Floating decks are pretty much standard on riding mowers for the reason you explain. To protect the blades by making the deck following the contours of the terrain. Some rattling is pretty much unavoidable unless you have a totally flat lot.
So I just traded my Z6 Zero Turn for a T6. The mower is great for what I need however there is a lot of “play” in the steering wheel making an awful clacking noise. I was wondering if it was assembled incorrectly or missing a bushing or something. Also, I can slightly “lift up” on the steering wheel and hear the same metal clanking noise. All bolts appear to be tightened. Does your mower make this noise and can also feel it in the steering, especially on bumpy lawns. And before anyone asks, it’s not the deck that has its own acceptable noises. Any feedback would be appreciated!
I would contact Ego and put in a ticket and have them come check it. If it is new, then I would bring that back to where you got it, it clearly is not working right.
I have this mower. The steering system just has a lot of play, and clanking noise is part of the deal. I'm not thrilled with that issue, but I still like the mower.
How fast can it go. I am starting a lawn care business but my zero turn just stopped working and we can’t seem to get it working so I am looking for a new mower and with it being that quite and looks pretty nice
As SHOCKED as I'm to admit it, but I would actually consider one these cordless mowers or whatever we're calling them 😆. My lawn is too rough right now, and it'll take a couple of seasons before I get everything flat. But at that point I 'might' consider one of these.
How come all the reviews of this tractor are by guys who grass is so short it should be a golf course and hence doesn't need cut. How well does it cut 4-6" high tall fescue the world wants to know?
I'm kinda thinking that the deck on a gas tractor makes just as much noise, if not more, than the Ego. The difference is that with a gas tractor, THE TRACTOR IS SO F%CKING LOUD THAT YOU CAN'T HEAR THE DECK AT ALL!!! I'm still a little astounded that dude here is driving a TRACTOR... and you can't hear anything. 😂🤣😂
Exactly! With a gas mower, the engine noise and your earplugs drown out the rattling the deck is making. This thing is so quiet, the deck noise is amplified. Wear some earplugs if it bothers you, and you'll be fine.
That is how ALL decks are. Just easier to hear with a quiet mower. Completely normal.

Thanks for the comment.
It's also meant to help avoid scalping the lawn when you're going over uneven terrain
I am the person on Reddit that was asking about the deck noise and I really appreciate you making the video.
I hope it helped. :)
No gas engine running + deck nosie = much quitter!
I find it funny when you have it at the highest speed setting, it sounds like an air raid siren lol

It goes faster than my old John Deer, I been impressed with the speed.
There is a higher blade speed you have to hold the blade speed button down
I will try that out, thanks
Great video man
Thank you
Its the bumpy lawn why it rattles!! A gas mower drowns that out!!
my gas tractor rattles just as much.

Thanks for your comment.
It ain’t an EV lmao it’s damn good
It would be great with their LFP batteries, not sure about the lithium ion battery, life it's only about 500 cycles vs 2000 for the LFP.
Why didnt you show your giant sculpture at the back?

I did a first cut video with the grass over 4inches and wet.

@@irhoghead7 kind of jazzed - i was watching these because i was considering one. Went to Lowes this morning, be here next wednesday. Fingers crossed
@@cajunvol882 I think you will like it!
no louder than any other mower
That’s just because you don’t hear an engine.
Who even cares about the "deck rattle". Im more concerned about how loud the mower itself is
this video covered that.
Really? Deck rattle? 😂
Not really
battery mowers suck and are crap and a lie
Roma’s, you need to throw in a couple of reasons and examples why you think battery mowers suck.
Do you know from experience?
ok boomer
They're fine
😂 aww is your gas mower scared?
