Ready to upgrade your lawn mower but unsure which one is right for your yard and budget? Let us guide you with these key questions:
Mulching vs. Bagging
- Do you want to save time and improve your lawn’s health? If yes, a mulching mower could be the best choice. Models like the Recycler finely chop grass, returning nutrients to the soil for a healthier lawn.
- Do you prefer a neat, clean-cut lawn? If so, bagging your clippings might be ideal, although it requires more effort and possibly a trip to the compost center if your local waste service doesn’t pick up yard waste.
Gas vs. Electric
- Are you looking for power and traditional reliability? Gas-powered mowers are strong and durable, perfect for larger lawns or tougher mowing conditions.
- Do you want a quieter, eco-friendly option with less maintenance? Electric mowers, powered by lithium-ion batteries, offer the same power as gas models without the noise, fumes, or need for fuel.
Choosing the Right Mower Model
- Do you need versatility? A 3-in-1 mower allows you to mow, mulch, and bag with a single machine, giving you the flexibility to choose what’s best for your yard each time you mow.
- Are you looking for simplicity? A 2-in-1 mower lets you either mulch and bag or mulch and side discharge, depending on your preference.
Self-Propelled vs. Push Mowers
- Is your lawn large or hilly? A self-propelled mower could save you time and energy, as it powers itself forward, making mowing easier on tough terrain.
- Do you have a smaller, flat yard? A push mower might be more than sufficient, offering you control and a good workout while keeping your lawn neat.
Wheel Size: What You Need to Know
- Is your lawn flat and even? If so, a low-wheel mower with uniform wheel sizes should work perfectly.
- Does your lawn have rough or uneven terrain? A high-wheel mower with larger rear wheels will make it easier to navigate bumps and slopes.
Engine Types: Upgrade for Better Performance
- Still using an old, noisy mower? If you’re dealing with a 2-cycle engine that requires a gas-oil mix, it’s time to upgrade to a more modern option.
- Looking for more power and efficiency? A 4-cycle engine provides quieter operation and greater efficiency, making your mowing experience smoother.
Why Consider an Electric Lawn Mower?
- Tired of dealing with gas and oil? Electric mowers offer the same cutting power without the hassle, plus they’re quieter and more eco-friendly.
- Want versatility across yard tools? With systems like Toro’s 60V Flex-Force Power System, you can use the same batteries across multiple tools, making it a smart, sustainable choice.
