How tall are you? You're bending quite a bit with most of the tools, that's exhausting if working for more than a few mins. Are any of them adjustable for length?
Love my Milwaukee mower as well.. bags extremely well and has tons of power. My only gripe is the mulch plug kind of sucks and tends to let a bunch of clippings through
Honestly i love it but i have a small yard and it cuts pretty good and ive definitely saved gas and ive learned i can use my leafblower battery pack also with mower !
I just bought the Melnor and what sold me is the fact that it comes with a lifetime warranty so I’m just going to write on the sprinkler where I bought it and when and that it has a lifetime warranty. If it ever breaks, I’ll take it back to Lowe’s.
Not bad but it probably says with a specific string unless you already had the right string try again even if it is like echo black diamond probably will cut better
I love the Milwaukee mower too. Bought it on clearance the end of the year it came out. Wish that it was larger because my main mower is the Timemaster. If the Milwaukee was 30" deck I probably wouldn't use the Timemaster. Only reason i dont use it each cut is the time saving using the bigger deck.
The reason for not putting Ego on top is because they only provide outdoor power equipment. That is lame... it should be based on how a mower with battery and charger perform based on regular usage. I understand where you coming form as it is more cost effective to get the Milwaukee mower over any other brand if you already own Milwaukee power tools and batteries. I own Makita power tools but I decided not to get their 36v mower. I own a Greenworks 60v pro 21 inch mower and it runs flawlessly. I also own the Ego select cut mower and it also runs flawlessly. Out of the two mowers I prefer the ego as it has a better overall cut quality and is easier to push and maneuver. It is not a big difference between both mowers but it is noticeable. I bought the Greenworks over the Ego mower initially because I did not like the Ego mower had a plastic deck and did not like the way it looked. I also preferred the layout of the handles to run the motor and self propel on the Greenworks mower. It results in no fatigue on the fingers. Two years later I got the Ego Select cut mower just to compare. Turns out I was wrong about the plastic deck.
EGO for the win live in Florida mow once a week rains everyday during growing season we have real mowing to do down here unlike you up there don’t care what review says best battery more reliable , love Milwaukee or Makita as hand tools but wouldn’t buy a mower from them, real man mowing here in the swamp not some dude walking in a field with a baby carriage
just a tip if you live in australia . I bought trimer line from aldi from the centre isle and after 50 years of using line in wipper snippers this was the best and longest lasting line i have ever used and super cheap. If you ever see it buy it
I'm a little bummed that you never gave Makita's much newer updated XGT 40v mower a chance when it was available at the time of your original video. Makita supposedly fixes all of the issues and complaints with the 18V x2 lxt mower you purchased and reviewed here.
I just bought a Greenworks on the weekend to replace my gas mower which finally died after 15 years. Honestly, its not bad for an electric mower. Doesn't cut as well as gas but gets the job done.
Not defending the Mikita mower but just curious had you ever sharpened the blade on it? I saw a review where the guy had a lot of straggles left and then he sharpened the blade and it was damn near a perfect cut (according to him) I had a Kobolt mower first and I had the same issue with the batteries just dying after a couple months where they wouldn’t hard charge hints why I got the ego. And I must have inspired people cause there’s now 4 other houses I see with an Ego push mowers that use to have gas mowers 😂
Immediately after I got done the OG vid this popped up and I instantly changed my mind lmao I’m going w/ ryobi! I’ve got a half dozen of the big batteries floating around anyway small pieces of the property I want a nice little push mower for so it’ll be perfect 🤞🏼
That green works is roughly half the price now compared to when you shot the vid, I was already intrigued but now I’m bout to pull the trigger on ‘er lol Great video man!
I haven't had any issues with my Greenworks (same model, but I bought it August 2022); other than: - Common lock-out when using self-propelled - you need to disengage a foot before you need to turn. I heard other brands (like a newer Ego) also have that issue? I just learned to disengage before I need to turn - A few of the stall-outs you seemed to mention - maybe one every 8000 sqft (which for me is 1 in 4 mows). I have a similar issue with their trimmer where I can't reengage immediately after disengaging, and suspect it may be a battery circuit design thing. They have since revised their batteries - compatible but noticeably smaller and with a revised "look". I have one of the newer ones, so I should just run off that for a month and see if it cuts out. I also have a pile of batteries (eight, like 6 4Ah and 2 2Ah), because sometimes only the kits will ever go on sale. None failed yet.
Agree but I selectively hear my hyper biased opinion that E Mowers are just not there yet. Just look at batt warranty and assume that is what you will get.
@@CowsGoM3ow correct they tend not to last / perform and if they fail their cost prohibitive to buy generally standalone separate from the mower/tool thus best to just assume IMO that worst case is life of warranty on battery and after that is bonus.
So did the greenworks batteries totally die or just drain fast? If that killed 6 of your batteries they need to refund you or something cuz thats almost 2 grand worth of tool batteries. You should do a vid about all your greenworks problems. I have a greenworks 13 amp 21" corded mower and its been great but Ive only had it since the spring.
I pretty much agree with your rankings because if the Greenworks mower is causing you problems then it is only natural that it would lose rankings. Also the one good thing about the Ego and Greenworks mowers that they only need 1 battery to run instead of 2 unlike the others you reviewed. Plus opinions change over time as well.
I still love my greenworks (but it's the only one I know). I would have happily taken the Milwaukee if it had been available and cost just an arm or a leg (rather than both)
I have recently taken over the position of head custodian for a K-8 grade school. I noticed the front of my school needed cleaning and saw that I have the EGO 765 CFM blower here in my new office, however, there was no manual---so I watched your video so thank you for the lesson in operating this piece of machinary. I really wouldn't mind having one of these for my home. It served my need here at school. I call it girl friendly--I hate those back pack blowers.
If anything the wider blade takes a larger toll on the small engine/battery being used on this mower. It requires more torque to rotate a heavier object. It might be a beefy ass battery that NEEDED some resistance, but I severely doubt it
