GREG MIGLIORE: Hey, guys. It's Greg Migliore. And I want to show off my new lawnmower. This is something that I think you might be interested in if you're into electric self-propelled lawn mowers.

This is by Ego. The model number is LM2100. So let's get up close and check it out. So this is the deck. It's a 21-inch cutting deck. It's plastic, which might be a little different for you. But it makes for a lighter lawn mower. And I found it to be pretty robust.

I like those kind of neon green wheels, too. Come on up here. So right here, that's where the battery goes. It's a 56-volt. Plenty of cutting power. Come on back over here.

That's the bag. I've only had to unload it once so far. Now, let's get into some of the nitty, gritty. Apologize for my shadow here. There we go, we'll swing it out over here.

This is essentially the cutting button. You do this. You push that down. Then you pull this up, and then you pull that and away you go. And this essentially starts the cutting.

Otherwise, you actually can kind of roll around without cutting if you're just moving the lawnmower. But generally, it's a self-propelled lawn mower. You paid more for that. You might as well use it.

Come on down here. This is how, again, you can raise and lower the height. I've been astonished. I've been cutting most of my grass the first or second grade, if you will. My old gasoline powered ones, granted they were old, but I still usually had to sort of cut twice to get the fine kind of look I want as far as getting that really neat, you know, Comerica Park infield look, if you will.

But overall, I'm liking it. I've used it a few times now. I did a lot of research. You've probably seen this one from a bunch of different websites. So yeah, that is the Ego Self-Propelled lawn mower. It's the LM2100. If you're in the market for one, I think this is the one that should be on your list.

For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
