What kind of lawn mower to buy

In today's selection, we reviewed the top five lawn mowers. Each of them has a high-quality assembly, which allows you not to worry about the service life. And if you choose between them, then you need to focus only on the area of ​​the site you are processing.

1. If it is very large, then you need to look towards AL-KO 119011 Silver 470 BR Premium and Makita PLM4620.The first option is preferable, since the AL-KO product is able to move independently, while the Makita product must be pushed alone.

2. If you cut only a small lawn near the house, you can save by purchasing Bosch ARM 37( 0.600.8A6.201).This model works by an electric grid and has not the most high-power engine. However, the lawn mower has enough basic facilities for processing a small area. Just do not expect low noise. It is exactly the same as that of gasoline models.

4. Well, the Robomow RS630 is designed for those who have all the time left to earn money, and the need to cut the lawn, however, has not gone anywhere. The robot will do it for you. It can act either automatically or by accepting commands from a smartphone or tablet. While such a lawnmower is considered a miracle of technology, in connection with which it is extremely expensive.
