Your Choice of the Best Electic Lawn Mowers
When buying a lawn mower it is important to first decide upon which type you need. The good news is that at Garden Power Tools we have broken down the mowers into distinct categories, such as petrol, cordless electric, manual and corded electric. In this corded electric category we will be discussing how to choose the best electric lawn mower and then recommending our top picks for you.
#1 – Noise
The first thing to note is that the noise levels of electric machines is much lower than petrol powered ones. This is good for smaller gardens and when you have neighbours that are close.
#2 – Running Costs
The maintenance and running costs of an electric mower are very low, probably the lowest you can get out of any mower. The parts nowadays like the blade should last many years and you have an unlimited supply of fuel from the plug socket! You don’t need to replace oil, spark plugs and petrol, either.
#3 – Maneuverability
The one thing about a corded mower that can be a bit of a problem is that it always needs to be plugged in. If you obstacles in your garden, such as washing lines, slides and trees, it can be a little frustrating to use.
