Depending on the size of your block, you may require a small ride on mower or something a little more powerful. There's a wide range of brands, makes and model varieties out there, such as 2WD, 4WD and AWD. So choosing the right one really comes down to your requirements. Need to mow over a slope or rough terrain? A 4WD or AWD ride on mower may be best. For those large, flat areas, a 2WD will do the trick just fine.
Ride on mowers aren't just convenient. They also provide precision cuts, thanks to the purpose-built deck, which can often be lifted or lowered to suit your desired cut height. More recent models also come with power steering to make the job even easier. Or if you need that extra power, a diesel-powered ride on mower may be what you're after.
They're very easy to operate: simply sit, turn on, and steer. Depending on the make and model, ride on mowers will generally have 2 to 3 speed options, usually including low, medium and high. You can also choose a range of attachments for fast cleanup and effortless mowing. These attachments include material collection systems, mulch control, brush guards, bumpers, lights and pull-along carts.
If you're looking for precision mowing that creates a beautiful result, you'll want to be sure you choose the right deck system. Different brands offer different mower decks with their ride ons, so you'll want to do some research to find which deck offers the best result for your needs. Some allow for better grass dispersion, others have more even clipping dispersal, some are deeper to lift grass for a more even cut, and some are built for providing a smooth cut even in difficult conditions.
