It’s cause Lowe’s ceo wanted chervon the parent company of ego to be in a partnership like Home Depot has with tti the parent company of Milwaukee ryobi and the orange rigid, cause they already have a relationship cause ego makes the kobalt 24vtools for Lowe’s,so they pulled ego to Lowe’s they also pulled skil to Lowe’s replacing portacable and black decker for the lower end and flex a company that makes to amazing corded power tools they added a cordless tool division and the first place they where sold was Lowe’s also if you go to Lowe’s from the pro side you’ll see the flex and kobalt signs more than dewalt and craftsman

I sell the EGO brand and several other commercial battery powered landscaping equipment brands; and believe me, everyone is in some type of transition mode towards battery. I'm finding people are eager for information on converting to battery and exactly how it can benefit them. EGO is a solid brand and boy do they make some cool things!

I have owned EGO tools for a couple of years now and had an issue with a blower. I contacted them for a replacement part which probably cost about .25 cents. They told me not to bother, they would just replace the whole blower for free. I said "for a .25 cent part" and they said "Yup". .......Noooice"!

I've got the original Power head with the hedge trimmer and pole saw attachment, the original larger chainsaw, the original two stage snow blower from 3 years ago and the 650-cfm leaf blower from a couple years ago. Very handy equipment and I would really love to have the newer snowblower because it seems like the adjustment is a little bit better for directing the snow schute, I want the power washer and when my Honda lawnmower starts to need work I want to replace it with one of these ego push mowers. Don't really need the Shop-Vac yet. I have a lightweight secondhand 18-volt Rigid and a plug-in wet-dry-removable leaf blower style 15 gallon vacuum from rigid that came out a decade ago and it's still in great shape.

I would like to have the commercial mower for home residential use. Yes its expensive and overkill, but it seems like a well built machine that will outlast the batteries. I like that it's duel battery and has a turbo button. It looks like it checks all the boxes in what I've been asking from EGO. What I need to verify is if you can activate Turbo mode in the mower without disengaging the blade. If you can turn turbo on and off easily without having to turn mower off, I would be happy to switch from Honda back to EGO again.
@duffsvids9 ай бұрын
If that mower is $3999.00 with the price of the 6 amp hour battery at $349 x 6 makes the mower itself under 2 grand which is cheaper than gas mowers now. That’s amazing.

I don't do a lot of landscaping, and I have some health issues, but the entirety of not having to get/keep/dispose of gasoline, oil, etc, but also not having sub-rate power because it's "just electric" is astounding. I add a new item from them every year or so just because I love their tools.

@conradsteinweg85789 ай бұрын
I can understand both sides of the gas versus electric debate. I'm a part-time lawn care business. For my gas equipment, maintenance is definitely an issue. New carbs, rebuilds to replace gaskets or grind the valves on a flathead. I get full of gas often when a Stihl tank releases pressure. They smell, and small motors pollute a ton. But Stihl and John Deere (my internal combustion brands) last and last long. My Ego equipment is great. The push mower doesn't have the lift of a gas mower, but in all other cases their equipment has more power. Those would be hedge trimmer, string trimmer and blowers. The Ego blowers absolutely kick @#$, with only the large Stihl backpacks beating them. The chainsaw is as expected, equal to a 45cc gas saw. One thing with the batteries. They don't last forever. They don't have the sophisticated battery management system and cooling that automotive lithium battery packs do. As a result, overheating and imbalanced cells can occur more. Case in point, new 7.5ah ego batteries are about $350 now. I just had to send in a 3-year old 7.5ah for rebuilding. The chargers flashed red with it. The pack was at 46v so a few cells were definitely toast. That cost $300 with shipping. I did it because it was 50 bucks saved. That cost has to be taken into account by a business. A new OEM carb on a Stihl blower is probably $45, with .5 to 1 hour of labor at $110/hour locally. New gaskets on a Briggs 24hp vtwin was $500 this summer, but what if all 2 of 6 batteries on an Ego zero-turn needed a rebuild? About same cost. I will continue to use a mix of Stihl and Ego tools and in the jobs where they each excel.

I am optimistic the Ego will do the right thing and go back to the quality they were once known for.
