If your priorities in a lawnmower center around maneuverability and ease-of-use, and if you are looking to spend as little as you can for a very high-quality small electric lawn mower, this Greenworks 25012 18-inch 12 Amp may be the perfect lawn mower for you. 12 amps isn’t powerful enough to get through very dense grass, but it is plenty of power for maintaining the average small yard when regularly mowed. A steel 18 inch cutting deck adds weight but also increases the durability of this little mower.

Greenworks 25012 18-inch 12 Amp Review
This powerful little Greenworks 18-inch 12 Amp has enough strength to cut through even tough grass but it is small and easily maneuverable so that you won’t dread cutting the grass anymore. While 12 amps isn’t enough power to get through very overgrown lawns, this lawn mower manages to make the best of its 12 amps and is able to power through the average lawn during regular maintenance.
The 18 inch cutting deck is made of a durable steel so that it will last for the long term. This mower can mulch and discharge to the side so that you won’t get grass clippings all over your feet while you are mowing. It is not equipped with a bag, so only choose this mower if you want to always self mulch your clippings back into your lawn. The height can be adjusted in seven positions from 1-3/4-Inch to 3 3/4-Inch.
Front and rear wheels are both 7 in, which is big enough to make this lawn mower maneuverable over uneven terrain and around your landscaping. Having the same size wheels in front and back makes this lawn mower slightly more difficult to maneuver while keeping the blades flat against the grass than mowers with larger tires in the back.
