How to Choose the Right Lawn Mower – Expert Guide by Boston Power Tools
A perfectly manicured lawn doesn’t just happen—it starts with the right equipment. Choosing the ideal lawn mower depends on your yard’s size, terrain, and your personal preferences. At Boston Power Tools, we’re committed to helping you make the best decision with ease, backed by reliable products and unbeatable customer service.
🌱 1. Assess the Size of Your Lawn
The size of your yard plays a big role in determining what kind of lawn mower you need:
-
Small Lawns (Up to 1/4 Acre)
✔ Manual reel mowers or lightweight electric mowers are ideal—quiet, efficient, and easy to maneuver. -
Medium Lawns (1/4 to 1/2 Acre)
✔ Consider a corded or cordless electric mower, or a gas-powered push mower for stronger performance and broader coverage. -
Large Lawns (Over 1/2 Acre)
✔ A self-propelled gas mower or a riding lawn mower will save time and energy, especially on uneven terrain.
⚙️ 2. Choose the Right Type of Lawn Mower
There are several categories of lawn mowers, each suited for different needs:
-
Manual Reel Mowers
-
Eco-friendly, quiet, no fuel or batteries needed. Best for very small, flat lawns.
-
-
Electric Mowers (Corded or Cordless)
-
Low-maintenance and lightweight. Corded models require an outlet; cordless options offer flexibility but rely on battery runtime.
-
-
Gas-Powered Mowers
-
Ideal for larger lawns and thicker grass. Offers powerful performance and longer runtime.
-
-
Self-Propelled Mowers
-
Great for sloped or uneven yards—motorized wheels reduce physical effort.
-
-
Riding Lawn Mowers
-
Perfect for large properties. Allows you to sit and steer with ease, often with advanced features and wider cutting decks.
-
🔍 3. Consider Key Features
When comparing models, look out for these helpful features:
-
Cutting Width: A wider blade means fewer passes and faster mowing.
-
Height Adjustment: Easily change the cutting height to suit different grass types.
-
Mulching, Bagging, or Side Discharge: Some mowers offer all three, allowing you to manage clippings how you prefer.
-
Push vs. Self-Propelled: Choose based on the terrain and your comfort level.
-
Storage Features: Foldable handles or compact bodies are great for tight spaces.
🏞️ 4. Know Your Terrain
-
Flat Yards: Any mower will work—manual or push mowers are usually sufficient.
-
Hilly or Bumpy Terrain: Self-propelled or all-wheel-drive mowers provide better traction and control.
