Spring has sprung and the task of grass cutting or lawn mowing is on our minds. For some of us it is a great pleasure and a chance to spend time outdoors, for others it is more of a time consuming chore.
At Davd Dixons, this month we’re going to look at the popular and upcoming options, as everyone is different, has a different lifestyle, varying amounts of free time (and ideas on how it should be spent), energy and enthusiasm.
Hand push cylinder mower
These are self powered and have seen a recent comeback as it is also a good form of exercise, ideal for small town gardens, if used regularly they give an excellent finish and stripes of course. The lawn needs to be mown twice per week in the growing season or pushing becomes difficult and finish is poor.
Mains or Battery mower
Good, quick and easy solution for those who do not want to handle petrol or pull start a machine, small to medium sized lawns.
Petrol powered rotary mower
Modern petrol engines allow easy starting , available in push, fixed or variable self drive, for medium to larger lawns. Mulch or collect, 4 wheel or rear roller, giving the stripe effect.
Petrol powered ride on
Known to us as tractors and riders, for larger to very large lawns, sit back and enjoy your mowing! Collecting and mulch models available in all sizes.
Robotic lawnmower
Pioneered more than 20 years ago, this mowing revolution is taking Europe by storm. This mower cuts your grass to perfection, every day for less than 10% of the cost of petrol for your ride on, it will cut in the rain, so you don’t have to base your life around lawn mowing and have free time as well as a freshly cut lawn.
