Ideal Home tested the Greenworks POWERALL 24V cordless mower on a freshly laid lawn and found it light and easy to manoeuvre, with strong cutting performance in the test. The review says its 2Ah battery is rated for up to 20 minutes, making it better suited to lawns up to 140 m²; the tester’s larger garden took about 25 minutes to mow.
Ideal Home has tested the Greenworks POWERALL 24V cordless lawn mower, reporting that its lightweight, compact design made it easy to manoeuvre, while its battery capacity points to a better fit for small lawns of up to 140 m². The tester used it on freshly laid turf in a garden larger than the model’s recommended area, where a full charge did not cover the roughly 25-minute mowing job.
The mower runs on one 2Ah battery, with a stated runtime of up to 20 minutes. Ideal Home’s reviewer, Jennifer Oksien, said she used it to cut two-week-old turf three times over several weeks. She described its performance as impressive in the test, while noting that the battery began to run low before the larger garden was fully mown.
The machine has a 33cm cutting deck and five cutting-height settings, from 25mm to 70mm, adjusted with a single lever. Grass can be collected in the supplied 30-litre bag or mulched using the included plug. The review says the deck cut effectively along the edge beside a patio, although a narrow strip remained by a fence.
According to the report, the mower weighs 19kg and has a folding handle for storage. The reviewer found it easy to steer around the garden, but said its battery stalled as it neared depletion. A brief charge of about 10 minutes did not prevent that problem; the report recommends a full charge before mowing. It gives the full charging time as about three hours.
Battery Range Sets the Lawn Limit
For shoppers comparing cordless mowers, the test highlights the trade-off between easy handling and limited runtime. A compact deck and relatively low weight may be useful where storage space is tight or the garden has obstacles, but a stated 20-minute runtime leaves little margin if a lawn takes longer to cut.
The reviewer’s garden took about 25 minutes to mow despite a full battery, exceeding the stated runtime. That experience does not establish how the mower will perform on every lawn: grass length, conditions and mowing pace can affect the time and battery demand. It does, however, reinforce the manufacturer’s stated 140 m² recommended lawn size as a practical boundary for buyers to check against their own garden.

How the Review Tested It
Ideal Home’s report describes testing the mower over several weeks on a freshly laid lawn that had been kept green during dry weather. The reviewer said the test garden was larger than the recommended area, so the battery and collection capacity were put under more demand than the product’s intended small-lawn use.
The mower arrives partly assembled, according to the report. The lower and upper handles need to be fixed in place, and the grass collector attached if clippings are to be collected. The package described by the reviewer included the battery, charger, collection bag and mulch plug. The report says UK models should come with a UK plug, though the reviewer’s supplied charger had a US fitting and she checked that the UK version should differ.
“I found it easy to manoeuvre”

Performance Beyond This Test
The source report does not provide independent battery measurements or test results across different lawn sizes, grass conditions or seasons. Its roughly 25-minute mowing time came from one garden, and should not be treated as a standard result for every user. The material also does not give a price, warranty details, or a comparison against other specific mower models.
The report describes the mower as weighing 19kg in its test section, but gives a different figure—9.5kg—in its specification list. It does not explain the discrepancy, so the mower’s weight cannot be stated consistently from the supplied material. The reviewer also mentions an incorrectly fitted US-style charger in her test package, while saying UK models should include a UK plug; the cause of that mismatch is not established.
Check the Fit Before Buying
The next step for prospective buyers is to compare their lawn area and typical mowing time with the mower’s 140 m² recommendation and stated up-to-20-minute battery runtime. Buyers should also confirm the charger plug supplied for their market and check product specifications with the retailer, particularly given the conflicting weight figures in the source report.
The supplied review records a hands-on test, not a later product update or announced change. No further testing or manufacturer response is included in the source material, so additional performance findings are not confirmed.
Key Questions
What lawn size is the Greenworks POWERALL 24V designed for?
The source report says it is designed for lawns up to 140 m². Ideal Home tested it on a larger garden and found the job took about 25 minutes.
How long does the battery last?
The mower is supplied with a 2Ah battery and has a stated runtime of up to 20 minutes. The reviewer said the battery began to stall as it neared depletion.
How long does it take to charge?
Ideal Home’s report gives a full charging time of about three hours and says a short 10-minute charge did not stop the mower from stalling near depletion.
Can the mower collect or mulch grass?
Yes. It can collect clippings in the included 30-litre bag or mulch them using the supplied plug, according to the review.
How much does the mower weigh?
The source material is inconsistent: its test section says 19kg, while its specification list says 9.5kg. The report does not explain the difference, so buyers should verify the weight with the retailer or manufacturer.
