If most keen male gardeners were to be honest, they would probably admit to dreaming of riding on their own lawn mower cutting a vast expanse of grass. I have, that’s for sure, but have never had a garden big enough to remotely justify a ride on mower. However, that did not stop me approaching research for this article with a degree of anticipation and enthusiasm.
Owning a ride on lawn mower does have practical advantages, for those who have a vast expanse of grass to cut. For one thing, they are said to save energy, although the yardstick for that comparison is not likely to have been a good old fashioned push mower. They could save your energy, though; they are likely to save a lot of time. Plus, they are seen as a bit of fun, good for the male ego, and give a sense of: “I’ve made it, I have a riding mower.”
Perhaps that sense of excitement on owning a ride on lawn more contributes to one drawback. In the wrong hands, they can be dangerous, as this BBC article reveals. The fun element does seem to be misplaced, as the number of sometimes serious accidents reveals. So, if you do decide to buy a riding mower, please take special care. These mowers are heavy equipment with sharp fast moving blades.
Once you are sure that a ride on lawn mower would be in safe hands with you, there are a number of options from which to choose, which may depend which country you are in. Garden lawn tractors are close to farm machinery, so it is not so surprising that one of the big names in agricultural machinery, John Deere, are prominent in the ride on mower market. The John Deere 100 Series, plus the X300, X500 and X700 series are worth comparing before making any decision. There are other makes too, such as the Swisher riding mower, including their zero-turn ride on mowers like the Swisher Ride King 52-Inch 20 HP Zero Turning Radius Riding Lawn Mower.
Please choose carefully and wisely, and take care when you get on board!
