A petrol mower was out of the question for me. As my old cheap lawnmowers be final out was (wheels fell when mowing always grinding, catcher Riess constantly from, 7-10x empty when mowing, etc.) I've transitional petrol mower borrowed from neighbors: gasoline self-propelled and large cutting width. In itself, that's a great part, but eventually the site boundary has been reached and you have to turn around this bold, hard part. If we make it on the spot, dig it aufgrundd weight a the wheels in the grass. Fast as now with my Alko I was there either. In addition, you have as opposed to the maintenance-free Elekromäher (cleaning should be clear in any case) some bars: Drain oil after the season, fill oil before the season, clean spark plugs, can possibly perform service maintenance. For me would a gasoline mower Self-Propelled in question, but only from 700m³ mowing area. The surface to be mowed I about 450m³ big with me because of Alko is ideal. Thank the big catch basket I need empty only when I mowed (mow at 1x / week, then bag is also filled to the brim). The mower does not self-propelled did not interfere in the least because it can be really easy to push.
The mulch also works very well, but the cut could be a little smaller. However, this may also be because the blades when delivered are so blunt that you might as injury free draufstellen barefoot himself. Unsharpened pulls the mower even during normal cutting the stalks rather than from it that she cuts, which is not necessarily good for the straws. Over high heat the grass dries out faster. That's the only drawback in my opinion. However, I do not know how other brands managing. It is quite possible that the blades are blunt here. The sharpening service at the hardware store but does not cost the world: ~ 20th
I have now run him a Saion long and can only sustainably say: The ideal electric mower for medium-sized areas! Even if that's the mower blades not the non plus ultra, there is in my opinion no better electric mower in this price range in the market. Therefore, I forgive 5 Stars!
