The 14 best cordless lawn mowers in this roundup range from compact 14-inch push models to a 21-inch self-propelled mower. My best overall pick is the EGO POWER+ 21-inch mower, which pairs a wider cutting deck with a more capable format for larger lawns. The Greenworks 60V self-propelled mower is a standout for buyers who want drive assistance, while smaller EWORK, Litheli, WORX, and Greenworks models suit tighter yards and easier storage. The main tradeoffs are cutting width, battery capacity and platform, and whether a push mower is enough for your terrain. Read on for the full breakdown and guidance on matching a mower to your lawn.

Key Takeaways
- The lineup splits sharply by yard size: most picks have 14-inch decks for compact spaces, while the EGO and Greenworks 60V models offer 21-inch cutting widths for covering more ground per pass.
- Self-propelled drive is the clearest convenience upgrade: the Greenworks 60V model adds assistance that can matter on slopes or larger lawns, but the smaller push mowers are simpler and lighter in concept.
- Battery setup affects more than runtime: options range from a single battery to two-battery kits, and buyers should check compatibility with tools they already own before choosing a battery platform.
- Several products are close variants rather than wholly different mower designs: EWORK repeats the same listed 40V 14-inch configuration, while the Litheli and WORX entries differ by battery or voltage details that need checking at purchase.
- Deck width and storage needs often point in opposite directions: compact 14-inch mowers are easier to maneuver and store, while wider 21-inch decks can reduce passes on open lawns.

More Details on Our Top Picks
EWORK 40V 14-Inch Cordless Lawn Mower with 2×4.0Ah Batteries & Fast Charger
I’d choose this EWORK for a small lawn where easy handling and battery flexibility matter more than covering ground quickly. Its 14-inch deck and 21-pound weight should make it simpler to steer around garden beds than the wider EGO POWER+ 21-inch mower, while the two included 4.0Ah batteries let you swap packs instead of waiting for a recharge mid-job. Six height positions offer more adjustment steps than the Litheli 14-inch mower’s five, though the EWORK’s top setting is only 2-7/16 inches, which may not suit buyers who want a longer cut. The tradeoff is its narrow deck and 9-gallon bag: expect more passes and more frequent emptying on larger lawns. I’d treat it as a practical small-yard option, not a substitute for a wider mower.
Pros:- Two 4.0Ah batteries provide a spare pack for continued mowing.
- At 21 pounds, it is easier to maneuver than the larger EGO POWER+ 21-inch mower.
- Six height positions allow finer adjustment than the five-position Litheli 14-inch mower.
- Fast charger is included with the battery set.
Cons:- The 14-inch cutting width means more passes than a 17- or 21-inch mower.
- The 9-gallon grass bag can require frequent emptying.
- The maximum cutting height of 2-7/16 inches limits longer-cut preferences.
Best for: Owners of compact lawns with tight turns who want a lightweight mower and a second battery ready to swap in.
Not ideal for: People mowing broad lawns or keeping grass longer, since the 14-inch deck covers less ground per pass and its maximum height is 2-7/16 inches.
- Battery voltage:40V
- Battery capacity:Two 4.0Ah batteries
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Weight:21 pounds
- Height adjustment:6 positions, 7/8 to 2-7/16 inches
- Grass bag capacity:9 gallons
- Motor speed:3,800 RPM
- Included charging equipment:Fast charger
Our verdict“Choose the EWORK if your lawn is compact and you value low weight and a spare battery more than a wide cutting path.”
Litheli 14 Inch Cordless Lawn Mower with 5.0Ah Battery and 5-Position Height Adjustment
The Litheli is the more straightforward pick for a small or mid-sized yard when you want one battery, a brushless motor, and minimal upkeep. Its stated runtime of up to 30 minutes gives buyers a useful planning figure, unlike the EWORK 40V 14-inch mower, which lists two batteries but no runtime. The EWORK has a second pack and one more height position; this Litheli instead offers a 5.0Ah battery that can double as a power bank, adding a use beyond mowing. Its five cutting heights run from 1 to 2.5 inches, a similar short-cut range to the EWORK rather than the broader range of the EGO POWER+ 21-inch. The compromise is limited coverage per charge, and the product data does not give an exact weight. I’d favor it for easy, routine cuts—not overgrown grass or large properties.
Pros:- Brushless motor is described as quiet and maintenance-free.
- Up to 30 minutes of stated runtime helps with mowing-session planning.
- The 5.0Ah battery can also serve as a power bank.
- Five cutting heights cover a useful range for routine small-yard mowing.
Cons:- A single battery and up-to-30-minute runtime may not cover larger lawns in one session.
- The 14-inch deck requires more passes than the 17-inch cordless mower in this roundup.
- Exact weight and noise level are not provided.
Best for: Small-yard owners who want a quiet brushless mower, a stated runtime, and a battery that can also power other devices.
Not ideal for: Buyers with larger lawns, dense or tall grass, or a need for a second included battery for swapping during a mowing session.
- Battery capacity:5.0Ah
- Cutting deck:14 inches
- Cutting height:5 positions, 1 to 2.5 inches
- Grass bag capacity:9 gallons
- Motor type:Brushless
- Runtime:Up to 30 minutes
- Weight:Not specified
- Battery feature:Can double as a power bank
Our verdict“Pick the Litheli for quiet, uncomplicated mowing on a modest lawn if one battery and up to 30 minutes of runtime are enough.”
EGO POWER+ 21-Inch Cordless Electric Lawn Mower with Battery and Charger
I’d put the EGO POWER+ first among these five for buyers who need a wide cutting path and longer stated runtime, rather than the nimble footprint of a compact mower. Its 21-inch blade is seven inches wider than the EWORK and Litheli 14-inch models, reducing the number of passes across open lawn; the stated runtime of up to 55 minutes also exceeds the Litheli’s 30-minute figure. Seven height settings spanning 1.25 to 4 inches give more room to tailor the cut than the shorter ranges listed for those compact picks. LED headlights add flexibility for early or late mowing. The costs of that broader capability are physical heft, an 80-minute charge time, and reliance on EGO’s 56V battery system. I’d skip it if storage and easy lifting matter more than coverage.
Pros:- The 21-inch blade covers more ground per pass than the 14-inch mowers in this batch.
- Up to 55 minutes of stated runtime supports longer mowing sessions than the Litheli’s up-to-30-minute figure.
- Seven height settings span 1.25 to 4 inches.
- LED headlights can help when mowing in lower-light conditions.
Cons:- The 80-minute charging time can leave a substantial wait between sessions.
- The mower is described as potentially heavy for some users.
- Battery compatibility is limited to EGO 56V batteries.
Best for: Homeowners with a medium-to-large residential lawn who want a wide deck, extended stated runtime, and a high maximum cutting height.
Not ideal for: Owners of very small, crowded yards or anyone who needs a particularly light mower; its 21-inch deck and weight may be less convenient than the compact EWORK or Litheli.
- Model:LM2114
- Blade size:21 inches
- Battery voltage:56V
- Battery capacity:6.0Ah
- Runtime:Up to 55 minutes
- Charging time:80 minutes
- Cutting height:1.25 to 4 inches; 7 positions
- Warranty:5 years for tool; 3 years for battery
Our verdict“Choose the EGO POWER+ if wider coverage and a longer stated runtime outweigh weight, charging time, and brand-specific battery compatibility.”
WORX Cordless Lawn Mower, 40V 14″ 2-in-1 Grass Mower for 1/8 Acre, WG735
The WORX WG735 earns its place for buyers who want to choose between bagging and mulching rather than commit to one clipping routine. That flexibility is its clearest distinction from the EWORK 40V 14-inch mower, whose supplied details emphasize a grass bag but do not list mulching. WORX also pairs its 14-inch deck with a cut-to-edge design, which can reduce the need for extra trimming along borders. Six height settings, from 0.8 to 3 inches, include a higher maximum than the EWORK’s 2-7/16 inches. Its stated coverage is up to 1/8 acre per charge, so I’d keep it to compact lawns; the 21-inch EGO POWER+ is the more appropriate choice when a wider path and longer stated runtime matter. The WORX’s lightweight build aids maneuvering but may be less reassuring in tough conditions.
Pros:- Two-in-one bagging and mulching offers a choice in how clippings are handled.
- Cut-to-edge design can help reduce extra trimming along borders.
- Six height positions span 0.8 to 3 inches.
- Powershare compatibility includes 20V, 40V, and 80V batteries.
Cons:- Coverage is limited to up to 1/8 acre per charge.
- The 14-inch deck covers less ground per pass than the 17-inch mower and EGO’s 21-inch model.
- Its lightweight build may be less durable in tough conditions.
Best for: Owners of compact lawns who alternate between collecting clippings and mulching, and want easier edge coverage.
Not ideal for: People with lawns larger than 1/8 acre or rough mowing conditions that call for a heavier-duty build and wider deck.
- Power source:40V battery
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Battery system:Powershare; compatible with 20V, 40V, and 80V batteries
- Cutting height:6 positions, 0.8 to 3 inches
- Clipping options:Bagging or mulching
- Motor type:Brushless
- Stated coverage:Up to 1/8 acre per charge
Our verdict“Choose the WORX WG735 for a small lawn if mulching, bagging, and edge-focused cutting matter more than maximum coverage.”
Cordless 17-Inch Walk Behind Lawn Mower for Garden
This 17-inch mower sits between the compact 14-inch options and the full-width EGO POWER+ 21-inch, making it a sensible fit for buyers who want more coverage without stepping up to a 21-inch deck. Its stated runtime of up to 40 minutes and coverage of up to 5,380 square feet give a clearer yard-size guide than the EWORK, which lists two batteries but no runtime or coverage. Two 20V 4.0Ah batteries power a 1200W brushless motor, and the 50L grass bag holds more than the 9-gallon bags listed for the EWORK and Litheli. Six height settings cover 1 to 3 inches. The tradeoff is a 30-pound listed weight and a narrower cutting-height range than the EGO’s 1.25-to-4-inch span. I’d choose it for moderate lawns, not large or especially demanding ones.
Pros:- The 17-inch deck covers more ground per pass than the EWORK and Litheli 14-inch mowers.
- Two 20V 4.0Ah batteries support up to 40 minutes of stated runtime.
- The 50L grass bag has greater stated capacity than the 9-gallon bags on the compact EWORK and Litheli.
- Six height settings span 1 to 3 inches.
Cons:- Up to 40 minutes of runtime may not be enough for larger lawns.
- At 30 pounds, it is heavier than the 21-pound EWORK.
- No foldable or compact-storage feature is specified.
Best for: Owners of small-to-medium lawns who want a wider deck and larger grass bag than compact 14-inch mowers provide.
Not ideal for: People with large lawns needing extended coverage, or buyers who want a specified compact-storage feature or a cutting height above 3 inches.
- Cutting deck:17 inches
- Height settings:6 positions, 1 to 3 inches
- Motor power:1200W
- Battery:Two 20V 4.0Ah batteries
- Runtime:Up to 40 minutes
- Coverage area:Up to 5,380 square feet
- Weight:30 pounds
- Grass bag capacity:50L
Our verdict“Pick this 17-inch mower if a modestly wider cut and larger bag suit your small-to-medium lawn better than a compact 14-inch model.”
EWORK 40V 14-Inch Cordless Lawn Mower with 2×4.0Ah Batteries & Fast Charger
At 21 pounds, this EWORK is the easiest choice here for buyers who prioritize steering and lifting over covering ground quickly. Its 14-inch deck suits small lawns and tight spaces, while six cutting-height settings let you adapt the cut to changing grass conditions. The package includes two 4.0Ah batteries and a fast charger, so you have a spare battery rather than relying on a single pack. Compared with the Greenworks 60V 21-inch self-propelled mower, it is much narrower and lacks powered drive, but it should feel less cumbersome to maneuver. That compactness comes with a clear limit: larger lawns need more passes, and battery capacity may not cover extensive mowing. Its foldable handle also calls for careful storage.
Pros:- 21-pound weight makes maneuvering and lifting easier
- Two 4.0Ah batteries and a fast charger are included
- Six cutting-height settings suit varied lawn conditions
- 9-gallon grass bag reduces how often clippings need emptying
Cons:- 14-inch cutting width means more passes across larger lawns
- Battery capacity may not cover very large yards in one session
- Foldable handle needs careful handling during storage
Best for: People with small, obstacle-filled lawns who want a light mower that is easier to steer and lift.
Not ideal for: Owners of large lawns or anyone seeking a wide deck and self-propelled assistance to reduce mowing time and effort.
- Voltage:40V
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Battery:2 x 20V 4.0Ah
- Weight:21 lbs
- Cutting height:0.86–2.44 inches; 6 settings
- Grass bag capacity:9 gallons
- Charger:Fast charger included
Our verdict“Choose this EWORK for a small lawn where light handling matters more than the wide coverage of the Greenworks 60V.”
Greenworks 60V 21-inch Self-Propelled Lawn Mower with Dual 4.0Ah Batteries
This Greenworks earns its place as the large-lawn pick by pairing a 21-inch deck with adjustable self-propelled drive and two 4.0Ah batteries. The wider cut can reduce the number of passes, and the stated runtime of 60+ minutes is aimed at yards up to 3/4 acre. Its brushless motor and four cutting options—mulching, bagging, side discharge, and leaf pickup—make it more adaptable than compact push mowers such as the Greenworks 24V 14-inch. LED headlights can also help when mowing in lower light. The tradeoff is size and weight: this is a more substantial machine, and its self-propulsion matters most when you use it rather than pushing it manually. Battery recharge time may also affect longer mowing schedules.
Pros:- 21-inch deck covers more ground per pass than 14-inch models
- Self-propelled drive helps reduce pushing effort
- Four cutting options include mulching, bagging, side discharge, and leaf pickup
- Dual 4.0Ah batteries and stated runtime of 60+ minutes support larger mowing areas
Cons:- Heavier build can be harder to maneuver or push manually
- Battery recharge time may interrupt extended mowing plans
- Larger deck takes more storage space than compact push mowers
Best for: Homeowners with lawns approaching 3/4 acre who want a wide cut, self-propelled assistance, and multiple clipping options.
Not ideal for: People with small yards, limited storage, or a preference for a lightweight mower they can easily lift and maneuver by hand.
- Battery:2 x 4.0Ah 60V lithium-ion
- Cutting width:21 inches
- Motor:Brushless
- Runtime:60+ minutes
- Maximum area:Up to 3/4 acre
- Cutting options:4-in-1: mulching, bagging, side discharge, and leaf pickup
- Height settings:7 adjustable levels
- Water resistance:IPX4-rated
- Warranty:4 years
Our verdict“Pick this Greenworks for a larger lawn where self-propulsion and a 21-inch deck matter more than compact storage.”
EWORK 40V 14-Inch Cordless Lawn Mower with 2×4.0Ah Batteries & Fast Charger
This EWORK version is a practical match for small residential lawns where compact storage and easy maneuvering take priority. It weighs 21 pounds, has a 14-inch cutting width, and folds down for storage; two 4.0Ah batteries and a fast charger are included. Those paired batteries give it an advantage over the Litheli 14 Inch mower with 5.0Ah battery if you value having a second pack available, though the Litheli lists a runtime of up to 30 minutes. This mower uses manual push operation, so there is no powered drive to help on slopes. Its plastic construction and narrow deck also make it a less suitable choice for rough, expansive lawns. Buyers should check the supplied height range against their preferred cut: this listing gives a maximum of 2.6 inches and a minimum of 0.98 inches.
Pros:- 21-pound weight makes it easier to steer and store
- Two 4.0Ah batteries and a fast charger are included
- Collapsible handle helps reduce storage footprint
- Adjustable cutting height supports different lawn conditions
Cons:- 14-inch deck requires extra passes on wider lawns
- Plastic construction may be less suited to rough use
- Manual operation provides no assistance on slopes
Best for: Apartment or townhouse residents with a small lawn, limited shed space, and a need for a lightweight mower with a spare battery.
Not ideal for: People mowing large or steep lawns, or buyers who want a self-propelled mower or a more substantial construction.
- Model:EK-DLM34A4-2MR
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Weight:21 lbs
- Battery:2 x 4.0Ah
- Cutting height:0.98–2.6 inches
- Operation mode:Manual push
- Wheel size:8 inches
- Material:Plastic
- Charger:Included; fast charger
Our verdict“Choose this EWORK if a small lawn and tight storage space make a light, foldable mower with two batteries a better fit than the runtime-focused Litheli.”
Litheli 14 Inch Cordless Lawn Mower with 5.0Ah Battery and Brushless Motor
The Litheli is a compact option for buyers who want a brushless motor and a stated runtime of up to 30 minutes in a 14-inch mower. Five cutting-height positions let you adjust the cut, while its foldable design helps when storage space is limited. Unlike the EWORK 40V mower with two 4.0Ah batteries, this model comes with one 5.0Ah battery, so there is no second pack ready to swap in; its stated runtime helps set expectations for small-to-mid-sized lawns. The battery can also serve as a portable device charger, adding a use beyond mowing. Its plastic construction is a tradeoff for a lightweight, compact format, and the limited runtime makes it a poor match for large areas or long sessions without a recharge.
Pros:- Brushless motor is designed for quiet, maintenance-free operation
- 5.0Ah battery has a stated runtime of up to 30 minutes
- Five cutting-height settings offer adjustment for different grass conditions
- Folding design helps with compact storage
Cons:- Up to 30 minutes of runtime limits coverage for larger lawns
- Only one battery is included
- Plastic construction may be less durable under demanding use
Best for: Owners of small-to-mid-sized lawns who want a compact mower with a brushless motor and a battery that can also charge devices.
Not ideal for: People with large lawns or buyers who need a spare battery included to extend mowing time without stopping.
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Motor:Brushless
- Battery capacity:5.0Ah
- Runtime:Up to 30 minutes
- Height settings:5
- Minimum cutting height:1 inch
- Material:Plastic
- Operation mode:Manual
Our verdict“Choose the Litheli for a small-to-mid-sized lawn if brushless operation and a device-charging battery matter more than having the EWORK’s second battery.”
Greenworks 24V 14-inch Push Lawn Mower with 5.0Ah Battery and Fast Charger
This Greenworks makes the most sense for buyers already invested in its 24V tool platform: the mower is compatible with more than 200 Greenworks 24V tools, so its battery can serve a broader kit. The package includes a 5.0Ah USB-C battery with an LED indicator and a 65W Type-C fast charger, alongside a brushless motor and a 14-inch deck. Its stated lawn coverage of up to 1/4 acre positions it above very small-yard choices, but below the larger-area focus of the Greenworks 60V 21-inch self-propelled mower. This is a push mower, not a self-propelled alternative, and its narrow deck means more passes on broad lawns. Battery-platform compatibility is useful only if the rest of your tools use the same system.
Pros:- Compatible with more than 200 Greenworks 24V tools
- 5.0Ah USB-C battery includes an LED charge indicator
- 65W Type-C fast charger is included
- Brushless motor and foldable design suit quieter operation and compact storage
Cons:- 14-inch cutting width takes more passes across larger lawns
- Stated coverage is limited to up to 1/4 acre
- Battery and charger tie the mower to the Greenworks 24V platform
Best for: Greenworks 24V tool owners with a lawn of up to 1/4 acre who want a mower battery that fits their existing ecosystem.
Not ideal for: Owners of larger lawns or shoppers without Greenworks 24V tools who would benefit more from a wider deck or a different battery platform.
- Motor:Brushless
- Battery:5.0Ah USB-C
- Charger:65W Type-C fast charger
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Battery compatibility:Greenworks 24V tools
- Stated yard size:Up to 1/4 acre
- Warranty:3 years
Our verdict“Choose this mower if you already own Greenworks 24V tools and your lawn fits its stated 1/4-acre coverage.”
Litheli 14” Electric Cordless Lawn Mower with 8.0Ah Battery and 5 Heights
The 8.0Ah battery gives this 14-inch Litheli a useful advantage over compact options with smaller batteries, including the Worx WG733.1’s 5.0Ah pack. Its stated runtime is up to 40 minutes, though thick or tall grass can shorten a session, and the maker limits its coverage to about 1/8 acre per charge. Five height settings from 1 to 2.5 inches suit owners who prefer a close cut, but provide less high-cut flexibility than the WORX WG779, which reaches 3.5 inches. At 15 kg, it is maneuverable for a mower with a 9-gallon catcher, and the quiet brushless motor avoids gas-style upkeep. The tradeoff is a relatively narrow deck and a lower maximum cutting height, so this is a better match for smaller, maintained lawns than overgrown grass or broad yards.
Pros:- 8.0Ah battery supports up to 40 minutes of stated runtime
- 15 kg weight makes it easier to maneuver than heavier walk-behind models
- Quiet brushless motor requires less routine maintenance than a gas mower
- 9-gallon grass catcher reduces how often clippings need to be emptied
Cons:- Coverage is limited to about 1/8 acre per charge
- Maximum cutting height of 2.5 inches is lower than the WORX WG779’s 3.5-inch setting
- Battery runtime can drop in thick grass or demanding conditions
Best for: Owners of small, regularly maintained lawns who want a compact mower, a larger battery, and a grass catcher for routine clipping collection
Not ideal for: People mowing more than about 1/8 acre per charge, tackling tall or overgrown grass, or needing a high maximum cutting setting
- Battery capacity:8.0Ah
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Cutting height range:1 to 2.5 inches
- Height positions:5
- Grass catcher capacity:9 gallons
- Weight:15 kg
- Stated runtime:Up to 40 minutes
- Stated lawn coverage:Up to 1/8 acre per charge
Our verdict“Choose the Litheli if you want a light 14-inch mower with a comparatively large battery for a small, regularly cut lawn.”
Worx Cordless Lawn Mower, 20V 14″ 2-in-1 Grass Mower WG733.1
The WG733.1 is the compact pick for owners who want to choose between bagging and mulching and need a mower that can cut close to borders. Its cut-to-edge design targets the strips a wider mower may leave near obstacles, while six height positions offer finer adjustment than the Litheli 14-inch model’s five. At 21.7 pounds, it is easy to steer around a small garden, but its 14-inch deck means more passes than a 21-inch mower such as the EGO POWER+ for the same lawn. The 20V, 5.0Ah battery is suited to smaller yards; the product description gives a coverage limit of 3,200 square feet, and runtime depends on grass conditions. That makes it less compelling for longer sessions than the Litheli with its 8.0Ah battery, but a stronger fit when maneuverability and edge work matter most.
Pros:- Cut-to-edge design helps trim closer along borders and obstacles
- Bagging and mulching provide two ways to manage clippings
- Six cutting-height positions allow more adjustment than five-position compact alternatives
- 21.7-pound weight is manageable for small, obstacle-filled gardens
Cons:- 14-inch deck requires more passes than wider mowers such as the EGO POWER+
- Coverage is limited to small or medium yards up to 3,200 square feet
- Battery life varies with grass thickness and mowing conditions
Best for: Small-garden owners who mow around borders, trees, and obstacles and want the choice of collecting clippings or mulching

WORX 40V Cordless 14″ 2-in-1 Lawn Mower for 1/8 Acre (WG779)
The WG779 pairs a 40V system—powered by two 20V, 4.0Ah batteries—with Intellicut, which adjusts cutting speed to the load. That can help preserve battery during lighter cutting and supply more speed when grass thickens, a useful distinction from the Greenworks 40V 14-inch mower, whose product details emphasize stated runtime rather than automatic speed adjustment. Its 29.13-pound body remains portable, and the folding handle helps with storage, while the 14-inch deck keeps it aimed at compact yards of up to 1/8 acre. You can mulch or bag, but the 0.85-bushel bag fills sooner than a larger catcher, so frequent stops are part of the bargain. Its six settings reach 3.5 inches, offering more room for a taller cut than the Litheli 8.0Ah mower. Choose it for control and compact storage, not a large lawn or long uninterrupted mowing.
Pros:- Intellicut adjusts cutting speed to mowing conditions
- Two 20V, 4.0Ah batteries power the 40V system
- 29.13-pound weight and collapsible handle support easier handling and storage
- Six height settings reach 3.5 inches, higher than the Litheli 8.0Ah mower
Cons:- Designed for lawns up to 1/8 acre, limiting its usefulness on larger properties
- 0.85-bushel bag requires frequent emptying
- Battery runtime may not cover extended mowing sessions
Best for: Owners of small lawns who want automatic cutting-speed adjustment, compact storage, and both mulching and bagging
Not ideal for: People with lawns larger than 1/8 acre or anyone who wants a large collection bag and fewer emptying stops
- Voltage:40V
- Battery configuration:2 x 20V 4.0Ah PowerShare batteries
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Cutting height range:1.5 to 3.5 inches
- Height positions:6
- Weight:29.13 pounds
- Bag capacity:0.85 bushel
- Noise level:87.8 dB
- Stated lawn coverage:Up to 1/8 acre
Our verdict“Choose the WG779 for a small yard where automatic speed adjustment and easy storage outweigh the small bag and limited coverage.”
Greenworks 40V 14-Inch Cordless Push Lawn Mower with 4.0Ah Battery and Charger
This Greenworks package includes a 4.0Ah battery and charger, so buyers can start with the core equipment rather than sourcing them separately. Its 40V battery is rated for up to 45 minutes, giving it a stronger stated runtime than the WORX WG779’s supplied battery details, although actual coverage depends on grass and mowing conditions. The 14-inch deck and 33-pound weight suit small to medium lawns, while rear bagging and mulching let you decide whether to collect clippings or return them to the lawn. Compared with the WG779, it is heavier and does not list automatic cutting-speed adjustment; compared with the Litheli 8.0Ah mower, it offers a higher maximum cut of 3.38 inches. The plastic-and-metal construction keeps the design manageable but may be a durability concern over time, and the handle height is not adjustable.
Pros:- Includes a 4.0Ah battery and charger
- Up to 45 minutes of stated runtime
- Rear bagging and mulching offer flexible clipping management
- Cutting height adjusts from 1.25 to 3.38 inches
Cons:- 33-pound weight is heavier than the WORX WG779
- Handle height is not adjustable
- Plastic-and-metal construction may be less durable over time
Best for: First-time cordless mower buyers with a small to medium lawn who want the battery and charger included with a bagging-and-mulching mower
Not ideal for: Buyers who need an adjustable handle, a wider deck for larger lawns, or a mower with a stated brushless motor and automatic load sensing
- Model:MO40B410
- Battery voltage:40V
- Battery capacity:4.0Ah
- Stated runtime:Up to 45 minutes
- Cutting width:14 inches
- Cutting height range:1.25 to 3.38 inches
- Weight:33 pounds
- Clipping options:Rear bagging and mulching
- Warranty:3-year limited
Our verdict“Choose this Greenworks mower if you want a complete 40V starter package for a small to medium lawn and do not need an adjustable handle.”
How We Picked
I compared the 14 listed options by the factors that most affect everyday ownership: cutting width, battery configuration, drive type, and intended lawn scale. I also looked at practical differences such as whether the mower is a compact push design or a wider machine, whether the kit includes a battery and charger, and whether the listed features suggest a useful fit for small, open, or more demanding yards. Since the product list contains repeated EWORK configurations and several similar 14-inch models, I treated those as close alternatives rather than assigning them artificial advantages.
The ranking favors versatility and clear capability first, then narrows to models with a distinct use case, such as self-propelled mowing, a compact footprint, or a stated larger battery. A wider deck or higher-voltage system can suit more mowing, but it may be unnecessary for a small yard and can mean a larger machine to store. Product listings do not provide consistent runtime, charge-time, or cutting-performance data, so I avoid claiming precise coverage or superiority where the supplied specifications do not support it. Check the exact kit contents and battery compatibility before buying, especially for the repeated or similarly named models.
Factors to Consider When Choosing 14 Best Cordless Lawn Mowers
Choosing a cordless mower is less about finding the biggest battery or widest deck and more about matching the machine to your lawn, storage space, and existing tools. These factors can help you sort compact push mowers from larger or more assisted options without paying for capability you will rarely use.
Match Deck Width to Lawn Shape, Not Just Lawn Area
A wide deck cuts a broader strip with each pass, which can help on open, uninterrupted grass. In a small yard with narrow gates, curved borders, or closely spaced beds, a compact deck may be easier to steer and turn. Measure the tightest passage between the mower’s wheels, not only the gate opening, before choosing a larger model. Buyers often focus on acreage and overlook obstacles that add time to every turn. If the lawn is open, prioritize cutting width; if it is segmented, maneuverability may matter more. The 14-inch models in this lineup favor access and storage, while the 21-inch options make more sense when there is room to use their wider cut.
Treat Battery Claims as a Whole-System Decision
Battery capacity alone does not tell you how much lawn a mower can cut, because grass height, density, terrain, and mowing pace all affect energy use. A two-battery kit may provide more flexibility, but check whether the mower uses both batteries together or keeps one as a spare; the supplied listing details do not establish that for every model. If you already own cordless tools, a compatible battery platform can make a mower kit more useful, but compatibility should be verified by exact battery family and voltage. Avoid choosing solely by the largest amp-hour figure, since runtime comparisons require consistent test conditions. Also confirm whether the charger is included and whether replacement batteries are readily available through the brand’s current lineup.
Decide Whether Self-Propelled Drive Solves a Real Problem
Self-propelled drive can reduce pushing effort on slopes, longer runs, or larger lawns, but it adds complexity compared with a basic push mower. On a flat, compact yard, a lighter-feeling push format may be easier to turn around beds and store in a shed. Buyers sometimes pay for drive assistance even though their main challenge is a narrow layout rather than hills or distance. Consider the ground underfoot, the number of inclines, and how often you mow before choosing. In this group, the Greenworks 60V model is the distinct assisted option; most 14-inch picks are push mowers. Choose assistance for terrain and workload, not as a default upgrade.
Check Storage and Handling Before Choosing a Larger Mower
A mower has to fit through gates, around parked equipment, and into its storage spot, so deck width is only part of its footprint. Look for the listed handle-folding or storage details in the exact product information rather than assuming every cordless model folds the same way. A compact mower can be easier to lift or reposition, while a wider mower may be less convenient in a crowded shed. If you need to carry the mower up steps, its complete weight with battery matters more than the bare tool weight. Ask whether you can store the battery separately and keep it in the conditions specified by its manufacturer. These small checks can prevent a capable mower from becoming awkward to use.
Compare Like-for-Like Kits and Model Names
This roundup includes repeated and closely named entries, including three listings for the same EWORK 40V 14-inch mower and multiple Litheli and WORX variants. Before ordering, compare the exact model number, battery capacity, motor description, charger, and included accessories rather than relying on a shortened product name. A listed battery upgrade can change the kit’s appeal, but it does not automatically mean the mower itself is different. Retail listings can also use similar names for products with different voltage platforms, so check the manufacturer’s product page when details conflict. This is especially useful when comparing WORX WG733.1 with WG779 or Litheli versions with different battery descriptions. Like-for-like comparison makes it easier to spot the true difference instead of paying attention to a naming variation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a 14-inch mower enough for a typical suburban lawn?
It can be enough when the lawn is compact, relatively open, and easy to mow regularly. A 14-inch deck takes more passes than a 21-inch model, so it may feel slow on a large, uninterrupted lawn. Its smaller footprint can be an advantage around garden beds, narrow gates, and tight storage areas. If your yard has both open stretches and many obstacles, compare the time saved by a wider cut against the effort of maneuvering a larger mower. For the most suitable pick here, focus on yard shape and access as much as total area.
Should I choose a two-battery mower kit over one with a larger single battery?
Not automatically: the answer depends on how the mower uses its batteries and whether you value a spare or a longer mowing session. The EWORK listing includes two 4.0Ah batteries, while several other products list one battery with a different capacity, but those figures alone do not establish equal runtime. Check whether both batteries power the mower at once, whether one is reserved for swapping, and whether the charger can charge them efficiently for your routine. If you own compatible tools, a single battery platform may be more useful than an extra battery in a separate system. Confirm the precise kit contents before deciding.
Is the Greenworks 60V self-propelled mower worth choosing for a small lawn?
It may be more mower than a small, flat lawn needs, especially if you value easy maneuvering and compact storage above drive assistance. Its self-propelled format is more compelling when you have slopes, longer mowing runs, or a wider area where pushing becomes tiring. A smaller 14-inch push model can be simpler for tight spaces and short sessions. Compare the mower’s overall size and handling needs with the terrain rather than treating self-propelled drive as an automatic advantage. If you rarely need assistance, a compact push option may fit your routine better.
How should I compare the similar WORX and Litheli models?
Start with the exact model number and included battery, since similar product names in this list represent different voltage or battery configurations. The WORX WG733.1 is listed as a 20V model, while the WG779 and WG735 listings are 40V; those should not be treated as interchangeable kits. Litheli entries also differ by their stated battery capacity and motor description. Check the maker’s specifications for battery compatibility, deck details, and charger inclusion, then compare those facts with your existing tools. If the listing leaves a key detail unclear, verify it before purchase rather than inferring performance from the name.
What should I prioritize if this is my first cordless mower?
For a first mower, prioritize a manageable deck size, straightforward push handling, and a clearly specified kit with battery and charger included. Think about where the mower will be stored and how far you must carry it, since those practical details affect whether you will use it comfortably. A compact Greenworks 24V or 40V model, or one of the 14-inch Litheli or WORX options, may be easier to assess for a small yard than a wider self-propelled mower. Still, compare the exact battery platform and replacement availability before committing. Choose a model that fits your lawn and storage space rather than buying extra capacity you may not need.
Conclusion
For the broadest range of lawns in this group, I would start with the EGO POWER+ 21-inch mower as best overall, while buyers who need help on slopes or longer runs should look at the Greenworks 60V self-propelled model. For a compact yard and a straightforward kit, the Greenworks 24V 14-inch mower is my value-minded choice, and its smaller format also makes it a sensible beginner pick for buyers who do not need a wide deck. Choose a Litheli 14-inch model with the 8.0Ah battery if the stated larger battery capacity is your priority, after confirming the exact package and compatibility. If you want a specific compact 40V setup, compare the WORX WG735 and WG779 by model number and included battery rather than assuming they are identical. The right choice comes down to whether you need coverage, assistance, compact handling, or a battery platform that works with tools you already own.
