What an increditble presentation....this guy's a professional. Just received my EGO z6 5207 this morning and after a quick review of the manual decided to look on KZfaq for someone who could explain some of the key elements and I think this video covers all the key items. Will bookmark this review Thank you Tim Johnson! 5 stars!

EGO has a great property management system with using the same battery for everyone of their tools. I love the brand. ❤❤

The best review I’ve heard so far on the ego mower. I have read and listen to over 30 reviews and I really enjoyed this one Thank you!

I got one right when they came out. This is the best review of this mower I’ve seen. Everything that was said is accurate.

Straight up no nonsense review. Well reviewed and good info. Thanks.

Technology has advanced so much in recent years! Incredible times we live in! Thanks for the review!

Great review and very accurate... I've had this same mower for a little over a month, and I love it. It completely changes the "mowing experience". My only issue is I can't get the EGO app to connect to the mower via bluetooth (for firmware updates). I've tried multiple Android and iOS devices and worked with EGO Support, sent them screen shots, etc. They haven't gotten back with me after a couple weeks, but since my machine is working normally, it's not a big deal yet. I suspect the app may need an update to be able to recognize the 12 amp hour batteries, which is what the 52" comes with. Update: within a couple weeks, the Ego app was updated and I've been able to connect and update firmware without an issue since then.

I think one thing to keep in perspective with the pricing of this mower is that those batteries are $600 EACH at Lowes and if you are a prosumer DIY yard worker without a huge field to mow, you've got those batteries with plenty of juice left to use with the rest of their tools to do all the rest of the yard work like edging, bush trimming, blowing, chainsaw, etc.

I love all my Ego stuff. Haven't used gasoline tools in 3 years now. The gear is solid and reliable. I had one battery die on me 3 years into the warranty and just swapped it at the dealer. No questions asked. Best service of any tool company I've used before.

Excellent video. The best I've seen yet on this mower. Thanks!

I am hoping EGO comes out with some kind of farm ATV to replace my old workhorse Quad runner. I even thought this mower might work as it comes with a hitch in the back. Just tired of messing with spark plug, fumes, starter, noise, muffler and would like a quiet ATV for the acreage, just jump on and go. That would complete a terrific lineup of tools in my mind.

I have had a 21inch EGO push mower for 8 years now, Still with the original battery and never a single problem, the guy next door is on his third petrol mower in the same period. I also have solar power so Zero running costs apart from the original purchase

Excellent,excellect review ! Thanks so much.

The fact they even make this is really cool.

I honestly dont think I've EVER thought a sports mode would be on a LAWN MOWER!!

You mentioned that you wouldn't use this as a commercial mower, but (forgive my ignorance here) what are the types of things you look for in a commercial mower? Is it size, build quality, or reliance on batteries maybe? Thanks for the video!

Incredible review

How long is the warranty for the batteries, how many hours of run time in 6" high grass and finally what is the current cost for each battery?

Another question I have. How easy is it to remove the mower deck, and then put it back on, so that blades can be removed and sharpened?

Thanks for the great review! Now in a few years if they come up with a GPS model that self cuts, I can spend my time how I want, instead of cutting grass!

Great review. Some pretty nice features on it. Love that all in one charging. Now.... I have to admit I think I had a semi heart attack when you raised that cover. 6 Ego batteries!!! On top of that they're the 12 AH which to be honest I didn't even know they had which made me have a second heart attack. I love my couple EGO devices and I love that they have stayed true about the same battery on every device unlike other companies which shall remain nameless. I just can't fully commit to EGO because of the battery cost. Besides this item most of their devices are throw away if the battery dies. Meaning you're better off just buying an entire new unit instead of just a new battery. For this device that is $3600 in batteries with only a 5 year warranty. I'm a home user and I think I'll stick with my Toro zero turn. I have had it for 12 years and [knock on wood] have never had an issue. The EGO batteries could die in 6 years and you're buying new batteries not to mention EGO could change their batteries and they're not longer purchasable in 6 years. I would love to walk out and just start my mower like I do my blower and chainsaw but not at this price. Thanks for the review.

Awesome review and awesome mower. Can’t wait for you to review the new Ryobi 80v ZTR. Would also love it if you compared the new Ryobi, to the EGO, and a conventional ZTR. Two thoughts though, first; that USB port is weak sauce, and second: sport mode?! Really? What’s next? Launch control, and 1/4 mile times?

I’ve heard some complaints about deck rattle. I think I heard it in your video as well. How noticeable is it? I also wanted to know if it does a good striping pattern. Some zero turns do that better than others. Thx for the very thorough review

Quick question. My Z6 was delivered with zero charge so it was stuck in my driveway until I could find a heavy-duty extension cord. Is it standard for the mower to come with no charge or does it come with a charge?

Will you review this mower vs the new Ryobi please. I have the 42” EGO ZTR with over 100 flawless hours and am thinking of going slightly larger on the next one.

How is this thing on hills? I've got a sloped back yard with a slight gradient, nothing crazy but definitely would need some traction and power.

How well will a bladeMotor Handle the blade hitting a root or rock? One KZfaq video shows a shattered motor.

Very useful...thanks much!

Hi, Great video…Thanks so much! A few questions though. How simple is it to remove the deck, if possible? How much is a replacement 56v battery. And how much are the replacement blades?

Very good video 👍🏻🇺🇸!!!

Is the charger mounted on a 120 or 240 V output? What is the recommended amperage?

Does it have a kill switch function if the mower was to tip over?

I will soon be in the market for a new ride on mower as my 10 year old Husqvarna with over 700 hours on it is getting on it's last legs and repairs costs are becoming daunting. I have a little of 3 acres to mow and my Husky with a 54" deck has been a trouper. I'm curious is the EGO will do the same? I recently purchased some other EGO products, blower, string trimmer, and self propelled mower (for a smaller section of my property) and have had liked all of their performances thus far this spring. Guess i'm looking for someone to sell me on the fact that the EGO will do the job for me, especially in the long term, and especially at this price point.

I have the three acre yard to mow. Could I get by with it all just with a single charge?

I have the 10ah self propelled push mower. It’s great, but I just moved onto 3.5 acres. I’m considering a Z6 but I’ll probably go with a gas powered Husqvarna. I’m thinking that the battery technology needs one more generation of advancement before battery powered zero turns really take off. If they make a 60” mower with enough juice to reliably mow 5 acres or so I’d be really interested. But I will say that this Z6 has features that the Husqvarna MZ61 (a comparably priced gas mower) doesn’t have. Namely the seat suspension and wash down port.

I have 6 EGO tools and love them all...if I had a bigger yard and my wife had a bigger bank acct, I would jump all over it...LOL....EGO knocks the battery stuff out of the park in all their tools...great review as always!!!

Can you plug the charger into a regular outlet?

Does sport mode have launch control?

If i use it for commercial use will i breach the warranty terms?

I want one of these so bad.

Could you do a review on the AC Delco cordless ratchet? There is one with a 6 inch neck. It does lack variable speed but im curious how it stacks up against the Milwaukee and snap on and makita cordless.

great Mowing my lawn in half the time

Does the wall charger require a electrician to hook up or does it use a wall outlet

Can you connect a sprayer?

Would you recommend starting a lawn care business using this?

Will this model accept the dual mulching blades

How do you store it or the batteries over the winter?

Excellent review and I do own some EGO products but this and there equipment/batteries are over priced. If they could get a handle on the battery prices I would be more inclined to buy more of their products.

How hard is it to remove the blades?

I have the same zero turn. I can't mow 2.5 acres without having to recharge. I have 6, 10 amp batteries. When you get into thik grass the blades slow down and often stall out.

For someone that has never used a zero turn mower, you could mention the fact that the zero turn can leave divots on your lawn. The mover drives and turn with the rear wheels. When making a zero turn, the mower pivots on the inside rear wheel which can leave a rut. Best to make large radius turns. Now, what is Sports mode on this mower?

Was anything asked about HOW LONG it takes to charge all six batteries love how key points are always left out like motor life what would happen if you get caught in a flash rain storm typically FL area and what is the cost to replace dead parts after warranty runs out sure 6000 ain’t much these days but if parts start failing after six yrs and got to spend a grand on a motor that’s where they get ya.

What a fantastic review. It’s a little more than I wanted to spend but I’m doing it. I’m so sick of gasoline engines and all the nonsense that comes along with them

I know it's a little thing, but I noticed the handles were incorrectly mounted in some parts of this video and correct in another part. I was able to test run one of these, and when they aren't mounted correctly, they touch when pulled in and interfere when going forward or backward. Just keep this in mind when assembly of the mower.

Any comparison to a mean green - Thanks from Oz

Great video. Are baggers available and if they are, would love to see a review with bagger

How about a review cutting a well maintained lush residential lawn? Show cut quality in bagging, mulching and side discharge modes. For a product costing $7K, I think that would be pretty important to know. Thanks.

Would anyone recommend this mower for commercial use?

How too fix it when you get water in the screen

So cool

Does the 52 inch offer a 2 bag collection system like the 42 inch? Just curious

Love this mower. Feels like riding a ufo

When are you going to cut grass higher than 1"?

How do gain access to the mower blades to sharpen?

Looking forward to seeing one of these with a steering wheel.

Press and hold the + on your blade speed for about 3 seconds..a turbo icon will appear about the fourth bar, it’s “git-r-done” mode😎

Will this fit in the back of a standard truck bed?

Yeah but what’s the of those batteries

I find $7,000 a little hard to swallow for a zero turn. I have had a hustler 52” zero turn for 5 years now. Sharpen blades once a year change belts every couple years. It’s got self contained hydraulics, and I change the oil at the beginning of every season. I’m not sure where this fixation on gas and oil comes from but it’s not much worse than filling your car. I recently spent $300 to have it fully serviced and repaired but that’s after 5 years and sometimes 3-4 acres a week on some weeks. Oh and it was $1,800 because I bought it second hand. I’m no genius but at $1,800 or let’s say $3,000 new I don’t think you can save that money on maintenance and fuel. I think a lot of people are buying into prosumer without realizing the extra maintenance that goes with it

What is EGO warranty on batteries? Worries be due to them being over $200 each

Hi I bought one of these mowers and as I’m cutting the grass, the blades won’t stay engaged

The cost of battery replacement after warranty and repairability for electronic components has me still a little bit leery of jumping to all electric. I have been really tempted and have been trying to make a decision for my next mower but at this point with the hefty price tag for the mower and the batteries in the future I'm leaning heavily towards gas. If gas continues to go crazy I may change my tune hahaha.

My 6 yr old 7.5 amp battery lasts 50 minutes. We mow 3 acres with the 21 inch.

What is the cut quality like. The only hestation I have is longivity. I had a JD 214 for 32 years. Replaced it with a JD X534 10 years ago (for $7000) and it's still going strong. I've recenly started looking at the electric zero-turns. I'm tired of dealing with everything involved with gasoline and oil.

How long does it take to recharge the batteries and what does charging the batteries do to your electric bill?

I would go for the 42 " cut ,may cost less !

Hi Bought a 42 inch ego o turn They advertise that 4 batteries Will cut up to 2 acres if grass. I am getting only just over 1/2 acre of grass then I need to recharge the batteries. I run the blade speed at tge lowest setting and on the second speed for travell. Cut the grass 4 times Same thing need to rechsrge the batteries. Called tge company several times and no resolution yet.

Nice well done video

Looking awesome but the Plug in charger is stupid, they should've use J1772, I don't want another wall charger.

Why couldn't you use it on a commercial scale if you have extra batteries?

Please review/compare the new Ryobi 80V HP Brushless 54 in. Battery Electric Cordless Zero Turn. Rated for 5 acres.

I wonder? Will this last as long as my diesel Dixie chopper? …… I bought it back in 1998 and it is still cutting and making me money to this day 25 years later! Well will this lawn mower last that long? 25 years? If so I’d buy it but ….. I highly doubt it would ….I own the Ego electric weed eater blower and edger but I’d kill this machine and burn the battery 🔋 strait up if I did the same jobs I do today. And to boot you need 4 of those big batteries that cost basically over what I Would afford to pay. IMO looks good going in but long term I’d be sitting with a bunch of shorted batteries due to heat. The ones I use now shut down from time to time and I unplug them and reset it …..so what makes this any different? Love the light plastic weed eater and edger as well as the first light chainsaw …..not keen of the new heavy as dirt metal ones out now…… we ain’t out her to lift weights !! Who wants to be worn out more then they should ? We’re out to make money…..that first edition very light pole saw is the best ever and easy to use. I sold my heavy Echo pole saw after using the Ego …..The new ego metal/heavy one I’d leave sitting in the truck ….like I said weight is everything…..the lighter the better and the way I look at it is this….at the end of the day the job got done …..with less workout and done right. And I’m on all solar with those tools.

The battery prices are the deal killer for me. 18650 cells cost about $5.00 each. That's around $60 for batteries. Then you add a $6.50 BMS card. Add $10 for a custom made case. Of course, you must make a profit, so let's more than triple the cost and call it an even $300 sales price. Compare this to the Ego price. We are getting royally ripped off for a disposable item. Those batteries add up to more than half of the total cost of the mower. Ego has reduced the price a bit this week, because last week the 10 amp battery listed for $650!

What’s the life of those batteries

The battery run time is not what they claim. Figure on getting about 60% of that. As for longevity who knows. The warranty ought to be 8 years as with most EVs.

My biggest concern is how hot do the batteries get. Too hot and/or too cold is what kills the batteries.

I'm Injured veteran. have a i have a expensive ego.Self propelled mower When I walk behind the shelf Propelled mower my foot starts to bleed sometimes and I have to stopThe description of the electric writing mower specifically states. It's only for flat ground. If you have 1 or 2 hills on your property, what happens Then it doesn't go up the hill and it's $6000.

Damn you only had it for 3 hrs? I was hoping you actually used it.

Mean Green review please.

$32,000 on a commercial 12 acres Gravely. This is great for home use.

I had a JD Riding Mower with 23 HP Gasoline Engine-after 14 years, it was still Running Good with No Problems when I sold it for a Newer Model. I do not believe that this Battery Operated Machine would last 14 years with No Problems...

A $3200 gas mower ends up costing around $4700 every 4 years A $4500 electric mower costs $4650 over 4 years due to electric cost Every mower has its weak point.. so thats not the question. The questions is.. are you willing to pay for all of your gas and maintenance fee's up front and have a quiet mowing experience.. or would you like a cheaper gas lawn mower which is louder, and you pay for all of your gas and maintenance over time? If the electric mower lasts over 4 years... then you are putting money in the bank because electric is cheaper. Would you like to pay less than 50 cents to mow your lawn.. or $5-10 to mow your lawn each time? Just estimating but it should be around 15 cents per acre for Ego.. although you paid for your fuel up front.. After 4 years, you start to see that savings.. You immediately start to see savings of not having to drive to the gas station and pump fuel.. for some people that could be an hour round trip. No belt changes, no maintenance.. just get on.. press a button.. and mow... if it dies.. change the battteries if you have extra batteries.. or just plug it in.. and go spend time with your family instead of driving to the gas station

At $7k it should totally take up the niche as a professional mower. It does the same job but without all of the belts and hydraulics and stuff as you said. I am personally tired of companies coming out with crap that they say is "awesome" pricing it in the professional realm, and then saying this is for the "prosumer." Look at how well this worked for the chainsaw and leafblower battery crowd. You gave them no reason to switch. Yeah the chainsaw and leafblower is awesome but you want to charge someone $500 for a battery pack that you still have to pay electricity to charge???

Not tired enough of doing 30 minutes worth of maintenance a season to fork out $7,000 for one of those, LOL! And when just one of those batteries fails it's another $170.00 to replace? I could replace both belts, the spark plug, the oil, the oil filter, the air filter and both blades for less than the price of just one of those batteries. Had my rider for 11 years now and in that time I've changed the belts twice, the battery once and the spindles once. I resharpen my blades on the bench grinder. Easy peasy. I guess it helps that I actually like doing maintenance work when its necessary though. It's more fun than sitting here at my pc in the winter waiting for spring, lol.

I’ll stick with my grasshopper diesel! 💪

Nice informative video but $6,500 is a deal killer.

Future is here

That thing isn’t gonna get very old before something expensive breaks. I wouldn’t want one at all!

$6k for plastic...

Do not put anything that’s open lid or with a straw in the cub holders when mowing grass. Debris will fly in and it’s no good 😐
