Self-propelled lawn mowers on a gasoline engine - excellent support in the care of the lawn. Electrical options lose this and in power and comfort of operation. Petrol units do not depend on the mains voltage and do not need a cable layout and battery charging.
One of the main advantages of self-propelled mowers is to facilitate the user's work. Since part of the motor energy is transmitted to the wheels, the mower only needs to direct the scythe and watch the stones not to fall under the blades.
There are two types of self-propelled units operating on gasoline - front-and rear-wheel drive. The first are good for mowing flat areas, the second is suitable for lawns with not very flat landscape and for sloping lawns.
Rating the best models of gasoline self-propelled lawn mowers will help to orient in the products and will be a beacon, guiding the purchase of a suitable product. Top 10 is based on preferences and customer reviews, so it reflects well both the popularity of models and their quality.
In addition to the rating, you will be helped by a number of landmarks that you should pay attention to when choosing a lawn mower:
- body material - aluminum alloys are preferable: they are light and strong enough,
- power - the more geometrically the area is, the more powerful the device should be, it’s logical, because the wheels should receive enough effort from the engine so that the user doesn’t feel any discomfort, rear-wheel drive is usually more powerful, although they are characterized by lower fuel economy,
- the width of the strip - the larger the lawn, the more expedient is the purchase of mowers with large grippers, usually for small areas take units with a cutting width of up to 43 cm, for larger plots with a width of more than 43 cm, mowers with a cutting width of more than 51 cm are considered professional,
- wheels - if the unit is more designed for mowing high grass, then wide wheels are preferable, if the lawn is processed on a regular basis, the width of the wheels does not play a noticeable role,
- mulching is an option that allows grass not only to be cut, but also chopped, thus obtaining lawn fertilizer,
- grass collection - if the plot is designed for regular mowing and exclusively decorative appearance, it is necessary to purchase a device with a grass collector.
Husqvarna R 152SV
RWD mower perfectly suited for consumers who are not lucky with the geometry of the lawn. The speed of movement is regulated (extremely fast movement - at a speed of 5 km / h), and this ensures smooth access to delicate shrubs and flowerbeds without the risk of damaging the latter.
A sufficiently strong motor (3.8 horses) and a strong sharp knife make it possible not only to mow everything that “grows badly”, but also to grind the branches that come across in the way. There are three options for dumping grass - sideways, back and in a 70-liter bag. Bonus - mulch option. The height range of mowed greens is 33-108 mm (seven levels in total). Cutting width - 53 cm.

The cutting element is very durable (made of silumin), resistant to corrosion and shock load - this is important when processing difficult areas. The central height adjustment allows you to choose from 6 levels. There are two options for working with waste - the release of cut grass back and mulching. Width of capture of greens - 48 cm.

HYUNDAI L 4300S

The mower, with all the power, is quite moderate in fuel appetites. It features a smooth start. Among the minuses - the lack of speed adjustment. Processing a flat area, you have to move in order to catch up with a powerful lawn mower.
CRAFTSMAN 37093
This is the best lawnmower rating, if for the main criterion to take the power of technology. In the engine, 7 horses are hidden, which, given the rear-wheel drive nature of the device, makes the spit an excellent choice if it is necessary to treat uneven sloping lawns.

Mowing width - 51 cm. There is a 7-level mowing height adjustment - 3-8 cm. A characteristic feature of the machine is that the height and dimensions of the steel body are increased, which provides an increased air supply. In addition, the housing is designed to allow mowing grass close to flowerbeds or fences.
Among the shortcomings - it would be better to think over the design based on a higher grass. In such a situation, the equipment behaves insufficiently productively relative to its power.

The football field is suitable for mowing, not a garden plot! Unlike the electric mower, 2 times there was a bend of the knife during a raid on an obstacle. The original new knife costs about 1200 rubles. 🙁 If the knife is not bent, the flywheel key is cut and the engine stops starting. Replacing the keys in the service (turn in the season for a month!) Is about 1,500 rubles., And work for half an hour. Independently put a key from more solid steel, as a result the flywheel burst. The flywheel stands as a half-mower 12 tr. (Alexey)

I took it specially with the option of mulching, a great option for garden beds, but as for me, if there are no beds, it’s just a lawn on the plot, then you can take it without mulch, although the grass is packed more tightly in the bag due to the fact that it is smaller. In the season I bought at a cost of about 16 thousand rubles, now I already saw it on stocks. (Sergei)

Be sure to take into account the level of noise pollution, it is especially important to take into account this factor if the work will be carried out near the residential buildings of neighbors. Additional features and price also play a significant role. The size of the blade is selected depending on how dense and often the lawn grass grows to each other.
The cutting system is also very important - there are models with one type or combined. Side discharge will be most suitable for a lawn on which grow thick and coarse grass. Grinding and mulching are intended for frequent cutting, especially as finely chopped grass will become an excellent fertilizer, and also keep the lawn in its original form when dry days will stand.

These models are quite heavy, but very powerful. Such devices are best suited for large areas and overgrown lawns. Rotating blades, if necessary, can be removed and sharpened or completely replaced.
