@techmadeezy - Jak na to + styl
I didn't know Howard Stearn was so knowledgeable about mowers, but he helped convince me to buy an Ego and so far I'm very happy with it.
Hey now
@@TechMadeEzy Sorry, to me you sound just like him 😁
Lol it's cool, he says
Hey now so that's why I said that 😊
Lol. Didn’t hear it until I read the comment. Now that’s all I hear.
I knew he sounded familiar 😂
What impressed me after this comparison is the fact that you must live in a community that does not fine you for allowing the grass to grow to this height. You must be fortunate not to live under the iron fist of out of control and power-hungry HOA. Great real world independent test!
Great breakdown. I just bought the green works from my local tractor supply and I love it. We had grass from 14-28 inches high (lots of land and the tractor broke). It took alittle time, but I got around 1/4 acre down to 4" with it. I will say my biggest complaint would be the choke delay. I cleared it out a few times and it still fought me to restart. Otherwise it was amazing. And being the cheapest option demo'd, I'm glad to see it holds its own here as well as it does.
Best of luck, Greenworks makes solid product
Probably one of the best mower comparisons I've ever seen. 👍
I bought property with yard and pasture that was neglected for over a decade, and the same Ego mower. Wow did it impress! Grass has been growing all year, and I mowed it down along with thorny wild roses, small tree saplings, etc. Don't really recommend that as there's some obvious wear and tear under the deck and the blades look terrible, but it got the needful done. I had to mow literally several acres of grass cutting a driveway into the place along with enough room to move a large RV in. Initially I used the mulching blade that came attached, but then switched to the efficiency blade with side eject. That clogged up a lot, but switching to the high lift blade with the side eject worked best. I probably ought to have bagged it but would have been having to empty the bag every couple minutes with as thick and tall as the grass was. I've been very happy with all the Ego tools and can't wait to eventually get a zero turn riding mower...
I've tortured my greenworks pro 21" 60v a few times. My back yard is all natural, like a field. When we get heavy rains, the grass and weeds can quickly get up to 4-5 feet tall (several different wild grasses, wild lettuce, and dandelions).
My Greenworks will chew through it no problems as long as I go slow by lifting the front of the mower and slowly bringing it down. If I go too fast, it will stall. My neighbor has a gas powered Honda and his stalls just as easily when the grass gets super tall.
It also helps to flip it over and sharpen the blades real quick before each use with my milwaukee rotary tool. Only takes about 5 minutes to do both edges. A 4AH battery also only lasts about 800 square feet when the grass is this tall, so it takes multiple charges and battery swaps.
The last time I had to do this was a year ago when we had rain every day for 20 days. Had to wait until it stopped raining and the ground dried up. Usually it gets mow once a month.
Just mulched 2 ft of grass with my ego in a 1/4 acre on 1 charge 7.5ah battery, tallest cut setting, it did okay, left some uncut spots but went over those areas for a 2nd pass and it's pretty good..
I mowed my yard with the grass just as high with my Ego Z6. It went through it like butter. It was side discharged because I don't have the mulching plug but man it did great. I did double cut the back because of the clippings, but by double cutting the clippings disappear. Ego all the way, I've never been disappointed.
Z6 is a BEAST love that, wish I had larger property
So jealous. The Z6 won't fit in my trailer (or garage, or budget) and so I am doomed to use the walk behinds for all of eternity.

good review, even my gas mower would choke in a 14 inch length , it is a cub cadet w/ honda 160 cc motor,, i recently got the EGO w/10ah battery,, 1st test on 5-21-22 lawn was thin early in season, 12 inch weeds in places , 70ft by 50 ft area only used 60% of battery,real test will be in june and july when rainy season occurs , lawn was dry and cleaned plastic deck with blower , looking forward to summer months ahead to do real test,, i only use mulching function, for last 20 yrs,, on this youtube channel with your test i was able to compare Ryobi 40v to EGO 56V and went with the EGO , I reside in florida and my lawn is much thinner than lawn in video,,thankyou for the great info you provide
I love my ego. I don't use the dual blades only a single one and it does great.
Im impressed by the greenworks. My experience with their stuff was a little different, but it was a different model mower.
GW Pro has had problems in the past stocking replacement parts. No parts = No warranty!
It should be noted that the Milwaukee comes with an extremely dull blade so it needs to be sharpened(not sure why they did that), and it's something I confirmed through searching online. Not sure how other mowers' blades come, but I was a bit disappointed with the cut quality at first but after sharpening it was perfect. Just FYI
Interesting. I’m a huge Milwaukee fan, but for $1000, we shouldn’t have to sharpen any blades out of the box.
@@jamess.7415 my thoughts as well
Good note & advice!
Great demo. Enjoyed watching. Sure happy I went battery on my mower, trimmer, and snow blower, now with the hike in gas price. Heard on the news, will be up to $6.00 this summer. 😖
If you really want to make a mess, take a look at the Ryobi Dethatcher in action.
Very thorough video of extreme conditions. Thanks Tech!
It isn´t extreme, it is tall but very sparse grass. Try to do it with tall and dense grass. No chance with that electric mowers.
Bought the EGO good battery life and cut. Also easy to operate for my daughter.
I have an ego and have been very happy with it. I love that their batteries all work with their other products
👍
Seeing this makes me even happier that I have a Honda hrn 216vkaa mower. Unstoppable quiet engine that starts on the first pull everytime, microcut twin blade system, rear wheel self propelled. Love it.
I had the same Honda Mower and I absolutely loved it. It was a workhorse for me. Motor, cut and reliability are second to none. But I got rid of it due to maintenance and other issues with gasoline. Bought an Ego Select Cut XP and I don’t regret it at all.
@@xftbllplyr2091 very cool. I hope it does good for you. I mow alot of really thick grass here in Kentucky. This is one of the main reasons why I wanted the extra horsepower and torque to the blade and when you are tired the rear wheel drive pulling you along back to the truck is pretty nice.
Only man in ton to get the most in detailed reveiw videos on stuff that matters, and this matters, great video my friend
Alex 💪🏼
Realistically, if this were my lawn, I’d do several passes with the bag, each time lowering the deck by one. Perhaps start with 7, then 6, then 5-the lawn should look significantly better kept after the third run. Still love my EGO with 10AH battery. I do notice, however, that the higher the deck with the EGO, the less up draft. For my Tall Fescue yard, I keep it at #5. Would love to go #7, but there’s much less suction, and the yard doesn’t look smooth after the cut. So #5 it is, which still looks great. All in all, for this convenience, I’m sold on the battery over the gas.
I bought an EGO about 5/6 years ago it's the older style ego but I absolutely love it. in the 5+yrs of owning it I have had ZERO problems battery and charge still work just like new 30 min. for full charge and ready to go. Anyone asking me about it I recommend the ego models all the time. I will say the Ego or any Battery run mower is more of an investment. I looked at it like how long will it take me to make my money back by NOT buying gas for a gas mower and at that point is when I looked at it like NOW I am saving money not to mention the environment In my book it's EGO FTW.
Excellent video and very reasonable tests. I think I will give this technology another couple of years.
Testing done right, great job.
Nice job! Thanks for the review. Love Brooklyn!
Thank you
I hit my Stock Milwaukee Blade with a grinder and it improved the cut quality a lot. The Milwaukee is equipped to do commercial mowing, the EGO you have isn’t, the push EGO is and have used it commercially it was my backup mower
I don't know why I'm watching this when I won't be touching a lawn mower in at least 6 months but it was entertaining. Pretty impressive how good the Milwaukee did, considering it only has an 18v battery while the others are much higher. I have the 80v Greenworks myself and it did better than the 60v one did though I never actually tried it in super tall grass.
Well it has 2 18v batteries making it a 36v mower vs 56v for the Ego.
Great test!
One thing I learned on my ego select cut, when cutting tall grass or up hill you need to make sure you are keeping a bit of down pressure on the front. It's so light it can float on you and leave those higher spots.
Agree Rick, I love how light it is and how easy it is to maneuver but it comes at a cost.
That's why I get rid of my 1st Gen Ego self propelled years ago. We have thick grass and it looked like crap, because of that light deck and 1 wheel drive. Back to a Honda.
Yup. Why I don't like mine.
Thank you for your review. I really appreciate it as I am looking for an electric mower. This was very helpful.
You are welcome! Thank you
A Thumbs up for your pup.
Thank you
She’s in heaven now.
@@TechMadeEzy Your welcome.
I’ve got the ego and love it.
Thanks Howard...

Excellent!! Thank you.
Thank you
Great comparison video. Thanks!
Thank you
I just got the gw 25" double blade it works pe4rfectly in mulch. clean cut no mess. the 25 is a good machine.
25 is nice definitely, congrats. I sure hope EGO starts making a 25
Thank you, I’ve decided !!!
Awesome Howad👍🔥《☆》The Milwaukee with a bucket of🍏green🌵paint🖖😎☮
I just bought the single blade Ego. I was gonna say it lacked a bit when mulching on #4 of 6 but after watching this video, I'd say it does just fine. They all leave some mulch unless you're only cutting off a small amount of grass. Thanks
Thanks Doug
My first EGO was a single blade. The best thing I ever did to modify it was to get the "High Lift" blade. After that, it went from being "my "electric" mower" to just being "my mower."
Really good testing just wish the latest Toro Super Recycler was included!
Yep hand downs ego is the best.
Really thorough. Great vid
Thank you Chris
Great video! Very informative and all inclusive for anyone looking to buy an electric mower. Thanks!
Thank you
I never would have considered an electric as my next choice, but this video clearly demonstrated their capabilities equal to gas. These are worthy of consideration for sure. Cheers!
I have the EGO select cut XP with a 7.5 Amp hour, my tiny lawn takes 15 minutes with the EGO, and I've cut my lawn even with the grass wet. It's just superior to anything else on the market. I used to have a electric kobalt corded mower, that thing easily took 1 hour with all the dragging of a heavy 100 foot power cord.
My naibor had the ego got about 3 years out of it till it took a crap then he got a Honda
My Ego 18" chainsaw broke so while I was waiting for it to get replaced I bought a corded electric Oregon 18" chainsaw which uses the same chain size. The cord is definitely a pain - batteries are pricey but the convenience is unbeatable! For some jobs I used the Ego Nexus to power the corded chainsaw, but unfortunately the 2000W limit of the Nexus proved limiting and I had to go easy or frequently reset the Nexus. Pretty amazing that the battery chainsaw can do the same work as the corded without the headaches. Hoping that Ego comes out with a 3000W inverter in the future though.
Best news? Ego sent a brand new chainsaw to replace the one that stopped working. Awesome warranty support!
I just bought this today and I am excited.
Finally a fair review all the others you could tell they got the greenworks free. If I needed a new lawnmower I would get an Ego. I currently own a 2017 Toro Super Recycler 21" with the cast aluminum deck and the Honda engine. It looks to me as though the Ego mulches comparable to my Toro. I have only ever mulched I've been mulching before it was cool since 1980s I had the 2 cycle lawnboy self propelled and I saved my mowing money to buy the special mulch plug. Back then the lawnboy either baged or side discharge I remember that special order plug cost me $30 in 1980 money today that's $106.00 LOL
Great video. A few years back I was looking at electric mowers and the Ego was getting rave reviews pretty much everywhere. But for me, I just can't get past that it looks like a spaceship or like it might transform into a robot or something. Plus, I prefer having a steel deck. I'm sure the Ego is plenty tough, but I just prefer steel... and also the 'traditional' mower look.
I ended up going with the Snapper 82v, which had good reviews and was one of the most powerful at the time (I think still ranks near the top). Got the 2 battery package, so by the time 1 dies, the other would be fully charged. Very satisfied. If I were looking today, I would probably lean toward the Milwaukee... but that price - ouch! To be honest, I'd probably go with Snapper again and save $500. But there are lot of solid choices out there these days - more than back when I was looking. That's why I enjoy watching videos like this. Good job.
Stephen thank you
My father shared some of those concerns a year ago, but ended up buying Ego. He loves it. Plus my sister that lives with my parents has no trouble using the Ego, and I don't think she has cut the grass since she was teen.
Stephen. Just be aware that the Milwaukee mower is it's first generation mower and some people are having issues with theirs. Ego does two steel deck versions and they both look like your traditional mowers. But everyone has their own likes and dislikes. Just do yourself a favour and do lot's of research if you are planning on going with a different brand than what you already have.
THANX FOR THIS VIDEO ITS VERY HELPFUL. appreciated buddy
Thanks Barry
Quite happy with my Greenworks. Interestingly, though, I've had grass longer than what's depicted in the video and the mower never "choked". I never use the turbo function either, as a matter of fact, and had great results with whatever length of grass was cut on my 1/2 acre plot on a single charge. Cool video-thanks!
Thanks
Blipblip88….just curious, is it possible your lawn was longer, but less thick than was shown in the video?
@@Steve-sc5pj Anything's possible.
My greenworks never chokes either I’ve hade mine for 3 years of hell mowing anything with it Ben a real good mower I just wish I had a nother battery for it but it will mow anything my gas one will and it leaves a better cut
@@jasonmartin9393 In the video 80v Greenworks had only 2 line power in one battery. Not fair for that machine.
I’ve never seen a grass gauge 🤣👌🏻I like it
Made me laugh
Great job....great review!
Thanks
Yeah I noticed that the Greenworks cut quality was better than Milwaukee. Would be interested to see how the Stihl RMA 510v stack up to these.
Just got the greenworks today on sale for 499. I'm coming from a gas Toro personal pace mower. When you consider the price I believe the greenworks wins. It's 500 less than the Milwaukee and 200 less than the ego. I mowed my lawn today (takes an hour) and still had one full battery left. One big thing with greenworks is battery cost. Extra batteries are well under 200.
Enjoy nice machine 👍🏼
Milwaukee mowers were shipped early without sharpened blades. With a properly sharpened blade (or even one sharpened by an amateur) it is unstoppable.
I'd check new mower blades anyway because every company is pretty much shipping mowers without sharpening their blades
I was calling that a mohawk before you mentioned that, so I think that's grass cutting canon now. :)
Good comparison. I'm thinking about replacing my gas with an electric, so this is handy.
Thanks Kirk let me know if you have any questions. Definitely take a look at some of the other reviews we did.
Great comparison thanks
Thank you I'm glad it helped
First let me start by saying great comparison video test, well done and well executed. I’m not in the market for a battery mower I have a large yard that I mow with 2 kubota diesel tractors ( my adult son uses one when he’s off and can help ), if I was in the market for a battery mower I think I would choose the Milwaukee. I like the fact the Milwaukee batteries would also fit my other Milwaukee power tools as well. that’s a big selling point fo me because I don’t have to invest in other batteries for different tools, kind of one size fits all. Once again great video thanks for the time and effort it takes to put it all together.
I hear you thank you so much for your words and if you ever need any help we'll always try our best
Thanks for this. Confirmed my assumption that battery mowers are pathetic. Iow two times a ewek but in florida rainy season i sometimes have to take 2 inches odf my thick st augustine lawn. My Honda HRX never leaves clumps like that. Grass ia chopped fine and disappears into the lawn
Thank you very much for all your efforts. It has helped in deciding which manufacturer to choose.
Thanks Lang, what mower do you own currently
awesome review, great controlled experiment
Thank you Caleb
Ego all the way!!!
12:25 Your "Mowhawk" is from mowing the same strip in the same direction. The way to solve that problem is to mow twice, at angles to each other. It's happened with every rotary mower I've ever used.
I just used my new Greenworks today on grass at least that tall. I didn't use turbo maybe should have and it did choke twice. I had a little Neuton for years that just died and since it choked all the time I didn't think anything of it, just cleared the grass out of the bottom and kept going. It also comes with a high lift blade which I'm sure I'll never use but might have done this job easier. I don't intend to let the grass get this high again of course but I was impressed it would cut it. All these mowers are great, I just got the best deal on the Greenworks and the batteries aren't outrageously priced. Great comparison!
Thanks
Be nice to see some of the new Ryobi mowers
AWESOME DEMONSTRATION
Thank you it was fun also
Thank You
Thank you for watching
I switched from gas to Ego years ago because of my wife. Those high hp gas mowers just give a better cut. My neighbor just bought an Ego dual blade maybe I'll give it a shot.
Dual blade definitely helps
Your videos encouraged me to get an EGO last week and I'm super happy with my purchase. Even though Milwaukee came out with this new mower, I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.
Thanks Jesus
If I wasn't using the mowers for work (lawn service) I would never have left the EGO platform. Excellent choice 👍.
You would miss out on your wallet if you bought the milwaukee. At 1099.00, you need to start planning on taking out a loan.
From what I've seen/read, you made the right choice. The Milwaukee might have the strongest motor, but there are lots...LOTS of people saying their mower just randomly shuts down while using it.
@@wt9653 well when you add joeflation it works out price wise with the type of quality you get from Milwaukee
Great video. Very interesting and helpful.
Lit thank you
Nice write up
I just got the Ego 2156 with the 10ah battery and have been pleased so far. Being peak growing season my grass is as lush as it will be all season and have never had the mower choke out. I occasionally see a Mohawk stripe, not sure why. Also saw it with my gas mower so maybe something with rotary mowers. Still using the mulch blade so I might try the lift blade and see how that does. I bag a lot and love that the Ego throws the grass to the back of the bag. My gas mower would always clog at the front of the bag which I had to empty with only half a bag of grass.
You won't be disappointed with the EGO high lift blade. It is well designed and I don't use EGO without it. 👍
Definitely if you are bagging the high lift blade is a must 👍🏼
In all fairness, I believe that for instance 2 1/2 inch grass cut was pretty wet grass. I think if the grass was drier, they all have done a great job. Another great video.
There's a turbo on the Greenworks that you should be using on tough patches of grass. The first mow of the season I had to do in two batches because I had on turbo the whole time.
Didn’t use turbo and didn’t use the high lift mode on the Milwaukee to be fair to see what the mowers would do in the testing
You know, my gas 6.5 h.p. twenty year old super recycler, unfortunately, would cut that often with surge growth after fertilizer and rain. My new one can’t. It has half the h.p.
The Milwaukee looks good along with the EGO.
Great video! Howard.
Hey now
I welded a set of "wings" to my Milwaukee blade and achieved a much better cut quality. EGO's double blade (that is a full inch shorter than Milwaukee) defiantly gave it the advantage.
nice. hope you got the balancing right.
@@makingstuff242 When I put it on the round pyramid floating balancer thingy, I got it pretty close. And I don't get any weird vibrations even when I'm running the motor at the higher rpms. I'm not sure what the extra load is going to do to the life of the motor? 🤔 Or how the extra vortex is going to interfere with the cooling fan behind the blade? So while the blade may not be heavier on the left or right, I don't know what other things might now be out of "balance."
@@robertthompson3447 you're aware you can buy a high lift blade for the milwaukee right?
@@CA34562 I looked at the one they called the high lift blade, and I was rather disappointed with its design. Another commenter said he actually bought it and was disappointed.
Nice demo 👍👍👍👍
Thanks Thomas
A great review, very helpful.
A little bit of fun, of course, but at the end of the day we can all learn something. Thank you very much for your comments. Have a great day Tommy
There is no set standard to determine exactly what the blade height will be for each adjustment setting on every model. Variations such as the wheel size, blade size, engine crankshaft design and adjustment components must be considered when determining the cutting height settings. Although I am of the opinion that the Ego mower is the better of the three, I am not sure the Greenworks got a fair shake. It's cut swaths were visibly yellower which is indicative of a lower cut, which might explain why many of the commenters reported a different experience.
Really would like a tall grass side discharge comparison. This week in NY the grass grew like crazy from cool Temps and rain. My ego just does not work well with its rear discharge chute. Clogs every 10 ft. Doesn't shut off by clogs up and it's a mess of grass and missed clippings. The toro timemaster with an actual side discharge handles it no problem. If the engineers would have opened the rear discharge chute wider and aimed it to the left to avoid the sudden change in direction the grass encounters coming out going to the right, it'd be a pretty damn near perfect mower.
Never been happy with my EGO side discharge. It is a cute design for small loads. I used my Milwaukee side discharge for the first time today and was very pleased with it. I have modified my blade for better vortex, but only as much at the EGO's high lift blade would provide. I like that the Milwaukee side discharge doesn't try to redirect the cuttings. It just shields the user from the flow of the cuttings.
After trying side discharge on ego, I gave up. Too much clumping.
Couldn't agree more. I've been looking at timemasters because of this issue. We can't always mow when the grass is perfectly dry or do maintenance cuts.
Cool. Kindly add toro cordless also :)
Nice review Tech! Thanks for doing the normal height mulch test. That Milwaukee is a beast! And the ability to use those 18v batteries in all the other Milwaukee 18v tools is nicer than those huge EGO or Greenworks Pro batteries. But at $1100, IMO it's way over priced. But a lot of people are buying them. I bought the 36v Makita with the same battery advantage as the Milwaukee. And at a savings of $471, I'm happier with the cash parked in my pocket than the most powerful battery mower bragging rights parked in my garden shed. At over 100 lbs, the Makita leaves a very level cut. Thanks Tech!!
The Milwaukee batteries are $240 EACH Plus the $80 quick charger is $560 in batteries and charger alone on it
Great videos, but you gotta tell us what blade you're using and what blade speed, like M18 has a boost setting.
Milwaukee makes a high-lift mulch blade if mulching is your thing. That would be a better comparison because the Ego comes with a dual blade setup that is designed for mulching.
So does GW
@@connordevries3397 Yeah but as the video clearly demonstrates, the GW mower is vastly underpowered compared to the Milwaukee.
Very well done video.
Thank you
It's funny my 2021 Gas super recycler bogs down in heavier grass and my older Ego 2101 just keeps running. I think the metal deck and kickers on the Toro actually impede it when mulching a higher thick Fescue grass. it gets really clogged up. While the fine grass tends to not stick to the Ego plastic deck. I also did a two blade conversion to my old Ego and it cuts great with the green dual ego high lift kit.
The newer Ryobi needs to on this!
I know it’s not one reviewers like to review but would still like to the the 80v atlas in a test.
Just bought the Ego XP 7.5 Amp its on sale at Lowe's for $600 something normally $899
Great review! Please do a comparison between Toro Super Recycler and Ego XP if possible.
pro reel mowers,
thanks
I wish you took more of an analytical mode for this video. Still undecided!
I went with the ego after watching many videos comparing these 3 exact mowers. I really wanted the get the greenworks as I love my power washer, but the problems with the battery and customer service turned me off. The opposite was true of the ego, battery issues got replaced quickly. The milwaukee was just too expensive for what it was.
However, I found that setting level 5 seems to be the sweetspot for my yard (no idea what type of grass, I'm not that into yard work/knowledge)
I wanna grab me the ego as well. I noticed they have a steal deck model for 100 Bux more but I think plastic is good because it's lighter. What do you reckon?
I love the polycarbonate deck
@@TechMadeEzy do you prefer the new aluminum deck now?
@JPfreedom weather starting to change, but we haven’t had a chance to cut the grass yet because it’s not growing but hopefully will learn more once we’re able to cut the grass a couple of times and get a feel for it
Thanks for the review, not sure if you compare the prices, but I just got the GreenWorks Pro from Costco.
since I'm not planning to cut the grass in the amazon jungle, it performs amazing of my needs. Not to mention the $$$ difference!
Costco has great deals
With you the best! Enjoy
Did you change the Ego blade from bagging to mulching between those tests? I bought my Ego mower because of your videos and I am very impressed so far!
No changing of blades Jamy 👍🏼
eGo has Duel Blades!!
you should also include the ryobi crosscut
Milwaukee mulch plug is too small for opening. Had issues with clumps. Added a rubber boot around the plug and now it mulches like a beast. Issue shouldn't have slipped through the cracks but atleast it was an easy fix
Ya know, I like this review so don't think I'm complaining. That said, no one really ever does reviews on stuff that happens in the real world. Like, maybe you're going on vacation or something and need to mow early and there's dew on the ground. Wet grass kills electric mowers. Or, how the battery does in 90-100 degree weather. Man the heat will suck a battery dry. And can actually damage them. I've had an ego for about 4 years and I've learned. Absolute no goes are wet grass or high heat. But I can't stop the high heat where I live.
Appreciate your comment
Didn't want to use the turbo button on the greenworks? I don't know if the other models had it but that's what you're suppose to use in high grass like this. I have the 25' dual blade greenworks, the turbo button really makes a difference.
I wonder how different the EGO would have been at bagging with the bag blade instead of the mulching blade?
Please do vibration test in your mower videos. No lawn is worth damaging your nerve. I mulch all the time and twice weekly so please include the Milwaukee high lift blade and also add in vibration test. Vibration test is also why I have high respect for project farm channel. His test helped me decice which string trimmer. By the time you trim your lawn and mow (which you should normally do together) I can’t feel my hands anymore.
