Cutting in Style – The Best Lawnmowers in Britain

Thanks to the seasons in the UK, we don’t have to dig out the lawnmower every few weeks to cut the grass. But that does mean that when it does grow it shoots up fast and needs taming before it takes over your garden entirely.
That’s why you need a lawnmower that can leave you with a beautiful lawn and doesn’t require lots of regular maintenance. Here are some of the best lawnmowers around

Flymo Pac A Mow

In recent years the name Flymo has become a household name thanks to their wide range of affordable lawnmowers. Don’t go thinking that the £70 price tag will leave you with a poor cutting machine that will break down after the third use. This machine offers three different cutting heights and has a 29-litre collection box, leaving your garden looking pristine.

John Deere Tango E5

On the other end of the spectrum is this almost magical offering from John Deere. Fully robotic and able to handle pretty much anything you can throw at it – the Tango E5 means that you will never have to mow the grass yourself again. A full charge lets you mow an area the size of two large tennis courts and it takes bumps, weeds and other objects in its stride. The only downside of this wonderful machine – the price, at a staggering £2k! You want to make sure that you have pond protection in place to prevent this expensive machine falling into the drink – investing in good garden drainage will also make sure that this runs as smoothly as it should for the cash.

Brill Razorcut Premium 33

If you haven’t got a massive garden and don’t want to have to go through all the hassle of getting petrol every time you want to cut the grass then the Brill Razorcut may be perfect for you. This cylinder mower is a simple push along mower that gives your grass a lovely cut and leaves you feeling chipper that you’ve accomplished something off your own back. The best thing about this – once you’ve bought the mower at just £95 there are no other running costs.

Honda HRG465

Do you need something that can handle absolutely everything that you can throw at it and will stand the test of time? The Honda HRG465 is a very robust, petrol-fuelled machine that manoeuvres brilliantly, pulls itself along and is as reliable as everything Honda produces. This mower will cut through everything be it damp, long grass or rough, course weeds. At £439 this lawnmower isn’t cheap, but it will last for years and years, require very little maintenance and cut down anything in your lawn.

Black & Decker SPCM1936

Need a top of the range mower for a mid-level budget? The Black & Decker SPCM1936 could be exactly what you’re looking for. At just £200 this lawnmower crams in absolutely every feature you could expect from a top of the range mower but without the gigantic price tag. Thanks to its self-propelled motor, you can cut back your lawn with minimum effort. This electric mower can either be operated on a wire or simply battery powered, allowing you to mow the entire garden no matter how far from the house it is.
