So why, you may well ask, are we talking about lawnmowers when we’ve just had a blast of wintery conditions.
Well, the grass is still slowly growing and with a few days of warmer weather forecast there is still time to venture forth and take the tops off the lawn.
And here’s something new and different, a lawnmower with headlights.
The EGO LM2000EKIT Power+ Cordless Lawnmower has a powerful lithium-ion battery producing 56V, the most powerful garden machinery battery produced, and giving performance similar to petrol power.
And this great mower, as well as being light and easy to push, even has LED headlights so you can see your way around in the winter gloom.
The cutting width is 49cm so you can tackle larger lawns quickly, the motor will run for 45 minutes and it takes 30 minutes to re-charge the battery.
Cutting heights are from 25mm to 80mm with five settings.
The clippings can be either discharged to the side, collected in the 60 litre grass box or mulched and returned to the lawn (but save this feature to the warmer weather in the summer.)
It costs £469, £30 lower than the recommended retail price and there is free next working day delivery and a five year warranty.
