The mower is pretty awesome. I'm glad it comes with the extra battery and fast charger. I have 1/4 acre and it died on me 2/3 of the way on flat land with maybe 1" high grass, but I was also using the self propel feature. I swapped to the other battery and finished up while putting the 10am battery on the quick charger. The quality of the cut was great using the mulcher. I never had so much fun mowing before. I'm sure if I pushed it manually that the batt would last the entire yard.
One thing to note is EGO chargers don't manage the batteries properly and shorten the batteries life. They have been accused of misleading their customers too. If you buy one of these, don't leave your battery constantly on the charger.
This or Roybi ? Which one is better for avg size home lawn ?
I went with Greenworks 80v lineup. They have the 60 lineup now at Walmart; so there's the possibility that you can snag some clearance items in the future. I've used both an ego mower and a Greenworks mower. I prefer the Greenworks over the Ego 56v mower.
Not used Roybi.
I have a mower, chainsaw and blower from Greenworks now with 3 total 2 amp batteries. I do all the trim work on a half block property that has one house, pool and lots of flower and small tree & bush pieces bordering it with usually only needing 2 batteries. I like changing batteries because it gives me a break to get a drink or something.
Hmm... this, or Amazon has it now for $230 but without the free battery. Perhaps Lowes will PM Amazon and then you can get the best of both deals?
You can also get the extra battery with it for 299 so wherever you get a better discount Lowe's or Amazon. I bought it from Amazon and got the 6% back on my card.

There are several options in the Ego 56v lineup. Which one did you use? Some have more torque and power than others. I am looking at the Greenworks 80v mower at Costco and the Ego LM2156sp.

You could always return the extra battery, but you're not going to get any money back since you got it for free.
This for blower. EGO blower tech is as good or better than 2 stroke gas - I will never go back. Prefer a honda mower though...
Love my Honda.

Lowe's implemented a price minimum a few years ago on sale items to prevent stacking of discounts that result in a loss
