Walk Behind Lawn Mowers

Find a walk-behind lawn mower that suits your lawn, your workload and the finish you want to achieve. Whether you’re a homeowner maintaining a carefully tended garden, a professional gardener managing customers’ lawns, or a groundskeeper caring for larger grassed areas, choosing the right mower starts with how and where you’ll use it.

Explore rotary and cylinder mowers, with petrol and battery-powered options for different mowing routines. Compare cutting width, cutting-height range, drive controls, grass collection and maintenance requirements rather than choosing on power alone.

Which type of mower should I choose?

A rotary mower is a practical choice for general lawn maintenance and mixed mowing conditions. A cylinder mower suits regularly maintained turf where a precise cut and presentation are priorities. For a striped finish, look for a suitable roller-equipped model, and check that its cutting-height range matches your lawn.

Is a self-propelled mower worth considering?

Self-propelled drive reduces the effort of pushing the mower, making it worth considering for larger lawns and longer mowing sessions. Compare operating weight, speed adjustment and ease of turning, particularly if your garden has beds, trees or narrow access points.

Should I choose battery or petrol?

Battery-powered mowers offer mowing without petrol handling or exhaust emissions at the point of use. Check the supplied batteries and charger, expected runtime and charging arrangements against your workload. Petrol models are another option for extended mowing sessions where refuelling is more practical than recharging.

What size mower do I need?

A wider cutting deck can reduce the number of passes across open lawns, but it must still fit through gates and storage entrances. Smaller cutting widths can be easier to manoeuvre around obstacles. Consider collection capacity too, alongside whether the model supports mulching or discharge.

Check each product listing for its intended use, included equipment and maintenance needs. For sloping ground, follow the individual manufacturer’s operating limits rather than assuming that self-propelled drive makes a mower suitable.
