Ego Trimmer 56V / THIS IS THE BEST TRIMMER EVER!!

Advice, don't play music in the background of your videos.

Ok thank you. I’ll try and improve.

[@gavinkleiman2027]

I agree, good review but annoying music

[@TheDocOLove]

I agree, hard to understand what he is saying over the music, didn't mind so much while he was cutting, but it should be quite when he is talking.

[@damodoesall6240]

Thats music totally ruins this, re-upload minus the music dude

[@KeithOutWest]

Good demo. Love the line loader. Lose the music. Thanks.

[@bdub._gamez3328]

I’ve just picked one up at Lowe’s yesterday and I love how soft the handle bar is. It makes great comfort and easy rest position in your hands.

[@lawnporn]

Great to hear!

[@Chazmataz0117]

I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use kzbin.infoUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.

[@YourFrienjamin]

The carbon fibre shaft is used to save weight, too, and I noticed the difference when upgrading from the metal option.

[@lawnporn]

It’s cool for sure and helps with the fatigue on bigger jobs

[@kyleolsen5873]

Just bought their blower, very impressed, getting this next

[@behramcooper3691]

Does the head swivel for edging/trimming just like the Ryobi does?

[@lawnporn]

I’ve not seen the Ryobi but the head angle is fixed

[@billhobbs3315]

What model number is this product?

[@pappyroxx1841]

Impressed with the Edging portion of your video....

[@JCTHEKEEWEE]

Could you use it for average brush cutting or change the head on it for a blade?

[@2BLIKEH1M]

Great video if I turn off the sound

[@pinkfreud62]

I bought one a few days ago & literally weed wacked my waist tall weeds in my back yard, lol. I have a small urban yard, maybe 50 X 50 and it took me 3 days. The battery only lasted about a quarter of my lawn each night I wacked coz the weeds were so thick. But it did the job and didn't use much line at all.

[@davidburden2360]

how much weight gms?

[@lawnporn]

Not sure. I’ve never measured it but it is very light. The main weight comes from the battery. The 2ah is very light and obviously the 10ah is probably a bit too heavy.

[@davidburden2360]

@@lawnporn I saw it said 8.5kgs? the stihl fsr85 is 5.5kg petrol, cheers

[@zaineridling]

Excellent, mate! 💯💯💯

[@TheBrij33]

Can we attach different tools to this, such as an edger and so on??

[@lawnporn]

Thanks for the question. With this one no but they have a multi tool power head and a range of attachments. Works with the same battery.

[@crimmy0204]

I use the full carbon shaft model and it is probably the best "tool" I've ever used, done lots of videos. they have defective trigger mechanisms. But even with that they are still great, the trigger lets off but I can spin it up again nearly instantly, and it only really messes me up on long edging sections. Hopefully it lasts a long time for me. I recommend using Y line in it, makes it about 4x louder but actually creates lift allowing cuts at lower speeds. I own 2 fold up models like this one but they annoy me as they are heavier, and always ship with the head not perfectly aligned on the shaft. so if you can deal with a slightly annoying trigger issue, a head the spins the wrong way compared to commercial trimmers, get the full carbon shaft model, it costs a bit more but it's amazing if it can last a few more years. way more efficient than the power heads.

[@lawnporn]

Cheers for that comment. It was a good read.

[@KeithOutWest]

I was too lazy to read all your comment, but thumbs up to you for putting that much effort into it.

[@crimmy0204]

@@KeithOutWest my full carb shaft trimmer is prone to over heating though so I have to pulse it now.. its not amazing really for edging but the rest is fine.

[@KeithOutWest]

@@crimmy0204 cool

[@EstonianBerserker]

What’s that metal coupler on the shaft, multi attach / expand version like Ryobi?

[@lawnporn]

This one doesn't have attachments. The Ego Multi Tool Power Head does that and has a multitude of attachments.

[@mattmeyer8593]

Just bought one. Agree with review. Trimmer not great on thick, woody weeds, but that’s okay. So far, so good. Question. How long is the battery likely to last. Not each use, but over the long run? A year? Two? More? Less? Thanks.

[@TheUnkus]

As an audio engineer... If you are going to play music, cut the music at 2-4k on an eq. It won't be as distracting.

[@lawnporn]

Thank you I really appreciate that. I have logic in my computer so will play with that a bit. Thanks for the tip

[@richardnoble3992]

Hey mate, once you start talking, you might want to fade out the music. Thanks.

[@lawnporn]

Thanks for that I certainly try and improve.

[@MrRoyobentoni]

Ditto on the music. Good report and review

[@tb5674]

Yeah, when demoing a product especially a battery powered, I’d like to hear the noise output of the product instead of terrible stock music. Good video otherwise

[@lawnporn]

Noted and thanks for the feedback

[@bklyn2va2dc]

Anything you didn’t like about it?

[@lawnporn]

Seriously no. I’ve used mine which I got a bit after Matt Ryks and used it on big areas like the school project and there is plenty of power and good battery life. I’ve changed the cord a few times, the button wind up is a breeze.

[@bklyn2va2dc]

#Lawnporn lawn care tips Great! Thanks for the feedback!! 👍🏿

[@seemovielove3597]

no guiding wheel for edge trimming?

[@seenok7960]

I wanted to like the EGO Trimmer. I have the blower and I'm going to buy the mower soon. But I bought the trimmer last year and it seemed great. But, ergonomically, it did not feel comfortable in hand at all. It was lopsided because the battery weighed its side down.. I couldn't get comfortable with it. But EGO is a great line. After I returned the EGO trimmer I purchased the DeWalt 20V trimmer because I have a ton of other DeWalt 20v tools. That one felt better in hand than the EGO. BUT I was not a fan at all of the bump stock feed. It would quickly jam up or would not come out. I quickly returned that too. Before I tried those two trimmers out I'd been using a Black & Decker 36V Lithium trimmer. It's smaller and doesn't use a bump stock feed. It automatically detects when the line has gotten too short. I continue to use that to this day. I think I would buy another B&D once mine dies ... or maybe give the EGO another try. I would have to catch it on sale.

[@lawnporn]

Hey thanks for your thoughts. I haven’t tried the others you mention but glad you found something you like.

[@pappyroxx1841]

The battery doesn't last f.s. looking on line to replace it and its more expensive than the actual whole Wacker

Yeah I see the battery prices and yeah wow. I suppose it’s a bit like printers and printer cartridges. The cartridges cost more than the original printer you bought.

[@marty232]

the batteries are so expensive

[@TheBasher05]

The way to look at it is you’re buying all your fuel upfront. Over the course of the life of the battery it more than pays itself back.

[@Boodieman72]

@@TheBasher05 Not really, you have to pay for the electricity to charge them up, which is the fuel.

[@v8soarer1991]

@@Boodieman72 420wh per charge at your on or off peak rate. Maybe 12 to 15 cents per charge

[@crimmy0204]

I own 9 of them... they are expensive sure, but my full commercial gigs burned thousands of dollars in gas a year, where I can put ego tools in a volvo station wagon that gets 29mpg, my cost of operation a day is just under $10.00 cad with lunch. in canada off peak hours its 6 cents a kw/h so I can charge up 50ah for like 30 cents. which would = around $10-$15 in gas.... it adds up fast. The best part being the fact I don't have to huff gas fumes all day.

[@seemovielove3597]

how much does it cost for the battery? How long does it last?

[@drush525]

Until you snap that paper thin shaft that's made of tinfoil. They tell you to pound sand and you can't even get a replacement shaft.

[@Fosterchild56]

Do you mean the plastic part that holds shaft together? The shaft itself is carbon fiber and has a lifetime warranty.

[@mwanamume]

After a few months the powerload stopped working Can't find a way to hand load. EGO is the Worst Company Ever - they will repair under warranty but will take 200 miles and four hours of driving. It takes hours and hours to reach them on phone, and they don't follow thru. I deeply regret buying the trimmer, hedge trimmer and blower from them, committing to their battery. Worst Company Ever!
