UPDATE: Sorry that this is long, but it is very necessary for any of you considering this mower. I’ve been reading every review on this mower and have seen many say that the Self Propel drive is insanely loud. Because of these reviews I was considering a Milwaukee or Honda. Because of this channel and especially this video, I went out and bought the lm2206. My yard was insanely overgrown because of my hesitation to buy this mower. In my backyard the grass was up to my shins and still wet. Tomorrow is rain, so I was forced to mow today. Today I spent 5 1/2 hours doing yard work and put this mower through hell, but here are the results. This mower is BY FAR the absolute best mower I’ve ever used in 40 years! The self propel drive is NOT, let me repeat NOT loud at all. The power of this mower is insane. Thick, wet, shin high grass, and it absolutely pulverized it. I can’t put into words how impressed I am with this mower. I cut, then cross cut with the mulching blade, and you’d never know my yard was so overgrown. The end result blows my mind. I planned to bag, but the mower didn’t come with a high lift blade, only 2 mulching blades (my ONLY complaint). Bottom Line: This mower is amazing. I laughed when I started using it thinking of those reviews. Perhaps I got lucky and got a quiet one, but not likely. This mower isn’t loud at all, and I’m wondering if there are some anti EGO shenanigans going on. I’m gushing over this mower. It really is that good.

FYI most people can hear a 3db increase, and it's not that bad. 70-75 db would be a loud home stereo but not crazy loud. The standard gas powered mower is typically around 90 db. If your hearing is important to you then always wear ear protection. Good review using a proper sound meter.

@scarecrow1958 3 дня назад

I picked up the EGO LM2206SP a few days ago and mowed my backyard today. Normally I wear earmuffs when using my Toro gas mower. I do not have a noise meter for comparison measurement; however, I did not feel the need to wear them today. I used the turbo setting and self-propelled feature (both make some noise), but the EGO electric mower did not seem so loud that I would need to wear my earmuffs. I always wear them when using gas mowers.

@AEAC 5 месяцев назад

A 10 dB increase is perceived by the human ear to be "twice as loud" or "double the volume" Steve. This can be found all over the internet in various studies in different fields. For me, it was the screaming pitch of the LM2206SP on speeds 2-3-4 (I never tried 1 or Max) that I perceived as way louder than my gassers and quite uncomfortable to endure, even with -35dB ear plugs in. The blade whir, I found to be quite pleasant, but as I shared, for me was drowned out by the dominating high pitch drive-scream. ... I did just have my annual physical last Tuesday and at age 49, still had perfect hearing. Maybe it's just me, lol. Hooe this helps clarify and thanks for the great review. Steve

@nobrien1 5 месяцев назад

I absolutely agree. I returned the one that I got due to the squeal noise and a couple other things.

@jeffer1101 5 месяцев назад

As someone who used to work in the audio industry, you are correct. Decibels are not on a linear scale, they are logarithmic. If this were an amplifier, the 10 db increase is "twice as loud" and would require 10 times the amplifier to achieve. You can continue that relationship as you climb the scale. As you mentioned, the wind noise from the mower blades isn't the issue. The motor whine from the drive motor is a deal breaker for me. There is no reason for it to be so loud (it isn't that loud on the other models or other brands). I was considering buying this mower as I like the power and aluminum deck, so hopefully this issue is resolved, otherwise I will pass on it.

@frankwoodbery2473 5 месяцев назад

Yes, it's not the overall volume but the high frequency pitch of the engaged self propelled system is super irritating. I doubt the Milwaukee or Makita is anything like that.

@robertk1726 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate your EGO reviews. I ordered the SNT2405 snow blower a few months ago (because of that... over halfway through winter and not a single snow yet!). I just ordered the LM2206SP a couple weeks ago too. I agree it isn't nearly as loud as my old Honda. I also completely understand that kind of noise can be very annoying to some. The propel system does sound like the battery cars kids ride around their yard. I'm not a fan of the sound myself, but will definitely be keeping the mower. Maybe growing up as a farm kid with tractors and gas engines makes me think of battery as "lessor than", but over the past couple years I've been making the switch to battery on my yard tools and saws. If I'm being honest... they aren't cheaper but they are every bit as powerful and sometimes... much easier to deal with. Thanks again for your review!

For anyone wondering like I was, the Ego Commercial model LMX5300E does not have the loud self propelled noise. It has some noise but nothing you can hear with the blade on. Much less than on my 2156.

@randomrazr 3 месяца назад

would u get the commercial ego over the metal one in the video?

@MrMike-fn4hi 3 месяца назад

@@randomrazr It depends. The commercial mower does not come with batteries or a charger. I have several 12 and 10ah batteries so buying a bare tool was not an issue for me. If you don't have the batteries and are just using it residentially I can't rationalize the cost of the commercial mower plus batteries and a charger. If you do have them I feel it is a better machine. Larger motor 14.8 ft lbs, dual batteries, larger metal wheels, better self propelled system, more sturdy handle system, and I prefer the speed adjuster on it. I do like touch drive vs the bail, I think it's faster to push a button vs pulling a bail. I'm not 100% on all the differences. EGO says their commercial lines do not share a single part with their residential despite looking similar but without tearing them both down I can't say for sure. If you have the batteries for sure buy the commercial machine, if not, get the LM2206SP and I'm sure it will do the job. The LMX5300SP is like the LM2206SP turned to 11. Do you NEED it... nah... do you want it... absolutely.

@MrMike-fn4hi 2 месяца назад

@@shanew7361 Yes, they are a single. What makes you think a single blade does a bad job? That is 100% marketing. You will not find dual blades on anything commercial because it negatively affects lift and durability with no proven improvement in cut if the deck is engineered properly. A 90k Toro grounds machine doesn't need it to cut a golf course so I think I'm ok with a single too. I prefer more lift and a more stout blade. Yes the handles only fold at the base so it will take up more space when stored. This is because most failures are within the wiring and switches on the folding handles so they eliminated that failure point. I think you are trying to compare a machine built for commercial use to a residential one. They are built for different uses. 1 focuses on features and space saving and the other on power, runtime and durability. If you are using it residentially then you really have to weigh the pros and cons of each. I am of the you get what you pay for camp and so far 0 complaints with the commercial unit. One interesting thing I have noticed. With last years touch drive I would use 1.5-2 10ah batteries to cut my yard and I would push it. With this unit on turbo, using self propelled and the same 10ah batteries I only use 30% of each. Either the motor is far more efficient or pulling from both batteries is easier on them and they loose less capacity to heat. After running on turbo both batteries are room temp. The other mower they would get noticeably warm. Perhaps this will help extend their life but 100% just my opinion. Last consideration would be availability. Last I checked the commercial units were on back order till the middle or end of June.. either way you will be getting a good machine. If the extra power, runtime and durability are important to you go commercial. If not, save the money and go residential.

Another great video Steve. I'd probably hit the fence when in turbo :) I wear my ballistic earmuffs when mowing already, so a little whining won't bother me if it's got lower db noise than gas. With that much power though you would think they could make at least a 32" commercial walk behind mower.

Great video and I love the detailed reviews. Every 3db increase means a doubling in power of the sound wave. The results show 4 to 8x increase( and in some cases 16x). Technically that is a large increase. I think the polycarbonate deck provides more noise isolation and the motor on the 2206 is more powerful and may generate more noise.

@jamesw7993 17 дней назад

I have had both of these mowers. I returned the plastic deck for the aluminum deck. The aluminum deck is a little louder, but a way better machine. The whine is annoying, honestly, it seems like this could be engineered to be quieter. But not a deal breaker. In reality, it sounds almost exactly like a power wheels ride-on car that 5 year olds ride around on down the street. That sound makes it feel kind of cheap to me, when the rest of the mower looks and sounds solid. But again, it pulls me up a hill far steeper than the near flat slope Ego says to never go beyond , so it works… until I turn it off when someone walks by because it sounds like a kids toy.

@stevmstng5165 2 месяца назад

Had to return mine today. On my second cut the transmission started making a clunking sound. I knew the whine of the transmission on the first day was going to be an issue. It wasn’t a constant loud whine but sounded like a noise something would make on its way out. And good luck trying to call ego. I was on the phone for ever and even if you request a call back which they eventually did they just let my phone ring once and then they hung up. This way so they can close it out and move on to the next caller. 1200 dollars and I wanted it so bad to work. Their lack of customer service sealed the deal for me.

@americandude3825 3 месяца назад

I just got the 2206 aluminum deck model for $1200 with the 10 amp battery and fast charger from Lowe’s. With the Ego deal, I got a “free” 5 amp hour battery also. It is much quieter IMO than my Honda HRX217. However, the self propelled mode is why it whines. If you just push, or push slow, there is no high pitch whine. Of course, The battery hardly drained at all doing my front yard which is a little less than 1/4 of an acre. I also got their aluminum weed eater and edger - separately. Not the changeable head set. It was less expensive to buy separate because the weed eater came with a charger and battery. So I got that and the edger for $179 each. But the edger was bare tool. The other option was buy the edger and the extra weed trimmer attachment which would have been $179 and $139 with no battery or charger…so that’s why I went the route with the aluminum trimmer on sale for $179 from $219. So, I paid $1504.35 for the new mower, weed eater, edger, 10 amp battery, 5 amp battery, 2.5 amp battery, fast charger and a normal charger. Note: I got 10% off for being a veteran

@k.squared 5 месяцев назад

80 db is two times louder to humans than 70 db (correction: it seems the more correct difference would actually be whopping 10 times louder; feel free to correct me). 3 db difference in this context would be, what, twice as loud? In other words, 80+ is, in fact, loud and the difference between the two here was very substantial. Personally, I found both to be very loud, but perhaps the power is, indeed, superior.

Our older EGO backend tends to lift up a little bit when the self propel is engaged even at slow speeds. Does the new aluminum one have this problem?

@TechMadeEzy 2 месяца назад

No not for me

The whine probably is worse due to resonating thru the aluminum body. In order to have a strong reliable gear drive it will be noisy

So I want a new EGO mower for another property.....currently have a LM2150SP XP Select Cut. But need another mower...question is - is the LM2206SP have a better cut and worth the price hike over the LM2156sp? I do bag so I know on the LM2206SP I would also have to buy the high lift blade as it does not come with it.🤔

@TechMadeEzy 3 месяца назад

Hi Rich, So first impressions The Aluminum deck model is definitely heavier noticeably heavier if weight isn't an issue I can't speak to cutting yet I'm working on some videos now. As far as the high lift blade what I would do is check with ego because they were including a sheet in the Box saying if you register the mower Within a certain period of time you would get a free high lift blade. That's what I had to do in order to get the blade sent to me good luck stay in touch let me know what you end up doing

Can you review the new commercial version, lmx5300sp? That is supposed to be the most powerful push mower on the market. Thanks!

@TechMadeEzy 4 месяца назад

I'm planning on it but we will see I'm trying to work on my budget and things are getting expensive

@dnairish 5 месяцев назад

Saw some reviews on Lowes about the whine and people returning the mower because of it. I don't think it's about the overall loudness, I think the louder high pitch whine is what people are having issues with. High pitch whines like that can be very irritating compared to louder lower pitch noises.

@TechMadeEzy 5 месяцев назад

Maybe , that’s valid and I understand that point

@jharv62301 5 месяцев назад

The self propel motor sounds the same (albeit annoying) to me.

@richardrussell5128 5 месяцев назад

You don't hear that while in use with grass.

@louisjimenez1230 5 месяцев назад

Oddly mine isn't very loud definitely cannot be heard over 2 and turbo mode on the blade speed. I will say the mower comes poorly packaged for a 1200 usd product and could see them being easily damaged during shipping.

@thamadrabbit2979 5 месяцев назад

The the self propel make that noise when it is off?

@louisjimenez1230 5 месяцев назад

@thamadrabbit2979 no only engine noise when self propelled is not engaged.

@jamesba-xd7xf 5 месяцев назад

a 75DBA average VS 78DBA average is double the sound energy, BUT it doesnt sound twice as loud to your ear, BUT the quieter one is half as hard on your hearing as the louder one. my honda registers 90DBA at that same position!. 90DBA is 16 times the sound energy as 78DBA!. 78DBA is safe sound exposure up to 4 hours a day, 90DBA is safe ONLY for up to 15 minutes!, beyond these numbers and you risk hearing loss. I NEVER operate a mower or string trimmer without earplugs.

@thamadrabbit2979 5 месяцев назад

Is the noise still there when the touch drive is off?

@TechMadeEzy 5 месяцев назад

Hi yes when the blade is spinning, it’s going to have some noise again. It just depends on how sensitive you are to noise.

@Sir_Mack 4 месяца назад

Man i want this so bad, but i just cant with that whining sound! Also hear that the blade is not 22" either. Ive had my ego mower for about 4 years now and was really interested in the aluminum deck but im out with that drive system. Wish they would sell this mower without the drive system. I seriously dont understand why you need one anyway its not like these mowers are hard to push.

@Los714 5 месяцев назад

I hear a screeching sound. Do all ego mowers make that sound?

@TechMadeEzy 5 месяцев назад

Most make a sound but it's not annoying from my experience but people are saying this one is definitely louder

@TechMadeEzy Steve, one guy was saying that the high pitch gearbox whine in the new 2206 was of the old speed IQ models? Another guy said that his new commercial version of the 2206 didn't have the shreaky whine. You have a speed IQ. Any truth to this do ya think? If so, that gives us hope that once they run out of those gear boxes, we can get a 2206 without the excessive whine. Thoughts? Thanks

@TechMadeEzy 5 месяцев назад

I would say this new model is louder but still not so loud that I would return it based on a first impression. Still winter so I can’t use it to cut grass yet.

@davidmcgee2126 4 месяца назад

More annoying than louder? I watch my neighbors mow with their electric (wimpy unknown brands) mowers and am jealous of how quiet they are I plan on getting an ego push mower. About 1/3 acre lot. Was intrigued by the new bigger more powerful one but I don’t know if that whine would be any better than my gas I’m not mowing a weed patch so probably don’t need the extra torque and the price difference is significant The 2156 sounds 😂 like a better pick

@johnmoore5478 5 месяцев назад

These mowers are so light, the self-propelled feature is silly. I have the 2015 LM2000-S and it still does a great job of cutting and mulching. The original battery just quit charging in November. I bought the second generation for my business property and it has an one inch wider cut, and a better design for disassembly. Otherwise, they are the same. I cut about half an acre at the highest setting. One thing I learned is, the high-lift/bagging blade cuts and mulches much better than the mulching blade. If you like to cut your lawn very short, the mulching blade may work better. I do not know because I would never do that. Regardless, these mowers are very quiet compared to gas engines. The problem is that they offer fewer push models each year.

@cleysoptique8749 4 месяца назад

its louder beaucse it has more power... simple math. the old one has less torque and less blade rpm

man the sound on that self-propelled on the new one is absolutely unbearable. ty god i didn't buy one yet and i was just looking around first. it's not the fact that it is louder but the pitch of the wine for my ears is unbearable. I can't stand it if feel like someone is using nails on a chalkboard

@MrHitthespot 5 месяцев назад

82 decibels is much louder than 72. 82 is definitely approaching hearing loss at sustained exposure. I just bought a new 2156 yesterday because of the great deal I received. The Ego 2156 I purchased surprised me. It was louder than I thought it would be. Having said that, it was still much quieter than my gas Toro. I have at least 6-8 weeks here before the grass starts growing and I have a chance to use it to cut, but like I said, I couldn’t pass up the great deal offered this month. Lowe’s is offering 100 dollars off 849. Plus if you take out a credit card with them you receive a 20% off voucher upto $100. That brought it down to 649. Ego is offering a Free 5AH battery that Lowe’s is honoring right at the store. So I got an additional $299.00 battery for free, with the included 10AH battery in the box. I was going to buy the Milwuakee but at 1099 for that, I couldn’t pass this deal up.

@chrism8013 5 месяцев назад

That whiny pitch is absolutely horrendous. Sounds like a child's toy car, and fingernails on a chalkboard. Love EGO hand tools, but the mowers are nuts with those sounds.

@pagodad8079 4 месяца назад

Of course it’s not louder than a gasser but it’s actually more painful to listen to. Awful sounding drive on both of them. And this new one is over 1000 dollars! Sounds like one of those annoying power wheels rich kids get for their birthday. I’d be that annoying neighbor if I owned one of these. No thanks. Gotta look into the toro 60v super recycler I guess.
