If you're looking for a new lawnmower, whether to replace an old failing model or because you've just bought a new home, you'll no doubt be faced with a lot of options to choose from. Riding mowers, zero turn mowers, push behind, and even the classic reel mower are all potential choices. Let's look at which one is going to be right for your needs.
One of the biggest things in making your decision is the size of the space you're going to be mowing. If you're dealing with a large yard or acreage with a large lawn, a riding mower might be the right choice for you. The newest styles are what's known as "zero turn" mowers which make them easier to maneuver into tight corners and other spots. But if you're dealing with a smaller yard a riding mower is likely overkill. It might even make the job harder rather than easier.
You'll also have to choose gas or electric - or good old people-powered push mowers. Electric mowers generally need less preventative maintenance than gas models, and they're a heck of a lot easier to start. You'll be limited by the length of the electrical cord, though, and they don't usually put out as much power as a gas lawnmower. This is partly going to come back to the size of your yard and whether or not an extension cord is going to let you reach everything.
Before you decide on which brand and model of lawnmower you're going to buy, it's a good idea to do a bit of research. Check the reviews and ratings for the mowers you're considering on the internet, or pick up a copy of a magazine like Consumer Reports, with a comparison of current models. If a particular brand and/or model has a lot of problems, this will usually alert you to it before you buy.
Beyond your lawnmower, you're likely going to be buying more tools as well, such as tillers, hedge trimmers and leaf blowers. You'll have to make a lot of the same decisions for these tools, such as gas vs. electric and what brand and model to choose.
Putting a little time in before making your purchase can save you a lot of hassle in the future. You'll get more use out of your tools and won't have to replace them for longer, so it can also help you save money.
