Is the new, powerful 48V machine worth the price? Let’s find out…

GTech are well-known in the UK for their popular cordless lawnmowers that offer incredible ease of use in the garden. They also constantly release new products with all the latest updates based on continuous research.

The GTech Lawnmower Battle: 2.0 vs CLM50

GTech already had a pretty perfect product in their previous mower, which is why they received a 9.2 rating in my review. And they were smart enough to know that if you’ve got something perfect, you shouldn’t mess with it.

The new CLM50 version doesn’t have any of the core features removed, but is built with the latest technology available. This ensures a much more powerful performance, better durability, and a longer lifespan.

Besides that, the new lawnmower has a white finish which gives it that elegant feel and looks much better out in the garden sunlight.

The new model looks very different in white but has the same core features

But the main performance-related improvement comes in the blades. They feature the latest omniblade cutting technology that ensures you always get the power you need.

Battery-powered lawnmowers have long been thought to be inferior to petrol or corded electric ones, but with technological developments such as this one, the difference has become almost unnoticeable, especially for average home users. 

The intelligent blade runs at 2,800 rpm, but if it senses extra thick grass, it increases the rpm to 3,500, making sure it can cut through anything that comes up against it!

Now that we got the differences out of the way, let’s see what makes the lawnmower one of GTech’s best-selling products.

Key Features

Let’s start by looking at the key features at a glance:

Lightweight and compact design

Great compact storage

For homeowners, one of the most important considerations when getting a lawnmower is how easy it is to use and store. The GTech Lawnmower CLM50 is one of the best on the market in that regard.

Weighing only 13.5kg and having large wheels, the mower is very easy to move around any curves in your garden. 

It’s also very easy to start – set the battery, push the activation button, and pull the lever. That’s it! 

And once you’re done mowing, you’ll be glad to know that the mower can fold to a very compact size. It won’t take up much storage space in your shed, and getting it in and out will be a breeze.

Adjustable cutting height

Easily change the cutting height

In order to have full control over the finish of your lawn, adjusting the cutting height is essential.

The height lever is very easy to use on the new Gtech CLM50 Lawnmower and is placed right next to the main handle for quick changes.

There are 5 different increments of 10mm, ranging from 30mm to 80mm. So, no matter the occasion, you will have a setting for whatever you need, from a quick tidy up to the first cut of the season.

Top Tip: Always start with a taller cutting height and work your way down gradually, otherwise you risk cutting back to the dirt if you have an uneven lawn

50L grass bin

50 litre grass collection box is sufficient for most gardens

Let’s be honest – emptying the grass bin is by far the least enjoyable task of garden work and can be a bit frustrating if you have to do it too often.

Top Tip: Get a compact compost bin (UK made) and enjoy naturally made compost all year round for your garden.

That’s why GTech have made their grass bin as big as they can, at 50L. With fewer stops to empty out the bin, you can finish the job much more quickly and without tiring yourself out.

The 50L grass bin also has a handy indicator flap that will let you know when the bag is full and needs emptying, a handy feature that ensures you don’t have to wonder and stop to check the bin.

Generous cutting width

42cm cutting width for faster cutting

With a 420mm cutting width, you won’t need too many passes on your lawn to finish the job.

This comes in very handy for older people that don’t wish to spend too much time and need a quick mowing job.

The blades also extend to the width of the wheels so you don’t miss bits or have to hang your wheels over the edge of the garden to get every last piece.

Battery-powered

Plug and play, without any cord to get in your way…

The best thing about having a battery-powered lawnmower is that there is no cable to worry about. You can roam free around your garden with no restrictions, and best of all, no petrol fumes either!

The CLM50 uses a 48V Lithium-ion battery, that can provide up to 40 minutes of run time. Once the battery is empty, you’ll be glad to know that it only takes one hour for a full charge. 

So even if you run out of battery during mowing, you can quickly recharge it while you take a tea break.

Top Tip: Purchase a spare battery from GTech to boost your mowing time without having to stop to re-charge.
