Mower prices have gone through the roof. My neighbor last month sold me his John Deere D-160 tractor with 100 hrs on the clock for $1700. After watching your presentation, I now know I got a deal. I'm sure that's not your mower of choice for that big yard unless you are a masacasis. I also have a Kobalt 80 volt lawnmower that I have used 125 times to mow my yard using two batteries one at a time. I now still use this mower for tight spaces. The problem with these new mowers is if something breaks, there are not many replacement parts.

Hey! Thanks for watching. I know you mentioned you don't have any other electric lawn tools - but do you have any power tools? Milwaukee, Makita and Ryobi all have battery series that can cross over from power tools to lawn tools. Run time will vary, but you can get the highest Ah batteries and those will last a while. With this one, I'd expect about 45 minutes or so. If you are bagging then you'll likely be able to extend run-time vs. mulching.

I hadn't really thought about that until you said that. You very well could be right about sequential charging. Both lights were blinking like they were in "active" charging status but it could just be one after the other.

Milwaukee has a pretty good battery platform technology called "redlink" that is supposed to be extremely efficient!

Didn't want to spend most my savings 😢 with the extra 8ah batteries, but in practice they are well worth it. I wanted either Honda commercial fuel or battery Milwaukee. Makita LXT has cut off and lag issues so ignored Makita until I was shown the new XGT. A lot of videos show it beating Ego select cut and Honda cost more plus fuel costs.

When you stand-stow the mower with the mulch plug in place, you can gently touch the mulch plug from inside the deck and the plug backs out with no effort. I may tape mine in place if I choose to mulch vice side-discharge (which I always did with the Toro).

I just gave away my 17 year old Honda self propelled mower , as well as my string trimmer and blower and got all battery powered. Just like not having to deal with gas and oil. My Honda still ran great and started on first pull if weather is warm enough.

@@shannonstarr2232 Can't go wrong with EGO. Top of the line experts in battery-powered lawn tools. Also love that they just have the 56V line. We did a long review of their multi-tool. You should check that out if you want to do hedge trimming, pole saw, snow throwing or edging.

I will take my ego select cut xp any day over the Milwaukee. Select cut double blade system gives a better cut and ego has the best battery technology in the industry it makes Milwaukee look like an antique . I would put the ego 12 ah battery against any other mower battery and the ego has better battery technology

It is a really good mower as well. Wish it had a metal deck though

Let’s be realistic: the mower itself is about $500, and comes with $500 worth of batteries. This is right in line with other mowers on the market…Ego mowers with no batteries are right around $500. So, no it’s not the most expensive mower on the market. It only comes as a package and makes it seem super expensive.

Why are other mowers on the market a full package with batteries and still cheaper than this one?

@@TheLawnReview The newest Ego is $100 cheaper. Everyone has stuff in the $8-850 range, and none have the power of the Milwaukee. Some have far inferior product in the $600 range that isn’t even worth comparing to. Top line mowers are all pretty much in the same ballpark. I mean, DeWalt has a package putting out a measly 3lb-ft priced at $850! 🤣 Yeah, the Milwaukee destroys it.

$1,200 worth of groceries for a month? How much do you eat? 😂

Have you used the Milwaukee?

Not even close to being worth the money. Ego has cornered the market on mowers for one simple reason. The one battery echo system!!! Having two batteries sit in your garage or tool shed all winter after spending $1100 is a complete waste and is just a setup for a bad day when they both are found dead and unusable when you need them. (like most cheap cordless drills) I use my Ego batteries all year long between my blower and my 2 stage snow blower then all season with all the other tools they power. To spend this kinda money on one tool is just a waste. I dont see this mower being around in 2 years.

The strength that MIlwaukee has is that you can take the same tools you use for your power tools in the garage and use them in the mower and their other tools. EGO doesn't have that breadth yet. But I have to admit - EGO makes some darn good lawn tools. The Milwaukee is better, but maybe not worth the price.
