Testing and Reviews
The team at BBC Gardeners' World Magazine has reviewed countless lawn mowers over the years, using their trusted testing matrix to ensure balanced and fair judgements. Each mower is given an at-a-glance list of pros and cons for clarity, and a rating out of five. The team does not share product reviews with manufacturers or retailers before they're published, and they do not accept payment in exchange for positive reviews.
The lawn mowers are tested in varied, real-world conditions, cutting the sort of grass most of us actually have in our gardens. The testing process includes assessing how easy the mower was to put together and fold up or store afterwards, judging the mower for comfort, looking at the cutting width and the range of cutting heights that can be selected, and scoring each model against these four criteria.
For those on a tighter budget, the team has a video on choosing a budget mower. They've also co-authored other books with some of the biggest names in gardening and have written several books on a range of gardening topics from growing house plants to making the most of a small space. The team looks after an ornamental, fruit, and veg garden at home and regularly undertakes trips to see plants growing in their natural habitats.
These corded electric lawn mowers are available from various retailers, including Tooled Up, B&Q, Amazon UK, and Tool Station. If you're in the market for a new corded electric lawn mower, consider the models listed above for reliable performance and ease of use.
