ego steel mower - Jak na to + styl
I’ve been cutting my grass with a reel mower past 6 years no gas no battery and you can’t beat the cut you get from these
I don't know why, but as a homeowner who currently has lots of EGO products and batteries, but ended up going back to gas mower... the mower that most interest me is EGO's new commercial mower lmx5300sp. That mower is similar but takes two batteries and seems more powerful. I am considering buying the commercial tool only model.
Thank you for buying and posting this. I have not been able to find any review videos on this supposedly released product (which is odd). EGO's release of this product has been really quiet/muted because I expected a few early bird review from some of their influencers to hit first. My local blue colored big box store says they have 3 in stock but when I went there to look in person, nobody knew where they were. I am seriously considering this as my 13 year old honda mower is ready to retire. I tried an EGO model in 2020 and ended up returning it because it wasnt quite powerful enough to cut my thick st. augustine lawn without missing blades. I was even hesitant to buy the 8+lbft EGO mowers because i was afraid it would not be as powerful as my honda mower. This one seems to be the one I have been waiting years for.
Thanks Chris
Excellent unboxing and review Tech! I’m looking forward to seeing your first mow!
Thanks, Lindsay
You and me both!
I pulled the trigger last weekend. Coming from a Honda HRX 217. Short take. Very good power and much better suction than my earlier EGO. Exceptional mulching and bagging. A very clean cut with blades that came very sharp. Maybe an adjustment, but I'm not an immediate fan of the transmission. There is what I refer to as a turbo -lag. It takes about half a second to a second for the transmission to engage. A little problematic for me with a steep front lawn. Thank you for your review, it definitely helped with my purchase.
Hey thanks! Glad it helped
That’s a nice looking mower can’t wait to see how it runs!! Great in depth reviews as always. Thanks for sharing
Thanks buddy
Another excellent review, I think the aluminum is a nice change to the poly decks or the occasional 20 inch steel deck, im still rockin my mower and it’s kicking butt. Love the in depth review, keep on going, Brooklyn is smiling down on us all😇🙏🏼🙏🏼
Alex thank you
Great as always
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for this great review. It seems like Ego is positioning this to compete with the Milwaukee aluminum deck battery mower. It'd be great to see a comparison of this Ego aluminum against the Milwaukee.
So sorry about Brooklyn. We love our babies.
Thanks buddy it’s hard on everyone especially when you love your pets
I can see why they did what they did, but this is definitely version 1.0 to test the market. I just grabbed the curved pole edger from cutlers at Christmas. Excited to finally have my first edger and test it out.
HEY>>>>>> first time visiting your site>>>>>>>>>>>>>GREAT REVIEW!!
Thank you so much I hope you stay with us and what more do you own by the way?
Thanks for making this video, good overview of this new mower. That said, this price seems outrageous. I got the Select Cut XP with 10ah battery on sale at lowes last summer for $649. It included the extra blade and side discharge. I cant imagine that the change to a steel deck and updated motor is worth double the price. I think the only way I'll change to another mower is if Ego releases a 30" mower.
$649 was a steal! Thanks for hanging with us 👍🏻
Conns: not a true 22" blade
No side discharge plug
Price $.
Good video, can't wait to see it in action, hopefully cutting tall tough grass and shooting it threw the side
I like it. I do not use the slef propelled. A lot of money but it really does seem so well made and durable.
Do you own this mower
I own the Ego LM2167SP which is a kit that comes with a 12AH battery and their most powerful charger. Comes with mulching blade and high-lift blade too. Got it on sale for $599 which is about the same price as the battery if you buy it separately.
Ppl hated the Speed-IQ self-propel but I got used to it by now. It still cuts my grass great. Just have to maintain it good and clean underneath the deck after every use which isn't that hard.
Yup, we reviewed that a bunch of times, great deal 👍🏼
I am currently looking for a discount price. Can you help with a link please?
I have been a landscape contractor for 30 years, and we use 21' commercial mower's daily. They have steel aluminum decks and hold up nicely. I have to say this ego mower is very nice. It's reasonably priced. I think ego has some nice equipment out.
Thanks Ben
@TechMadeEzy Hello im looking at either this one or the 2156 model. Which one do you recommend? I have a smaller lawn which takes about 15 minutes to cut. And as of now I got a 24volt kobalt mower that doesn't have much power and constantly shuts off even with low grass
@bobbywiegner525 hi Bobby I am still working on my review on the newer model
Reasonable priced? 😂
Fantastic review👍 i hope this model is coming to Europe....all we have here is the 2130 model.....and i need a powerful machine for my garden.... lots of shade amd mostly wet.....
Roy thank you
After 8 years of mowing with my little ryobi 18v mower ,its finally worn out. It cant cut my front lawn well anymore because the grass has gotten too thick. Ive been eyeing Ego for a while , I like their battery system as opposed to ryobi 40v because ryobi seems to really cheapened up even more on quality over the past few years. I picked up this new Ego over the weekend and cant wait to try it out
Good luck, Scott I hope it works great for you
I remember earlier Ego mowers did not come with a side discharge attachment either but all you had to was contact Ego and request one and they would give it to u for free. Great video like always but remember the most important part is how the mower performs which you will do in the spring.
Great point
Mine came with side discharge. I've used it twice in six years. So, I don't care if there is no side discharge.
Thank you for the video Al. I’m excited to see how it performs in the spring, but seems there are a fair bit of trade offs compared to the LM2156SP for that aluminum deck.
I’ll be debating between this EGO model and the M18 mower come spring.
Thanks buddy
Great review, thank you. I lappreciate that Ego continues to innovate. Price is a bit high for me, but otherwise a great new product.
Mark thank you
Shiny! I haven't used a cast-aluminum deck mower since my Dad's 1970 Craftsman. That mower lasted 30 years. After two gas mowers since then, he uses an Ego now.
👍🏼
Thanks for posting this in-depth early review. I've been eyeing this mower since its announcement as a possible replacement for my Honda HR215 SX (with aluminum deck!) which, after 30 years, is giving me nothing but headaches lately. The aluminum deck and improved self-propelled function on this EGO mower makes it an attractive replacement. The EGO is an expensive mower, but the Honda was too. Might be time to give this new mower a try.
Thanks Ryan
Seen a couple reviews stating the Self Propel drive is insanely loud. Have yet to see a video of it in action. Is this true? 1 of the reviews said they returned it for that reason.
I don't rear side discharge, nor use the high lift blade, so not including them means less extra crap in my garage, which is a bonus for me. Not that I have any interest in replacing my current Ego mower with one that costs 3x as much. The improvements do look nice, though. I wish they sold a non-self propelled model to reduce cost and complexity.
Great videos, I was going to upgrade to this mower but I think I’m going to wait another year or two they making lots of changes it seems they can’t find the right one yet
I hear you 👍🏼
Great video.
I'm waiting for the lmx5300sp.
Im told they're rushing it to market here in Australia due to high commercial demand.
That will be interesting
I have 2 lawnmowers and to keep it short they both wouldn't start and the rain for the last week has my lawn growing crazy. I went to Lowe's and said screw it I want the top dog and bought it even though it was pretty expensive. I wish I watched this awesome video before I got it to make setup way faster. I was trying to figure out where side discharge was, and why two mulch blade's, and why it had Bluetooth. This is my fifth ego product and I love each one. No gas, no oil, no carburetor getting clogged up, no air filter, and no pull string. I cut my lawn with the mulch accessory in and the bag on lol. I didn't know it came in there 🤦🏾. I was wondering why the bag wasn't getting full. The mower did awesome, my grass was high and I didn't even I was mulching and it didn't leave any grass behind. This video answered all my questions, thank you so much 🙏🏼 Also when you register they will send you the high lift blade for Free.
5 lawn mowers is very excessive to have especially since ego is not that even old of a company
@@shangrilaladeda It's his 5th Ego product, not Ego lawnmower. It sounds like it's his first Ego lawnmower. They have amazing string trimmers, hedge trimmers etc. I have 4 other Ego products besides my mower myself and my lawn mower just turned 8.
@@frommatorav1 congratulations
Man that sucker looks really nice! That’s the one for me when the sun starts to shine again!😂
Is this cheaper LM a bad alternative? Greenworks Pro MO80L421 21-inch self-propelled cordless 80v mower
Thanks for the very thorough and upbeat review.
I think the Aluminum deck and the Greenworks steel decks are needed and the right way to go for these.
That said this is a ridiculous price for a mower without side discharge. I may be in the minority but I do mostly side discharging with my Husqvarna Honda lawn mower and the shoot should be on the deck not out the back.
That said the cost of this unit plus the battery replacement after 5 + years is a deal-breaker for me and most people who are just using the lawn mower to cut their own property. What's next leasing or financing your lawn mower??
Thais for sharing
Thanks for the review. This looks awesome. I have an old model, but its not powerfully enough to cut zoysia or to lift tree leaves.
Im probably not buying this now totally out of my budget. Maybe in the future when I actually need a new mower. Would like to see hoc down to 3/4", harder metal on the blades, and back drum or at least to be compatible with their striping kit.
Thanks, can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can try this out
Thanks for the video. Picked one up this week. Mine came with the high lift blade. Also had an offer for a free second lift blade when you register the mower. I registered but the blade offer was not mentioned. Agree on the side discharge, should have came with it for price. I’d never use it so not a big deal.
That's weird, the packing list doesn't mention it coming with the high lift, we'll you got it, nice!
Where did you find one?
@markluna9186 is you blade 21 or 22.inches long?
Mine came with 2 mulching blades and the offer of the free high-lift with product registration. I see upon registration, EGO lists the mower as 21.7".
@@robertk1726😅😅EGO should correct that. No good
Looks like a great mower. I have the lm2130sp. This woukd be too heavy for my usage as i load it in my 2017 chevy bolt ev to mow other lawns. I have never saw the need for aluminum deck. No cracks in my plastic deck. I bought my mower in 2019
Thanks Nathan, on a side note Steve mentioned your conversation with him on FB, yes he's my guy for social media! thanks for always staying with us, sure appreciate your support.
I maybe upgrading my mower in a year or so. In your opinion what would be the best option not counting the commercial model. I was thinking of the 2156xp self propelled model. Thanks for your opinion
@nathandingman6846 that’s the one I would do it’s proven it works fine LM2156sp
@@TechMadeEzySame here.🤜🤛
This definitely appears to be more of a commercial grade mower, geared towards the professionals in the industry. Im glad that speed IQ got the boot haha. Howerver, im not a fan of the deck height adjustments, thet should have just put the cutting height at the numbers instead of placeholders. Overall, im sold on it and will be picking one up this season
They are actually coming out with a commercial model believe it or not but I'm with you on the deck adjustment
Nice video. I'm going to holdout a bit longer. Sounds like they may have enough power/speed now that a much larger deck/cut size would be possible.
Thank you Rick
👍👍
I've been using battery powered mowers for the last few years, but you can get a Time Master for that kind of money.
I agree they are getting expensive thanks for watching
As someone who got the Speed IQ model, it would have been nice to have this model last year. However, $1,200 USD for a lawn mower is getting insane.
I love the clean appearance to the underside. I think the extra weight should improve cut quality. Previous models have been a bit bouncy, especially in the front end. Blade / deck width do not match up to reality. Try this for your own personal experience. Measure front to back and left to right. I found that measuring the deck front to back is longer and closer to advertised length on my LM2150SP. Most likely it’s a proprietary design choice.
I will, thanks Matthew good points
Toro has had metal and aluminum deck options for the 60 volt lines for years. I have both and were a lot less with a better self drive system.
I saw you mentioned not able to connect the mower to the app, it seem you can not connect it to the ego power + app but you can connect it to the ego connect app. to interesting feature listed in the app I have noticed but have yet to try is the ability to set max self propelled speed, which factory default is set slightly be low max 4mph speed. Also feature called super turbo mode, which seems to increase the speed of the turbo mode setting. As some others have mentioned that it comes with an extra mulching blade and no longer the high lift blade. there is a pamphlet in there that if you register in 90 day you can get a free high lift blade. I called up and looked into this, so its not automatic after you register, you have to call and request and mention the pamphlet and they will take your information to send you the high lift blade, they process it like a warranty claim. I am waiting to get mine.
Thanks buddy
I was really hoping for an actual 22 inch blade but realistically I figured they'd have a 22 inch deck and 21.5 inch blade. Little disappointing to see but it's still on par with milwaukee's 21 inch mower. It's nice to see they upgraded the cutting hight system, although that's really what all their other mowers should have offered, my 2156 sp can't mow evenly if I'm going on a slight grade, going slightly uphill cuts about 1/4 higher than downhill, you can physically see the deck raising when you engage self propel, very disappointing design flaw on ego's end.
thanks for watching
I completed my first mow here in Florida (Empire Zoysia) and the cut quality of this new mower is superb. It's on par with my Super Recycler 190cc and HRX217 200cc both set to 3,360 rpm.
Operation and handling of the Ego are nice. Run time is good on Speed #2 and Turbo mode. I really dislike the screamy-whiney electric motor drive system though. It's embarrassingly loud and to me, makes the mower sound toy-car-cheap and just as loud as my gassers. The high pitch screaming gear whine drowns out the nice quiet blade whir sadly. Is this sound normal for Egos? This is my first.
The blade length thing you spoke of is definitely scammy-feeling on Ego's behalf. I measured the blades on my Honda and Toro this morning and they too are 21" long like the Ego blade... the only difference is that while Ego deceptively markets this as a "22 inch blade & cut," Honda and Toro appropriately market theirs as a "21 inch cut." Ego's approach feels scammy to me. That's how I see it. On a side note, the Ego blades are flimsy & flexy (and softer steel) than the Toro and Honda blades... by quite a bit. Also, they are not available anywhere as of yet.
Can't wait for your review and take on this stuff.
Steve
Thanks for sharing that’s really good news. Yes Ego mowers are known to make that sound.
Thanks for this. If it’s loud and annoying af like a few of my neighbors dewalt battery leaf blowers I’ll pass on this thing. They think it’s not a disturbance because it’s not a gasser but clearly some of the battery blowers are more annoying than a regular old gas blower.
Not sure if you noticed but they give a free high lift bagging blade when you register within 90 days
I heard I didn’t see anything in the box. I guess we’ll find out but thank you for your note.
Wow! Great review. A couple of thoughts. Blade length 21" to me means a 21" cut.
No high lift blade 🤔 Possibly not needed with the new deck and higher torque. I'm also wondering if my high lift blade would work if I wanted to use a high lift blade.
No side discharge shoot. I don't side discharge, I always mulch, but would my side discharge shoot fit and work ok should I want to side discharge.
Al, again, great review. I can't wait to see the first cut this Spring. I know it's pricey but being all in with EGO equipment, if the cut shows an improvement, I'll probably get the tool only😊 Have a great weekend 👍
Hi Frank the high lift made or new mulching blade was talked about. UT these seem like standard mulch blades. Not sure if the previous select cut blades will work but good question. Thanks buddy
Hello im looking at either this one or the 2156 model. Which one do you recommend? I have a smaller lawn which takes about 15 minutes to cut. And as of now I got a 24volt kobalt mower that doesn't have much power and constantly shuts off even with low grass
Bobby I saw your original post, I’m currently in the middle of reviewing the newer model
I’m okay with this mower not shipping with a rear side discharge as I like a more manicured look on my lawn, plus paying for something I would never use would be upsetting. Thinking about their new mower not shipping with a high lift blade but a second mulching blade could also be a positive. With the deck design the testing might have shown that the mulching blade was the best option for cutting between the two blade designs. Having a spare blade shipped with the mower is a real plus. The only disappointing aspect of this mower is the IP rating. Washing mowers is pretty standard and only having a splash rating is underwhelming, especially for a mower with electric power by battery and possible water intrusion into the battery storage area. Hopefully under usage this might be nullified. Nice video on the overview of this machine. I will look forward to seeing an update of it in use.
😎👍
Thanks
It’s a hybrid mulch blade that allows max lift sort of a two in one no high lift blade necessary
It's funny because ego is actually sending me one so I guess there is one that exists
I have every ego tool. This is my 4th or 5th ego mower. I have this one, there's something going on with the lights, I can get them on, but I have to remove the battery to get them to turn off. It bogged down on me a couple of times, and the turbo mode chews through batteries. I think dual battery 24-26 inch would have been ideal.
Hope you do a warranty claim or exchange it if you bought it at Lowe’s?
The price is nutts.
Oh yessss... no good. Way too expensive 😢😮😢😢
Love the mower EXCEPT! no digital screen is a major backwards step for me. I liked being able to see the battery percentage as I’m using it. Maybe if the new display had 5 lights across the top to indicate 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100% just like the charger instead of just 1 green light that goes red when it’s dead then I’d be ok with it but as it is… no thanks ego
I'm a techie and I did like the actual screen with the battery percentage.
I noticed that on mine, I can see clearly see the battery bars (on the battery in its compartment) from the walk behind mowing position.
Concerning the blade length, blades are nominal measurements and not actual but 1 inch difference seems like quite a bit difference from nominal to actual. Seems like Ego wanted to make something a bit better than the residential units but not quite commercial. The price seems to reflect that. Do you think you will try out the commercial version of this mower?
Hi not sure at $1300 tool only. Small channel still working a full time job also.
Have you tested this beast yet? I'm going to upgrade my old Ego to the newer models and Im torn between this one and the LM2156SP. Which one would you get if you were to upgrade an Ego mower from 2015?
Just got this and grass is still frozen, I like the 2156sp let's see how this does when the weather warms up.
I have this mower. I cant get the Bluetooth to work on it. Does anyone know if the app for it is up and running yet?
Looking forward to the comparison videos between this one and the previous generation(s)!
Did you see this ?
Head2Head EGO vs MilWaukee Steel vs Aluminum
czcams.com/video/Mr-be-dyBuk/video.html
@@TechMadeEzy I did, but I already have an EGO mower and string trimmer, so I'm already invested in EGO's line. I'm just wondering if/when I should upgrade my old mower for a newer model. But those head to head ones are great for those that haven't purchased a product line yet!
Which model do you have ?
Could you please show if you are able to change the blade speed while running? One of my gripes with the last mower is that you could only activate turbo when disengaging the blade.
I don't think you can but I should know once I can actually mow some grass.
you can
Has anyone seen the new commercial push mower
It seems like an introductory commercial unit. Trying to appeal to the crew leader with the apps usage stats and possible location.
Can you turn blades off and still use the self propel
yes
Nice little upgrade! pretty pricey 😅
I'd rather have 2 mulch blades than a high lift blade, and nobody does side discharge anymore on a push mower. Bravo Ego.
The high lift play is also good when you're cleaning up your lawn if you have too much mulch so it does come in handy
You miss some details.. too bad. They should be included in the box.
I always use side discharge because the mulching on the 2156 is not good and I don't always want to bag it. Side discharge is a good middle ground.
Let us know if it’s really that much better than the Select Cut XP. Personally I wanted a steel deck, side discharge, more power than the Select Cut XP, but I couldn’t resist an 80V Greenworks 21 inch self propelled with 2 batteries for $350 shipped.
Will definitely do an update, $350 that's insane, you stole that!
Is a rear side discharge not available at all? I never bag, and been cutting grass for 70 years.😥
I'm not sure I haven't seen any thing on any websites that you can purchase it's weird
Hi Al,
In your pros & cons you mentioned that this mower has 3500 rpm. It actually has 3350 rpm, just FYI. Also, I contacted EGO to ask what the rpm was for the 1 and 2 speeds. Here is what they said 3 different times I called them: Speed 1 = 2650 rpm, Speed 2 = 2850 rpm, and Speed 3 (Turbo) is 3100 rpm. Each time I called EGO they responded with the same thing; 3100 rpm for turbo as well as the same rpm for speeds 1 and 2. I asked why there was a discrepancy in the turbo rpm’s, when their specs say 3350 rpm. They said that the only way to get the 3350 rpm is with the app on your cell phone. That sounded crazy to me, but that’s what they said. Although they advertise 3350 on their website specs, you only get 3100 rpm in turbo mode without using the cell phone app. And for those who don’t have web-enabled cell phones, you won’t get more than 3100 rpm. To me EGO should make that information clear on their website, as well as make it clear that no side -discharge or high-lift blade is included.
Who does not have a Web-enabled cell phone? every single one manufactured in the last 10 years has been web-enabled. also it says on the box what comes inside and mine came with a pamphlet that with registration you get a free high-lift blade
Excellent information, appreciate you sharing!
Your audio says, and also shown on screen, that #2 hgt is 3/8" and #3 hgt is 3/4". I think you meant 1 3/8" and 1 3/4".
Yes my mistake thanks
Also thinking about the new Ego 28" snowblower. Do you know if that 12 amp battery will fit in this mower?
I gotta tell you the 24 inch I use that I went to check out the 28 inch it is huge and it’s definitely heavier to maneuver. Yes it’ll fit 2 x 12Ah batteries for sure.
To clarify .... 12 AH batteries (from the 28" snowblower) will fit this mower ... physical size. Showing the 10AH batteries in place in the video did not show much extra space for a a physically larger battery.
Yup it will
@Hucklebuz it will fit 100%
Greenworks new 30" commercial for 2024 looks very promising. I've used ego casually and on jobs for years. You'd need about 3 12Ah batteries to mow over 1/2 acre, you might need to cycle them out. The discharge chute design is super annoying.
I'm currently transitioning over to Stihl electric for some jobs. The mulching blades will cause grass to collect under the deck and clog it up under most conditions.
I LOVE last year's speed iq model with the 12 amp battery. I've been keeping up with my 1 acre property with it for a year now, not a single issue. Once I got the hang of speed iq, I couldn't imagine going back to using buttons and levers again. Even after the battery craps out, I'm hanging on to this bad boy.
I like the screen I have to say I like the percentage for the battery, but you’re probably aware they discontinued this Mower
Worth 1200? Absolutely not! Love your videos and I'm a huge fan of EGO, just not paying that much for this mower
Thanks for the love bro 👍🏻
I just bought mine from Lowes after Ego had me return my Speed IQ mower that I had for 6 months after complaining about the Speed IQ feature. Mine had a card inside stating that if you registered it within 10 days they will send you the high lift blade for free. I’m really bummed about the noisy self propelled motor. It sounds like a kids battery operated ride on car. This mower should have come with the 12ah battery and the cell phone case and the high lift blade that the Speed IQ mower did at this price point. No grass yet to cut to be certain I will keep it
Thanks
I have used your reviews a lot to gain information on the EGO LM2206SP. Wondering approximately when you will have a video showing this new aluminum wonder mower actually running? I have checked reviews posted on Lowes of which I found 3 reviews. Two of the reviewers have taken this ego mower back for a refund due to what they describe as a "deafening and unbearable" gear whine when using self-propelled feature. One reviewer said that even using 35db ear plugs did not really help block out the gear whinning noise, but apparently even that did not work. Would like to see and hear this mower run to decide if this is true. Like you said, that a lot of money to spend and I have already had to fight for a refund on the last mower they made which the self-propel feature was an absolute problem.
Ray thank you, I did see some videos where the self-propelled was pretty darn loud but it wasn't cutting grass. Well it's February it's still pretty cold out and I'm in the Northeast so I'm not going to have any grass to cut for a while. But when I do I promise I will share thanks for your support
Could you please tell me if the wheels 🛞 are rubber or plastic.
Hi we did a close up of the wheels in the video if that helps also, feels like rubber hard to tell for sure
is it smaller than the 2100 series? The body looks more compact, but it may just be the video.
Not sure if it is.
I called EGO support on 2/26/24 and found out EGO does NOT sell a side discharge chute for the LM2206SP. I told the rep I could not find that accessory on EGO website and the rep said "well then EGO does not sell it." I find a SDC to be very necessary occasionally so no purchase for me.
Maybe it will be out soon? The mower just launched.
Do they have a non self propelled system on the new models? I’d rather not have an extra thing that could break.
Hi no they don’t at this time but that can change if they launch one. I’m not aware they will but there is a possibility
I have a samll yard so i have no need for something like this. However, I dont understand this product. What I like about my EGO is that its light, it makes it easy to use and store. So they really have just made a gas mower with an electric motor with this one. I have to say, i would just buy a gas mower over spending $1200.
I understand, I’m glad they still make many models even around $500
Has ego fixed their battery problems? My 5.0 overheat almost every time I use them in my line trimmer. They get the circle ⭕️ of death. Hard to convince me to invest in more battery stuff when they don’t last. It’s really frustrating when you can’t finish the job because of a dumb battery issue.
hi, what battery problem are you referring to?
Is the aluminum deck really necessary? There are thousands of mowers out there that have a composite deck and are holding up great.
The good news is they have many mowers to choose from with the polycarbonate deck. You don’t have to go with aluminum.
Thanks for the review! I’d never buy this mower though, because 1) it’s too heavy to take up the stairs between my front and back yards, 2) it’s too big to store where I currently store my other Ego mower - I prefer the retractable handle, 3) I don’t care about or need a heavier aluminum deck - my old Ego deck is perfect, 4) I’d never pay so much for another inch or so of width, 5) I don’t need Bluetooth on my lawn mower. This unit looks like they just tried to make a more expensive mower and 6) it’s way too expensive for a rotary lawn mower. At this weight and price, I’d buy a powered reel mower, which has a vastly superior cut. Sorry Ego.
Hi are you going to test the new LMX5300sp as looking at buying it? Thanks Andrew
I am, spring is just starting, I need me some nice grass :)
Great when will it be out as I would like to make a decision soon? Thanks
@Montie1960 👍🏻
@@TechMadeEzy any idea on timing on testing the LMX5300sp as I would like to buy it soon but want to know how good it is in the wet as the standard 21” Ego machines (looking at one review) only gave it 2.8 out of 5 for damp/wet grass performance and as a contractor I don’t want to spend £2k (machine, charger and 2 x 10ah batteries) and then find it is useless in the wet! Thanks
I can't find the EGO 22" High Lift bagging blade anywhere. And, I understand when it is available it's $50! Will this model bag if the grass bag is attached using the mulching blades? (My honda 217 HRX did)
Crazy
@@TechMadeEzy Do you know if the bag can be used with the existing blades since that high lift blade isn't available yet?
@tooagle yes why not. Of course the blade won’t offer a lot of suction but it’ll still cut and go into the bag.
The high lift blade can be had free if you register in 90 days, and call support asking about how to get the free high lift bagging blade mentioned on the pamphlet that comes with the mower. Lust got mine took about 2.5 weeks to get it. Its not that the blade cost $50 dollars, it is that it seems it can't be bought separately at least yet. The $50 is for the High lift Bagging blade and the main cutting blade set.
Great review. Seems you covered about as much as possible without mowing. I'd definitely be calling EGO to find out why you got 2 mulching blades. Looks like Mark, below, got a high lift blade with his. It's fascinating that EGO made an aluminum deck and didn't incorporate side discharge right into the deck like most metal deck mowers have. Why they stick to that very sorry excuse for side discharge out the rear is confusing now that they have a chance to move it. (Guessing it's because this deck is cast instead of stamped so it would be trickier to implement.) But, yeah, it should include a chute for their side discharge for the price of this mower. Their marketing dept gets them in more trouble with their customers. They say this one has a 22" blade and you proved it doesn't have one. I mean it's the same as the 21" mowers. That blade is only 20" or so. But, still, they need to stop making a claim as to size or performance when it isn't accurate.
Now, go find some tall grass somwhere and put 'er through its paces. We can't wait for a cutting video. LOL
Mike thanks! It's weird because the packing list of what's included didn't state high lift blade so we will see as folks comment. As always appreciate your comments and perspective 👍🏻 now we wait for grass
i am watching this video even though i don't have the funds to purchase the mower
Well thank you! And just so you'll know there are many models some around $500 as well if you're looking for a battery operated mower
If EGO was not a greedy company, they would send you one for a special affordable price. This mower is too expensive.
@@rhoodj You get the lifting blade when you register it... for free. Is that affordable enough?
At these prices, many buyers will be shopping for gas alternatives, where you can get the best Honda makes for cheaper than this…and the discharge chute will be included!
Unfortunately, Honda no longer makes lawn mowers.
The best Honda makes is $999, for $200 more you never have to worry about oil and gas again. + 10 Amp battery into ego platform + a more powerful mower then honda according to specs. you also get aluminum deck vs honda plastic deck. Seems like a fine deal
Honda no longer makes lawnmowers
I would just buy another brand. I brought the Ryobi mower for 300. Had it for over 3 years. I think Ryobi new mower go for like 3 something, not as good as the EGO but, for the savings, I'll get that over this. I'm sorry, not sorry
@LeDude1 I disagree, 1200 is too steep. There are other Battery mowers that are starting at 300 on sale. May not be the quality but still a better deal. I can get 3 Ryobi mowers for this price and they come with a 3 year warranty. No one needs a life time on the frame. The battery or motor will go after that 5 years and you will have to buy a new mower anyway
I've been looking into electric mowers and ego has been doing this stuff for like 10+ years, has like 5 generations of products so they know how to make a darn good mower with their battery system.. but at 1200 bucks for just the mower I'm going to HAVE to shop for the milwaukee mower that comes with the weed-eater for 1100. Everything I've seen, both companies make great mowers, it's just milwaukee was supposed to be the expensive, commercial option, ego was the cheaper household name.
I would not spend $1300 for this mower most of that price is the battery. All mowers tool only should be $499.
Ego needs to make a cylinder mower
Is this cheaper LM a bad alternative? Greenworks Pro MO80L421 21-inch self-propelled cordless 80v mower
Hey Looks like deck is 22” but blade is slightly less which is common
This has a rear discharge feature ?
Do you have part number
Does this model come without self propelled ?
The self propelled system is crucial. Has to be well built especially for commercial use.
That price they leave out the high lift blade and rear discharge.
Too many different models. Just make several decent heavy duty models.
Nice tutorial
No part number at this time
Aluminum deck only comes in self propel at this time.
I wonder if this was made for commercial application more than residential.
No, they have a commercial model launch very shortly , $1300 tool only
why is this better than a Honda HRX?
Do they do one in aluminium? 😉
You're question "Is it worth it?"
My Answer "if you're really wealthy but want to mow your own lawn"
It is pricey for sure, especially when they still sell dual blade mowers around $699
I feel this is a trial product. They are trying different things then innovating based on the reviews.
I really don’t like the two wheel adjustment. The lever was so much easier. The person buying this isn’t folding it up, but it standing vertical compressed is real nice
Still no SIDE DISCHARGE??? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ The rear discharge clogs every.single.time.
The guy down in Florida called The Lawn Care Nut, he had a high lift blade that came with his. Did they give you the wrong 2nd blade?
Interesting, OK thank you
How many long hours to cut big thick grass and battery life?🙄
Big thick grass will definitely use more battery. It also depends on the size of your lawn. You can always get more batteries. Actually there’s a sale right now on this mower and they give you another battery but it is a small battery. amzn.to/3wELTt0
Well I just spent $999 on the POS Speed IQ mower back in September that is again yes a POS I think I’m done with Ego for a while
What happened?
@@TechMadeEzy The Speed IQ feature is so jerky. It will lurch forward even on a level lawn. The self propel is also so very loud its embarrassing. Ego has offered me a repair @ Lowes as Ego has discontinued this model and feature according to the warranty dept. I have owned all the other versions of Ego self propel mowers and this one is an epic fail and they know it.
When there is no longer a gas alternative the prices will be even higher
Can you wash off with a hose when needed?
Many have with the previous non aluminum models, EGO says you are not suppose to last I checked. I don't do it with my mowers.
@@TechMadeEzyThanks! Mowers get cruddy during the season in my world.
I hear you
