Lawn tractors are now more popular than ever and this is because they are now more affordable and the latest models are suitable for almost all gardens. After using a garden tractor, you may not want to go back to your lawnmower. Easier to operate and more efficient in every way – they really put the fun back into gardening!

They are easy to maneuver around obstacles such as trees and flower beds. They can be side-discharged, collected in the rear bin or even left on the lawn with the mulching system. Their nimble handling and high top speed make it easy to finish your work.

However, as with all garden machinery, it has to do its job and be the best choice for you. So what should you consider before buying a garden tractor?

First of all, you should choose a garden tractor that fits the size of your garden. If you have a large open garden then go for something with a large cutting width, but if you have a garden with tight spaces or obstacles to cut around, consider something with a smaller cutting width. Remember if you have small spaces to go through, it's best to measure them before choosing the garden tractor to be sure. All measurements are listed on each product on our website and if you are unsure, of course you can call us for advice.

Then you can choose whether your tractor will have a hydrostatic or manual transmission, in short manual will be like driving a car with a manual transmission, you use a clutch system to change gears and hydrostatic (more like an automatic car) is better to rotate obstacles.

Is it easy to operate?

Consider your capabilities when choosing a garden tractor. Is it easy to get on and off? Is it easy to operate? Are there too many buttons and levers? Choose your garden tractor according to your needs and capabilities.

You still have to decide whether or not to pick up the lawn clippings. A rear collector garden tractor collects the lawn in a collection bag as it mows, which you then empty either with a lever-button or by removing the bucket and emptying it. In some cases you will want to leave the lawn clippings on the ground as this provides vital nutrients to your grass.

Garden tractors with a mulching system leave very fine grass clippings to disappear back into the garden and feed the soil and grass. They do such a great job that you'll hardly notice them on your lawn. Side-exit tractors carefully cut and spread the grass so it can be left to wither naturally. Grass rotting is a very efficient time saver, in fact it can be more than 30% faster than conventional methods as you don't have to stop working to empty the bin. This also results in significant fuel savings. You will notice a noticeable improvement in your lawn from this fertilizer. Our range includes tractors from leading manufacturers such as Alpina, Eurosystems, Stiga etc
