For many homeowners, a beautifully striped lawn is the ultimate way to make a garden look neater, healthier and professionally maintained. However, whilst many of the best cordless mowers and the best robot mowers can create subtle striping effects, there’s actually one specific type of mower that delivers the very best results.
The secret to striped lawns lies in the rear roller. As the mower moves across the lawn, the rear roller gently bends the grass blades in different directions. Grass bent towards you reflects more light and appears lighter, whilst grass bent away looks darker, resulting in the classic alternating stripe effect.
