2021 vs 2020 EGO 56v Select Cut XP vs EGO Select cut Leaf Suction test. In this video I challenge the new EGO Select Cut XP 2021 model against the EGO Select cut from 2020 as we suck up leaves! Then I clean a super messy yard with TONS of leaves with the Select Cut XP. I hope you find this video helpful. Thanks for watching.

Should have swapped the blades for a truly fair comparison.

@bigredd1574 2 года назад

In one of your videos you questioned about rear wheels locking up and wanted to know if anyone had similar proble. I just found the answer, it is a safety feature...Duff D81 Duff D81 1 month ago The wheels locking is a safety future for mowing on a hill, say you slip on an up hill grade, that won’t allow the mower to roll back onto you. My gas powered does that to. Usually just push it forward a bit and it releases so you can pull it backwards.

@marcomark8 Год назад

Well made video and great comparison. I think that's the information everyone was looking for. I'm going to also look for a video with just the mulching blade to see how it handles leaf pickup.

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

Thanks Mark

@wyatt2439 Год назад

Thanks for this informative video. I just swapped the blade from mulching blade to High lift blade and i notice a huge difference on suction.

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

Thanks Wyatt, yes the high lift blade will provide some really good suction but I would recommend using your bag if your grass hasn't been cut and it's long, it really doesn't do a good job mulching.

@thomasoliver5095 2 года назад

I have both of the mowers in this video demo.Both have their mulch "gator" blades on them.I mulch-don't use the grass catcher.The Select cut XP 10Ahr and 8.3 motor goes thru ANYTHING on my yardpine cones,pine straw,and pine tree twigs.Have a lot of those in East North Carolina.So my mowers act as disposers as well as mowers.Like those cross blades-FAR better than the Greenwork and Kobalt mowers.Also have the Z6 ride mower-use that on the front and side areas of the lawn-handles the twigs and pine cones-no problem.VERY powerful.The Z6 is like TWO XP mowers at once.The XP mowers I use in back-the gate in my fence not wide enough for the Z6.LOVE my EGOS!!!!!!Two came from Lowes-the XP from Ace Hardware.

@Hucklebuz 2 года назад

Should have showed the leaf pickup after one pass with no backing up. We have to bag our leaves for village pickup. I first mulch the leaves (plug inplace), then on the second pass use the bag. Yes it leaves fine cut up leaves in the grass, but still picks up the excess. Problem with only bagging don't get much in a leave bag when the leaves are mostly not chopped. But when the leaves are first mulched then sucked up, get 10x more leaves in a bag although will be heavier. I also would have used the same blades in each.

@ajgreen868 2 года назад

I find 3 to be the sweet spot for leaves with my Greenworks mower. Plus that turbo over ride seems to help a lot. I think ego needs to add that feature to their mowers. Looks like they did a hell of a job on the clean up though! Another fantastic demonstration video from you. I salute you! 🖖. I also thing Greenworks needs to make a high lift blade.

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

Thanks AJ and yes I do like the Turbo button 👍🏻

@dhowting 2 года назад

I leave mine on 2 and use the high lift blade regardless if I'm bagging or mulching and I LOVE IT!!!!!!

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

2 is super low on my lawn, it's also slightly uneven so it would scalp some areas but I hear you Doug definitely sold machines for battery 🔋

@danielmoore1394 2 года назад

I don't "vacuum" the leaves, I just mulch them. The yard looks great afterward and it's not near as much work. Better for the grass and critters, as well.

@joeseipp6803 Год назад

Great review! Would love to see a video of you mulching the leaves first to reduce their volume/ size and then go back over the lawn again using the bagger. This is what I do to my lawn in the fall. Seems to get up almost all the leaves and the pieces of leaves that remain on the lawn are so small they make excellent mulch! I don't see much difference between the high lift blade and the mulch blade results, just my observation not to mention the hassle and time to change from one blade to the other.

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

Thank you all honesty if you're going to do something like that using the high lift blade with the bag on it usually does a pretty good job of sucking them right into the bag. I will tell you using a mulching blade won't make a big difference because it doesn't cut the leaf down too much if anything it'll probably make a mess on the lawn

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

With leaves mulching is a total mess, that's why I'm a big believer in bagging

@kelkev85 2 года назад

thank you for doing this video, this is exactly the kind of comparison I was looking for. I have the original 20" ego steel deck and its been a tank as far as reliability after a lot of abuse but it has very little suction and ego only offers the standard blade for it.

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

Thanks for your comments much appreciated and thanks for watching

@anthonybrown2374 2 года назад

How can you compare results when you have 2 different blades? Pretty simple that a high lift will pick up more than a mulch blade.

@forumtyish 2 года назад

Exactly! I don't understand why he didn't use the same blade type in both machines. All things being equal, I'd hope the newer mower model with a slightly stronger motor would do better, but there is really no way to know because he didn't actually test this.

@Mr-Chris 2 года назад

Nice video, I would like to see this without the bagger. A actual mulch test compared to a Honda.

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

@brianbanks3044 2 года назад

I would have liked to see a one-pass cut and see how that worked before you backed up over the first pass....i don't know if it makes a huge difference but i think the suction of the mower works better while going forward.....the rotation of the blade and the forward edge cutting shoots the clippings in the right direction to go into the bag.....just an observation...i don't bag and I use the side discharge, so I don't worry about it but i am sure some engineer said, go forward while using bagger

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

Brian honestly the suction on both was pretty good on the 1st pass, can hardly see the difference but thanks for your feedback 👍🏻

@jimgeneva2464 2 года назад

I never back up my ego except if it starts coughing up leaves.

@brianbanks3044 2 года назад

@@TechMadeEzy i think the rotation of the blades circulates the clippings towards the bagger or the discharge site.....it probably happens to quick for the eye but i am sure slow mo underneath would show direction of flow.....i am sure it sucks in both directions but more in the forward path

@show-me-retro 2 года назад

As a current owner of the previous gen Ego self propelled mower I was super disappointed with this newer version. The ergonomics were so bad I returned it after 1 mow. The handle redesign is a mess and I was constantly messing with the self propel knob when not wanting too. The removal of the handle in the front of the mower to its new position is baffling. The handle is now plastic vs the rubber padding of the previous. Newer is always better and I quickly found that out

@robedwards3393 Год назад

I just bought a select cut XP power + with the 10 amp battery and when I stopped the machine it will not start again and I have to tip it to the side and clear grass out of the way you find this common. After that it'll start. It is a little frustrating in Tennessee with Kentucky bluegrass that is damp here it rains a lot.

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

Yup wet grass clumps up, nice machine and 10ah battery is sweet 🔥

@andypreiser5919 2 года назад

Great video I have one question. The high lift blade looks great. But does the mulch blade cut up the leaves more so you do not have to empty the bag and fit more in your trash can? Both looked good but can you answer how the leaves are in the bag. Also does the XP come with a mulch blade?

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

XP comes with the mulch and high lift blades, I didn't see much mulch size difference with the high lift compared to the mulch blade honestly

@Sjtabor2000 2 года назад

So the key is the mulching blade? My gas mower went bad and I need a mower for the spring… I was disappointed when I tried my brothers EGO. Suction was bad…but it didn’t have the mulching blade. I saw that Toro 2022…has new suction technology…do you think that it may now have an edge on the EGO. Haven’t heard any big news on what EGO is doing in 2022? I think suction is a game changer for me. I have a lot of trees. I want to go battery…..Any thoughts? Great job on your videos!! Appreciate all you do to help!!!

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

Key is high lift blade and definitely a strong motor to create the suction. In this test I really didn't see a big difference between 2020 and 2021 they are both good machines

@Sjtabor2000 2 года назад

@@TechMadeEzy Thanks for making it clearer. Does the 2020 model come with the high lifting blades? If not ….if I put these blades on the 2020 model then suction should improve? Thanks so much! Look forward to your reviews so much! Lots to learn on this new technology..

No you have to purchase the high lift blade separately, thanks for watching and happy holidays

@srschabel 2 года назад

@@Sjtabor2000 TME is right, if you have the 2020 EGO select cut you need to buy the high lift blade separately. That was the case with me. As soon as the new model came out with the dual blade with high lift I found the blade on one of TME’s affiliate links to Amazon and bought it. I think it was like $30 or $40. Put it on as soon as I got it and haven’t taken it off. This was a while ago so basically a full season of use. I absolutely love the blade. Even with the 2020 model I noticed a huge difference in lift especially when it comes to clumps of grass. Leaves are easy but grass clumps are heavier and that’s where the high lift blade shines. It also does a better job lifting the blade up while cutting leaving less stragglers. I would love to have the power increase with the 2021 but am very happy with my current configuration. Thanks to TME for all your vids on this topic. Helped greatly in making an informed decision!

@tomsmith1059 2 года назад

Thanks for these videos which you provide info for those of us not sure what to buy. As an Aussie, we are a little behind you guys so the LM2156 isn't available to us yet. So my question is when you use the LM2135 vs LM2156 do you notice much difference in power etc?

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

Hi Tim thanks, All honestly after using it for a full season I really didn’t see that much of a difference. Let me know if you need any help I’d be glad

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

I live in Alabama with 85% hardwood tree cover and pay a crew to do my summer trimming, blowing and grass. However, I am for sure going EV on the lawn tools to be rid of the stinky gas, oil, upkeep, plugs, filters etc. After researching several dozen videos, I am sold on EGO full product lines and will buy one of each and let my Honda gas go to charity. I like the fold-up aspect, as it enhances space for my books sold in 1,289 retailers statewide. Space is great and do not try this with a gas mower. I must say, this is the first video where there was a comparison for picking up just leaves, which is all I plan on doing, as they stop cutting my grass end of December and then the billions of leaves are a issue. My wife of 55 years of marriage and I stay active and have a mountain top home on Shades Mountain about 1,200 feet, on the rocky bluff side and own all the way down to the valley. We leave it to the Bobcats, Deer, Turkeys, etc., and only cut the front lawn, as we have rocks the size of small homes everywhere, but not so in front with beautiful Bermuda grass well kept. Fall & winter leaves should be more fun to deal with our coming EGO products and we plan on keeping our summer lawn care crew, as we find little joy in 90's plus temperatures, etc. I did see a video about the only issue of concern about EGO, that they are seeing some degrading of battery life in recent years, so I hope this issue with their battery supplier is resolved, as that seemed to be a contentious problem with customers. Have you heard about this issue?

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

I have a bunch of ego batteries I’ve only got one now that’s probably about four years old that showing some good wear. Otherwise I’ve had nothing but a good experience and I talk to a lot of people on the channel and haven’t heard anything major. I’ve also had good experiences with Ego customer service. I feel they stand behind their batteries in their products and I purchase most of the items that I review, especially my ego stuff. I wish they sponsored me more.

@noctisgamma556 Год назад

Do the results change if the leaves are freshly fallen and not dried and crispy? I usually deal with my leaves before they get crispy and dry, I'm not sure if I should expect different results when it comes to the leaves.

@TechMadeEzy Год назад

I would think wet would affect it but that’s about it.

@peterb.mahnke1068 3 месяца назад

I have a 2114. How well will my bagger work? Can I put the high lift blade on? Normally, my wife and I rake, and I get out the Toro vacuum/ mulcher and fit 3 bags of raked leaves into one bag. Can I get similar results?

@TechMadeEzy 3 месяца назад

Doesn’t seem a high lift blade is made for your mower, mulching no matter what with a mower is messy. Having a high lift blade helps with the suction for sure. Without it I wouldn’t bother but you can try with your normal blade and the bagger and see for yourself

@Coffeeismyhappyplace 2 года назад

I’m an Ego product addict. But this was not for me. For one I NEVER bag. And two I NEVER mow over that many leaves . I have a wood line at the end of my back yard to put yard waste. I rake small front yard & then use my Ego XP mulching blade to get the rest. Both of those things r good for the lawn. Then I blow most of the heavy layer of leaves with my Ego 615 blower to the wood line in the back & then use my toro timemaster 30 inch mulching mower to beautifully do the larger back yard. Using two different blades didn’t seem like a fair test. And mowing backwards instead of showing the first pass was not helpful.

@TechMadeEzy 2 года назад

@jimgeneva2464 2 года назад

I bag leaves, I use the high lift and it works well. Unfortunately I need to stop and dump the bag every pass when there are leaves, but typically I can get 3 to 4 rows before dumping the bag. Why use a bag? I have too much thatch.

@Coffeeismyhappyplace 2 года назад

@Jim Geneva Raking is better for thatch. And mulching is nourishing for the lawn. I read an article on winter lawn maintenance. My back does not want to carry & empty a bag.
