Which lawn mower to choose?
Let's answer the question of how to choose it so that it does its job efficiently and satisfactorily. After all, it's an investment for years to come, with the goal of providing users with comfort. We cordially invite you for a handful of information that will help you with your purchases.

Introduction to the world of lawnmowers - basic information

Although lawnmowers can be standardly divided into 3 basic categories, many distributors and manufacturers opt for more groups. Classically, we distinguish between electric, petrol and manual mowers. In addition, we can also break them down into automatic, tractors and by parameters (e.g., power, clipping width, garbage can capacity, etc.).).

Jaką kosiarkę do trawy wybrać?

On the market you can find a division into mowers with or without a drive. The first group is great for large spaces, because you don't have to use muscle power. The other is an excellent purchase for small gardens, as the mowers are much lighter, smaller, easier to control and fit into nooks and crannies.

Types of lawnmowers - breakdown by type of power supply

Now that you know that lawnmowers can be cataloged by type of power supply, it's worth moving on to the practical part. We hope that with our tips, your choice will become obvious.

Petrol mowers

You have to face a lawn that has not been tended for a long time? In that case, a petrol lawn mower is a great option. By using oil and gasoline, you don't have to worry about running out of wire or batteries. Just fill up with fuel and you can keep mowing. Its power and efficiency are much higher, so it will cope well with tall grasses.

Frequently asked questions

Customers often ask about the equipment and its operation before buying their first mowers. We present you with answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about products such as amateur or professional lawn mowers.

How to sharpen a lawn mower blade?

First, remove the propeller or blades. This usually only requires unscrewing the nut from the stem, so the first step is relatively simple. Then, using a file, grinder, disc or other sharpener, you need to sharpen the components. There should be arrows or pointers on the knife to indicate the side of sharpening. In the last step, check that the part is properly balanced. This is very important, because an imbalance in operation can have a negative impact on the mower's arbor and engine.

How to check the balance of a knife?

Place a screwdriver, or pencil, in the mounting hole of the knife or propeller, and place it on a level surface. If either side prevails, it means that it is heavier and an adjustment should be made.

Which mower for tall grass?

The perfect solution is a professional lawn mower, an advanced petrol lawn mower, a handheld mower or it can be a mower. All models should be fuel-powered, as they offer high power that can perfectly handle a neglected property. If you have the choice between a powered or unpowered mower, it is better to take an interest in the second group or switch off the support.

How much electricity does an electric mower use?

It all depends on the area of your property and the tools themselves. Let's say you bought an 1800W model and it takes you about 60 minutes to cut the grass. At a rate of £0.50 per kWh, the result is about £0.90. As you can see, this is a very attractive proposition for people with a small garden who spend about an hour a week on lawn care.

Are cordless mowers cost-effective?

Depends on how far the lawn that needs mowing is from the power source. Advanced models (such as the Hecht 5051) are prepared to mow areas of up to 800 m2.

Summary

Buying a lawn mower is not easy. The market is now so expansive that you can not only tailor the assortment to your individual needs, but also to your budget. However, if you want to ensure that you and your loved ones are satisfied with your investment, you should consider high-end products and manufacturers. Great materials and innovative designs will be a purchase for years to come. We hope that with our tips, each of you will be able to cope with shopping for the right mower.
