The right mower makes lawn care quick and even enjoyable; the wrong one makes it a chore. Match the machine to your garden and to how you like to work.
Start with lawn size
- Small lawns: a manual reel or compact electric mower is light, quiet and low-maintenance.
- Medium lawns: a corded or battery electric mower balances power and convenience.
- Large lawns: a petrol mower handles the workload without a cord or battery limit.
Power type at a glance
- Manual — cheapest, silent, zero emissions; best for small, flat lawns.
- Electric — easy to start, light and low upkeep; battery models free you from the cord.
- Petrol — the most power and range, but needs fuel and regular servicing.
Features worth having
- Adjustable cutting height for different seasons and grass types.
- A grass catcher for a tidy finish, or mulching to feed the lawn.
- Comfortable handle height and easy manoeuvring around beds.
Keep it running
Clean the deck after mowing, keep the blade sharp for a clean cut, and store the mower dry. A little care each season adds years of life.
Pick the mower that fits your garden and mowing becomes something you look forward to. See our Outdoor and Garden range to compare options.
