Are gas lawn mowers better than electric mowers?
The choice between gas and electric lawn mowers depends on your needs and preferences. Gas lawn mowers are more powerful and can handle larger lawns and tough mowing conditions. They can easily cut through thick grass and withstand wear and tear over time. If you’re concerned about noise and environmental impact or have a smaller lawn, a gas-powered lawn mower may not be the best choice.
What should I look for when buying a gas lawn mower?
There are several factors to consider when shopping for a gas lawn mower.
The cutting width of the mower determines how much grass the lawn mower can cut in a single pass. The larger the lawn, the greater the cutting width should be.
Engine power matters. Consider the size and terrain of your lawn to choose the right engine power for you.
How about going hands-free? Self-propelled mowers can make mowing easier, especially for larger lawns.
Are your neighbours sensitive to noise? Gas mowers can be relatively loud, so consider any noise restrictions in your area when choosing a mower.
How long do gas lawn mowers last?
A gas lawn mower can last up to 10 years. As with any machine, proper care plays a role in determining its longevity.
How do I maintain a gas mower?

· Clean the air filter once a season.
· Sharpen the mower blades every season to ensure a clean cut.
