Modern electric mowers - corded and cordless - offer lower maintenance, quieter operation, and reduced local emissions, making them a practical choice for small to medium lawns. Consider runtime, charging, and electricity source when choosing a model.
Match mower type to your yard: assess size, obstacles and slope, then choose between reel, electric (corded or battery), self-propelled, or gas models based on maintenance, noise, and power needs.
A push (reel) grass sweeper is a manual upright mower that cuts grass with a rotating blade cylinder and often collects clippings. It's quiet, economical, and eco-friendly, ideal for small to medium lawns when maintained properly.
Ratings come from different sources and measure different things. Use lab tests for performance, owner reviews for reliability, and compare within mower categories to make a sound purchase.
