You can shred mowed grass and blow these grass shreds back onto your lawn with the mulching function. This is called a mulch layer. It protects your grass from heat and reduces growth of weeds. Read more about the advantages of mulching and view all lawn mowers with a mulching function here.

Electric lawn mowers, cordless lawn mowers, and gasoline lawn mowers look very similar but are actually very different. With an electric lawn mower, you can work continuously but you're bound to an extension cord. You can mow cordlessly and spend less time on maintenance with a cordless lawn mower. A gasoline lawn mower is often more powerful than other models, but needs a lot of maintenance. Read about the differences here.

The most common mowing technology is the rotary mower. These lawn mowers are mostly useful for higher grass and uneven surfaces. You always operate reel lawn mowers manually. You roll the reel over the grass so the blades can neatly cut the grass. A hover mower looks like a rotary mower, but doesn't have wheels. Instead, it hovers just a bit above the round. These lawn mowers are very maneuverable. Read more about the different mowing technologies here before you buy a lawn mower.

Cordless lawn mowers are often part of a battery platform. That means you can use the battery of your lawn mower for other cordless (garden) tools in the same battery platform as well. You won't have to buy a separate battery for each machine that way, which saves space. Read more about the various battery platforms and their advantages.

Not all cordless lawn mowers from the same brand have the same battery platform. That's because some brands have multiple battery platforms based on the voltage. For example, there are 18V and 36V battery platforms. Want to combine the battery of your cordless lawn mower with another (garden) tool? Make sure the voltage is the same.
