- In this video, I take a look at the pros & cons of the EGO Power+ 56v Lawn Tools 'ecosystem', covering the Mower, the String Trimmer and the 530 CFM Blower.
I think you might be better off buying these from Home Depot if you have one near you, but here are some Amazon links if you want to check out the specs:

EGO String Trimmer with auto loader: amzn.to/3eeiR5l
EGO Select-Cut 21” Mower: amzn.to/3fsIFea

Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower
I've been with EGO since 2015. Perfection. Not touching anything else. Still on original 4Ah batteries. 9 tools total.
Sincerely THE BEST video on these tools I’ve seen to date. Thank you.
Very good informative video I never thought the day would come when battery operated lawn equipment would be half way decent well it’s here take it from a retired landscape maintenance owner I bought the mower and it is a beast we sold our large grass area home and left the new owners the mower buying a house in Texas and will purchase the whole line of the EGO products thanks again and keep up the good work
Thanks for your honesty. I also have all the same equipment except I bought the select cut model. You are spot on the review. Thanks again.
Really appreciate your experience behind this review. It helped me take the leap, given that the big box hardware stores are fully on board with electric in 2021. Got the trimmer and blower because, despite being a Stihl fanboy, I'm tired of rising fuel costs, yanking to start, and winter storage prep. Thank you, I appreciate it. 💯💯💯
To be honest, I really only got an EGO leafblower after seeing reviews from car detailers They use them to blow the water off of freshly washed cars and that is my intention. I might even blow some leaves in the fall.🙂
Great video!! Very informative and straight to the point. I just purchased a EGO leaf blower yesterday and I'm "blown away!!" I have never heard of EGO before and now I'm looking to buy the whole line up!
I got chainsaw a month ago when we had tree fall down...it’s freaking amazing! I’ve used enough gas powered 2 stroke BS tools over the years...I’m sick and tired of pain of starting them, upkeep, etc! Love it and I’m pumped to use mower, and getting a trimmer and I’m putting brush blade on it to take on thorny jungle🤙
All of my lawn equipment is reaching end of life. Sounds like a good time to convert over to a battery powered system. Thanks for the concise review. One additional thing that people have said about the new Ego mower is the battery is rear facing so you can see the power indicator as you walk behind the mower. Though, the price point on it now in November 2020 is $649. Waiting on a sale before I buy in.
Thank you for taking the time to make and post the video. Good info... just what I needed to see.
The carbon fiber version came with 5.0ah battery instead of the 2.5ah. The auto feed of the trimmer string is a massive improvement over any other type of loading system. I only needed to buy this trimmer because my brother "borrowed" mine. He did me a big favor by not returning it. The ease of loading trimmer line is well worth the $250.00. I was paying $60.00 to get my grass cut. The trimmer paid for itself quickly as did the mower, blower, hedge trimmer. Drinking the Kool-aid has a one season payback time. The EGO equipment is not cheap however it is well worth it. I purchased all of the generation I products when they first came out. THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO! : )
Just bought that exact mower this morning and it went through my weeds and grass like butter. Just one time did it boggle because it was filled with grass and weeds. New subscriber here.
ARE YOU SERIOUS, EGO?!?! Just for kicks today, I put one of my smaller 2.5Ah batteries in the mower to see if it'd be enough to mow my small backyard (takes ~15mins) since the usual mower battery is a monstrous 7.5Ah. Well, I finished the backyard and the battery was still going strong. So I put that battery in my trimmer and finished trimming AND edging the sidewalks on my corner lot...including my fence lines...and the battery still hadn't died. I can't believe it lasted through all of that. 15 mins of mowing + 15 mins of trimming. Crazy good.... Granted, the grass was completely dry and just high enough to need mowing, but still...this 56V system is fantastic.
Got this same setup.. it’s awesome.. amazing how much easier yard work is with electric tools.
I jumped into the EGO tools a couple years ago. Started with the mower because I wanted to get away from gas. I have a townhouse so the yard (20' wide x 30' deep) isn't huge, but having a mower to cut it is nice. Plus I wanted better storage. A gas mower takes up floor space. With the EGO mower, I ditched having to deal with gas and oil, could stand it up on end against the wall so no spills of fluids, and the added bonus it is much quieter. So quiet in fact that I ignore my HOA rules about mowing before 9AM. My neighbors really can't hear it inside. The gut is pretty good, not as good as my old gas mower. I have a stray blade here and there, but it doesn't bother me. I make more passes since this is a 21" deck and my old one was 24", but it adds, maybe a couple passes. The battery last me ~3/4 of a mowing season in the Mid-Atlantic area.
Excellent review! I am tired of the gas trimmer problems and the noise they produce. I am getting the trimmer and blower right away.
First Thanks for the Video! I agree with everything you said. If your on the fence about EGO, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I live in SW Florida and have been using EGO since February 2020. I cut and maintain about 1/2- 3/4 acre of my property with about 125 Areca Palms 190 ft driveway and an array of other Palms and landscape. I use my outdoor tools every week 12 months a year (8 months so far with EGO).
Thank you for your honest review! Am beyond pleased with the EGO tools I have been using for over three years and counting which include the 21" lawn mower, snow blower (being we live in Canada ehh), line trimmer (with self winding which is well worth it) and the the same leaf blower you demoed). All the benefits you touted are bang on and the biggest one most people are neglecting to mention, the environmental factor! NO CO2 emissions and the fact that the batteries are quick charge (in my case) which means you are not using any time at all charge them up. Thanks again for your review!
I've enjoyed my ego products. I use the mower, blower and trimmer and they all work great. I just like the minimal upkeep
