Wrong lower blade!!! The mulch blade that's on there now is specifically designed to spread grass clippings, not blow it into the volute and out the chute. This blade will not work well with the grass catcher bag either. I recommend either of the other two blades, the high lift would work the best, but at the expense of battery power. (less run time) If you had two batteries, the high lift blade, (the biggest one) would work perfectly. Another big help, is if you could mow away from the chute, to give the chute clearance from the adjacent tall grass would reduce restriction, for a much better discharge.

Such a good point. Some others will mow 4-6 inches of grass but sometimes you got to mow taller grass. I know you should use a string trimmer first but I wanted to know this too. I have a Toro super recycler from 2004 and it still works but for how much longer? I could mow this but with lots of running over the same area and taking partial rows. And I always mulch, I'd definitely need to side discharge. It's an 850 dollar mower but the performance seems good. Just sucks I would probably need a $500 battery in 5 to 6 years.

That's impressive! I used to clean up vacant properties when I was in my late teens with a Honda Harmony, and it struggled through tall thick stuff like that. The Ego burned up a lot of battery, but got the job done well! I would typically need to "half-track" it with the Honda, by only cutting an half the width of the lawnmower. A few suggestions for improving the side discharge performance. First, Install the high-lift blade. I noticed you were using the mulching blade. That will give the clippings more velocity. Second, blow your clippings onto an area that's already been cut as much as possible. Blowing the clippings into an uncut-area means that the mower is working harder re-cutting the already-cut clippings, and thus the smaller bits can clog the discharge and consume more motor power. What I would do is mow in a counter-clockwise direction with the cute pointing outwards.

I'm impressed with mower/battery, and the review was good. Some pointers to help. Have the deck raised to highest level for initial mow on high grass. Much easier on mower and operator. Use the high lift blade with chute, not the mulching blade. Less chance of blockage. Have the chute discharge facing away from where next mow-line will be. That way you will not be mowing the discharged grass, which makes it even harder to mow. Don't mow to the full width of mower cut, do half deck width mows. It will mean mre walking, but will be way easier and quicker in the long run. Once finished, stand back and admire the work and the mower while enjoying a cold beverage.

I use my current Honda HRX 217HYA 200cc with hydrostatic transmission and have zero issues it cuts like a dream. I also use it to vacuum/bag trimmed yews, hydrangeas, etc, after pruning. However, I'm getting older and like the appeal of electric. My concerns are as follows: 1) Will this mower leave clumps, lines, and trails of grass while mowing 2) I've read reviews that this will not pick up/vacuum leaves very well even with the high lift blades installed (doesn't come with the mower, apparently) 3) Debating on getting two 12ah batteries buying mower by itself or the 10ah battery and charger combo and one additional 12ah battery as I want to be sure I can finish my tasks, I'd prefer a super fast dual battery charger if they make one 4) Most importantly, I've read where Ego customer service is a joke, and if your mower stops working, you're helpless and essentially have a very expensive paper weight due to no local dealer support I'd appreciate any and all feedback or suggestions 😊

That lawnmower is a beast! Yes, I would say that cutting wet waist high grass with a push mower vs a riding mower is definately a torture test. Either way, keeping your grass shorter along the front ditch should help dry things out and also keep you mosquito population down. However, I would recommend resharpening the blades more frequently, or if you are like me, just replacing them and have a spare set ready to go. PS: Your 1 Bar could be borderline red, as lithium batteries hold full charge right up to the end and drop off dramatically. QUESTION: Any problem with the front staying down over level ground/bumps? When I looked at the mowers (now carried by Lowe's) they seemed back end heavy w/o a battery in.

Lawn that long your better off rear discharging by using a jockey strap to hold the door up a little, also the old select cut models had always had an issue with the side discharge plug, it was poorly designed.

For that sort of use, torque is the biggest factor and when it comes to torque, elec is king. These elec mowers act opposite of what you think.

I have an EGO battery from 5 years ago on EGO push mower. I also run thru tall grass. I'd say my battery gives out faster than when first got it, but still works & recharges. I'm an older lady, so doing shorter sessions to push mow (even when just walking around behind it) is actually a feature. :-) But wouldn't trade the mower for gas again! We spent $650 for the mower 5 years ago with 1 battery. I'm debating about getting a new battery, as well as debating about upgrading to an EGO riding mower.

you can just buy a knockoff lower capacity battery for it to have a spare. They're about $180.00

@@MegF142857 MOst people seem to throw the old battery away, sell the mower for whatever they can get and get a whole new mower. I've been using the same gas mower since 2005 so I'm sticking with that for now. And then another good used gas mower.

I am surprised. My EGO lawn mower can barely handle grass that is 3 inches high.

It is for real, this mower will cut tall tall grass, on mine you can see the battery drain rapidly, slap it on the charger and in an hour you can do it again.

The problem with electric mowers is they aren’t standardized at all. Gas mowers, for the most part can share parts and are abundant. These are all very specific designs and share no commonalities with each other. Not to mention the cost of replacing batteries once they ware out, and who knows if they will even be producing the same batteries when that time comes.. maybe in few years things will start to fall into place, but right now I’ll stick to gas mowers.

Torture has never been an issue, it's the battery life dying after cutting 500 sqft and batteries costing $200+

He did 10,000sq feet of tall grass on 1 charge in the video. I'm impressed.

After this test you better sharpen the blade on that mower!
