- Ego has a new 52" battery mower- BUT Does it have enough power to tackle TALL WET THICK GRASS in a swamp? lets' see. It's the WORLDS only riding mower with a battery system compatible with all its power tools. so Lets see what it can handle.

It's almost 3am and I am watching someone mow their lawn 🤷♂️
5 for me 😂
Not alone in that
I repair these, yet I'm still drawn in at 4 am
@@jonserkspawn7776 do you have to be an electrician to repair these?
2:04am for me im looking for tools to buy for offgrid living
it's almost 3am you must be lonely
Great that you showed the mower in realistic conditions. This is what we need to see before we buy something and the fact that it could handle itself so well, speaks volumes. Thanks for sharing.
If by realistic conditions, you mean you go a whole month without mowing and mowing the swamp then yes that is realistic.
I bought Chinese knobby ATV tires for mine (42" version) due to lots of hills on my property. Thing is a beast now.
That was an impressive demo. The fact that you were even able to get into the swampy area and cut a fair chunk of it impressed me. Most ride on mowers would be stuck long before !
I purchased this mower and love it. I put the batteries in it and just drove it off the pallet. There is enough clearance to do so just raise the deck all the way up before you do!
Friend of mine bought this mower with the smaller 42" deck. His wife side-swiped a t-post and cut a 1" gash in the tire sidewall in the first week on one of the back tires.
First riding mower I've run into that had car-sized lug nuts and a 4-lug pattern rather than just riding on a shaft with bearings.
1000% beast 👌
Man...I'd love to try one of those out on the farm! I hear great things about the EGO!! Always can count on Stan to do some wheelies!! WOOOO!! Take care buddy..be safe! Josh
i just ordered ALTOZ 766 all train for the farm. they did demo was mowing corn stocks. really nice
These are the type of vids that inspire me to keep going with my CZcams videos my man 🙌🏼 glad we have this amazing channel 🥶
It's has been some time. Your CLIPS are almost and informational. Thanks again Stanley
Happy Father’s Day 🙌🏼 glad you have a good one and keep making those amazing videos you got for us ! You inspire me to keep going with my CZcams channel
Great video, Stan! Those EGOs are just amazing and so powerful. I actually have an EGO mower as well.
Right on man, I love em!!
Delivered a nice even cut, has the super tight turning ability czcams.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend I was looking for, and is just a blast to drive. It takes a little bit to get used to driving one after driving a normal tractor style, but once you've got it, you've got it. If you're cutting lines, you have to be careful spinning the mower around or the back tire will dig a bare spot. Just take it nice and slow during the turn and then it's back to full throttle across the yard!
I came for the wheelies... and stayed to see and hear your honest review of the ego. Well done!
Thanks for sticking around 👍
Got mine today. Loved your video! Well done!
Awesome video, appreciate you showing the reality of assembly, waiting for my old trusty Kubota to croak before I get this, as all my other yard tools are all Ego, I have 2.5, 5, and 10Ah batteries. Their fixed carbon fiber shaft string trimmer easily also works as an
edger, so much power. Tesla early adopter here, Ego is the Tesla of yardwork, shows how well engineered new tech is a winner all around.
Props on the wheelie on the mower.
Stan, pretty awesome mower. Thanks for sharing👍👍👍👍👍😺🤗🐺
Anytime mate 😁 I love it too
Great looking machine once again you gave it a severe test. Thanks it looks like this will be great for residential home owners to use.
This would be awesome for that. I think it passed the test
I'm impressed with the mower and I think I'm got to get me one of those string trimmers.
It looked like you were having fun on the mower.
Thanks for giving your opinion on the string trimmer.
Another great video and keep them coming.
Absolutely loved this video, you keep it real ! You give it the true test, God bless ya !
I'm very impressed with the EGO 52 inch mower. Mowing the extra tall and thick grass and popping wheelies probably had anyone from EGO who watched this video, cringing. Mowing after a rain storm was a tough stress test. EGO must have some good engineers who developed this machine.
My wife has a 3 year old EGO trimmer and it's done nothing but work flawlessly. I wish it had their new line IQ head.
You, in no way, babied the EGO mower and that's what make your testing videos so enjoyable.
Great video!!! As a lawn mowing business owner/operator, I would like to go electric with a zero turn….but the price of a mower that can do the job is a no go. The EGO 52” seems great for a homeowner with one lawn per week to cut, not for a business. The Toro revolution Z master looks like it has the run time for daily mowing, but at north of $35k, it will never pay itself off compared to the $ 8,000 zero turns that I make a living off of. If I was a young man with 25 years of mowing in front of me, I’d consider the E mower at 30 k….maybe. But at 65 I’ll never recoup the investment.
However….I do use the EGO spin trimmer everyday. The Ego mower is on my trailer for any 21” push mowing. The blower is a carry on my zero turn saving a trip to the truck for a quick blow off as needed. I also ride a Specialized E-MTB. So my heart is into the battery stuff, but only if it is profitable. If EGO wants to send me a 52” zero….I’ll be happy to test it in my world and tell the world!!
i have to say.... as an enthusiast of epic storms. the footage at the beginning was awesome. and, im glad it gave you a great excuse to do a wet-stress-test of that awesome looking mower. now, that makes me think of something similar but for exploration, like a mobile chair, but to the extreme, and with the same or similar configuration as the mower, but in a 4x4 style.
That would be fricken sweet 👊
look up track wheelchair on here
Stanley, you almost nailed it right on the head when you mounted up (installed) the seat. The electrical connection is for a "dead man" switch which on gas machines shuts the motor off near instantly. On that one it will shut all the motors off. I know that as I used too work at a Sears in Kentwood, MI. I was in charge of setting up riding mowers, zero turn and garden tractors. The cheapest setup for the Dead Man Switch would be blade style contacts which disable the motor. Rear engine riders would use a momentary push switch (hold down for it too work) and then on the middle too biggest machines and zero turn mowers the dead man is in the seat itself. It twist locks with a quarter too half turn on a built in mount on the seat which disables the ignition and stalls the engine. On that one it will stop the motors from running. Make sure no reset is needed in case it is triggered.
Just noticed flashing backup lights, Cool safety feature!
Great review. I have the push mower...cut is not as good as gas mower, but love the ease and convenience. Also, have the trimmer edger combo. Very easy to use, quick switching attachment
Outstanding job!
That was a sweet wheelie. I want one of these things! I love that it can also be used as a go kart or scooting around a neighborhood.
Thanks man! Good to see real life review. Gotta say pretty impressed with the Ego tools, but please review again after a couple years or more.......
you got two! nice!
dig the flashing reversing lights!
Thanks brother. I needed to see this review. I subscribed for sure. you are the man
Hey man great info
I myself just looked at over 50 zero turns and really wanted the zero emission zero turn like this one. But unfortunately I have to big of properties to cut so I ended up with a 2022 kubota 21 hp zero turn. I wanted the most fuel efficient one I could find and this kubota I purchased is but online they say it’s absolutely horrible on gas. I can’t believe it because it cost me 13.00 to use my push mower and my zero turn on roughly 6 acres of really damp grass. This video really helps people decide on a big purchase which is awesome keep it up.
Another great video Stan! I have the 42" Ego Z6 and I'm loving it. I bought it after getting the 2 stage snow blower this winter and wanting more batteries. LOL I also have their edger, 765 CFM leaf blower, and just received the the Line IQ trimmerfor father's day. I'm loving them all. Keep up the great videos, it's fun watching your adventures!!!
That snowblower is fantastic, handles northeastern NY snow with ease
Best presentation. Best review video ever. Love the products 💪🏾💪🏾💯💯💯
I wanted to try an Electric mowing brand and found Ego having a little sale in Lowe’s and I got a weed eater and a leaf blower.
I actually wanted a weed eater as the ones I have were starting to give out after a lot of years of tough work.
I didn’t think it was gonna be good but I just wanted something for the house that was gonna be easy for my family to use without having to prime it and do all the steps to turn the god darn thing on lol.
To say I was impressed was an understatement. It was so light weight and quiet I didn’t use earplugs for the first time and it was kinda a relief!!
So happy with it and now I’m going to look forward to replacing all my gas powered equipment that has done it’s fair share with new and modern electric power!!
No the electric weed eater didn’t have nearly the same power output as my gas one but it served its job for regular every day lawn maintenance.
Great Video Stan !!! Look forward to seeing some landscaping videos !!!! Keep the videos coming, thank you
More to come!
It looked like it cut pretty good. I will still use my walk behind until I can't walk anymore. I did like the trimmer, but those are out of my budget. I like my corded Black n Decker...I think it is the same one your wife uses...lightweight. Have a wonderful weekend and Happy Father's Day. ☺🙏
This thing cuts amazing especially for a battery powered machine. & thank you! I hope you have an awesome weekend yourself 😊👊
Thank you for this real life scenario testing.. Thumbs up!
Nice. Once my gas powered riding mower dies this could be in my future. I already have their trimmer, chainsaw , blower and stand behind ego mower. Good devices.
Might have to save up for one of these. Awesome test/review.
Thanks for the straightforward review. I do not have the property for the Z-Turn unless EGO makes something smaller like 30" size; however, sold my carbon fiber and Multi Head trimmer attachment and loving the Line IQ. No more alien crop circles on my lawn !
Heck yeah man that's awesome 👊
My dad has the string trimmer, leaf blower and push mower and loves them. I’ve used them all several times and they are awesome!
Cool beans that's what I like to hear! These are some game changers for battery powered equipment
I'm going into my 2nd season with the 42" Z6 and just love this thing. Noticed that you missed Travel mode which goes even faster. Sport mode and hold down the speed up button for a few seconds. I LOVE seeing you beat on this as I would not so much with a $5K mower. That said, my 15 year old does the lawn and drives it like she stole it. I also have a Fold-It garden cart that I put on the hitch to move stuff around. Bought the leaf collection system and doing leaves is actually fun for the first time ever. Anybody that comes to the house seems to love it and asks all about it. Overall just a fun toy that also does a bunch of stuff around the 1 acre property. I thing maybe you could test is how to CLEAN it. I'm afraid to power wash it since it's all electric. Take care, love this and your other reviews. Take care.
He was too busy wanting to show off his jeep...ugh people
That thunder looks so careful gosh ! Be careful out there man ! We all need you lol but great video 🙌🏼
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and videos. Very interesting and entertaining. You need to ask them for a wireless remote Control like what you would use for an RC car. That way you can get off the mower and drive it out when you get it stuck. Many years ago I had a John Deere F525 mower, 3 wheels, front deck, hydrostatic. Was an amazing mower, cut thru many places that I had no business being in. Had some wet areas like you have and whenever I got stuck I developed a routine to get it out since it was basically a lead weight on wheels and I had nothing to pull it out with. I would get off, push down on the seat with one hand, and start it with the other. Then release the parking break and rock it out with one hand on the hydrostatic peddle and the other pushing down on the seat. Just removing the weight of the driver often was all it took to drive it out with very little effort. Wishing you and your family the best.
Haha that sounds like a pretty sweet system ya had there! Impressive
We've got both the 42" and 52" Z6. Twice so far this season, I've got our 52 stuck in "Spider Alley" (don't ask) which is mostly a swamp after a decent rain. Both times I simply tied a rope from the 52, and ran it to the 42" about 30ft away, and easily pulled it out both times. It's crazy how powerful these are with enough traction. Wonder if we could put some heavy treaded tires on these things... anyone know where I might find something like that? Great review as all ways Stan!
Do they use different size tires than other zero turns use? I was thinking about getting one of these, But I'm not sure how long the batteries will run the mower for with all 6 batteries? Stan didn't really talk about it. But it seemed like he mowed for maybe around a couple hours at least in between filming and it had 33% left. I'm guessing it would go for at least 3 hours but not sure.
Go kart
That's why you're seeing rear tracked designs just as is true on Farm Tractors going on forever now as standard. Great question! No need to wait on a proper towing vehicle now as well given both the Ford F150 Hybrid and now both Rivian R1T and Ford Lightning for commercial use. Plus Ford Hybrid Maverick might finally be hitting the dealer lots come September in volume. Really still in the first innings of the pure BEV revolution as still all about power output and not integrated charging infrastructure with solar as Tesla has been doing going on many Years now.
Hybrid technology hasn't even made an appearance in this market as of yet but yes, absolutely I think the Ford F150 Hybrid and Ford Maverick are going to change that *BIG TIME* hopefully as soon as next year.
I like those EGO'S a lot, so much power and ease of use.
The fact that he was able to lay it on this side and hold it there one handed had me sold. I’ll just have to be in possession of two zero turns. I have to get this one to compliment my other ego products. I’m doomed if they ever come out with a 60 inch zero turn.
yes that is huge. you cant do that with any gas equipment for multiple reasons, and this is no problem. I've flooded my push mower tilting it probably 45 degrees and it was so done.
@@frydemwingzrip
Maybe next would be a 52 inch with the steering wheel handle
Thanks DM. I never considered one of them till I saw this. Might have to look closer at them now. Gonna need a mower for my house before much longer
I'd totally recommend this one for an electric 👊
$7000 and change is a lot
@@jerk5828 hopefully the prices will come down as they become more mainstream
I like how far it throws the clippings with the side discharge chute folded up. That looks like a good way to prevent clumps.
Pretty neat! You're definitely right about that
Awesome review mate, I love ego stuff too
You make the best vids keep the good work up!
I have to say i was pleased with how the zero turn worked for ya and i think i am going to do some looking at these for my house yard so i dont have to use my compact tractor mower for it and its safe and simple for my wife and oldest kid to run
Awesome demo.
Love my ego zero turn. Bought it based on your videos.
That's cool to hear 😊 I love this thing like no other
Love the ego stuff. My trimmer/blower/hedge trimmers and batteries are on their 6th season still kicking like new. Traded out the gasser push mower for the ego mower after the memorial day sales. things a beast. Officially no more gas equipment except the generator, makes life easy
Awesome video, just found your channel randomly...you give one hell of a mow job...
😂
loved the video and you thinking of adding one of the mowers and trimmers to your lineup and we had tornado warning and heavy thunderstorms here in Virginia yesterday God bless you and your family stay safe ❤️
No tornado warnings here! Hope you stay safe too 🙏
I have an ego walk behind mower weed Wacker and blower. I have no complaints about any of the three. Great products. Just pop on the battery pull the trigger and away you go. No having to fight pull starting a fussy engine much quieter variable speed with the trigger giving great control. If I had the acreage I would absolutely consider the zero turn mower. Cool video
Great video!
Hey Stan. This week has been interesting to say the least. On Monday I found out that my boss (Hi Josh) watches your videos too. He put 2 and 2 together that I'm #1Farmer that comments. Apparently everyone at work watches you and has met you at a show at one point. To say I'm jealous is a bit of an understatement.
On Thursday I went to state for trap shooting and placed top ten for JV (I placed 9th). At work this week I got to mow with the big 4wd mowers that have to massive 10ft front mounted decks on them and they a fun to drive. I was also left by myself to do mowing this afternoon and I was able to get everything on the schedule knocked out!
Haha that's cool! You & the team seem like an awesome group. And nice job goin to state! My son is doing trap shooting this weekend too. Sounds like ya got a beast of a mower to play with there 😁 Hope we get a chance to meet up someday too 👊 & in the meantime..God Bless & go get em!
I'm loving this lawn equipment bashing!!
You're at the right place then 😉
Don’t you just love watching mower reviews at 12:44 at night
Nice one Stan. 👍👍🏴🏴
In the storage compartment, you'll find a pair of skinny slots to the outside. That's where you put the hole plugs when you install the bagging kit, which is sold as an add-on. There's a different set of blades that go with the bagger, to get enough airflow, so don't skip those! I work at a mower shop where we sell this brand
The mower handled pretty well! That trimmer is awesome! I got to order one. I run a Stihl FS 91R but that ego is sick!
You’ll be dissatisfied
Awesome video!
Damn you beat that thing and it took it. Ego should use some clips of this for commercials😂 I've never wanted a 10k lawn mower and more grass before but now I do!! Subscribed without hesitation
I'll keep my toro that I can mow faster without skipping or double mowing to get the height i want....and don't need an engineering degree and the patience of a nun to repair it if need be. It's nice that tech has advanced but it's not where it needs to be for me to even consider it. My commercial toro would of been a one pass cut with an edge pass to mulch the long stuff. Not to mention that I don't think this could handle, efficiently, row Mowing like most people do with a zero turn. You can hear and see if underperforming blowing grass away from the middle by circle path cutting....I think it would be a struggle row pattern cutting.
Love these videos. Who would of thought being over 40 would be so fun 😂
Remind me to never buy a used riding mower from you.
Im.highly impressed. I might actually consider getting one.
Have the original weed eater and it's the best I've ever had. The auto feed one button winding is definitely a plus. Also have the 42" Z6. The thing is a tank. Can't say enough about Ego. Original push mower in it's fifth year with original battery. Still strong 💪.
Wow truly a beast. Gotta love hardcore electrics
I've seen those EGO tools before and at first, I was VERY hesitant because the whole "new product before the company irons out all the kinks" thing. Now, if I gotta get a new mower, I might consider EGO given the performance of that zero turn and string trimmer.
I've got the ego trimmer and Pole saw love them both. Just can't afford the zero turn mower
Those are great too 👌
What an amazing looking property! Jealous!
Loved the video of this electric zero turn
Glad ya liked it! Thanks for bein here
@@Dirtmonkey Still waiting to see the interior design of your beautiful log home. Take care and God Bless you n your family
Another great video folks ❤️ 👍
Love the hard tests you do that’s how you test stuff out push it brother to the limit. Ego company probably loves it too. Awesome work. Do you think there’s any benefit getting the 52 inch over the 42 besides cutting widths? More power or anything? Thank you Stanley
I love my ego products. I beat the shite out of them, never clean then or maintain them, and 3 years later they still work like new. It's nice knowing that there's not going to be a hassle when I want to work.
I think the reversing lights were a bit over the top !! lol
I got a Ego 650CFM blower and would love to buy their whole lineup this video refills my hope that it can take normal use
Crazy... Sure solves the ethanol issues. Thanx !
You crack me up the way you go about your business in this video, I do the same type of things you do. Ride wheelies, do donuts, flip up machine by yourself, kick the brake down. LOL
great video
Good video as always , and I really like that mower , I could see my self mowing with that every weekend and I also like ego weed eaters there the best I ran them a lot and u can cut anything down with them , I actually think there more powerful then gas models and I’m talking the pro line for shtil not the home owner ones , ego has em all beat 👍🏻
Line IQ will be my next trimmer
Good call
Very impressed with the mower .wish i had the property that would call for that one day i hope and i will definitely get one of them
I believe in you 👍
One word- WOW !!!!😮
Thank you!!!
I’m not sure about the ego mower but that ego go cart was bad ass! Haha
Great video! You should be a salesman, for EGO!
I wasn't sure on the mower until you mowed the mud part then had enough battery power to mess around with it that'd my kind of machine I'm actually going to get one
Our Hustler Raptor SD would never have cut that good. The shoot plugs with any wet grass and we have to mow with the deck all the way up and work our way down with 2-4 cuts. Even with new blades.
Best advice I can give you take off the grass shoot and cut the piece that goes across the opening on the bottom... I also cut a piece that I just self tapered on top of deck to make it where the blade can't hit trees or anything deck has only ever clogged on me once since! It was horrible before u literally was about to pour a line of gas to the open gas tank one day!
We had similar issues. Found out the best way to mow (if you have the time) is to mow with the shield up, blow your cuttings into the uncut grass, turn around and cut the opposite direction whatever is left. Then repeat. Yes your mowing 2x but it looks good and if you have a good spot to blow the grass to on the final cutting it’s even better.
Daumm Stanley the Willie poppin panty droppin riding electric lawn mower and you always give great reviews you guys go the distance 💯💪🏾💪🏾♥️🤟🏽🤟🏽
😂😂👍
@@Dirtmonkey 😂🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Nice review and props to EGO for sending that mower to you to get abused.
I see your little fox enclosure there - would love to see an update video on how they're doing!
As much as i hate to say it, that mower actually did a pretty good job... Take off the street and lawn tires and add some mild quad tires and see how she does..
Those 1st cuts of the year at over a foot high aint no joke.. Ive choked the blades on diesel Toros in that kinda stuff..
1st cuts on my properties usually get a 2nd cut after a few hour dry time..
Im digging the trimmer line technology.. pretty slick stuff..
Come on man.. you only get one set of peepers.. the safety squint can change your life completely.. Keep up the great work there brother...
You said it! This thing is a monster. I'm stoked about it 😁
Love your work mate. Unfortunately everything takes longer to be released here in Australia. The 42” only launched here 2 weeks ago. It’s too small for my needs but the 52” is starting to arouse my interest!
Hope ya get more options soon brother!
do you think we'll get the 52" ?
@@greenplanetmowing4626 I'm sure it'll arrive eventually.
I’m definitely impressed with the electric mowers in last couple years.
