Petrol, Cordless, or Corded – Which Really Costs Less?
Petrol mowers bring power and independence but demand regular servicing and pricey fuel. Cordless electrics are smooth and quiet, but battery charging can nibble away at your energy bill. Corded models? They sip electricity but limit your reach to the nearest plug socket.
