowers.
Battery Life and Power
The included single 5.0Ah battery delivers up to 45 minutes of runtime, enough for a half-acre lot on one charge under typical conditions. The dual battery ports are the key flexibility: adding a second pack roughly doubles the session length, and the auto-switch behavior keeps you mowing without manual swaps.
Power is sufficient rather than abundant. Pro Tool Reviews was candid that the 60V motor can struggle in thicker overgrowth, so this is a mower for staying on top of weekly mowing rather than rescuing an overgrown lawn. For that intended use, the power and runtime are well-matched to the price.
Where It Falls Short
The two honest limitations are runtime and overgrowth performance. At 45 minutes on the included battery it trails the dual-battery Greenworks 80V, and Pro Tool Reviews explicitly flagged that it can bog down in thick or tall grass where the higher-torque EGO LM2114 would not.
It is also push-only in this kit, so hilly lots are harder work than with the self-propelled Greenworks MO48L4422. For homeowners with flat, regularly-maintained lawns these are minor issues; for neglected lots or slopes, they steer buyers toward more powerful or self-propelled options.
How It Compares to Alternatives
The 60V push is the value play against the pricier EGO LM2114, which it undercuts while sharing a similar 21-inch deck and (in fact, broader) 4-in-1 functionality, though the EGO out-torques it. Against the Greenworks 80V 21-inch push it is cheaper and lighter but has less runtime and power.
It is the push-only counterpart to the self-propelled Greenworks MO48L4422, so hill owners should spend up for that. And while the corded Sun Joe MJ403E costs far less, the 60V's cordless freedom and larger deck make it the better mower for anything beyond a small yard. For value-focused cordless buyers, it leads.
Who It's Best For
The Greenworks 60V 21-inch push mower suits budget-minded homeowners with flat lots up to half an acre who mow on a regular schedule and want a clean, easy-to-use cordless mower at the lowest cordless price in this list. The 4-in-1 system and folding storage make it practical for typical suburban yards.
It is the wrong pick for neglected or thick lawns, where the EGO LM2114's torque wins, for hilly properties that need the self-propelled Greenworks MO48L4422, and for buyers who want maximum runtime, where the dual-battery Greenworks 80V pulls ahead. As the value cordless push mower, though, it is hard to beat.

How it compares
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.
