Choosing The Right Lawnmowers

Lawn Size: Small gardens up to 100 square metres suit compact 320-340mm corded electric or 18V cordless models. Medium gardens (100-250 square metres) benefit from 36V cordless mowers with 380-400mm cutting widths, whilst larger lawns and professional applications require 440mm+ models with extended battery capacity or 240v corded power for unlimited runtime.

Power Source: Corded electric mowers deliver consistent power for smaller gardens near power outlets. Cordless battery-powered models provide maximum flexibility for larger gardens, irregular shapes, or professional multi-site work. Manual cylinder mowers suit small, flat lawns with zero running costs.

Cutting System: Rotary mowers handle varied grass conditions, longer growth, and uneven terrain, making them the versatile choice for most applications. Cylinder mowers deliver superior cut quality for ornamental lawns but require regular maintenance and perform best on level, well-maintained grass.

Battery Compatibility: If you already own cordless tools, choosing a mower compatible with your existing battery platform (such as Bosch Power4All or DeWalt 36V) maximises your investment and ensures spare batteries are available for extended runtime.

Safety Information

Always wear sturdy enclosed footwear, long trousers, and safety glasses when operating any lawnmower to protect against flying debris. Thoroughly inspect the lawn and remove stones, wire, or debris that could become dangerous projectiles. Never operate mowers on wet grass, which creates slip hazards and increases electric shock risk with corded models. Always use a residual current device (RCD) when operating 240v equipment outdoors as required by UK electrical safety standards. Disconnect power or remove batteries before performing maintenance, cleaning, or blade inspection, and never clear blockages whilst the mower is running.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cutting width do I need for my lawn?

For gardens up to 100 square metres, a 320-340mm cutting width offers good manoeuvrability. Medium gardens of 100-250 square metres work well with 380-400mm models, whilst lawns exceeding 250 square metres benefit from 440mm or wider cutting widths to reduce mowing time and improve efficiency.

Should I choose a corded or cordless lawnmower?

Corded electric mowers offer unlimited runtime and consistent power, ideal for smaller gardens up to 200 square metres where cable management is practical. Cordless models provide superior convenience without cable limitations, essential for larger gardens, irregular shapes, or professional use across multiple sites.

How long does a cordless lawnmower battery last?

Runtime depends on battery capacity and grass conditions. Typically, an 18V 4.0Ah battery provides 20-30 minutes of cutting time for small to medium gardens. Professional 36V systems with 4.0Ah or larger batteries achieve 45-60 minutes of runtime. Most users managing larger lawns invest in a spare battery for uninterrupted operation.
