Property Size

One of the most important things you’ll need to consider when selecting your mower is your property size! Generally, the larger your acreage is, the larger your mower will need to be. This is to ensure your machine doesn’t get overwhelmed by larger, heavier-duty tasks. Don’t forget, if you’re buying a larger mower you’ll also need a large storage space for it.

Other features, such as riding capabilities and heavy-duty abilities become even more important. You don’t want to end up pushing a small mower across acres and acres of land. You also don’t want a machine too weak to handle some of the harder mowing tasks on your property. 

Features

It’s important to consider the features you’ll need your mower to include. For example, if you have a very large property you’ll likely want your mower to come with riding capabilities. If you’re interested in having your machine perform other landscaping tasks you’ll want to look for a mower that can use implements. Considering what features you’d like to have beforehand should help you avoid overpaying for attributes you may not need. 

Long-Term

Lastly, when buying your mower, remember to think long-term. If you expect to increase or decrease your property size, you’ll want to look for a mower well-suited for either acreage. If you’re looking for a budget option you may want to purchase a used model that’s been well taken care of. This will also allow you to trade in for an upgrade or even resell your machine.
