Moving house on Thursday, and I'm going to need a new lawnmower. My 20 year old petrol Fly is beyond economic repair. I started Googling and I became overwhelmed by choice, there's gazillions of brands making gazillions of models. Help!
Fairly small 'lawn' (*I'll come back to that) maybe 400 square metres, plus a couple of other side bits. Needs to be petrol.
Make? Webb, Mountfield, Honda, Ryobi, plus about a dozen others I'd not heard of before. I'm guessing most are made in China and might be the same model rebranded.
I'm guessing about 20" cut, or so?
Rotary I think. Self propelled?
Engine size? Honda? Briggs & Stratton? Any other?
Electric or cord pull start?
Plastic deck? Metal? Pressed steel? Aluminium?
No need for stripes.
Discuss and recommend please. Thanks.
*To describe it as lawn is being more than kind, it's sort of bumpy, soft, green stuff. Rabbits seem to be at home eon it. Mixture of meadow grass, moss and lawn type grass. It's never going to be a lawn.
