The Worx 40V 14-inch mower runs on two 20V 4.0Ah PowerShare batteries and is designed for properties up to 1/8 acre. It includes IntelliCut technology that automatically adjusts blade speed based on grass density, a 2-in-1 mulch and bag system, and a dual-port charger that charges both batteries simultaneously.
The 14-inch deck suits tight yards, narrow pathways, and properties with obstacles, though taller users may find the fixed handle height lower than preferred for comfortable operation.

Mowing Small Yards, Fruit Tree Rows, and Narrow Pathways Where a Full-Size Mower Won't Fit
If you're managing a compact backyard with fruit trees, raised beds, tight turns, or a sloped section where a heavier mower creates control issues, the 14-inch deck and sub-30-pound weight give you meaningful maneuverability advantages over standard push mowers.
The single-lever cutting height adjustment moves through six positions without bending down to adjust individual wheel clips. IntelliCut draws more power when it detects thicker grass and conserves battery on lighter passes, which extends effective runtime across variable terrain.
The dual-port charger brings both batteries to full simultaneously, reducing downtime between sessions. If you already own Worx 20V PowerShare tools, the included batteries work across that entire platform.
What to Expect from the Worx 40V 14-Inch Mower in Real Use
For small yards with standard grass growth, users consistently report finishing both front and back yards with significant battery charge remaining. On overgrown or clumpy grass, the mower handles the load in mulch mode without issue, though pushing through dense overgrowth can cause the motor to cut out temporarily if resistance is too high. Users on sloped terrain report the lightweight design makes it easier to control on grades where heavier mowers become difficult to manage.
The 14-inch deck is genuinely narrow and is the right fit for properties with tight spaces and obstacles. Users with larger open lawns will find the narrower path requires more passes and should look at wider deck options instead.
The dual-port charger is a practical inclusion, allowing both batteries to charge on a single outlet connection. The handle height has been noted as more comfortable for shorter users, with taller users finding the fixed length requires a slightly bent posture over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do the batteries last on a single charge during mowing?
Runtime depends on grass density and how frequently IntelliCut ramps up blade speed. On a small maintained yard, users report finishing both front and back areas with roughly half the battery charge remaining. On overgrown grass that demands sustained high output, expect shorter sessions before needing to recharge.
Can the Worx 40V mower batteries be used in other Worx tools?
Yes. The two included 20V 4.0Ah batteries are part of the Worx PowerShare platform and work in any of the 140+ Worx 20V compatible tools, including trimmers, blowers, and drills. This makes them useful beyond mowing, and any PowerShare batteries you already own will also run this mower.
Does the mower bag and mulch at the same time, or do you switch between modes?
The mower operates in one mode at a time. You either attach the collection bag for bagging or insert the mulch plug to direct clippings back into the lawn. Switching between modes requires swapping the bag for the plug or vice versa, which takes only a moment but is a manual step rather than an automatic toggle.
