One final comment. Love how you edited the video to start straight away with the cut, then showed the process, and finally assembly. You prioritized it by importance. It's little touches like this that make you a cut above the competition.
🙏🏻👍🏼
I just knew this video would bee a treat, a lawn striping kit for the ego lan mower, that is great, can’t wait to see how it holds up in the long run,
I got mine 2 months ago. Cut my lawn like 10 times so far. Do love it. Great Vid.
Thank you
I really enjoyed this video tutorial. I actually just received the same lawn striper today, so I can’t wait to install this tomorrow on my Ego and try it out! Thanks again!
Thank you
Cool 😎 Your lawn is healthy. I'm still dethatchin and then going to be reseeding.
Finally Tech Made Easy mowing videos. Can’t wait to see some mower unboxing and head to head mower battles. Happy Easter friend. From Florida 🤙🌞👍✅🔋😎💪🏼
Great video and review. This is The very first video that I’ve seen that shows the turnaround with a striping kit in regular speed.
Thank you
Great video! Love my ego lawn mower and trimmer. Snow blower maybe this winter. Anyhow I have a small lawn (chicago city lot), and I’m wondering if the striper would be noticeable. Obviously much better affect on a large lawn, but would you recommend? I usually do two passes- one vertical , then horizontal.
Thank you!
I did like this one but I haven't tested the one made by ego you might want to look up that and then make your decision
Great video. Nice to finally see a striping kit made for Ego mower. Thank u for sharing. I've been interested in a professional striping kit for awhile. Glad Big Lawn recognized that there was a market need for Ego mowers. Let me also add that u have a great looking lawn! Better than some of the professional lawn channels that I've viewed.
Thank you soo much we value your feedback and appreciate your kind words
Another awesome and informative video by Tech Made Easy! Love little Lawn Mower Joe! "Little Lawn Mower Joe with the big Lawn Mow Mojo!"
Thanks Jamal, I love seeing you on the channel and I appreciate your support
When I cut my lawn I cut it the same way with the line on the inside of the wheel too. Makes it look a lot better. I enjoy your channel some good info and some good comments.
Thank you
I just installed mine and used it for the first time. Added weight runs the 7.5 battery down faster. When turning on concrete driveway it leaves a big black swirl mark. No way to remove it from the mower after cutting so if you have been used to storing your mower upright the way Ego designed it you can’t do that anymore. It a big fan of the Big League Lawn stripper.
Check out the new ego one that finally launched it's definitely lighter
Thanks for the info and link man, I appreciate that and needed it. Thanks again
Thank you
Thank you, I just bought it threw your link. I really like the fact that its looks sturdy and well made!
Thanks for your support
Good video - i'll have to pick up a kit for my Ego mower. I will say tho, not having the edges crisp is triggering me!
Nice vid. Strips are mostly seen clearly by the angle you are viewing the grass/yard and the sun. It would have been nice to see two/three strips on a normal cut (without the kit).
Also, cutting down your side wall first may give you more room to swing the mower around.. Nice yard, you’ve taken care of your yard very well.
Thank you
I cut residential lawns for a living. I have had 2 ego 21in self propelled mowers in the last 6 months. Both burnt out the wiring, both happened when I was only using the drive. They replaced the first one under warranty, the second is still in the shop.
Sorry to hear Robert, bad experience. I've been using EGO Greenworks, Ryobi for a long while, now also Toro and of course this new Milwaukee. If you need any help, let me know.
When using self propel, the torque of the wheels lifts the deck a smidgen. To stripe without a kit, push going one way and self propel going the other way. I do this naturally on hills. The downhill pass is always cut just a smidgen lower than the uphill cuts. Stripes come out nice.
Nice
not getting it. every mower ive ever used left stripes just using the rubber thing in the back
@@anthonyponafala7973 not very contrasting stripes though. Professionals use rollers.
One beautiful thing about these new mowers is that they don't care if you put them on the side. Blade work used to become a nightmare when you tried to start the mower.
How much extra weight or resistance is this adding. I love how easy my new Ego mower is to push without the self propel being engaged.
22 more lbs
@@TechMadeEzy wow, that’s quite a bit more than I was thinking.
The weight is needed to make the strips
Why stripe your lawn? Just or the way it looks? I’m buying an EGO this week.
Hi-
I used the big league stripping kit on my previous 21" gas push mower. Stripes are fantastic. I am trying to understand how much less run time is provided by pulling another 22lbs. If the battery is 60 min without the kit, what is it reduced to with the kit?
I don’t strip all the time but when I have with my 7.5ah I don’t see much of a difference in battery life.
I have zoysia grass, which tends to stand straight up, and the stripes are always subtle.
So change extra for stripping so being able to take it off and put it easily is very important. I do have all Ego equipment and I forgot the name of the kit I got however I did have to customize it to be able to use the bag.. I think this is an amazing product and looks very clean definitely more for a home owner. Awesome video 👍 I love how you always find new products to try out.
Thank you Gerardo
All those parts can be found at home depot to make that stripping kit in the electrical section. Unistrut assemblies
Great review video! thank you.
just recently I switched mower from gas to Ego select cut XP (getting into Ego ecosystem).
I was curious about this striping kit! Glad to have watched your video. I ordered one.
Thank you
Got mine today. Cannot wait to use it on Saturday
Let me know how it goes
Good video Tech!
I never had much of a lawn, do people do this striping thing for aesthetics or is there some actual benefits?
More for the look. I myself hardly use a striper
Problem is you can still see the marks from the narrow wheels on the mower.
Striping also depends on the type of grass you have. Can’t stripe Centipede grass very well.
agreed. Never even heard of striping grass. Seems totally unnecessary and waste of battery life. I actually prefer the look of non-striped grass but that's all we have here (Illinois).
Are you able to store the mower up right with the striping kit installed? Or do you have to uninstall it to store upright?
Nope, I wish they had a way to take it off easy but you need a wrench
I'm sure its been said before, but the EGO just really lacks in suction. I have the Select Cut and the Big League striper, started striping a lawn that was renovated half a year ago, but striping it has really messed it up. The Ego just does not have the suction to lift grass to cut properly, the new grass wouldnt bounce back enough to get a good cut again. It didnt take long for the grass to start to matte down. There would be no problem if the mower had more power. Ive used the same setup on an established yard with less fuss.
Does the Ego not makes stripes like gas mowers?
It does but a stripper can make them even more defined
I was looking for a EGO striping kit. I just upgraded to a new double cut self propelled EGO. Have you noticed extra wear on the battery life with using the striping. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching 👍🏼
I push mow so no wear
Don't know about Ego, but I'll tell you my experience with a Toro electric with this striper. Striped great, but the added weight did significantly reduce run time. Also made turning more annoying than it needed to be. Used it all last year. This year, I took it off and I prefer it off. Another downside of this set up (and I have used Ego mowers) is that they don't have as much power as gas, so not as much suction. The problem I ran into is that the striper laid down the grass like it should, extremely well. But next time I mowed, it didn't have enough suction to really lift it and cut it well. The grass started matting on itself. Just my 2 cents.
For the first time using it I would of cut the lawn in a north south direction since you cut the lawn the last time in a east west direction
Good video-well presented. I would not purchase this because of having to unbolt it when not needed. They need to make a bracket where the bolts slip into a groove so that the striper could be easily removed when not needed. Very nice yard.
Thanks Rooster yeah I agree, definitely wish it was snap on snap off
Why does it request level 4 to mow. I want Bermuda as low as I can go and ego only goes so low. Not low enough for me. My lawn is pretty level. Will lowest setting work
That’s a statement they made, maybe for maneuverability?
Just curious, is it okay to remove that dust flap only and keep the bar that it comes with.
Not sure
@@TechMadeEzy , oh man lol. I did it and it makes it easier to back up the mower, I don't have alot of dirt for it to kick up so maybe this can work.
Cool ok thanks for sharing that Lon
Nice I had to rig mine up
I never thought I'd be the guy to stripe my lawn, but I'm gonna take the plunge! Should I get Big League Lawns kit, or the Ego Striping kit? Any thoughts?
Looks great
I wonder if it would be easier to attach that to a pole instead of the mower and just do it after you you mow
Hi, very interesting video. Thanks… my question, I already asked you about the mowhak, do you think that the additional weight will reduce this? Thanks again!
The additional weight from the striper?
I overlap when I mow and this produces a nice cut.
Awesome video
Big-league site says it is $150 not $110 foe Ego mowers. Is that correct?
Our video was made when this 1st launched so price probably changed.
Great Vid. I would have to think the extra 22 lbs is going to put strain on the motor and wear it out faster.
1st thank you
Not sure but I push the mower so it wouldn't matter for me. I understand what you are saying though
Great video. I love the kit on my Ego
@girlzlawn
Hey! I've checked at your channel also nice content! Hit me up on insta let's talk, I have some good ideas 😎

Techmadeezy
@@TechMadeEzy Will do
Look like a truck bro! Nice review
Helpful video! As I've seen others state, I would think that the added weight would certainly put undo strain on the motor and self proportion system, which may lead to unwanted wear. I guess only time will tell, and worse case scenario, EGO backs their power equipment for five years, so I would assume you're covered. The other thing I noticed, or assume, is that adding a striping kit on the back of the mower would hinder the upright storage feature?
Yup, can’t store upright , wish they made this snap on and off thanks for watching 👍🏼
@@TechMadeEzy Yes, that would certainly make it the perfect striper kit. Maybe in time!!
@@TechMadeEzy @UC9wDevehEup2r6rWVQ395mw You are able to vertically store your Ego with our striper installed.
You do however have to swing the striper underneath the mower so it is on the cutting deck side when standing straight up. We tested this, and it is the reason we went with the swivel clamp mounting hardware in the first place. We realize vertical storage is important to many of our customers, so we did our best to not impede its functionality.
@@bigleaguelawns thank you, wasn't aware of this.
Thank you for doing all those extra passes for me
My pleasure thanks for watching Tristen
I have been waiting for a review on this before I decide on getting it or not. I don’t stripe my backyard due to hills and obstacles. The company said you would have to unbolt every time?
Yes unbolt every time, wish there was an easy simple way to put on and off.
Great video! What type of grass do you have?
Thank you!
A mixture of Kentucky Bluegrass and tall fescue
I've been striping with my ego steel deck mower for a year now. Luckily, I have an amazing neighbor. And he was able to fabricate a system to install this big league kit on my steel deck. And, I can mow at my lowest setting without bracket hitting concrete, or digging ruts in the grass. Big league was very late with this one. I'm curious to see how Big League made this work on the steel deck mower🤔
I don't suppose you can share some plans or pictures
Our striper installs the same way on the steel Ego, but only works with the newer model years as our installation hardware requires the "support axel" underneath, that some variants don't have.
I have no idea what that pole is that ruins the look of that lawn or what it does, but regardless of cost I get rid of it and move it .
Great video and stripes came out great. What type of lawn?
Thanks Jeffrey, mix of Kentucky and tall fescue
I always cut my grass at the highest setting. Have you tried that yet? Does it still stripe well? Great video by the way.
Hi Sky I normally cut around 3 in but lately I'm going to 3.5 and lately 4 inches. I haven't tried it on a high setting yet but there are some limits when you watch the video
Another great review!
Thank you and by the way how's that Lowe's gift card did you get to use it
@@TechMadeEzy no I actually haven’t used it yet. I will soon. Lol
It looks great keep up the good work!
Unfortunately I just bought the new Toro electric mower. Big big mistake. They have cheapen the mower considerably compare to their gas mower. I own the Big League stripper and is
I disagree, I have the toro recycler 22 inch in gas and electric. The electric is far light so it may make it feel cheaper but does as good if not better job than my gas.
Can you use this on 20 inch model?
I'd reach out to the company just to check, there link is in the video description
@@TechMadeEzy
Thanks
Can you bag while having the striper on?
Yea
are you mulching here?
Yes
Also when is Ego going to give us a 30 inch mower!?
Your guess is as good as mine, would be nice to have even a 25 inch
@@TechMadeEzy agreed. I ran the 42 inch for a full year before I sold it (I have a small lawn care business I want to take it for electric but I’m going to need a commercial unit that’s electric for less than 10 grand) I did some reviews on my other channel
Soo you do not adjust the height of the mower to make alternative pattern?
That's really up to you, some even criss cross which is pretty cool
Why not just use a heavy roller and just go over the pattern?
Anyone know what camera/mic hes using?
Great review.
Thanks
Striping my rear just cut the grass.
Why is it so low
You can adjust the height of the mower
You should try a reel mower with a roller if you want real stripes
So glad my lawn didn't gaslight me into simping for it
That's very pricy for a mostly plastic striper. I bet a good man could make one for less than $50 that would work better. However I did give this video a thumbs up. The reason you can't go to level 2 or 1 is the grass needs to be longer to "stripe" ....that is lay over the grass so you see stripes. IMO striping is a little too much "bling" for a lawn but some people like it so more power to them. And it's most likely a 14mm wrench/socket but 9/16" does work fine as does the 3/4" inch for what is more likely a 19mm head.
Stripy.
$110 and 20 extra pounds aren’t worth the cosmetic effect of a striper. Also you should be cutting alternate strips with each mow meaning cut vertical lines this week then horizontal lines next week.
RIPOFF FOR THAT MONEY
$110 is actually pretty cheap especially that it's made well and made in the USA
Who really cares about a stripping kit for the lawn?It's just another gimmick to make more money
Someone needs real hobby
Looks like crap.
Tell me how you really feel
Thanks for sharing, I ordered one two minutes into your video.
You are cutting in too much, your stripes should be even width. I know it's hard to film and get everything perfect at the same time.
As I mentioned try cutting at 45 degrees, may make the lawn stand out a bit more.
Thank you
