A well-groomed lawn is the pride of the owners. An electric lawn mower will help you cut and trim your grass weekly. The tool is light in weight and easy to operate, inexpensive, and is used wherever a trimmer can be connected to a 220 V network. Several types of mowers are used for processing small landscape areas.

Signs of a lawnmower include: cutting tool, wheels and handles. Electrical devices have a compact motor with a power cord. Use a grass catcher container under the mowed grass or dump the chopped remains onto the lawn. They use drum and rotary type, manual and self-propelled, with a motor power from 300 to 1800 W.

The choice of an electric lawn mower depends on the nature of the lawn. If you have a small lawn in your country garden, with growing trees and shrubs, a nimble two-wheeled reel mower will help. On a flat area, it will easily pass between the trunks, leaving behind neatly trimmed grass. The drum is equipped with a set of longitudinal cutters, which are height-adjustable. The tool is weak and can process no more than 2 acres per day.

Four wheels mounted on a frame, in the middle of which a knife or cross is mounted, protected by a body or deck - a sign of a rotary mower. If only the cutter is driven by an electric motor, the tool is not self-propelled. The engine rotates the blade and the wheels of the cart - this is a self-propelled electric lawn mower.

Equipment is selected based on the combination of components and functionality:

• engine power;
• wheel arrangement;
• front or rear drive is used;
• grass removal system;
• design features;
• materials used for the manufacture of tools.

The quality of the product depends on the manufacturer's experience in producing trimmers. The ability to offer the client the best tool in terms of functionality at an adequate price makes the company successful.

The choice of a lightweight electric lawn mower is considered correct if it will work on a lawn with soft grass. For safety reasons, you should not go out into the field early in the morning until the dew has cleared, or mow during the day, after it has rained. The quiet buzz of the trimmer does not irritate others.

A tool with a power of up to 400 W cannot be self-propelled; movement will require additional energy. Driven rotary mowers are equipped with a motor starting from 900 W.

What is important to consider when choosing a tool? The greater the engine power, the heavier and more productive the equipment. The indicator affects the width of the processed strip, the heating rate of the engine, and productivity.

The working part must consist of a system for adjusting the height of the bevel, a knife made of high-quality steel, a deck or a casing. The higher the deck, the greater the centripetal acceleration imparted to the beveled remains. The space is not clogged, the packing in the bag is tight, mulch can be cut. The wide blades of the knife also contribute to this. The width of the cut depends on the section of the deck. For electric tool it is less than for gasoline

Wheel sets for self-propelled mowers vary in size. Large wheels make movement easier, while small wheels provide maneuverability. Their installation should not prevent the cutter from approaching the fence. Not all manufacturers take this into account. Wide wheels with rubber tread cause less damage to the lawn. Plastic wheel bushings are inferior to metal hubs with ball bearings. If the wheelset can turn, this will add to the maneuverability of the chassis,

The grass bag is used soft or frame. It is easier to remove contents from a large basket and there is less resistance. Folding handles are more convenient. The housing is made of high-quality plastic for a lawn mower and resists impacts and does not form scratches or dents. Steel is better only if it is completely stamped from one sheet of steel.

The best electric lawn mower

When choosing an electric lawn mower, you need to take into account all the advantages and disadvantages of the device. If you compare a drive car with a gasoline car, it will lose in mobility, power and operation in any weather. But the electric scythe works quietly and does not release foul gases. One-button control and the light weight of the device make it feasible for an elderly person.

Choosing an electric lawn mower involves knowing many technical intricacies. When looking for a model, it is wise to trust the recommendations of experts who compile reliability ratings and reviews from owners.

In the class of rotary non-self-propelled electric lawn mowers, Vladimir Turov (used for 2 years), Natalya (used for 4 seasons), Alexey Rovkin (bought 2 months ago) left grateful reviews for Al-Co, the manufacturer of the Classis 3.82 model. The comments note the low price, light weight, 13 kg, and quiet operation. Gripper 38 cm, power 1.4 kW, knife speed 3200 rpm. The machine copes with the task of processing 2 acres in 4 hours. The user writes that the grass catcher is small, but he removes it if he mows tall grass. The machine cuts close to the fence, additional processing not required. Natalya notes that with the transfer of production to China, the quality of parts has decreased compared to the same European-assembled machine, which served her for 11 years.

Owners of large suburban areas can acquire a powerful electric trimmer. The Stiga Combi 48ES model has a 1.8 kW engine, a swath of 48 cm and a wheel cross section of 18/24 cm. The steel body protects the mechanisms well from damage. The handle adjusts to height and folds. The machine is wide, stable, and cuts old thick grass well. It took Gennady 2 days to process 15 acres of neglected lawn. The design is such that the deck protrudes beyond the level of the wheels. Not a blade of grass remains near the fence, but the body is a little peeled off. The author notes the good handling and easy movement of the car due to the large wheels. The disadvantage is the presence of one operating mode and spinning the knife to operating speed within a minute. The price of the equipment is 22,600 rubles.

As a result, a well-known manufacturer with its model Makita ELM 3710 was included in the anti-rating. Absolutely all products of this brand have rear wheels that protrude from the body and break.
