John Deere Ride on Mower

Presenter: Neville Passmore

A big lawn has the potential to make you a slave to the lawn mower so the alternatives are to get a contractor to take care of it or find a system of mowing that takes the hard work out.

John Deere Ride On MowerA John Deere ride on mower has the potential to turn hard work into a heap of fun making you the boss of the green scene. Now you are probably thinking that this would cost a bomb, but this is not so. The beauty that Neville tonks around on will set you back just under $3,000 which when you think about it is the equivalent of two cylinder mowers. But the view from the seat is a whole lot better.

The nature of couch grass is that it grows fast in the warm months and in shady areas the weeds come up like hairs on a dogs back because the lawn grass is weakened by the shade. Regular trimming will keep the weeds under control and when it is so easy to mow with this set up you can confidently expect to have the best lawn in the street.

You should look for a deep deck design to ensure outstanding grass lift and a smooth underside prevents grass from building up. Two widths of cutting action are available 42 or 48 inches, which means half the number of passes compared to traditional cylinder types. You can even direct the clippings to a bagging unit which makes disposal easy and convenient.

The 100 Series offer a full length robotically welded heavy-gauge steel frame and cast iron front axle for added strength on rough terrain.

This is not just a mower, with attachments such as trailers, sprayers, spreaders and aerators there are many jobs that can be simplified and made easier on the back, and are a lot of fun.

So for the serious garden on a larger block this ride on can be the best fun you could have in your Wellington boots. A trusted name like John Deere takes away the headaches.
