Reel blades cut grass like scissors, so they cut the grass more evenly than a rotary mower, and most reel mowers cut blades lower than a rotary push mower.&nbsp;<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Self-propelled lawn mower:<\/strong> If you want the job done quickly and easily, a <a href=\"https:\/\/lawnlove.com\/blog\/best-self-propelled-lawn-mowers\/\">self-propelled lawn mower<\/a> may be your best choice. They are rotary mowers with a drive system that propels them forward, so mowing takes less effort. Some models have front-wheel drive, and others have four-wheel drive.<\/li> <\/ul>    <h3 id=\"source\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"power-source\">Power source<\/span><\/h3>    <h4 id=\"when-selecting-a-lawn-mower-you-have-three-primary-power-source-choices\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">When selecting a lawn mower, you have three primary power source choices:<\/h4>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Manual:<\/strong> Powered by their operator, manual lawn mowers take the most effort. However, they are also the most eco-friendly, and they give the user a lot of control.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Electric:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/lawnlove.com\/blog\/best-electric-lawn-mowers\/\">Electric lawn mowers<\/a> come in corded and cordless models. They require less effort than manual mowers but aren&#8217;t as eco-friendly. Mowing with an electric model typically releases zero emissions, but electricity has a carbon footprint, and gas-guzzling heavy equipment is used to mine lithium for batteries.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Gas: <\/strong>Although the most powerful, gas lawn mowers are also the loudest and the least eco-friendly. Most homeowners with large yards prefer gas mowers because they have longer runtimes and do the job quicker, but many with small yards prefer electric or manual mowers.\u00a0<\/li> <\/ul>    <h3 id=\"width\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"cutting-width\">Cutting width<\/span><\/h3>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider a lawn mower with a cutting width of 21 inches or less if you have a small yard. The wider a mower&#8217;s cutting width, the quicker you can do the job. However, wider mowers are also heavier, more challenging to maneuver, and more costly. Ensure your mower is narrow enough to navigate around flower beds and other obstacles.&nbsp;<\/p>    <h3 id=\"height\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"cutting-height\">Cutting height<\/span><\/h3>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You must select a lawn mower capable of cutting your grass to its ideal height.

The nutrient-rich clippings decompose into the soil, fertilizing the lawn. Clippings are also great for garden beds and compost piles.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Bagging attachments<\/strong> are excellent for homeowners who don&#8217;t want to leave clippings on the lawn. If your grass is long, it may produce too many clippings and smother the grass. Also, homeowners may bag clippings to prevent spreading weeds or fungus.<\/li> <\/ul>    <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li><strong>Long runtime:<\/strong> Gas mowers with larger fuel tanks run longer without refueling, but runtime is more critical for battery mowers. Batteries with more amp hours (Ah) have a longer runtime, but some battery platforms use their resources more efficiently. Expect <a href=\"https:\/\/lawnlove.com\/blog\/lithium-ion-battery-cost\/\">lithium-ion batteries to cost<\/a> more when they have longer runtimes.
