    After weeks of watching reviews and researching battery mowers, I think this video helped me make my decision on my next mower for next year, when I retire my 14 year old Honda. Having Milwaukee tools already is also a bonus. I mulch so the cheap bag is a non issue and when I make my first round by the fence, I go the opposite way you were going, so also a non-issue.

    Good video for the mower. I would like Ginja's opinion if this mower is good enough for me to switch over from a EGO mower (21 inch self-propelled) select cut model?
    I live in the Pacific Northwest (WA) on a 3/4 acre lot with a mostly Perennial Ryegrass lawn, during the growing season I find myself mowing every 2 to 3 days and if rain keeps me from mowing, I'll find myself mowing down very tall grass as they grow super fast. The EGO is ok, but it has a few weakness which I hope this mower can address:
    1. Light and easily dulled/dented blade. I believe it is by design to keep weight down and battery life longer, but if you mow wet grass the blade will be dulled easily, and if you hit a small twig it tends to get dented. Appreciate if you can comment on the blade of this Milwaukee mower.
    2. Deck cleaning. Due to the battery nature of the EGO, I cannot hose off the deck after mowing, especially when I am forced to cut wet grass and get a mess on the deck. Is the Milwaukee design good enough that its deck can handle being hosed off for cleaning?
    Thanks.

    • @PestandLawnGinja
      @PestandLawnGinja  15 дней назад

      Time will tell. What i did like, to compare, the blade speed appears to be faster at start and also running. I have zero proof of this but just what it feels like. I also thought cut quality was better, but again time will tell. The amount of space it will mow is slightly more than the ego. I forgot to mention in the videos this mower is equiped with 4 led's for night mowing. I use these machines before i like to give official reviews.
      1. as of now i can't comment on the blade longevity. currently using it and will have an answer later in the season.
      2. this milwaukee is a steel deck and was easy to clean. I'm a big fan of steel decks over the plastic decks.

    Ginja, love your content.; even if this brings the haters out of the cracks! You will probably have many gas die hards discount this video. Those folks are NOT the target customers for battery tools. (I am a gas die hard) That being said I think battery powered equipment is more attractive for those who don't like to do yard work and just want as little trouble as possible. I do think that over the long haul gas is probably less expensive due to expensive batteries but who knows? Paying $500 for replacement batteries every 5 years vs. 2 tune ups at $150 per pop plus gas and oil. I guess I probably spend less than $20 on mower gas per year using ethanol free stuff? My dad and sister have the Ego stuff and I much prefer my Stihl 2 strokes and Honda HRC. Yet my dad and my sister like the Ego stuff. They don't like the fumes and hassle of gas. It is good to have choices!

    • @Prototheria
      @Prototheria 4 дня назад +1

      Cost of the batteries is the price you pay for not having to fuck around with a gas engine. I love me some internal combustulation, and I love me some yard work, but I see outdoor power equipment as being just another set of appliances, so why not make them as easy to use as possible? I mean, you can still find working antique gas powered washing machines, but I'd bet money you have an electric washing machine in your house. ;)

    • @lazylearner967
      @lazylearner967 3 дня назад

      @@Prototheria I see your point and agree to some extent. I am certainly not against battery stuff and progression. I need to try more brands than just Ego as that is only the battery stuff I have used. I don't like the way Ego feels compared to my gas stuff. Also the Ego blower chews through batteries like none other. I think its battery lasts 10ish minutes which isn't usually a big deal unless it's fall time and you are trying to clean up leaves. Also, my family members aren't too good about keeping their batteries charged so I run out of juice when I am mowing/trimming their property.

      I would agree with your take on this mower. Dec 2022 I saw it on clearance for $600 at my local home depot. Thought the same as you mentioned about the cost of batteries and charger, said at $600 that is like getting the batteries and changer at discount and getting mower for free. So i picked it up to do my daughter's lawn. Mower is very good. I'd agree with the height of cut lever too. Many times it has dropped down and I have cut way to low. The bag I don't use that much so can't say one way or the other about that.

      @@juhs Just because the parent company owns those tool mfg's doesn't mean they're all made to the same standards on the same assembly line. The R's are pricepoint engineered tools that sacrifice some performance for the sake of a lower price for the home gamers or folks that just can't afford Milwaukee. Hell, I've seen a lot of guys in big shops using Bauer and Hercules because they can't swing the Snap On bill. Or they like that it's cheaper to toss a $125 Hercules impact gun after two or three years than it is to pay off a $1000 Snap On for the rest of your life. Or all they're doing is running lug nuts all day at a tire shop and don't need a gun that'll start a Detroit. Figure, if it didn't make money, you wouldn't see it on the shelf.
