great review. Here In California they are legislating gas mowers into the trash bin, in a couple years all mowers/edgers will have to be electric and this looks like a winner. BUT with the extreme drought we are in most people will probably be getting rid of their front lawns soon.
I bought a WORX mower this year I’ve got their weed eater’s and blower’s they’re great products I’ve been using for over 12 year’s now and I love the ease of the battery lawnmower their so much quieter and lighter to push a plus is once your done mowing you take the battery pack out Pop it in the weed eater or blower and finish everything!!!
I like that you can flip up the deck like that! It should make cleaning out the mower way easier, which will really extend the life of the steel deck. I know a lot of Honda mowers die because the decks rust out way before the engine dies. Cool product!
Funny how the Missus always and automatically goes into 'supervisor' mode. Mine does the exact same thing, even when I didn't ask her! LOL. GREAT JOB, S.C.!
Would like to see how this works on thicker turf, say the 7th or 8th mow of the season. I don't use a striping kit, so I prefer the strong suction of a gas unit to lift and stripe the turf, but this electric model looks better than the rest so far. Thanks for the great review as always brother.
Yes a thicker higher turf is a best real review for new buyers to see if it's worth it & won't cut off I see many battery lawn mowers are doing especially cutting at its lowest setting in high turfs!
I’m on my second mowing seasons with my battery power “Hart” push mower 40V and does cut thick and tall grass so well !!! I played with it tried to see if get stuck or miss cutting but nope just power on through better than gas power push mower I had used for over 30 years!!!
I’ve used my Kobalt 80v for 4 seasons now. No issues / no maintenance other than basic cleaning. Works great! I got the 80v snow plow too so two batteries haha
For anyone who already has Worx power tools, this mower ticks all the boxes. I really like that it uses 20v batteries instead of a huge proprietary 80 volt one that would probably not work with other Worx tools.
Just picked this up open box from Worx on eBay as I have had the same underpowered issue with the 40v non-nitro version of Worx mower. The Nitro line of outdoor power tools from Worx is awesome. My backyard is completely empty overgrown from all the rain we’ve had here in California. I managed to do the front but I had to weed whack it down with the Worx 40v weed whacker which worked surprisingly well never bogged down.
I purchased an 80v lithium battery mower 4 years ago for just over $500 and love it. One full battery charge can mow 4,000 sq ft in self-propelled mode which is plenty fast. No pulling a starter rope. No more gas cans. No changing the spark plug. No oil changes. A gas mower has more oopmh for really thick tall grass, but the advantages of battery power outweigh that for the few times you need highest HP. One thing to check is to ensure the mower deck can cut the height you want. For example, southern lawns usually need a higher setting in hottest months compared to northern lawns.
Ive recently started back mowing my yard forgot how great exercise it was. My next mower not sure when will be electric. This review was great this mower is the most impressive ive seen. The problem is every manufacturer battery is different. Once you start buying a brand you about stuck.
I'm trying to convince my mom to go electric - especially since she has to have one of us come over to pull start her push mower now. She already has a WORX weed eater/edger and likes it the ease of use. This would be perfect for her to be able to continue doing some yard work. How does the self-propel drive affect the battery life? Would you say the mower is overall lighter in weight than a traditional gas engine mower? Thanks!
I bought a battery powered mower but new batteries are too expensive. Gonna get a plug in type and only use the other one in areas I can`t reach with my extension cord. I wish they made one a large lithium iron phosphate battery could fit in.
This Works mower weighs in around 53 lbs. For comparison, my old self-propelled Honda gas mower was around 75 lbs. Currently I have Toro’s 60v Super Recycler mower, which is about 90 lbs.

@@rik8809 Thanks - Yeah. she's 79 and still does as much as she can.

I bought a Black & Decker electric mower and it did not last 2 seasons. Unfortunately this is the future whether we like it or not. Biden does not cut is own grass so he is all about electric. The tech is improving with batteries. Just not on the level of gas yet if you are being honest. Another issue is in humid climates (ex. outdoor shed) electrical circuits can deteriorate.
Have to admit I really like the fact you can stand the mower on its end to get at the blade do that with a gas mower you will get oil in your air filter.
I'd love to see a review of a base model Hart mower. They're much more affordable than expected, and my older 40v one has been a beast. Really great budget mower
I work evenings, so when I need to mow my only options are to give up part of my weekend, or wake up early during the week and mow before work during the hottest part of the day. I've been interested in an electric mower because that could open the door for me to mow at night if the mower is quiet enough. And since that would allow more flexibility for when I can mow I would actually be able to mow more often, meaning my yard wouldn't reach jungle status like it does now 😅
As others have pointed out, it does seem this is the best designed electric mower I’ve seen so far. IMHO, waaaaay nicer looking than the stratospherically priced Milwaukee. For most the price is just too extreme for what you’re getting. While battery powered electric yard equipment may be the future, along with battery vehicles, we as a society are just trading one environmental wrecker for another. Another thought, it’s interesting how each manufacturer tries to get you committed to their respective brands with their proprietary batteries.
IMHO, ''' waaaaay nicer looking........''' DOES NOT EQUATE WITH MOWING GRASS, which is the W H O L E point !. You younger generation, only concerned with 'looks'.......give your logic a shake, if you have any !!! Looks, will 'pass away''........just like i and you will.....but, FUNCTIONALITY, IS OF PRIME CONCERN !! looks...looks......keep on looking........
No yearly air filer, oil change, plug. No emissions. Much much much Longer life. What goes unmentioned is how much more effecient an electric motor is compared to gas 2x really easily . You are using less and using it more effectively. Batteries are not without waste and by no means a perfect solution as you very correctly pointed out. Think of it instead as the far lesser of two evils. Hope this offers a different perspective.
Quick question. Didn't see that there was anything regarding this. Let's say the electronics of one of the batteries fails. Will the unit still run or do you need four batteries to make it operate
My concern are the batteries. From reading reviews of other battery powered lawn mowers, a lot of people are complaining about the battery. It loses battery life when you over charge them. It’s hard to watch the charging of batteries like a hawk and make sure they are removed from charging as soon as they are charged. Do these batteries have any option to not allow them from being overcharged?
I have a 20v 2amp Worx batteries and a trimmer and blower from 2015. Though the single charger it came with doesn't quite charge them up like the twin, quick charger from our mower or snow blower. We also have the Landroid robot mower. It uses a 20v 4amp and mows for an hour twice daily, for the perfect lawn mowed look everyday.
I really like this mower design . Hopefully ryobi or Dewalt will incorporate a higher voltage method like this. They both have a good line up of low voltage tools for the lawn and home. I’m also interested to see what elder worx comes out with.
Can you do a comparison on electric tree branch shedders? Battery is 1 thing but how many DIY guys can diagnose a repair on this mower let alone buy replacement batteries?
I have three electric mowers now. The Greenworks push mower is OK. The Ego push mower is better, had moe adjustability. Finally I have a Cub Cadet lawn tractor and it is amazing how much grass I can mow on one charge, and can even do OK with some overgrown pasture. Electric is the future and getting better every year. Thanks for your excellent review videos!
I bought the new Milwaukee battery mower and I love it. I'm sure the Worx is good too. I wish these tool companies would switch over to Lithium Ion Phosphate. I wonder what's holding them back?
@@SilverCymbal This is exactly what I'm waiting for. I have the TimeMaster (circa 2017). If Toro or Ego make a 30" equivalent to the TimeMaster I'm going all in.
The build quality looks terrific. I have a Honda gas mower and its been great, this mower really interests me.Expensive , looks a lot better than some Greenworks 80Volt units. Maybe it will go on sale sometime soon.
I had my Ego one season and I had to damn near give it away. It’s okay if you have about a 3000 square foot yard. Anything bigger then that I wouldn’t bother.
If you are taking requests I’d like to see you test out the Ego push mower. I jumped at their excellent line trimmer and blower and am considering replacing my 96 craftsman gas mower soon.
I absolutely love the 56v select cut xp 21inch from EGO. I used it on some tall grass and also mulch leaves from two live oaks. It worked just as well as my toro gas mower did.
Looks like a cool mower. I used to use a Honda 21" and it was great for a rental house that we were in. We just moved up to a larger house and it was taking me 2 hours to mow the lawn so I bought a 42" Scag Liberty Z. WOW! The Scag is well worth the money in my opinion and it makes mowing quick and fun, plus it looks super cool. I was really debating about buying the Ego Z6 zero turn, but It's only been out for about 2 years and that's just too new for me to drop that kind of cash (~$5500). Much easier to go with the tried and true Kawasaki, Briggs or Kohler engines and with the hydrogear ZT2800 drivetrains.
Remember when Tyler Tube did this a few years ago? Anyway my one concern is long term use as batteries get more work down than a gas engine, so replacement batteries are a concern.
So you use the side discharge when mulching? Also, an awesome improvement would be to take that whole battery module & plug it in the wall for charging. We keep our batteries for our mower, etc indoors because we are in hot and humid Houston. We love our Ego battery operated mower but it doesn’t get up as many leaves as we would like, as usual, I always love your reviews!
Looks great. I'm wondering if it's a good idea to use the battery in other 20V tools, the 4x 20V batteries may need to be balanced in the mower. I like the mower can be charged directly from AC, I may choose it over Greenworks because of it.
That's my question. I've already bought into the Worx ecosystem with my trimmer, I wonder if the batteries are interchangeable. According to the amazon listing they're "compatible," but yeah, what happens if one has less charge than the other?
Been running Toro 60V 22" Max recycler mower since the start of last year. Never going back to gas. Has similar features that this Worx does while different in other areas, but it does just fine for me. I highly recommend anyone looking to replace a gas mower or just buying their first to seriously consider the battery options out there, whether it's this Worx or something else.
That's interesting that you feel that way. The question is, how will you feel in 5 years when you have a 5 year old mower that needs $200 in new batteries? Will you buy a new $400-600 mower which comes with new batteries and a charger, or will you just buy the $200 worth of batteries for your old mower? Or will you wish you had just bought a gas mower which would have lasted you 10 years?
@@roberttreasure1986 $200 worth of batteries sounds a lot cheaper than all of the gas I spent using it for those 5 years. And the gas I save by using the same batteries for the snow blower, and the trimmer, and the blower. That's a lot of gas all told that has been replaced with cleaner energy. No more exhausted gas into the atmosphere negatively contributing to the environment or my lungs. $40/yr in batteries? Sounds like a huge win-win.
@@rawwwrrr4024 I am willing to bet that the electricity you use to generate your batteries is generated mostly by burning coal, some by wind, nucluear and hydro-electric plants. So for you and most Americans, clean energy is a myth. You are just transferring the pollution to the area where the electric plant is situated.
A few questions: How much does this mower cost? How long is the cutting time, in general? How long do you think the batteries will last if the mower is used every week during the cutting seasons? (Years) And how much do new batteries cost? Good demo vid. But my purchasing an electric mower is based on cost, both in the short term and the long run. Thanks.👍
$699 for the mower with 4 2ah batteries. Lithium Batteries last about 5 years with normal use. The 6ah batteries shown here are $150 each, but the ones that come with it (2ah) are $50 each to replace. The mower in the video essentially cost $1400 with tax when you consider the battery upgrade to 4- 6ah batteries.
If you want cost efficient, buy a mid '80s toro for a few hundred. It will last 30 years with nearly zero expense except for about a half gallon of gas per hour run time.
@@allaboutroofing2 Thanks much. That's ALOT of money!! I think I'll keep my gas mower til it dies. But then, I maintain my own equipment very well and they last a long time. I could buy ALOT of gas and oil for $1,400 dollars, even at current prices. Cheers!!
@@justincase2281 if California is any indication, at some point we won't have a choice. CA has until jan 2024 until gas powered lawn equity is banned, even for commercial operations. Meanwhile I still use a 2 stroke...LOL noting like the smell of 2 cycle in the morning. 😁👍
@@allaboutroofing2 I just clicked on the link and for $699 the listing states it comes with four 5 amp hour batteries. Not sure where you got the 2 amp hour number from?
I have an older Worx that uses two 56v batteries. If I'm not wrong, that's even more power than this one. It's a very, very good mower with pretty much the same features you describe here. Unfortunately, they discontinued that line of batteries to favor the power-share 20v.
I have a Green Works 40v that works great for areas that I can't hit with my zero turn. Really looking for some actual reviews on the new Ryobi 80v line of push and zero turn mowers coming in the next couple of months (Late Spring/Summer 2022). I really can't say anything bad about the Green Works stuff though. I have the leaf blower, trimmer, chainsaw, pole saw, and push mower.
I recently gave battery charged mowers a good look, as I was in the market for a new mower. I decided I would regret buying one 5 years from now, when the batteries need to be replaced, in the case of your mower, around $400 for the batteries. And then you also would have a 5 year old mower. I bought a gas mower. But interestingly, the stores now have put the gas mowers in the back; the push is on to buy an electric mower. I bought a Murray, as I've had really good luck with them in the past, and they seemingly last forever. This time I bought one with a spigot built into the deck which you can hook a hose up to, run the engine, and clean off the grass without lifting the mower.
My cheap crappy kobalt mower packs that bag tighter than the 201cc Honda I grew up with. I'll see how it's going at the end of the season but so far I see no reason to run gas anymore.
Interesting video, thank you. You didn't mention if the mower control handle is adjustable on its own, but from this video the mower controls appear to rise higher with cutting height.
Thank you, no the handle control portion is fixed but the entire assembly can be in three spots. The good part is that since the handle is rounded as are the controls they still worked pretty well in all of the positions.
The Honda allows adjusting the amount of bagging vs mulching verses all or nothing. The question is how will it do bagging leaves. I have so many leaves in the fall that it bogs down a gas mower with a 160 cc Briggs.
My Honda (second hand HRX) is a beast like that. Bought it for $200...best mower I have ever owned. Had to mow this past weekend some thick way too tall grass and it was great being able to mulch and bag at the same time. Lawn looks amazing!
Thank you, I have tried a lot of different robots and a bunch never even made a video they were so bad but the Worx was the best all around unit. The cutting, operation, etc especially for the price. I haven't tried the high end husqvarnas which are suppoed to be good but I don't think you can beat the Worx landroid for around the $1XXX price.
Would like to see how it handles wet foot high grass , your front yard is almost like a bowling green :) it looks like a good unit though mate . I bought another electric mower brand a couple of years ago , as my old beat up petrol mower was poorly maintained and was having fuel system problems ( thats on me ) , initially i was not impressed with the electric mowers power in the rough stuff , where a petrol mower would just churn through almost anything , and even when bottomed out , the petrol mower would just scarify the land :) . But the electric unit i bought , its lighter weight and ease of handling , and no more having to fill it up with petrol/unleaded won me over , and when it runs flat i just put a spare battery in it and im good to go , and not too mention its quietness , in times when you wouldnt run your normal petrol mower due to annoying the neighbors , , the electric mower is very quiet . . And as for the less power on my unit , i found by just changing my mowing method , just taking a bit less of a cut in the heavy stuff and running over it a tad higher , even if i had to go over a second time as you may have to do anyway if your grass has gotten a bit out of hand . The last thing that really won me over to electric was not having to rip your shoulder out pull starting it as you would on the basic petrol mowers.
Good info. Would have been good to know the Ah of the 20 volts batteries and the motor power if available. The fact that it is 80 volts along doesnt mean is more powerful or long lasting as a 40 volts for example.
send it to me in about 3 weeks. I'm in SWFL. All the major mower companies come here to test their new equipment. When I say Here I mean right exactly where I live. they come out and test them on our counties school's fields. I'll pit that sucker against grass like you've never seen, St Augustine. i use a series 23 28 inch snapper rider with a 12.5 intek right now.
Thanks for the review! Looking at getting one of these as they are having a Memorial Day sale. Question...do you have to use it with self propelled? I'm tall and usually walk fast and the self propelled usually slows me down. If you can run without it, I'm assuming it would increase battery life as well?
From Leo: I am happy that people can have electric mowers if they want, but they are not yet superior. I bought a new gas mower in 2010 when I bought this house. I use less than 3 gallons a year. That is less than $15 a year even at today's fuel prices. My neighbor is proud of his top grade battery mower, purchased 2 years ago. It needs new batteries every year. They are over $100, and the disposal of old batteries is hazardous waste. Sounds like we are going the wrong way against the environment, and paying extra for it.
As with everything electric its about the cost but besides this I like the design , storing it brilliant , no oil change , gas fume , filters to change and spark plugs ! But my favorite thing it has a handle on the front deck my God why has it taken so long for that idea 🤷
Hello from Phoenix Arizona. First let me say I really enjoy your videos. Even though I don’t have a lot of grass out here ha ha. I am very impressed with the design of this thing. The one question I had is when you remove the battery pack can you use that as an external power source? For instance can I take it inside and plug my refrigerator into an a power outage? Thanks for the great video
Thank you very much. At the moment they only have this setup for DC/Worx specific stuff. They tell me a backpack blower is coming out that will be [powered off this pack. But they COULD come out with a power station similar to what Ego did here amzn.to/3yngQRb But will they? Not sure but it seems like Worx has come a long way in the past few years.
Had the 40v Worx push mower. Used it around house and worked well and was quite light. Sold it and got the 60v 22in Toro. I’d say better cut, easier on user and more powerful. Got a zero turn for the rest of the lawn, but these battery units are getting better and better.
Very happy with my 36v Makita, I do think the key to electric mowing is a regular cutting like twice a week though. I’d be interested to see how it copes after a 2 week vacation, as other commentators query the long grass as a well. I suspect it’ll just ramp up the blade speed and get a little less runtime in practice.
@@SilverCymbal same for me. Just had the blade off my dlm460 after a year, and barely needed any dressing with a flap disc. I have been careful to not use this mower as a brush-cutting or bed weeding tool though.

No yearly air filer, oil change, plug. No emissions. Much much much Longer life. What goes unmentioned is how much more effecient an electric motor is compared to gas 2x really easily . You are using less and using it more effectively. Batteries are not without waste and by no means a perfect solution as you very correctly pointed out. Think of it instead as the far lesser of two evils. Hope this offers a different perspective.
Sold! Thanks for the review.
Pretty impressive actually! Well thought out too.
Quick question. Didn't see that there was anything regarding this. Let's say the electronics of one of the batteries fails. Will the unit still run or do you need four batteries to make it operate
Changing the height on this lawnmower is genius, all lawnmowers should have this.
I agree, a lot of european ones do. I have no idea why they aren't all like this either. I love this setup
Coming soon "Mrs. Silver Cymbal TH-cam Channel" 😄🙃
My concern are the batteries. From reading reviews of other battery powered lawn mowers, a lot of people are complaining about the battery. It loses battery life when you over charge them. It’s hard to watch the charging of batteries like a hawk and make sure they are removed from charging as soon as they are charged. Do these batteries have any option to not allow them from being overcharged?
I have a 20v 2amp Worx batteries and a trimmer and blower from 2015. Though the single charger it came with doesn't quite charge them up like the twin, quick charger from our mower or snow blower.
We also have the Landroid robot mower. It uses a 20v 4amp and mows for an hour twice daily, for the perfect lawn mowed look everyday.
I really like this mower design . Hopefully ryobi or Dewalt will incorporate a higher voltage method like this. They both have a good line up of low voltage tools for the lawn and home. I’m also interested to see what elder worx comes out with.
How durable are the batteries if treated correctly? How much are replacement batteries?
Can you do a comparison on electric tree branch shedders? Battery is 1 thing but how many DIY guys can diagnose a repair on this mower let alone buy replacement batteries?
I have three electric mowers now. The Greenworks push mower is OK. The Ego push mower is better, had moe adjustability. Finally I have a Cub Cadet lawn tractor and it is amazing how much grass I can mow on one charge, and can even do OK with some overgrown pasture. Electric is the future and getting better every year. Thanks for your excellent review videos!
After a ton of thought and research, I went with an EGO. Good video. 👍🏻✌🏻
I've got a 5 year old ryobi 40 volt..these things are awesome!
Any thoughts on riding electric mowers? I've got over 1/2 an acre of grass, but I am also an electric tool enthusiast.
Very smart design best I seen so far.
I bought the new Milwaukee battery mower and I love it. I'm sure the Worx is good too. I wish these tool companies would switch over to Lithium Ion Phosphate. I wonder what's holding them back?
I have a 30” toro timemaster. Can’t wait to find an electronic equivalent in the 30” push mower category.
That is a really amazing mower, I reviewed that on last year. If they ever do an electric one that would be absolutely unreal!
Green works has a 28 inch
@@SilverCymbal This is exactly what I'm waiting for. I have the TimeMaster (circa 2017). If Toro or Ego make a 30" equivalent to the TimeMaster I'm going all in.
@@beeslandscaping A quick internet search didn’t yield any results. Got a link to the 28”?
@@jmagnum15 it coming very soon I was at the landscaping show call up greenworks
The build quality looks terrific. I have a Honda gas mower and its been great, this mower really interests me.Expensive , looks a lot better than some Greenworks 80Volt units. Maybe it will go on sale sometime soon.
I had my Ego one season and I had to damn near give it away. It’s okay if you have about a 3000 square foot yard. Anything bigger then that I wouldn’t bother.
If you are taking requests I’d like to see you test out the Ego push mower. I jumped at their excellent line trimmer and blower and am considering replacing my 96 craftsman gas mower soon.
I absolutely love the 56v select cut xp 21inch from EGO. I used it on some tall grass and also mulch leaves from two live oaks. It worked just as well as my toro gas mower did.
Looks like a cool mower. I used to use a Honda 21" and it was great for a rental house that we were in. We just moved up to a larger house and it was taking me 2 hours to mow the lawn so I bought a 42" Scag Liberty Z. WOW! The Scag is well worth the money in my opinion and it makes mowing quick and fun, plus it looks super cool. I was really debating about buying the Ego Z6 zero turn, but It's only been out for about 2 years and that's just too new for me to drop that kind of cash (~$5500). Much easier to go with the tried and true Kawasaki, Briggs or Kohler engines and with the hydrogear ZT2800 drivetrains.
Remember when Tyler Tube did this a few years ago?
Anyway my one concern is long term use as batteries get more work down than a gas engine, so replacement batteries are a concern.
So you use the side discharge when mulching? Also, an awesome improvement would be to take that whole battery module & plug it in the wall for charging. We keep our batteries for our mower, etc indoors because we are in hot and humid Houston. We love our Ego battery operated mower but it doesn’t get up as many leaves as we would like, as usual, I always love your reviews!
Looks great. I'm wondering if it's a good idea to use the battery in other 20V tools, the 4x 20V batteries may need to be balanced in the mower. I like the mower can be charged directly from AC, I may choose it over Greenworks because of it.
That's my question. I've already bought into the Worx ecosystem with my trimmer, I wonder if the batteries are interchangeable. According to the amazon listing they're "compatible," but yeah, what happens if one has less charge than the other?
Been running Toro 60V 22" Max recycler mower since the start of last year. Never going back to gas. Has similar features that this Worx does while different in other areas, but it does just fine for me. I highly recommend anyone looking to replace a gas mower or just buying their first to seriously consider the battery options out there, whether it's this Worx or something else.
That's interesting that you feel that way. The question is, how will you feel in 5 years when you have a 5 year old mower that needs $200 in new batteries? Will you buy a new $400-600 mower which comes with new batteries and a charger, or will you just buy the $200 worth of batteries for your old mower? Or will you wish you had just bought a gas mower which would have lasted you 10 years?
@@roberttreasure1986 $200 worth of batteries sounds a lot cheaper than all of the gas I spent using it for those 5 years. And the gas I save by using the same batteries for the snow blower, and the trimmer, and the blower. That's a lot of gas all told that has been replaced with cleaner energy. No more exhausted gas into the atmosphere negatively contributing to the environment or my lungs. $40/yr in batteries? Sounds like a huge win-win.
@@rawwwrrr4024 I am willing to bet that the electricity you use to generate your batteries is generated mostly by burning coal, some by wind, nucluear and hydro-electric plants. So for you and most Americans, clean energy is a myth. You are just transferring the pollution to the area where the electric plant is situated.
Please do a part 2 to address how it works later in the year!
Hey 👋 DM I have a few packages for you 🎁
How heavy is it compred to gas mower?Thanks!
A few questions: How much does this mower cost? How long is the cutting time, in general? How long do you think the batteries will last if the mower is used every week during the cutting seasons? (Years) And how much do new batteries cost?
Good demo vid. But my purchasing an electric mower is based on cost, both in the short term and the long run. Thanks.👍
$699 for the mower with 4 2ah batteries. Lithium Batteries last about 5 years with normal use. The 6ah batteries shown here are $150 each, but the ones that come with it (2ah) are $50 each to replace. The mower in the video essentially cost $1400 with tax when you consider the battery upgrade to 4- 6ah batteries.
If you want cost efficient, buy a mid '80s toro for a few hundred. It will last 30 years with nearly zero expense except for about a half gallon of gas per hour run time.
@@allaboutroofing2 Thanks much. That's ALOT of money!! I think I'll keep my gas mower til it dies. But then, I maintain my own equipment very well and they last a long time. I could buy ALOT of gas and oil for $1,400 dollars, even at current prices. Cheers!!
@@justincase2281 if California is any indication, at some point we won't have a choice. CA has until jan 2024 until gas powered lawn equity is banned, even for commercial operations. Meanwhile I still use a 2 stroke...LOL noting like the smell of 2 cycle in the morning. 😁👍
@@allaboutroofing2 I just clicked on the link and for $699 the listing states it comes with four 5 amp hour batteries. Not sure where you got the 2 amp hour number from?
What type of cord needed to charge? Will an outdoor heavy duty extension cord work?
I have an older Worx that uses two 56v batteries. If I'm not wrong, that's even more power than this one. It's a very, very good mower with pretty much the same features you describe here. Unfortunately, they discontinued that line of batteries to favor the power-share 20v.
I have a Green Works 40v that works great for areas that I can't hit with my zero turn. Really looking for some actual reviews on the new Ryobi 80v line of push and zero turn mowers coming in the next couple of months (Late Spring/Summer 2022).
I really can't say anything bad about the Green Works stuff though. I have the leaf blower, trimmer, chainsaw, pole saw, and push mower.
I’m curious will this mower stall in high wet grass and what is the torque
I recently gave battery charged mowers a good look, as I was in the market for a new mower. I decided I would regret buying one 5 years from now, when the batteries need to be replaced, in the case of your mower, around $400 for the batteries. And then you also would have a 5 year old mower. I bought a gas mower. But interestingly, the stores now have put the gas mowers in the back; the push is on to buy an electric mower. I bought a Murray, as I've had really good luck with them in the past, and they seemingly last forever. This time I bought one with a spigot built into the deck which you can hook a hose up to, run the engine, and clean off the grass without lifting the mower.
"What the heck are you doing out there, Ralph?!" "Just mowing the water, honey!"
@@benvoliothefirst haha...that's funny(:
Looks sweeeet! The reality is most folks can't afford a $700 mower
You never said how your ceramic coated lawn mower held up through the season... waiting on an update.
The 2021 toro recycler has the mulch or bag lever too
Thats good to hear, maybe the Honda patent ran out. Its insane the Milwaukees new $1000 mower still uses (and loses) a mulching plug.
I would love to see this mow my thick lawn . Had a 500 electric snapper lawnmower I bought last week. 4 mows and it was done for .
I appreciate the review. Thank you so much.
The suction for bagging has been my main complaint with my Ego mower. Gas is still King, for now.
My cheap crappy kobalt mower packs that bag tighter than the 201cc Honda I grew up with. I'll see how it's going at the end of the season but so far I see no reason to run gas anymore.
My 80v Kobalt sucks up everything. I vacuum leaves and all with it. /shrug
Interesting video, thank you. You didn't mention if the mower control handle is adjustable on its own, but from this video the mower controls appear to rise higher with cutting height.
Thank you, no the handle control portion is fixed but the entire assembly can be in three spots. The good part is that since the handle is rounded as are the controls they still worked pretty well in all of the positions.
@@SilverCymbal Thanks again for the reply.
Do the batteries for the 80 volt nitro work on all worx tools?Thankyou!
Bought an electric mower 2 years ago. It lasted for 2.5 cuts before the motor burn up . Last one ill ever purchase
The Honda allows adjusting the amount of bagging vs mulching verses all or nothing. The question is how will it do bagging leaves. I have so many leaves in the fall that it bogs down a gas mower with a 160 cc Briggs.
My Honda (second hand HRX) is a beast like that. Bought it for $200...best mower I have ever owned. Had to mow this past weekend some thick way too tall grass and it was great being able to mulch and bag at the same time. Lawn looks amazing!
Worx the best!
I'd like to see a comparison between this mower & the DeWalt 40V electric mower.
Hey I think MAKITA has similar system which is 56 volt. Nice video
How about a review on the TORO 60V max super recycler ❓
Hey I saw Fantik came out with a new tire inflator? Are you gonna do a review on it?
Cool mower dude!
How did the worx robotic mower hold up? i want to get a robot mower for the backyard and debating which to get
Thank you, I have tried a lot of different robots and a bunch never even made a video they were so bad but the Worx was the best all around unit. The cutting, operation, etc especially for the price. I haven't tried the high end husqvarnas which are suppoed to be good but I don't think you can beat the Worx landroid for around the $1XXX price.
Would like to see how it handles wet foot high grass , your front yard is almost like a bowling green :) it looks like a good unit though mate .
I bought another electric mower brand a couple of years ago , as my old beat up petrol mower was poorly maintained and was having fuel system problems ( thats on me ) , initially i was not impressed with the electric mowers power in the rough stuff , where a petrol mower would just churn through almost anything , and even when bottomed out , the petrol mower would just scarify the land :) .
But the electric unit i bought , its lighter weight and ease of handling , and no more having to fill it up with petrol/unleaded won me over , and when it runs flat i just put a spare battery in it and im good to go , and not too mention its quietness , in times when you wouldnt run your normal petrol mower due to annoying the neighbors , , the electric mower is very quiet . .
And as for the less power on my unit , i found by just changing my mowing method , just taking a bit less of a cut in the heavy stuff and running over it a tad higher , even if i had to go over a second time as you may have to do anyway if your grass has gotten a bit out of hand .
The last thing that really won me over to electric was not having to rip your shoulder out pull starting it as you would on the basic petrol mowers.
How long will it run on a charge? It takes me 2 hrs to push mow my yard.
Thank you keep it coming
It's good to have 4 batteries because I always mow grass in the dark! I'm glad batteries are cheap!
My concern, what is the cost for a battery replacement?
How many gallons of gas vs the cost of replacing the batteries?
Good info. Would have been good to know the Ah of the 20 volts batteries and the motor power if available. The fact that it is 80 volts along doesnt mean is more powerful or long lasting as a 40 volts for example.
Hey 👋 DM I have a few packages for you 🎁
Excited to see the solar lightening video.
It will be my next video, should be posted tomorrow. Thank you
send it to me in about 3 weeks. I'm in SWFL. All the major mower companies come here to test their new equipment. When I say Here I mean right exactly where I live. they come out and test them on our counties school's fields. I'll pit that sucker against grass like you've never seen, St Augustine. i use a series 23 28 inch snapper rider with a 12.5 intek right now.
Thanks for the review! Looking at getting one of these as they are having a Memorial Day sale. Question...do you have to use it with self propelled? I'm tall and usually walk fast and the self propelled usually slows me down. If you can run without it, I'm assuming it would increase battery life as well?
From Leo: I am happy that people can have electric mowers if they want, but they are not yet superior. I bought a new gas mower in 2010 when I bought this house. I use less than 3 gallons a year. That is less than $15 a year even at today's fuel prices. My neighbor is proud of his top grade battery mower, purchased 2 years ago. It needs new batteries every year. They are over $100, and the disposal of old batteries is hazardous waste. Sounds like we are going the wrong way against the environment, and paying extra for it.
Alright, now that you did the whole sales thing, what's the cost? I like that you said how big the mower was.
Hey 👋 DM I have a few packages for you 🎁
Nice mower just bought the new rigg
Congrats, its a very nice machine
Toro has the bag to mulch lever on some of their models also
I haven't seen that. I like the Toro mowers and cut a lot but they need to lose the mulch plugs
@@SilverCymbal Blue lever near rear left wheel on many "Recycler" models- gas and electric- see website and/or reviews
Please review Ego products. I would love to hear your take
Any hope for a 22 inch deck?
Maybe I just missed it but how long will this mower run on a single charge?
As with everything electric its about the cost but besides this I like the design , storing it brilliant , no oil change , gas fume , filters to change and spark plugs ! But my favorite thing it has a handle on the front deck my God why has it taken so long for that idea 🤷
I want a direct comparison with this year’s EGO select cut XP since I’m torn with buying this or EGO
I need to look at the ego mower again soon.
@@SilverCymbal Thank you for the response!
@@robertthompson3447 Hmm beside the extra blade the ego has doesn't this seem to be more powerful?
Better then Ego?
I like it great review on this product.
Hello from Phoenix Arizona. First let me say I really enjoy your videos. Even though I don’t have a lot of grass out here ha ha. I am very impressed with the design of this thing. The one question I had is when you remove the battery pack can you use that as an external power source? For instance can I take it inside and plug my refrigerator into an a power outage? Thanks for the great video
Thank you very much. At the moment they only have this setup for DC/Worx specific stuff. They tell me a backpack blower is coming out that will be [powered off this pack. But they COULD come out with a power station similar to what Ego did here amzn.to/3yngQRb But will they? Not sure but it seems like Worx has come a long way in the past few years.
Had the 40v Worx push mower. Used it around house and worked well and was quite light. Sold it and got the 60v 22in Toro. I’d say better cut, easier on user and more powerful. Got a zero turn for the rest of the lawn, but these battery units are getting better and better.
Lowest / highest cut heights?
Cut height: 1 to 4 in. - I just added extra specs in the description as well. Great question!
Can you do electric mowers testing different brands against each otber
Yeah it's a beast alright....a $800 dollar lawn mower beast.
How low does it cut? I have 8,500 square feet of bermudagrass and most movers don't cut lower than 1.25 inches which is a little high for my needs.
It says 1-4"
Very happy with my 36v Makita, I do think the key to electric mowing is a regular cutting like twice a week though. I’d be interested to see how it copes after a 2 week vacation, as other commentators query the long grass as a well. I suspect it’ll just ramp up the blade speed and get a little less runtime in practice.
The Makita is an excellent mower. I would like a few of thede features on it but many of my tools are Makita and their tool ecosystem is tough to beat
@@SilverCymbal same for me. Just had the blade off my dlm460 after a year, and barely needed any dressing with a flap disc. I have been careful to not use this mower as a brush-cutting or bed weeding tool though.
Brilliant!
Do a review on Milwaukee versus Ryobi weedeaters and blowers
Very nice
Thank you
