EGO Power+ Electric Riding Lawn Mower, 42" Deck Cordless Tractor, Includes (6) 56V 6.0Ah Batteries and Charger - TR4204

Ego makes quality products and this lawn tractor is no exception. It has several features that I like. The on the opposite side of the shoot has a small bumper. This bumper prevents damage to the deck if you hit a tree or other obstacle. The battery life is excellent. I have just short of three acres and I have to charge the batteries twice to mow the entire property and I still have some power left over. If you tree root or rock it'll shut off preventing damage. If your not paying attention to the power gage and are about to run out of power, it'll shut off the blade at about 4-5 % so that you can get it back to where you charge it, unlike a gas more that can run out of gas without warning far from where you store it. This is by far the quietest, the most reliable and the best build riding mower that I have ever owned.

Great lawn tractor. Was delivered by FedEx 2 days after ordering. Minima setup needed. Cuts and works great. Much quieter than a gas one, and just as powerful. Currently using it to mulch large amounts of leaves around my property.

In general, a decent mower with a few negatives. The good: 1) It cuts and mulches extremely well. Very clean cut, hardly a trace of grass and leaves to be seen after a single pass. 2) It's quiet. The bad: 1) The batteries go down way faster than I expected. On first use, starting with 100%, at medium speed and with blades set fairly high over very short grass, I mowed about a half of my 3/4 acres and the battery level was down to 35%. I can't see ever getting anywhere near the "1.5 acres on a charge" that they advertise. Later, the mower kept stalling when running blades with the battery below 20%. I think providing low-end 6.0Ah batteries with the mower is shortchanging the customer. And I'm not about to spend another $2000-$3000 dollars on bigger batteries! 2) If you're just going to mulch, the grass chute on the right side is really in the way. It sticks out really far. Which wouldn't be so bad if it were easily removable. Removing it is not an easy task, but it can be done. 3) The suspension leaves much to be desired. The ride is MUCH bumpier than the previous, heavier, gas-powered mower that I had before this. 4) The brake pedal is VERY hard to press. In summary, I'll keep it, I like it but I'm not in love with it, and I hoped for a little more for the price.

This is the latest edition to my EGO collection of yard tools. I was hesitant due to the extra cost compared to traditional gas powered mowers, but as I researched, I realized that there is very little maintenance on these compared to gas. The battery life described in the product description "Up to 1.5 acres cutting time" is a bit misleading, and I can confirm this to be true. The tractor comes with (6) 6-amp batteries, but can use (6) 12-amp ones if you have them or want to purchase them separately which is a huge cost for a typical consumer. My yard is on a small slope and is roughly just over a half-acre and when I finish it is at about 30% charge remaining. I have tried different blade speeds and drive speeds, and I end with about the same charge each time. The difference is minimal, which can also be due to wet grass, or less thick of a cut. Care of the batteries is very important, and it is a bit of a chore to carry them all from the barn to the house to ensure they aren't damaged by moisture or colder temperatures. I wish there was an easier way to transport them, or a housing I could use to keep them in the barn without worrying about them not being protected. Charging is very easy, as this tractor comes with a charging pack and adapter to charge directly in the tractor without removing the batteries. You can also charge them individually with other EGO chargers from other equipment. The cut quality of this tractor is good, and the blade height control is very simple. One thing I do wish is that the blades do not run in reverse unless you hold down the reverse blade button for 5+ seconds. This resets if you get off the tractor for anything then you need to do it again, which is one of the safety features of the tractor. It cuts off when you get up from the seat. This is no zero turn, but it does turn pretty well. It took some getting used to my first time using it, but I have since figured out better patterns and routes to use to make my yard look great with this tractor. It's been a month and 4 or 5 cuts and so far I have enjoyed this lawn tractor. One last thing I want to add, is that the included quick-connect hose attachment to clean the deck makes cleanup after cutting a simple 2 minute task. I wanted to get a mower with this option, and I'm glad that came with that! The delivery of this tractor was amazing. One of the reasons I decided to purchase, is because SHIPPING WAS FREE with Amazon Prime! Other vendors wanted anywhere from $200-$400 to cover freight charges. So purchasing here on Amazon was the best option to save some money. Disassembly of the delivery cage and assembly of the tractor took a couple hours, but it was package extremely well. Be sure to take off the parking brake before trying to roll it off the crate. We'll see how this holds up over time, but for now, I am satisfied with this tractor and it fits my needs.

Shipping was good. Comes very well crated. There is no issue with un-crating the mower. It comes with VERY clear instructions on how to un-pack it, by disassembling the metal crate(remove bolts). I used my floor jack on one sie of the crate to easily roll the mower off the other side. So far, I am really happy with the mower. It has been used two times. My previous mower was a 46" cub cadet. There is definitely a learning curve, but all in all it is a big step up in convenience and performance. Mowing our large suburban yard (front and back) uses about 60% of the battery. It cuts very well with plenty of power.

Do not waste your money on this tractor. I bought this tractor April of 2024 and only put 25 hours on it before it completely bricked itself. It went to service 3 times, each time a different part getting replaced and firmware updates. We could not use the tractor in the fall to pick up leaves. It was in the service. It came back, we had the tractor for another couple of weeks and it died again. Back to service. Another 2 months in the service. Came back. It sat in the garage during winter. We take it out for spring time and it died again. Batteries are not the problem because we use the same batteries in other Ego products. When it bricks itself, it throws no error message. It will just not move forward or backwards. Now it bricked itself for the 3rd time April of 2025. Each time, it spent 1-3 months in the service. I just called the service today for an update after 1 months of being there and they are replacing more parts. They replace electrical components, they replace drive train, they update firmware. No luck. This is a brand new tractor that we paid $5000 for and also bought leaf catcher and other accessories too. Big mistake. Should have bought a John Deere. While other Ego products are good like the leaf blower and edge trimmer, do not buy this piece of garbage tractor. Ego won’t buy back their tractor. They say it needs to keep going back to service for warranty repairs. I’ve been on the phone with Ego and even spoke to supervisors. No help. They won’t buy it back. Just needs to keep going back to service for more repairs. The tractor is now 1 year old and spent maybe 6 months in the service. I’m not sure what we do from this point forward. The tractor is still in the shop right now with no end in sight. Don’t buy this tractor.

The shipping is amazing. It is a custom steel frame held together with vibration resistant fasteners. All tools for unpacking are included. The mower can be easily moved by one person even without power. The lack of friction due to mechanical mechanics is a hidden bonus. One nut to secure the steering wheel and two to fasteners the seat and I mowered my lawn. No bs, no gas, no noise, no stink of a carb not running properly. Best of all, no anxiety over next year's issues. Now my wife does all the mowing. Tell me what that is worth!

Unboxing lots of bolts to undo! 4 zip ties hold on the plastic have strong clipper to cut. Will need them to cut free the boxes. Undoing the frame will take some time. You will also need some wood to make a ramp off the bottom section. You also will want to open the batteries and get them charging so the are set to go as you finish up the set up. The seat, tool rack, and steering wheel all go on easy. Have an air pump for the tires. Will post a video and first test run tomorrow. But so far very satisfied with the quality and easy to assemble. Day 1 using T6 to mulch some leaves in the yard. Was able to cover my complete yard a few times and just drive around to see how long it would run. I ended the day at 20%. Over all happy with the power and ease of use. Was able to cut both in forward and reverse. Ride was smooth and the higher speed did use the power faster but in low I had no problems with the blade cutting up the leaves!
