Ten top machines to keep the lawn looking good through the summer months, many new and exclusive

Typical summer, showers, sunshine, packed roads.

And lawns still growing vigorously after the recent hot spell ended with thunderstorms and strong winds.

This has had the effect of producing more summer growth than usual and lawns are still looking verdant with plenty of lush growth.

If you’re one of the sensible ones who have left beaches and roads to the hordes and prefer to stay at home, you’ll doubtless be looking to keep the lawn in tip-top condition.

So here are ten machines to help, some for small lawns, others for rolling acres and there’s even a brilliant little machine to keep scrub and thick weeds in order.

 

Many are exclusive to us and all are at the keenest of prices with unbeatable delivery times.

First is a really tough machine, traditionally made with smaller lawns in mind.

The Morrison Surecut 3-in-1 Petrol Push Lawnmower has a 125 Briggs & Stratton engine designed to fire up quickly and be comparatively quiet in running.

This mower lets you either collect the clippings – there’s a 42-litre grass box – or discharge them at the back or you can mulch when conditions allow.

It has a really low 15mm cutting height but there are six settings up to 35mm and being a push mower it is easy to navigate your way around borers and paths.

These top quality machines are exclusive to MowDirect and with this one there is a FREE 10-litre jerry can worth £24.95.

We deliver the mower free the next working day and there is a five-year warranty.

Next is another hand-propelled model this one made by a leading European manufacturer in Italy.

The Oleo-Mac G53-TK Comfort Petrol Self-Propelled Lawn Mower, currently on special offer.

This is a self-propelled mower, sturdily built, and powered by a 159cc Emak engine and trundles along at a comfortable 3.6km/h.

With a 51cm width of cut it is suitable for medium-sized lawns, say up to 1200m2.

It has a 60-litre grass box and cutting heights are from 28mm to 75mm.

The mower has a powder-coated finish to resist the inevitable scratches and resist corrosion.

It costs £239, £150 less than the maker’s recommended price and has a five year warranty. You can buy a mulch plug for an extra £20.

We deliver it free the next working day.

From Italy to Germany for the next one, a mower on special limited offer.

Einhell GC-PM 56 SHW 5-in-1 Hi-Wheel Self-Propelled Petrol Lawn Mower is a really solid German-engineered machine with a wide cut and a host of ways of dealing with the clippings making it an ideal machine for orchards and paths and small paddocks as well as lawns.

With this one you can collect the clippings in the 80-litre grass box, mulch them and return them to the lawn, cut a drop them under the machine, or discharge them to the back or side.

Now for one from a leading British brand.

Now a couple of mowers fitted with rear rollers.

Mowers like this have the advantage that they will leave a neat, striped finish, an ideal way of showing off a well-manicured garden.

But they also mean you can cut close the paths and the edges of borders without the risk of the mower falling into the flowers.

Lawnflite LF48-SPBR Self-propelled Rear- Roller Lawn Mower comes from an American manufacturer and is fitted with a Briggs & Stratton 161cc engine.

It costs £599 and has a reassuring five-year warranty.

Another new mower and one again exclusive to MowDirect is the Redback E137C Cordless Lawnmower (Tool Only).

This one relies on the latest lithium-ion battery for power, and once you have the powerpack and charger you can other compatible buy tools at very tempting prices.

A dial on the handlebar indicates the amount of charge in the battery.

It costs £149, £50 off the price recommended and it has a three-year warranty. We deliver it free the next working day.

Now a smashing little machine which has proved a best seller for a few years now.

The MD Tondu Wheeled Trimmer Mower is a really easy way to clear large areas of thick weeds and scrub and is easily pushed over uneven ground, along verges and down banks.

A 160cc engine powers a strimming head with thick nylon line, with the head held forward on a snub nose so it can work under low-hanging branches and close to wall edges and fences and up to hedge boundaries.

The machine itself is based on a rugged steel frame and runs on 14in spoked wheels and rubber tyres.

It costs £279, £120 off the recommended price and is delivered free the next working day with a two-year warranty.

And sometimes lawns are just too big even for a wide cut lawnmower but don’t justify a full-blown lawn tractor and that’s where this great little Lawnflite Mini Rider 60RDE Ride-On Mower comes into its own.

This a very easy-to-drive machine with a Briggs & Stratton engine and shift-on-the-go transmission with six gears.

This one has a 96cm-wide cutting deck, and yet it has a turning radius of just 46cm.

The mid-back seat and light-touch steering means you can drive this tractor for several hours in comfort.

Cutting heights are from 30cm to 95cm with five options and you can buy a grass box as an optional extra. The mulch plug, which normally costs £79, is free.

It is a great buy at just £1299, is normally delivered free within two to three working days and has a two year warranty.

But if you order by 3pm Friday you can be cutting grass the following day for an extra charge.
