Type Of Lawn Mower
Petrol Powered – The main advantage of a petrol lawnmower is that it has no electric cable so can easily cope with large gardens. They are also much more powerful and can handle overgrown areas. The main problem with petrol mowers is they can require regular maintenance and can be rather noisy.
Electric – People that have smaller gardens will find that buying an electric mower is going to be the best solution. The main advantage of standard electric garden lawnmowers is the price. They are typically much cheaper than any other type of mower and are easy to maintain. One of the only drawbacks with the electric mower is that you have to have a power source that is nearby and they are not as powerful.
Ride On Mowers And Mini Tractors – If you are fortunate enough to own a mansion then ride on garden lawnmowers are perfect for cutting your grass. Large areas of lawn that have different shapes in them can be easily tackled with a ride on lawnmower. Like petrol mowers ride ons require a lot of maintenance and they do cost a fair amount to buy. They are however a lot of fun and are very effective for cutting large areas.
Blades
Rotary Blades – Rotary style garden lawnmowers are the most common type that you will find. You can tell they are rotary as they have blades that rotate. Rotary blades can only be a problem if you want to achieve a striped look to your lawn as they leave cut grass torn. This is why it is important to get one with a good roller if you want a striped effect on your lawn.
Cylinder Mowers – A cylinder mower is the sort with circular blades on it like the ones that you tend to push around a lawn. This can be a lot of effort but there are petrol powered cylinder mowers, however they do cost a lot. Cylinder garden lawnmowers will leave your lawn in almost an immaculate condition.
