Ride on Mowers

If you've a large garden make your lawn mowing chore easier by getting a ride on lawn mower. Over 1200 square metres, it's a necessity.

Buying a ride on lawn mower requires a little more thought though than simply replacing the existing mower:

    Where are you going to store the mower? By their nature, even if your ride-on is a replacement for a large ordinary walk-behind mower, it will be considerably larger. Make sure you have the space and also the access in and out.

    Security. Ride-on mowers are expensive and unfortunately can attract the unsavoury elements in society, so make sure that wherever you store it is safe and locked properly. Difficulty in access from the outside road is a plus point too.

    Lawn shape, flower beds etc. ride-on mowers will have a fairly large turning circle. Modern machines have this as small as possible of course and most models are almost ridiculously maneuverable considering their size. Even so, they will not be as easy to get into small awkward shapes that you may have been able to do previously with a walk-behind model.

Off set cutting deck - this means that the cutting deck is not directly below the centre of the mower and will overhang the tyres by a small amount. Practically, it means that the mower can cut over the edge of the lawn without falling into the beds and borders. These lawn mowers are sometimes called Lawn Tractors and it is possible to buy trailers so they can be used to tow heavy or bulky items around the garden.
