• Country: Russia (manufactured in China)
• Cutting width (cm): 32

• Grass catcher volume (l): 25

If you have a small dacha and lawn care is carried out regularly, it makes no sense to buy a heavy-duty unit. In fact, a battery-powered model, or an electric lawn mower where performance is limited to 200 square meters, would be suitable. A kilowatt engine is installed on board. This is very little, but quite enough for working with short shoots. The grass catcher holds 25 liters of cut grass. This is also not the most impressive indicator, but you won’t be able to overheat the tool with prolonged use. Forced stops to empty the container are a blessing in this case. But the savings are obvious. Only 5 thousand rubles. It will be difficult to find a cheaper unit.

Advantages and disadvantages

• Affordable price tag
• Wide range of height adjustment

• Weak motor
• Small grass catcher capacity

Best electric robotic lawnmower

Machine AL-KO Robolinho 110

The Stavr company took the simplest path, not developing new models, but copying equipment from other manufacturers. Now we have before us an electric lawn mower, which is a copy of the German Huter tool, and its main difference from the original is its attractive price. The lack of a big name and Chinese production allowed the brand to reduce the cost of the final product while maintaining the original quality. According to reviews, the tool is reliable and durable. In addition, it is repairable and spare parts are easy to find. Of course, you shouldn’t overload it beyond the norm, but if you have a small dacha, then this model will be an excellent budget solution.

A small and inexpensive “fighter” against overgrown lawns, which impressed consumers with its silence, maneuverability and productivity.

The width of the cutting part of the blades was 34 centimeters, and the height of adjustment was limited to three modes within the range of 28-60 millimeters.

The best mid-range and premium wheeled lawn mowers

Often the ratio of price and quality becomes a predetermining factor in the choice of equipment. The same applies to lawn mowers. A high price is not always a guarantee of quality, just as the quality does not always correspond to the stated price. It is noteworthy that more expensive models of electric lawn mowers are often equipped with a central cutting height adjustment. This height can be changed manually, using a lever, without stopping the electric motor, that is, without interruption from the work process.

Trimmer

Trimmers are portable devices for cutting grass. The main manufacturers are Bosch, Stihl, Triton and others. With the help of such devices, you can maintain grass at the required height, mow stems along paths and in narrow passages, remove thickets and cut plants near fences.

They are inexpensive when compared to an electric lawn mower. Convenient and easy to use.

To start using it, it is necessary to put the device on the body of the worker and secure it with belts. The engine starts after the trimmer head is brought to the grass.

To protect against impacts against foreign elements and the ejection of sticks, a protective housing is installed that covers almost half of the cutting part.

Today two types of devices are in demand:

1. Electric - powered by 220 V. They are easy to use, make little noise, come with an adjustable handle and have an affordable price. Disadvantages: the need to connect a wire and limited action.
2. Rechargeable - operates from a power source. Such models are suitable for improving lawns in areas where there is no electrical network. Pros: noiselessness, lightness, no space restrictions, fast charging. Disadvantages: limited energy supply, high price.

When choosing a trimmer, the following parameters are taken into account:

1. Power. For household use, an electric device with a rating of 250-700 W is suitable. Utilities are choosing higher power products from 900 to 1800 watts.
2. Cutting width. When used on continuous lawns, trimmers with a cutting width of 30 to 42 cm are suitable. When processing small areas in a country house or near a multi-storey building, 25-27 cm is sufficient.
3. Weight. The ease of use and ability to work for a long time depend on the weight of the device. The weight of an electric trimmer ranges from 1.5 to 9 kg. When purchasing for a summer residence, models up to 5 kg are suitable. If there is no household network, the weight of the device increases to 7-9 kilograms.
4. Revolutions. The effectiveness of the trimmer depends on the number of revolutions. In low-power products, this parameter is up to 7,000 rpm. This is enough to treat country lawns. For frequent use, it is recommended to prefer professional models with a speed of 7,500 rpm or more.
5. Line diameter. This parameter ranges from 1.4 to 3.3 m. Products with a fishing line diameter of up to 2 mm are suitable for household purposes. When mowing thick grass and processing overgrown areas, models with thicker line from 2.4 to 3.3 mm are required.
6. Type of fastener. Trimmers are fixed on a person using one or two belts. The second type guarantees greater operator comfort and is suitable for long periods of work.
7. Cutting system. The device uses “hard” knives (plastic, metal) or a soft cutting element (fishing line). The first type is suitable for processing overgrown areas with grass with thick stems. Line trimmers are the best option for lumpy surfaces and areas near edges. Such knives are not afraid of hitting foreign objects.
8. Comfortable to hold. The indicator depends on the number and shape of the handles and the ability to balance the device. Models with a cross frame and two powerful handles are suitable for long-term work. An important point is the location of the motor. If it is located at the bottom, this increases the load on the operator, who will be able to work for several hours. If the motor is at the top, your back gets less tired.
9. Battery capacity. For devices with batteries, an important parameter is the battery capacity. It is measured in A/h. On average, 1 A/h lasts for 15 minutes. In this case, charging requires 45 minutes (three times longer).

The Best Cheap Electric Self-Propelled Lawn Mowers

In a riding lawn mower, whether electric or battery-powered, the motor not only turns the blades, but also drives the wheels. The tool moves on its own, so working with it is much more convenient and easier, especially when processing large areas. Accordingly, the cost of such a unit is higher, although there are quite budget models that we will consider in this category. They have a right to exist, but it should be understood that the manufacturer often skimps on materials, installs not the most reliable motors, and tries in every possible way to reduce the cost of the product. When buying such a lawn mower, you should not load it beyond the norm. If you have a relatively small area and you don’t want to bother mowing the lawn, then this will be the best option with electric traction.

It lasts many times longer than its rotary counterparts and can withstand the most severe loads. The model is also equipped with axial bearings, which is very important given the self-propelled system. In general, this is a rare case when a not-so-popular manufacturer makes the highest quality product.

Criteria for choosing electric lawn mowers

In addition to its power rating, an electric lawn mower is practical. Which one to choose for personal use is decided solely by the client. However, there are a number of factors that will help you choose the ideal option:

• The ability to adjust the height of the mow - this option will allow you to control the height of the lawn, especially in a relief area, which means the result of the work will be more aesthetically pleasing.
• The quality and material of the cutting element - the blades must be highly durable and of high quality, capable of cutting through a wide variety of plant types.
• Methods for servicing the unit - if the manufacturer's brand provides for service - this will be an incredibly important bonus, because if it is necessary to sharpen the blades, the owner will not encounter problems with the body being unbalanced, as with self-service.
• The size of the deck will allow you to capture the optimal width of the bevel, which will ensure the productive operation of the entire unit.
• The grass catcher format is a factor that affects performance. The fact is that the plastic version will help to collect the grass cut by the machine and get rid of it without difficulty, while the soft one will sometimes force the owner to use additional cleaning methods - washing or a vacuum cleaner.
• Wheel configuration is a factor that is responsible for the integrity of the lawn and ease of movement. It's better when the wheels are wide.
• The strength and presence of wheel bearings will make the car more maneuverable and durable.

It is very difficult to say for sure which electric lawn mower is the best, because they all have an impressive set of characteristic functions. However, one thing is clear: using the knowledge gained, each owner will be able to quickly and easily determine the option that will best cope with the task. Now you know what an electric mower is and how to choose one.

The South Korean company HYUNDAI always tries to outperform its competitors in terms of the content of its products. Something new is constantly being invented here, and even the electric lawn mower is no exception. An innovative idea was the air knife, which rotates not only with the help of electric traction, but also thanks to the turbulent thrust created inside the turbine. This made it possible to increase the productivity of the tool and at the same time improve the selection of mowed grass. As a result, the lawn mower leaves virtually no debris behind, which is its main advantage over its competitors.
