EGO 30" Mower Mulching Test Without the Side Discharge Chute

In my first EGO 30" mower video, I used the side discharge chute and noticed more clumping than I expected. A few viewers suggested trying the mower without the side discharge chute so the deck stays enclosed and the clippings can recirculate through the blades. That made sense to me, so this is a quick follow-up test using the mulching setup without the side discharge chute. For this test, the grass was exactly one week since the last mow, and I picked a shaded section of the yard where the grass tends to grow a little longer. I cut a test strip in turbo mode, reviewed the clippings, and then mowed the rest of the backyard using mostly level 2 with turbo mode in the taller areas. Overall, I liked the result better without the side discharge chute. The clippings were still visible, but they seemed to be spread out more evenly instead of collecting to one side.
