Ace hardware carries them here as well as HD

 

Yea got ace close.i think ego will end up in lowes and greenworks will be pushed out.

 

What is this home depot reset? Anymore info on that?

Curious to drop Ego, they seem to sell a lot of it in my local store and it seems a popular brand. Never tried it tho.

 

the more i go to HD.. the more i don't want to go to HD.. getting pretty put out with our local store.. more junk and the good stuff is only sold online.. and them saying that it is a "special" order that way.. no discounts.. that's what i was told..

 

I've noticed that too. Anytime a high quality item I would want shows up on a HD search its "not available in stores". It's dogcrap and I always buy from someone else when I see that.

 

wonder who will fill this vaccum.

Lowes.
"EGO products will be available online at Lowes.com and in select stores in fall 2020 and will roll out to all U.S. stores nationwide by February 2021"

Good win for Lowes

 

Agreed. My guess is that HD is looking to prioritize their Milwaukee display, at the expense of the competition.

 

Well crap. I just bought at homedepot my first battery op piece of equipment for lawn work ... The ego 24" hedge trimmer. Today. Even bought the 2 year warranty extension. Well at least it has a 90 day try and see. A third of the cost of my redmax trimmers. I don't expect it to compete but would be a nice addition if it is any good.

 

I've been a shopper at HD for years because it doesn't suck as much as Lowe's. With ace hardware stepping up, keeling supply and 2 great lumber yards I don't need HD. They are junkier than ever and almost never have everything on my list.

 

Maybe it’s because my closest HD is pretty new, but I really like it. Helpful employees, carry echo and Honda if I happen to need something for one of those. And a Starbucks make your own coffee, hot chocolate machine. Only problem I have is Lowe’s is within a mile as the crow flies from my bouse, and Ace 1/2 mile from it. And both are great for miscellaneous items, paint, nuts / bolts, plumbing what nots, tools, etc.
That said, I buy my lawn equipment from dealers, not big box.
