A lawn tractor is a large investment so you need to make sure you choose wisely before buying.
And remember that these machines have uses throughout the year, not just the months when the grass is growing.
So these machines from Lawnflite deserve serious consideration. Yes they are excellent at cutting large formal lawns, paddocks and larger grassed areas, but think how much use you could get out of one if you combined it with a garden trailer.
Special offer: Utility steel tipping trailer
No more barrowing compost and fertilizers around or trying to shift heavier stuff like logs for the fire or sand and gravel for a new patio.
For this summer we are giving away a free steel lawn trailer with each Lawnflite garden tractor.
These trailers have a steel bed and can take a load of 340kg have a recommended retail price of £219.
Lawnflite manufactures a wide range of garden tractors. The entry level machine is their Lawnflite RF125 Lawn & Garden Tractor, a side discharge machine with a tight turning circle and a 96cm cutting width.
With a Briggs & Stratton engine it is ideal for small orchards and paddocks and for trimming grass paths but you can buy a mulch kit and a grass catcher as extras so it can take on larger lawns as well.
The transmatic transmission makes it very easy to drive and the pivoting front axle means it can take uneven ground in its stride.
It costs £1349, £100 of the recommended price, has a two year warranty and we deliver it free within two to three working days of receiving your order.
The same company’s 908LH Lawn & Garden Tractor is made to tackle areas up to 10,000m2 and is fitted with a powerful Briggs & Stratton 18.5hp engine engineered for a long life.
Again, easy to manoeuvre with a hydrostatic drive, it has a 240-litre grass box which can be emptied from the driver’s seat and has twin blades which create a terrific force of air so that it will collect grass even when it’s wet – something handy in an English summer.
The cutting deck has small anti-scalp wheels to help it follow the contours of the lawn without scalping it.
Cutting heights from30mm to 95mm, disc brakes and twin headlights make this a really top machine – it even has an attachment on the cutting deck which takes a garden hose so cleaning it out at the end of the day is fast, safe and simple.
It costs £2399, £250 off the recommended retail price, is delivered free within five to seven days and has a two year warranty.
