Why would you want a hand-pushed mower in the 21st century? We have plenty of alternative power sources, from mains electricity to rechargeable batteries to old-fashioned petrol, so why labour around your lawn every weekend?
The answer is twofold: simplicity and cost. The best hand-push mowers are quiet in use, require little to no maintenance, are an environmentally friendly option, and can be significantly cheaper than their powered peers. There’s another benefit too, in the exercise you’ll get from providing pedestrian power - though they may be better suited to smaller, flatter lawns.
