How to Choose the Right Mower for Your Lawn
Choosing the right lawnmower for your property isn’t always as simple as it sounds. Not only is there a wide variety of mowers on the market, but it can be difficult trying to figure out how one model differs from the other. To help clear up some of the confusion and help you select the perfect mower for your lawn, we’ve written up the helpful buyer’s guide below!
Push or Walk-Behind Mowers
If you find yourself mowing the lawn on very rare occasions, or have very little property to cover, a self-propelled mower—or push mower—may be a perfect choice. These models require very little care, as they have no engines or electrical equipment to maintain, and are great for the very occasional mow. However, they can quickly become tedious to use if you have an average-sized suburban lawn. In this case, it’s much better to purchase a walk-behind model, as its handy engine will make mowing your lawn a much more efficient experience.
Riding Mowers and Lawn Tractors
Riding mowers are the perfect choice for buyers who are looking for a quick and efficient mow for a very large area of land. These lawnmowers are not only fast but effective, thanks to their impressive deck range and adjustable settings. If you have quite a few obstacles to cut around, you can purchase a zero-turn model to carefully cut around objects or turn on a dime.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, we have lawn tractors. While these machines aren’t nearly as fast as riding mowers, they’re arguably just as effective. A lawn tractor’s powerful motor can handle huge pieces of land, while also performing a number of other helpful landscaping tasks. While you’ll need to buy a few accessories for this machine, lawn tractors are a great choice if you’re looking for one piece of equipment to care for all of your heavy-duty landscaping tasks!
