Top 10 Lawn Tractors and Ride On Mowers for 2021

Offering the perfect compromise between a larger walk-behind mower and a smaller lawn tractor, this compact 66cm ride-on from Mountfield is aimed at those looking-after lawns up to around 2000m2. It’s powered by a high-performance 224cc Mountfield four-stroke engine with electric key start, so ignition problems will be a thing of the past; and it features a five-speed manual transmission (4 + 1), which means there’s a suitable gear for whatever grass-type or terrain you might encounter. The Mountfield 827M comes with a high-volume 150-litre catcher, which can be emptied automatically without dismounting. A mulch-plug is offered separately.

The Chipperfield C30-12 boasts a compact 61cm cutting-width that not only makes it easy to work around and between obstacles, but also makes it possible to gain access to areas beyond narrow gateways. A high-capacity 432cc (15hp) Machine perfect for your garden needs!

The compact but powerful Feider FRT-75BS125 is a logical step-up from a larger walk-behind mower and will enable you to cover a sizeable area quickly and in total comfort! Its five-speed gearbox (+ reverse) ensures there’s a suitable ground-speed for a range of terrains and grass-conditions; while its multi-stage cutting-height range combines with its three-in-one design (collect; rear-discharge; mulch) to confer excellent versatility. This 340cc model is supplied with a 170-litre grassbag and has a 76cm working-width.

Offering a whole host of practical and convenient features, including a gear-shift-free hydro drive; a twin-bladed cutter-deck; and from-the-seat grassbag emptying, the well-equipped Efco EF84/14.5-KH represents fantastic value for money. It combines a cavernous 240-litre grass-catcher with an 84cm cut, so you can be sure of rapid results over large areas; and it harnesses power from a premium engine (432cc) with OHV technology for superior durability and lower fuel-costs. Comfort features include electronic deck-engagement; an adjustable high-back seat; and electric key-start. This model will make short work of lawns and rough-grass areas up to 6000m2.

The SLT300 offers durable construction, exceptional cutting ability and wide-ranging versatility. It's the only garden-tractor on the market to offer Automatic Controlled Traction; an advanced system that provides power to both wheels when needed, thereby enabling it to handle hilly terrain and/or slippery conditions. This 127cm model has a 2-in-1 deck (mulch optional extra & side-discharge) with a rear-roller for an attractive striped finish; and a powerful 23hp Briggs & Stratton twin-cylinder OHV engine for assured performance on the largest of lawns and under the toughest conditions.

The Chipperfield C25-7 boasts a compact 61cm cutting-width that not only makes it easy to work around and between obstacles, but also makes it possible to gain access to areas beyond narrow gateways. A high-capacity 196cc (6.5hp) Machine perfect for your garden needs!

A compact 70cm cut and a 140cm turning-radius combine to make the impressively manoeuvrable Mountfield 1328H a great choice for the smaller garden. It’s capable of either bagging or mulching clippings, so it can handle a range of grass-conditions; and it boasts a seven-step cutting-height that means you’ll have no trouble creating your preferred finish. Other practical and convenient features include high-traction drive-wheels and a handy ‘collector full’ alert. Power is supplied by a 414cc OHV engine from Mountfield themselves.

The Mountfield 1538M-SD side-discharge lawn tractor represents outstanding value for money and offers an effective solution for anyone who does not need or wishes to avoid collecting grass clippings. In tall growth conditions, such as that found in paddocks and orchards, the side discharge mode neatly cuts and spreads the grass so it can be left to wilt naturally. For areas that are being mown on a more regular basis and which require a smarter appearance, the mulching function cuts and re-cuts the grass into small particles which are blown down into the turf where they decompose, returning valuable nutrients to the soil. By mowing your grass on a more regular basis you will save time, effort and money without sacrificing the standard of finish. With its powerful 452cc STIGA engine, 5 speed transmission and extra wide 98cm cut, the Mountfield 1538M SD tractor mower is suitable for lawn and garden areas up to 6000m2 and represents one of the best value lawn tractors available.

Offering a multitude of quality features, such as a high-performance twin-bladed cutter-deck; an ultra-dependable Mountfield overhead-valve engine (10.2hp); and from-the-seat grassbag emptying; this top-spec promotional model represents tremendous value-for-money. Its twin-blades are counter-rotating and produce a powerful airflow that will see even potentially troublesome damp grass driven at speed into the 200-litre catcher; while its six-speed manual transmission provides a suitable ground-speed for whatever terrain and grass-conditions you’re faced with. The Mountfield T30M’s relatively compact 84cm cutting-width makes it ideally matched to lawns up to around 5000m2 and ensures narrow access-ways can be safely negotiated. Mulch-kit optional.
