Hello,
For the first time I'm in a position where I have a lawn to take care of. Until now I've never had a need for a lawn mower. The current garden is medium size. I'm not sure how soon I'll be moving again but when I do move it'll be to another place with a garden and, I'd imagine, of similar size. I don't need anything too advanced, just something to keep the lawn trimmed so that my son can play outside.
A few options that have cropped up, but I'm in no way limited to these if another mower is better:
Bosch AHM 38 G Manual Garden Lawn Mower
~£45
I like the idea of a manual mower for convenience but I'm not sure if it'll actually require more maintenance in the long run.
Flymo Easi Glide 330VX Electric Hover Collect Lawnmower
~£70
Only reason this has caught my eye is having seen it discounted in a local supermarket.
Flymo Visimo Electric Wheeled Rotary Lawn Mower
~£60
As above, only reason this has caught my eye is having seen it discounted in a local supermarket.
I've no idea whether I should go manual, rotary or hover. I know I don't want the hassle of petrol, though. I'm hoping there is the usual OcUK 'go-to' mower (a la the Ford Mondeo!) so, please, give me your recommendations?
Thanks!
