9/22/23 just picked one of these up at Home Depot for $499!!!! I thought it was a mistake, but nope they let me leave with it for $499 and $75 for a 3 year warranty😮
It would’ve been nice had you of attempted an audio with the mower to somewhat hear the decibel difference between it compared to a gas mower! With that said thanks for the video.👍🏻
Thanks for that feedback. Didn't think of that. What I can tell you is the difference is night and day.
he has to have the music playing all the time. this video is not supposed to inform you. it's supposed to entertain you and then you're supposed to just go out and buy this mower without even thinking about it
@@mrbubetube I mean you could go do that if you want to but it's supposed to just introduce you to the product and that it's available so you can do further research on your own. You're the only one who knows whether or not a product is going to work for you and the demands you have.
@@MrFixItDIY This video mostly introduced me to loud hard computerized music (which kept me constantly distracted through the whole video), a fast talking pitch man, and a camera man who likes to show off his fast sweeping moves and quick cut video editing skills. I shouldn't have to do further research on this lawn mower. If I have to do further research on my own then this video was a waste of my time, wasn't it? If this product is not important enough for you to turn the fucking music off and clearly deliver good solid complete information to the viewer, then it's not important enough for me to research it either.
Electric motorcycle video reviews are the same way. We don't want to hear that music. Having a sound level meter is a great idea.
A few comments, now that I've owned the mower for two years.
1. the charge port needs to be completely closed before the mower will start.
2. you can't touch the forward/reverse pedal (right foot) when pushing down the brake pedal with your left foot to allow starting. Also after a year, I had to slightly depress reverse to get it to start - it turns out there is a calibration procedure to fix this (I searched for "cub cadet cc30e pedal calibration" in google search).
3. You must be seated to start.
4. The "can cut in reverse" mode button takes pressing for 3 seconds to engage, but slips out of the mode if the mower is stopped. I wish I could permanently enable this mode during a session.
5. The differential on the rear is nice for tight circles, but there is no differential lock, so if a rear wheel gets off the ground, you won't move.
6. I often get temporary "Cut Deck Overload" messages for heavier work, which means you have to be patient, or turn the key off and on again to resume operation.
7. The mower status messages are displayed on a LCD with no back lighting, so it can be hard to see indoors, or in your shadow outside. I carry a flashlight to help. Some of the status messages are 2-liners, and the font is then very small, and requires younger eyes to see. If you get out of the seat to read them, the mower switches itself off, so tough luck. The battery level is shown by a bar of LEDs, and is fine for all light conditions.
Would you buy it again?
I liked the video. Right to the point. Awesome review!!!!
Your brother must love it when you test mowers @ his house. Good review!
Yes he does!
@MrFixItDIY Hi, how do you clean the mower deck after moist grass builds up on it, can you remove the mower deck and spray it with a hose or do you need to keep it dry?
I just bought a CC30E. Love it. But when the cutter is engaged, it is so quiet. I can sneak up on my dog, or grandchildren around a corner. I added a small electric horn, running off some penlight batteries, with a push button in the yellow plastic cowling below the steering wheel. Cost me about $7. Parts from eBay. I can beep before I come around a corner to warn them, and beep and wave at my neighbors who are on their gas mowers. Did whole 1/2 acre on 2 bars of the meeter.
2 years later, would you buy it again?
I just crossed into the battery powered push mower scene, I have to say I’m highly impressed that it number one ,cut the first season grass of thick clumps and tall grass with ease. Giving my gas powered mower to my son
you seriously didnt share a live video of how it sounds in your review? i mean, what you said was important....but id rather have some more "live hands-on" segments. sigh.
J'ai fait l'achat d'un tracteur CC30E de Cuba Cadet en septembre 2020. J'ai fait la tonte de ma pelouse environ 15 fois de septembre 2020 à juillet 2021 et j'ai dû faire environ 8 tontes avec ma tondeuse de 21 po. électrique. Le tracteur a été au garage à 2 reprises pendant 3 semaines parce qu'il y avait un module programmable, relié à la pédale de rouler, faisait défaut ; ceci empêchait de démarrer le tracteur. Alors, faites votre opinion.
Thanks a lot for your upload! Do you know how this or the larger version (LT42E) does going straight up inclines, compared to a gas powered mower? Cub Cadet we’re not very helpful with that question.
Hello Do you recommend a coating be applied to the undercarriage of the lawn mower prior to use and followed each use after such as ceramic coating or Mo-Deck to limit grass adherence? Thank you.
Could you tell me How to do for cleaning underground around the lame after I finish cutting . Thank you. The machine is heavy. Can I Push on one
Thanks for a great review. Considering this machine. How has the battery been? That is the biggest replacement expense that is inevitable, hopefully later than sooner.
You’ll notice a degradation of power range over time based on usage and charging habits.
…you can expect 10 years of virtually zero maintenance with a battery replacement almost costing the amount of a new club cadet. Riding gas mowers are about the same pain in rear, except you have to follow a decent maintenance schedule to make it a full 10 years without spending money when it breaks down because you forgot to winterize it. 🤠
The key to choosing an electric mower is make sure it says "lithium" as far as battery type. Do not get the ones with the "sealed lead acid" or "sla" type. Lead acid batteries are lucky to last maybe 5 years. Lithium is the way to go👍
@@roadrunnerorange I have to disagree. I have an Ego mower, blower and trimmer (each came with their own batteries). I've had to take advantage of the 3 year warranty on the 5.0 Ah battery for the mower (will eventually cost $400 to replace since no warranty on the replacement). The battery for the trimmer failed just after the warranty. The remaining battery works some days and others it goes to red immediately, only for it to work the next day. There's a reason there's a 3 year warranty on their lithium ion batts. They fail long before they should, considering how much they cost. I have a 3rd of an acre with a decent sized home on it so even less of a yard to maintain. Love the tools though.
I wish it still came with armrest on the 2021 model.
I tried to move mine in the garage last night and did that and then I was going to take it out front for a few minutes. I could not disengage the blades from running. Where is the engage disengage switch for the blades? I have used it before - but went blank tonight. Love it - older disabled and I can do the front yard at my farm easy, the back yard a little more difficult - not as level.
HELP!
Can the battery be removed from the mower? Plan to store the mower in a shed from Nov to April. There are no heat or electrical outlet in the shed. Winter months can be cold in Connecticut. Easier if the battery can be removed and keep in garage for charging.
do you have video adding a 30in bagger to this equipment
A common complaint with the electric push mowers (like the Ego) is it doesn't have enough lift or "suck" for heavy grass or Fall leaves. How is the power?
My Greenworks has no problem with wet grass. My neighbor has an Ego and he seems to get it done too. My Greenworks has more power though. It's 80v. There should be plenty of 80v mowers on the market by now.
Mine come in the crate Easy assembly. Once off the crate just put gas in and go. Very smooth operation. I love the deck height control. Very simple and flawless.
Some reason this model is more expensive then the XT1, which I’ll need anyway for my 1.5 acres. Thanks for discussing lot size requirements and blade size!
How to get access to the deck to scrape grass build up and to remove and sharpen blades?
Who has a suspension on a lawnmower?? Let some air out of the tires or upgrade the ass gasket!!! GEEEZ
Had to return mine because of electrical ptoblems. Only ran for two hours . Junk
I was getting ready to purchase a CC30e cub cadet electric riding mower until I spoke to an authorized dealer who told me the cost to replace a battery is about $1350., they will last about 7 years, and you need 2. That's a total cost of about $2700. You can buy a new machine for that amount. I thought they had only one battery, but the dealer told me they have 2. I was totally floored when he told me this.
The LiFePo4 batteries should last about 2000 full charge/discharge cycles, so that could be a lot longer than 7 years if you use it once a week. Using it professionally, yes I could see the batteries lasting only a few years.
@@isovideo7497 Most people in the northeast mow their grass about 32 times a year. That's 62 years worth of mowing.
I wonder if it has enough power to pull an aerator
you said your brother yard was the upper limit... how big is that in square feet/ sq.ft ?
Thanks, I'm almost sold on either this one or its Craftsman counterpart
I think Craftsman and Cub are basically the same mower from the same source. Take a look at the Ryobi which might be too large but is a bit more sophisticated and not substantially more. Good Luck.
@@ralph3728 The Ryobi isn’t a lithium ion battery though, so it won’t last as long.
Oh man i look forward to all these are electric. There is way to much pulleys and belts on ordinary riding mowers. Even a hybrid unit would be cool where the blades would be driven by electric power but driven by a petrol driven generator.
Can someone who is about 6'2" tall use this mower comfortably?
Getting error code E108 on my CC30E mower. Will not start. Only headlight works. It stopped suddenly while mowing. Only 3.9 hours. Under warranty thankfully, but does anyone know what this error code is? Model "33AA27JDB10" Cant find anything on this error code. Any help would be great.
How much does it cost now in 2022/2023?
I have a Cub Cadet electric mower. I also have about an acre size lawn and the mower's battery gage has never slipped below 100% while mowing! I love it but I'm having a heck of a time finding information about storing the batteries for winter and the nights are already getting down until the 40s. I don't a a clue how to remove them and someone suggested I put them back in the mower a couple times during winter and give them a quick charge up. Any idea how to get the batteries out, if it's necessary? Tahnks. By the way, because so many people mentioned it, my mower is silent until the blade is engaged and then it's no louder than any other mower. It's great riding around the yard without the sound of a combustion engine.
Battery has a temperature sensor won't let you use it if it's too cold also lithium likes being half charged in storage
@@rogerkerkmannThank you but it's not Lithium. It's a gel acid battery 12v
Price?
I would love to know how the mower performs on slopes and uneven ground... I use a self propelled electric mower, and walk behind it mowing about 4 acres, and all of it is on a slope. Also, what if you go over something, like a branch - would it tip over easily? These have just shown up here in Australia - I'm wondering if I would be better waiting for something more 4WD.... or could I put better wheels/tyres on the CC30e? Questions because I love the idea of this....
If you are turning and going up at the same time, it sort of stops - so, you have to straighten out and maybe go back in the other direction.
MrFixit, that's a pretty slick video. The price of EM is way too high for me and there aren't enough used ones out there yet to take advantage of or maybe people just aren't selling them after the new wears off. There's got to be some down-side to these besides the price. How long before the batteries need to be replaced and how much? I worked on a golf course and all the mowers had reels. To me, the best mowing solution would be electric tractor with reels. It would be a lot less noise and a much better cut. I don't like noisy machines, do you? That's why I don't own a motorcycle or a gun. Do they make electric guns?
Here's one thing I'm curious on, can you charge it by using a solar power station?
I don't see why it wouldn't be possible if you had a power bank that had a 110v outlet on it that was charged via solar.
I'd like to say thank you to cub cadet too, please send me one, a walk behind. Since power won't be wasted on a rider, they can make the cut width wider!
I was looking at this machine but am hesitant as I have as from the back to the front of my home, is 10 feet of a rise over about 30 feet as I have a walkout. Lot is about 1/4 acre. The steep hill is about 10 feet wide. The balance of my back yard, approximately 80 ft by 70 feet, also drops another 6 feet to one corner such that half the time, one is going to be on an uphill grade. Using a self propelled mower it takes about 45 minutes to cut. Anything larger than 30 inches would be too large. Question is, will the grade kill the battery before it finishes? I am 6 ft 250 pounds so it is also going to be carrying a bit of a load. At 72, with developing leg issues I was interested, but the sales guy at a farm dealer was not sure if it "would make the grade". I also have some 13 Maple trees, so would want a bagger to manage the leaves in the fall. Your comments please
This is the exact same mower as the Craftsman E-150, but usually slightly cheaper.
Yes. Craftsman, Cub Cadet, and many other company names are actually all owned by MTD so most of them are the exact same machines under the plastic coverings, colors, and stickers.
Some how I need a way to take a nap 😴 on the lawnmower so help me out people
It looks like his brother already mowed his yard before he got there.
4 days earlier Larry
Why does all the lawn mower commercials always mow yards that are not even ready to mow and flat ground
Have you tried cutting grass with it???
how much is a new battery?
Probably more than the mower is worth by the time the battery needs replacing.
You probably just need to charge it but who knows not unless if the video said something about that but my phone was also on mute so yeah
3 year warranty but the replacement set of batteries will cost you $800.
Oh yeah, they usually last 5-6 years before replacements are needed.
This is physically the same as the Craftsman E150 and it costs more.
Cubcadet CC30 - $2800
Craftsman E150 - $2500
The Craftsman E150 uses cheaper (and more dangerous) Lithium batteries.
The Cub Cadet cc30E uses the safer LiFePO4 battery technology. A lawnmower fire during a high fire danger season could be a very bad thing!
22 hours and it broke down
This is just an ad people!
Hey MrFixIt DIY, how about answering all of the valid questions people are asking in the comments???
Nice to take a payment from cub cadete for advertising but it seems you don’t know much about this mower if you can’t even help people with their questions about it👎🏻
This video is one of MANY videos I have and is also YEARS old. I do not have the time or resources to comb through every comment to answer every question. I'm just one guy and I do my best.
DO NOT BUY THIS MOWER!! Battery died after 2 years and although under warranty there are no battery replacements available. Terrible customer service. Very user unfriendly and it's not the dealer. It's Cub Cadet itself. Yeah, no maintenance if it doesn't work... I have been without a mower for weeks now. What good is a warranty if there are no replacement parts?
Music ruins this video... too loud. Also, stamped steel for the axle? Weak Cub Cadet.
A perfect shill video. This gives _no_ data to a real human. These are data points for salesmen to spew. This is a sales video. You've never even sat on one, have you?
Quit. Taking. Corporate. Payments.
Half the fun of mowing is the sound of the engine. This looks like a mobility scooter.
This isn't a corvette. No one is impressed with the sound of your 2 stroke.
