I've completely switch over eletric myself. Its quieter, less maintenance, better storage, sometimes lighter etc. I dont see a down side.
I love the battery lawn equipment also however, it's not a 100% replacement and never look back unfortunately. I have the EGO mower, edger and 22" bristle brush. I will be the first to say that I'm all on the edger however the mowers simply do not have the suction power of gas mowers. I love the mower and will continue to use but will always have my Honda gas mower ready for the dirty work.
Cost, performance, and longevity are the downsides.
Can toro send me a pile of free lawn stuff ?
You have 2 subscribers lol
Hm.... I like it. Then again its probably cuz im so used to batteries 😂 on the reel though i really like it
🔥
🌞Nice coverage of the Toro lineup. The man sneezing across the street was classic! 😂
Bro... Those suttle dirty comments are hilarious!!! (BJ, 3in, trimming bush)😂😂. Keep up the great videos. Yard looks great and the equipment sounds like a winner!
I bought the 22 inch Toro electric mower and I love no longer having a gasoline powered mower. My gas mower was also a Toro and the improvements they made are great. Your videos are outstanding. Thank you
It’s just not a video without the sexual innuendos 🤣
I have a toro and I love it
Did you check the bagger chute when the mower was leaving clippings? My guess is that it was getting clogged up since the grass looks damp and super tall. My JD rider will do that if I mow somewhat damp grass. Just clean it and then it's good to go until it clogs again.
It was clear!
Say a person mows every week to week and a half or so will this still be under powered? You suggested every 3 or 4 days.
I'd say it wouldn't work quite as well for you
Great video/bad mower! Hate the steel decks that tend to buildup & clog needing cleaning; my battery mower has a plastic deck with no buildup, clogging, or rusting out. That Toro mower also needs a single lever height adjustment.
I prefer the steel deck on this one over the plastic. I also prefer the multi height adjustment over the single point, for the reasons I stated in the video. To each their own
I’m trying to decide between the 60v recycler and super recycler
Is the super worth the extra $$$
I honestly have not used the 60v super yet. I think the gas version is definitely worth the upgrade so I would assume it’s the same with the 60v versions, but I can’t say for sure. I apologize
@@TheLawnWhisperer
Thanks for the reply and honest response
I appreciate it very much.
My current yard is so small it just made sense to go with battery operated mower. It's been good for 6 years and the batteries are still good and I still get 3-4 mows before I recharge.(I'm doing less than 1500 sq). I mow every 3-4 days. I just shake my head when a neighbor brings home the Big Box du jour gas mower and trimmer. I'm just like...why? You could mow the yard with a beard trimmer. lol
Thanks for the review. Was debating between this toro and the new ego select cut. Went with the ego and love it. Only thing I'm jealous of is the lever for the mulch plug and the personal pace system, but i guess you can't have everything.
I honestly don’t like the personal pace system.
“I’m not used to working with three inches.” 😂
Best electric Toro its more like a gas type better than those other Electrics land mowers the reason why you had grass clippings is because your grass was deep and your bag got full too fast don't bag
Agree with the first part, disagree with the second. Have a good day though
@@TheLawnWhisperer well remember when you have the grass with a tiny bag like any other push mower you should just side discharge or try to mulch it down into the ground I poosh mow a acre with the gas model and I love it personal pace is the king no issues personal face gives people flexibility you know that
@@TheLawnWhisperer and everybody seems to be crazy to have a plastic light electric mower but they don't cut very good and they're too light there's a boundary of going to light and cheap and not get what you pay for
I have been waiting for Toro to get on the battery powered wagon! Just a couple years too late for me. I went with another brand since it was well over time for a new mower but it worked out. Nice Review!👍
Awesome review Justin.
I come for the tips and stay for the comedy! 😂 keep up the good work 😎👏
Ego mower with lift blade will pack the bag tight with clippings. Even in tall st. augustine grass. Leaving hardly anything behind. When the grass is wet then things being to clump up, but it will still cut it.
This mower had no issue cutting it. It had an issue with not clumping up cutting 9" tall grass, which is to be expected. I bet the ego still would have struggled in this same situation
@@TheLawnWhisperer that's very much possible as I have not cut grass quite that tall I believe. Have done tall cuts but never measured them. I do believe the blades make a big difference though. Especially the mulching blades which are heavier but reduce runtime significantly by around 50% or so. Which is one of the downsides of the ego. Great video. Think Toro is definitely taking the right direction here.
So bizarre
Perhaps if I had 1/64 of a acre like you do maybe I would try but for now gimme good old gas eating smoke blowing gas engines for my mowing hands down baby
“I’m not use to working with three inches.”
Not with those thumbs! 👍🏼
I just got this lawnmower and love it. I've never used the Personal Pace system before, but I've had none of the problems using it that others have described on UA-cam. It's so smooth and makes the mowing so easy you feel like you cheated.
Yup, the Personal Pace system is the best self propelled system on the market.
Great review Justin ! And great humor. Loved it
Stel decks are the worst, they rust away…
Theres a reason for why quality mowers have either plastic or aluminium deck.
Good timing on this video. We have just shy of 27,000 square feet of grass. We have a rider for a majority of it but hand mow the front yard and trim the back yard. Have wondered about getting an electric mower as our hand mower. Just worry about the battery not lasting long enough to take care of all of it. Been looking at ego and Kobalt...maybe I need to look into Toro as well.
I have also heard that electric mowers like to leave the area where the wheels have matted down the grass uncut. Did you notice that at all when you had the long grass?
I would really like to get an electric mower. But who has time to mow every other day? Especially when it may rain 5 or 6 days in a row?
I have been running into that same trimmer issue lately. I have been using a straight shaft Homelite for 19 years. I recently got an Echo gas trimmer. The Echo turns opposite of my old Homelite. I’m having to adapt to it. I thought all trimmers cut the same, but it turns out curved shaft trimmers and some gas models are different. It may be that some electric weed eaters turn clockwise as well.
Does your make a noise when the self propel engages, like a rattle? Seems to go away as I get up to speed.
Wasn't sure if it's something other mowers do but cant hear it from mower noise.
Mine hasn't had that issue!
EEK! (4:03) nobody in their right mind mows every 3 days... he needs a better hobby :)
You do know Toro named the battery line after LCN🤣🤣😎👊 Great video!👊
The lines of grass is because it’s overgrown
When is some LW merch going to be available?
What are you looking for? Shoot me an email, I've got some stuff left in stock
You should leave your grass at least three inches so it doesn’t dry out if not watered
The advantage of the mulch plug is that it's two bucks cheaper to make.
Hah that’s fair
Great review, as always funny and informative. The lawn looks great.
9:07 annoyed by car but does NOT break his train of thought. I"m impressed Justin!
Someone is growing up and putting on their big boy pants 😎
The Lawn Whisperer Dude never grow up 😎
Real good video!
Can this 60v battery work with my 40v powerplex trimmer?
No I don’t believe so
Do you like the toro mower over the Ego?
I hate the personal pace
After using this mower for a couple months, I absolutely hate it.
So maybe a bit biased, I own a company that services over 400 lawns per week. I bought this for my cookie cutter tiny lawn at home. And frankly, the cut quality or bagging ability doesn’t even come close to a gas powered comparative.
If there was a way to lock it into the “high speed” mode it may be better, but bagging still sucks and it leaves trails unless you are cutting the lawn every day it seems.
Definitely not happy and regret buying it!
Nice honest review I appreciate that , but cant pull the trigger on electric yet .
Grab the ego select cut and you’ll never go back.
Great video
Me too i can use a new mower
Great video as always.
My gas mower is 12 years old and all I ever did is put gas in it and use it , year after year. Maybe I'll check the oil this year? Lol
I reel mow real low a few times a week with a Hudson Star manual reel mower which is fantastic but a few times a month I rake out my thatch and leaves and use my now ten month old 60V Recycler which replaced an old gas Toro Recycler to vacuum and bag. Mine isn’t self propelled because I wanted more range and reliability and my grassed areas are rather small. I’m very happy with its performance and find that without engine maintenance I’m sharpening my blades more often.
Looks nice, but I have my doubts if it would work on 10,000sq ft with leaves. I Mow twice a week , but do have some pretty some big clean ups in the spring and after hurricanes. I would try it, just not sure I would buy it.
Excellent job and you did show you backing up.1/24/2022
I'm guessing it's the blade, I've seen other vids where they switched to the performance blade but it eats more battery. The mulch one is almost flat compared to the lift one.
I was excited about the blower until you said it was light duty. I have a large property completely surrounded by trees. I have to leaf blow 3 times (4 hours + each time) in the Fall, or the leaves will be up to my waist. Man, I hate Fall. I think it's time to have some trees cut down. I will check out the mower though.
940 because if you have wet grass to cut it can be an obstruction and block up quiker not making it through to the box i live in the uk
Do you think this mower will cut thicker St. Augustine Grass found in Florida?
300 its the bad design of the grass bag the angle of it is not allowing the grass to sit in the bag sliding back on to the cutting deck
Had a neighbor like this guy, he used to shop vac leaves off trees in the fall as they would die before they fell on the lawn, no shit.
What’s the issue?
@@TheLawnWhisperer Is your ocd being treated or not???????
@@kdmigloo untreated and thriving!!!
Good video, review, humor, & editing. I have the EGO (more bulkier than that Toro) and honestly don't prefer it due to the length of time the battery lasts. I feel rushed with 7000 sq ft.
I wonder if the mulch/bag lever mechanism is proprietary? I just purchased a recycler and I love that feature.
I have the same mower it’s a piece of crap.
I liked it
So you say one notch above the back. So the front would be on let's say notch 3 and the back on 2?.
I was also thinking the mower sounded like a big box fan 😂. To me, it sounds more like a ventrac which is AWESOME
Do you think this stacks up better than the Ego?
Dude, I bought one! So quiet, such a good cut. So satisfying 🤣 Thank you 👍🌱👍
Is it true that you can't push the mower while it's off and it won't cut unless it's in self propell?
@@RichieColemanSr Fortunately, you can push it when it is off and it will cut when you push it without the drive on. Unfortunately, I don’t think you can use the self propel without the blade on.
@@lazarusgrey4866 What's your overall thoughts the Toro battery operated mower vs other mowers?
I'm asking because I really want to make the switch.
If you have smaller yard that can be mowed on one charge and don’t like maintaining a gas engine, it’s great. I love mine, but it was not cheap 😂
Does it have LED lights on it if you needed to mow at night?
So many thumbnail options in that opening. How on earth did you decide what to go with?
The trimmer sure seems to be an upgrade for the 40v I have. I'm not a fan of my 40v trimmer. Great review bud. 👊
What model number is the mower?
Truth be told that's really the only reason why I'm going to get a battery operated push mower string trimmer and blower so that way I can do my lawn work early in the morning man use my gas powered equipment to do my lawn work when I get off of work
And a Echo Hedge attachment trimmer in case I have a bush or his job to trim that I can start between 5:30 and 6
Just did my first mow with the 60v, the height adjustment sucks!! My ten year old Honda has one rugged lever... this feels flimsy and each wheel at a time.
🤷♂️
The battery is not big enough. It needs the 7.5ah out of the box with the mower. The bigger battery is $350 by itself which makes the mower a no buy for me. The trimmer and blower are decent deal though.
The 6ah is plenty for my lawn. You can buy the mower with the 7.5ah battery included
@12:50 the walk of shame returns
Every 3-4 days??
Yeah??
Great video Justin!! “Not use to working with 3 inches 😂
Great review. Great mower. EPIC OPENING! 😂🤣😂. Thank you
I hated the 4 point height adjustment on my old mower. That's a deal breaker for me!
To each their own, I actually don’t mind it!
Awesome and hillarious video again brother im definitely sold on the blower im getting one friday or so thanks alot loved it
Great review video and a nice intro 👍
Sounds like it has great power
Pretty awesome products!
When leaving all those clipping your bag wasn’t puffed out which is an indication of either clogged chute or you accidentally had it in mulch mode.
Neither
@@TheLawnWhisperer is it too wimpy to blow the bag out with air like any gas mower does?
@@horsemany I don’t think it blows it out with air. But I would not call it wimpy. It does a great job, just not on really overgrown grass
Great video man. Hedge trimmers in the future?
Yessir!
How come you arent edging the side yard by the garage?
Prepping for an edging video
Deck height adjustment at each wheel...big ol no from me.
🤷♂️ I dont mind it
@@TheLawnWhisperer The grading of my lot has me making height adjustments twice on each side, once for the front, once for the easement and twice for the back. Otherwise, I'd scuff the lawn. One touch adjustments are dependable for the life of a mower. Toro ought to come around.
@@konspikuous420 I dont like one point adjustments. I hope toro never goes to a one point adjustment
It’s time for a what lol
You heard me 😂
Need that.
First
Who waves at people driving past they don’t know??
I’m curious as to the cost of a secondary mower battery. My experience with battery tools is after a year or two the batteries are harder to find due to changing of designs.
My Greenworks 80v kills the Toro.
have you used the toro?
First Aussie 😁
Great Video, I use their 60V snowblower and it’s freakin awesome, just seeing the neighbors struggling with their gas snowblowers is entertaining. I’m definitely buying this😎
