How to Choose the Best Lawn Mower: Buying Guide

✅ Why Choose Carefully

The lawnmower is the fundamental tool for maintaining a lawn that is always well-groomed, uniform and healthy. Choosing the right model affects cutting efficiency, comfort of use and final results. Every garden has different needs: size, slope, presence of obstacles and type of grass influence the choice between an electric, battery-powered, petrol-powered or robotic lawnmower.

🔍 Types of Lawn Mowers

🔌 Corded electric lawnmower

Economical, lightweight and easy to use. Ideal for small or medium gardens, with a flat surface and a nearby electrical outlet. Extension cord required.

🔋 Battery powered lawnmower

Silent, cordless and easy to maneuver. Perfect for urban gardens, up to 300–500 m². Variable autonomy, excellent for those looking for practicality and zero emissions.

🔥 Petrol lawnmower

Powerful and autonomous. Suitable for large surfaces (over 500 m²), sloping terrain or tall grass. It requires periodic maintenance but guarantees high performance.

🤖 Robotic lawnmower

Cuts autonomously with intelligent navigation and automatic recharging. Ideal for those who want a lawn that is always perfect without manual intervention. Perfect for flat or slightly inclined surfaces.

🛠️ Manual helical lawnmower

It works without a motor. Silent, eco-friendly and lightweight. Suitable for small areas and frequent cuts, where precision is more important than speed.

🛠️ What to Consider When Choosing

Garden surface area

  • Up to 200 m² → 18V battery or 1000–1300W electric

  • 200–600 m² → 36–40V battery or 125–150 cc petrol engine

  • Over 600 m² → powerful blast or programmable robot

Cutting system

  • Rotary blade: versatile for all surfaces

  • Helical: precise cutting for well-groomed lawns

  • Mulching: cuts and shreds the grass, fertilizing the lawn

Cutting width and height

Collection or unloading

  • Grass collector: for tidy gardens
