    The 42 inch deck is also metal. The knob in front of the seat is for adjusting the seat suspension. The mowing height adjust has never slipped in my 2 years of use. EGO says 1 1/2 acre for the 42 inch and 4 10 AH batteries, also optomistic Nice vid, thanks.

    I’ve driven over raised roots peeking out of the lawn and my 52” Z6 does push up the deck and secures it in a higher position. You have to reset the height after a root encounter. Mine does mow my 2 acres with the blade at 3/4 speed and ends with about 10% charge. 6 twelve amp hour batteries.

    Nice review...perfect. I spent the money on this because I was sick of dumping money into my $3000 lemon husqvarna w/Kawasaki 24hp V-twin. What junk.

    I don't know about your experience removing the deck to sharpen blades, but mine is a nightmare. I bought the 52" EGO because the promo from the company made it look so easy to remove. It did not demo how to reinstall it. Now I know why. While getting mower ready for next season, removal was easy, but... After knocking out the lift lever pins, the deck drops down flat on the floor. Lining up the holes to reinstall is, so far, impossible. Even using a pry bar and some boards under deck, 4 hours later and I quit for the night. I'll try again tomorrow.

    I just got one. Practiced in the driveway for 1/2 hr.. Instructions say to push left lever forward to turn right, and vice versa. Doing that makes the turn much faster than I wanted to go! I found that a more intuitive way to turn is pull back a little on the lever on the side of direction I want to go. How do you make your turns? Am I right?

    Is all that static noise from the lawnmower and also does the parking brake spring go bad a lot also the steering controls?
  • @primarykeymusic
    Just about to splurge on one of these. I've seen several complaints about the deck rattling and causing premature wear. What's your take on that?

    So, I started my day hating my John Deere and decided this was the day it was getting replaced. After watching hours of YouTube, I headed down to the Husqy dealer but they had the one I wanted still in crates until Monday. Out of fairness, I figured I should make the rounds and check out the others personally. I was very impressed by the EGO52, but not by it's price which was $10400CAD out the door. But there may or may not be a govt (taxpayer) rebate of $14-16K. This would've made it a little more palatable and put it in the running but even the dealer was unsure and it was not listed on the govt rebate website. So I ended up buying the CubCadet Ultima ZT1 for $6K out the door and am very pleased, but if there was less uncertainty about whether poor impoverished taxpayers could've subsidized me along with luxury Tesla owners, I might've bought this instead because it is pretty impressive.

    Nearly one year after, are you still impressed? Any issues develop, unexpected limitations or other concerns?
