We need to buy a new lawn mower. Our present one is 11 years old and has served us well. It is petrol operated but you need to pull out a handle at speed to start it and that is getting beyond us! We want an electric starter. Has anyone bought one recently they would recommend? We have two medium sized lawns. TIA

I’d suggest one which has a re-chargeable battery, there’s so much choice, but we have some Riobi gardening bits, strummer and very small safe branch and hedge trimmer, they are very good and use the same batteries.

I have a robot. It's great!
