Cordless Lawn Mowers

Benefits of Buying a Cordless Lawn Mower

Quieter operation

A battery lawn mower is typically quieter than an electric or petrol one. This makes them ideal if you’re in a built-up area and don’t want everyone in the neighbourhood to know when you’re gardening!

Lightweight

Cordless lawn mowers tend to be lighter than their counterparts, and you don’t have to worry about coiling cables and storing extension leads. Not only does this mean they’re easy to use, but also easy to store.

No cables, no problem

Embrace a lawn mower without limits by using a cordless lawn mower, saving you having to worry about the cable not reaching the end of your garden. This also means they are easily transportable if you’re helping friends or family with their gardening.

Key Features to Consider

Thanks to their light weight and ease of use, a battery lawnmower is perfect for small to medium gardens and hard-to-reach areas. If you’re working with narrow pathways or navigating garden edging, check the cutting width to make sure you can mow with ease.

FAQs

How do I store a cordless lawn mower in the off-season?

Storing your battery lawn mower under cover in a shed or garden storage in the off-season is essential, as you don’t want to risk damaging the internal workings whilst not in use. Remove the battery and give your mower a good clean before putting it in storage.

Can I leave the battery on charge when not in use?

Most modern mowers have batteries which don’t overcharge, though to save on electricity we’d recommend charging it up and switching off.

Can a battery lawn mower handle wet grass?

Cordless lawn mowers, and any mower in fact, are best used on dry grass to avoid clogging.

Is it better to cut grass before or after rain?

The optimal time to mow your grass is before the rains when the lawn is dry. If you miss that window, aim to mow when the grass has fully dried after any showers.

Can I leave my cordless lawn mower outside?

Leaving your lawn mower outside can shorten its lifespan due to rust and other damage. If you must store it outdoors, invest in a heavy-duty cover to protect it from the elements.
