Milwaukee Lawn Mower Review | M18 Fuel 2823-22HD

The Milwaukee lawn mower has been on the minds of lawn care enthusiasts for months, ever since they announced it late last year. We got our hands on the 21" self-propelled model early, and ran it threw a gamut of tests. You'll find everything you need to know about power, runtime, cut quality, and unique features in this video.

I work for Homedept and I constantly use your videos to show customers the products we sell and your honest and real review. Saving this video to show when we finally get them in stock to customers. Keep up the great work.

If you think about it. It’s a $500 mower with two batteries that cost $250 each. You can use the M18 batteries on other tools/lawn care equipment.

I have had a Milwaukee mower for one year now and do not usually use the mulch bag. What I have noticed about it the few times that I did use it though, around the back corners of the bag, it is starting to fray and come apart. I don't allow it to get as full as it could when using it so there is no extra weight on the corners. Also, the few times I have used it, I use my blower to make sure I put it away clean, mostly bc I don't want to drag any debris into my garden shed. I am probably too particular about my lawn and lawn equipment. When I pay this much for a mower, I expect it to last. Other than that, it is a fantastic mower, I have had no issues with it. I did purchase two extra batteries so that I can rotate them between uses. I purchased the blower and multi attachment string trimmer. The trimmer is great...the blower is not much to write home review is after one year of use of all the pieces.

Actually a Dewalt lover here, but wow this is impressive. One wonderful thing I see is the two handles to pick it up and put it in the back of a pickup. Man I wish my Dewalt had those and the continuous LED battery indicator lights. Well done.

Wow it amazes me how Tool brands have come like Milwaukee and Makita because back then you couldn’t get stuff like this and I think they did a fabulous job of coming up with lawn equipment that are battery operated and you just have to use one battery or two for just one system

Just bought it and boy does it take off. Still have to develop muscle memory for the self propelled triggers, even after adjusting speed, it takes off. I have a huge collection of Milwaukee tools for my cabinetry business, so I’m use to the price premium. But at $1000 I was a little sticker stock, however after using it I understand the price tag. Great mower.

I bought an electric start TORO years ago and it was $1000 Canadian dollars, so around $800US. It has a full blade clutch, so it runs with the blade stopped, and it has the self propelled drive that you just start walking and it moves at your speed. Milwaukee seems to have made it into a real mower, rather than the plastic deck garbage we see in basically all the others out there, so the price isn’t out of line. I note that their controls and their function are very similar to the TORO I have, and I have always liked how they are set up, and how they work.

So cool to see it actually cutting grass! You all rock🔥

This is a great start for Milwaukee in the landscaping side of tools, they are also working on a Ride on mower and a Zero Turn. Now I’m assuming that the zero turn will fall under the MX Fuel line and the ride on could be running off 4 x 12.0. But this is all speculation at the moment. I’m currently waiting for my mowers to show up at my Red Zone as I already have 13 pre orders for them. In Canada they are selling for $1289 - $1349

[coldwarkid]

Very cool mower but when I looked up the price my sox flew off and hit the TV. Wow...$1300+. I've been luvin Stan's videos for several years now. He's got a fun and interesting take on product reviews.

[johnargumaniz]

Wow first video I’ve seen of it actually being used other than the Milwaukee demo videos

[monroekunz]

Great demonstration. Bought a toro last summer it works great has 60 amp 30 volt battery that is useless to me for anything but mowing. I'll buy anything Milwaukee makes have a huge collection of their tools. The 2 12 amp batteries are $500 & I can use them in other tools like table saw or miter saw. This mower has a lot of functions the toro doesn't and I'm totaly happy with every Milwaukee tool I have. I have friends that will buy this toro from me as soon as I find a Milwaukee

[TheGreatEscape]

Ohhh helll
The mower, the Blower & The vacuum are on my wish list 🤣

[richardgavle]

The lack of a discharge chute bump is not to make it go through gates, that would be a very narrow gate. It is to allow it to mow up to the edge of a gate, wall etc.

I just discovered this existed. I waited for this mower for years but I eventually had to upgrade and this didn’t exist. Seeing the price and the inability to buy this without batteries, I am glad I purchased the Ego for $750. The battery is great and charges fully in less than an hour and lasts me more than I need. I also like how the Ego seems to fold easier and the plastic deck won’t rust. I was a bit skeptical of the all plastic design but it’s holding up well. The self propelled is also easier to use with the ego. However, the lights on the Milwaukee are nice. Kind of disappointed with Milwaukee on this product but at least it hasn’t made me regret buying the ego.

Just what my 4x 12ah batteries needed! Gonna get myself one to complete my Milwaukee lawn tools!

[twoweeledsoto]

Nice to finally see a positive review on Milwaukee's mower. Most reviews on this mower have problems galore with shutting down for no reason. Since some people have problems with the 12ah batteries not charging all the way up, I wonder how this mower will run with 6 ah or 8 ah ?

I’ll have to wait for some real footage of mowing wet overgrown grass. I seen the test footage against the Honda petrol mower. But I’m not convinced.. they didn’t mention what rpm’s the Honda was set at. When I got my Honda the rpm’s were set to 2800.. most contractors will adjust the rpm’s straight up to 3600. The difference between 2800 to 3600 is night and day. So if the test mower was set at 2800 then it’s already an unreliable test.

As a contractor I’m happy to pay a premium price for a battery mower and really looking forward to making the switch. But it needs to hit 3600 rpm, have more torque then the Honda 216 and have a runtime of at least 30 minutes going through the worst of the worst. If they can give me that. I’ll buy it.

[roadglide]

I’ve never in my life felt the urge to mow at nighttime or early mornings lmao 🤣 If I am I need a med adjustment! If I ever spend $1K on a push mower I need stronger Meds! 😆 BTW my $400 Honda that I bought 8 years ago still starts on the 1st Pull & will probably go another 8 years!

[spursdynasty]

Hopefully they can make a residential model in the $500 range. A grand is just too steep for your average buyer !!
