We have a wide variety of ride on lawn mower models
The more modern models of ride on mowers are easy to start as they have hydrostatic transmission. This gives them a greater torque, which is far easier to control. Although they cost a little more, the extra expense is worth it for ease of use.
What makes the price of a mower is generally based on which materials it’s made from. Those that have steel decks will generally be a little more expensive. Other deck materials used include aluminium or hard composite plastic.
On most models, you’ll find that there is a hole in the housing where the cut grass is expelled to either the side or the rear. On some models there is a bag fitted to catch the cuttings. Designed with twin blades to facilitate mulching or shredding, they produce grass that can be used to fertilise and retain moisture.
Before you buy your ride on lawn mower
Before you go ahead and purchase your ride on mower, if you can, sit down on it to see whether it’s going to be a comfortable ride for you. You can expect to find a different seating arrangement on each machine, in addition to an engine that sounds different on each one. If you can ride a mower first, then you’ll get a feel for how that particular model is.
Don’t buy a mower just because it’s cheap. Ideally you’ll have friends who have some experience on ride on mowers so that they can share their findings with you. You should also take time to talk to the sales person to understand which ride on mower will suit your lawn.
