Asking yourself: “What is the best battery-powered cordless lawnmower for me?”
Good news: this buying guide is for you.
OK, you’re ready to buy a lawnmower for your small garden and you want a battery-powered cordless mower.
Nice choice. Easy to use and easy to store.
Before you make a decision, there are a few things you should consider:
- How long does it take to mow your lawn?
- How long have you got to mow your lawn?
- Do you want to cut the grass at different heights?
- Is the weight of your mower an issue?
Let us explain.
How long does it take to mow your lawn?
This is all about battery capacity and the runtime of your mower.
You want to mow your lawn in one go, obviously, so a mower with enough battery power to do the job on a single charge is what you need. The bigger your small garden is, the bigger battery and longer runtime you’ll need.
How long have you got to mow your lawn?
Some people don’t mind spending time with their lawn, others just want to get it done. We understand.
If you want to get the lawn mowed as quickly as possible, going up and down as few times as you can, you need a mower with a wider cutting width. However, this type of mower is normally heavier and bulkier.
Do you want to cut the grass at different heights?
If you want to cut your grass at different heights, which a lot of lawns can need throughout the year, you should go for a mower that allows you to easily adjust the cutting height.
Easy for you and good for your lawn.
Is the weight of your mower an issue?
Nobody likes struggling around with their mower because it’s too heavy. Nobody likes a bad back.
So, you should always buy a mower that you can move around, use and store easily.
Which cordless lawnmower should you buy?
Now that you’ve considered the things above – or already got that info to hand – it’s time to look at the best mowers for you.
