I was not sure where to put this, between here or the home improvement thread, or the gardening threads. Anyway, I am thinking about getting a small battery operated lawnmower. Bobby has the riding mower and a walking mower, and he does the main parts of the lawns; and I have my little battery operated weedeater that i use to mow around the plants and the areas where Bobby can’t take the mower.
I am looking at one of the small (13”) battery operated lawnmowers to use in some of those areas instead of the weedeater. With the weedeater, even though it is a light weight one, I still have to carry it and lean over to use it ; but with the small lawnmower, I would only have to push it. and the handle would help give me better balance.
The lawnmower also has a small bag for grass clippings, so I can collect the clippings do use those for mulch around the flowers and plants. I think that when I am pruning back the blackberries and other vines, I can run the mower over them and turn those into mulch, too; so it would be handy for me for a lot of things.
This is the one I am looking at. It only weighs around 20 lbs, and should be easy for me to use.
