I struggled deciding between the 22" aluminum deck or the lighter, less powerful model. My schedule doesn't always allow me to mow the yard at the best times, so occasionally it gets a little too long. This thing is a beast and has ravaged everything I've thrown at it. If registered and connected to the Ego app, you can increase the turbo mode rpm even more. It doesn't struggle at all in thick, long, and even a little wet grass. My yard has some bumps and hills, and this mower is a little on the heavier side, but I haven't had any issue getting around with the self propel. I've read concerns about the loudness of the self propel, but I haven't found it to be an issue at all. It get a little louder the faster you go or if it's pulling harder to go up a hill, but still not anything I find annoying.If you register, Ego also sends you a free side discharge attachment and high lift bagging blade which most reviews I've read seem to prefer over the mulching blade even if you're not bagging. I received the side discharge attachment, but the high lift blade apparently is on backorder with no ETA on when it will be sent. Overall, I'm glad I picked this model because I'm confident it can handle anything I'll even need it for.

Simply put, this mower, and every other Ego Mower I have used, does not cut evenly and leaves big clumps of grass all over. I have tried adjusting heights, I have tried overlapping, I have tried different blades, nothing helps.

I already had lots of Ego batteries, I didn't need any more so I just wanted the LM2200SP mower. All of the retail stores in my area only had the mower WITH the batteries at a price several hundred dollars more, so I was delighted to see the mower ONLY, was available on Amazon. It arrived in less than two days along with free shipping! That was amazing because if I had been able to purchase the mower from my local big box store, they would have charged me $79 dollars for delivery!The mower comes assembled right out of the box, you just have to put the bag attachment together which is easy.I used the mower today and loved it. It's powerful and mulched the grass beautifully, I saw no trace of the clippings on the lawn.Cleaning it is easy, you just fold down the handle and tilt the mower up, something hard to do with a gas mower because you have to worry about the oil leaking in the crankcase. No gas or oil or any liquid here.Since Amazon is an authorized Ego retailer, they'll honor the warranty. All in all, no problems and a great mower purchased from Amazon.
