Mean Green Mowers 2019 CXR Overview

[@nekroeddie13]

City of Los Angeles - Rec & Parks purchased a couple of these. We basically use them for the front panels at our main yard. These cannot handle heavy work loads nor could they be washed with water. We are asked to scrape and clean as best as possible without water. The average life span we realized is about 4-5 hours. We deal with slopes and rockier parks/landscapes that this struggles with. Along with all that, the deck is right under the operator which makes it a bit more of a hassle getting into certain sections that other brands do not struggle with. To add to that, the front castor wheels become a nuisance when getting into different spots as well as turning. it feels a bit wonky

How many times can your batteries be recharged before seeing reduced run times and does the temperature outside affect this amount ? How much does one of your battery packs cost ?

[@MeanGreenMowers]

The batteries will last up to 8,000 mowing hours. Please contact us at [e-mail] and we can explain any questions you have!

[@mquigly1547]

How much are 2 replacement batteries?

[@jerrykinnin7941]

These are made down the road from my house. Interesting concept. Definitely need a battery swap out pack. Like the forklifts. Then you can have 3 batteries. 1 in the mower, one charged, one being charged.

[@2010drive]

Yeah I guess if you run it 24/7

Hey Zach as with every mower out there they practically all cut grass the same. I went and bought myself some Kavli blades they are on a different playing level they are simply amazing whom ever has seen them has been blown away they are on youtube have a look , I am telling everyone who will listen.

[@1978Handres]

@@donaldendsley6199 i wondering why ? They dont have a deck pulley System hydro pumps or engine , right there they are saving at least 5k

[@donaldendsley6199]

@@1978Handres Batteries mostly. Also the electric motors are at least close to the price of the pulleys, hydro pumps and engine. Also part of that expense is low volume production as well. Also even if Mean Green produced as many mowers as say Exmark They'd still likely cost more because there are likely more custom made parts (Motors, controllers, chargers, etc...) Then on top of all of that there is likely a higher profit margin figured in as well.

Man I would get my dream Ducati motorcycle , a 5 string Warrick bass guitar and a pack of Now or Laters and STILL have money left over for a 200 dollar Craftsman self propelled push mower son. You guys are obviously doing more than cutting grass over there in the ivory tower. Y'all are smoking it too! Lol!!!!!

[@twocanz5975]

they are a little pricey, but the are the leader so far with commercial gas free mowers. We do a lot of Hotels and I am considering a purchase because they run so quietly in comparison. We too are hung up on the price tag, but I think it will be an inevitable Purchase.

[@lookahere]

@@twocanz5975 Man I am absolutely sold on the abilities and the looks of these mowers. But that price tag is just way too much for the average home owner like myself. I cut my yard every week and maybe 2 other yards at the most. Trying to convince my wife that I need to finance a 25 thousand dollar lawnmower would be all but impossible. With 2 Craftsman mowers already(one push and one riding) that still look new and work great, she would think I had gone crazy. Lol! However, if I had a lawn care business I would definitely consider purchasing a Mean Green mower. Even though I still think the price is at least 8 grand too high.

Sure, check out ryobi zero turn.. I bought one to use (proffesionally) while I am having my walker zero turn rebuilt/restored..on my 4th week.. I'm now thinking if getting rid of my walker and buying another ryobi.. I average 40 yards a day with it. On Mondays, I have 3 ranches I take care of, each with a minimum of a half a football field of turf... I mow all 3 in the same day with my ryobi zt.. (I charge it about 15 minutes in between each place using a little generator. Oh.. Best part.. Price tag brand new is only about $3500.. And. One other thing. It actually mows (flat surfaces) nearly 2 times as fast as a walker. And does a nice job at that.

The worst thing about Z is the motor maintenance, possible failure, buying gas all the time can be a pain in the butt, oil changes, belts, etc.. I don't like the "anderson connector" ... That should be simplified into a main shutoff switch. Those "Anderson Connectors" will wear out and possibly break from repeated plugging and unplugging.

Say if your mowing up againa brick wall and the other two blade was over rock, would just be nice to turn the two over rock off so that is doesnt pick up the rocks and ruin your blade. Yes you could use a push mower and make two runs down the strip of grass or make one strip with one blade and continue on to mow the rest of the yard. Big deal?

How long does it take to charge. What if you are using it all day and all night 24/7, the gas will keep going but the electric will need to be charged every night. What if you run out of fuel or power on a steep hill. The down side to something like this is the parts. I hate electric vehicles.

Matt Wassam. He does have a point to a certain degree. It says 6.5-7 hours run time. Well sometimes they can have a 10-12 hour day. So can these be charged effectively throughout the day on a less than ideal system like trailer setup between job sites. The batteries can handle up to 8,000 cycles. That is impressive. My main worry with these personally is charge times. Can it keep up on a regular day with a busy lawn business and their gas equipment.
