As the weather warms up and seasonal showers fuel faster growth, your lawn can quickly become a full-time job from April onwards. That’s usually when the old mower gets dragged out of the shed and you realise it might be time for an upgrade. If your current machine isn’t cutting it, I’ve rounded up the best lawn mowers to help you find a better option.

A well-kept lawn can completely change the look of your garden, especially when it’s finished with those crisp, satisfying mowing lines. Even smaller patches of grass can benefit from a good mower, helping the whole space look tidier and more polished.
