There are a few mowers that make you manhandle them around the garden in pretty much the same manner as an out-of-control shopping trolley. This one is not among them. The Yard Force 40cm Self Propelled Petrol Lawnmower has its very own 127cc engine that does all the donkey work for you. You merely have to steer – and even this is a bit like having power steering on grass.
New Price Reduction – Save £76.66
Priced at £230 when it launched, this mower now only costs £153.34. That's a very precise £76.66 saving (enough to make that accountant within you smile). For a petrol self-propelled mower for less than £160, it's one you should grab before the grass gets wise to what's heading its way.
There's something nice about a substantial reduction in price, and this one is a real rip-roarer. Normally, self-powered petrol mowers cost quite a lot more than this, so getting one for slightly over £150 is like discovering a misplaced £20 note in your trousers. Except, of course, that the prize in this case is a gleaming, fuel-burning lawn-mangling device.
Key Features (with a Whiff of Petrol-Scented Humour)
127cc 4-Stroke Engine
Think of it as the heart of the beast. This motor gives you enough oomph to handle medium-sized lawns without quite feeling like you've signed up for a gym workout. Smooth, trustworthy, and efficient – it's an appropriate upgrade from battery or corded versions.
Self-Propelled – Less Push, More Stroll
The mower pushes itself forward while you enjoy a relaxed walk behind it. Your toughest decision will be determining whether to call it "gardening" or "light exercise."
40cm Cutting Width
With its 40cm steel blade, you can cut a substantial area of ground per pass. Ideal for garden-sized gardens – not too big, not too little. The Goldilocks of mower sizes.
Adjustable Cutting Heights
Choose from 5 different heights (2.5cm to 7.5cm). If your style is for a neat, low lawn bowling green or a bit more shaggy, central height control makes it easy to alter.
45L Grass Collection Bag
The 45-litre capacity means less regular disruption to empty. Unless, that is, you happen to like a visit to the compost heap as part of your workout routine.
Built to Last
Weighing in at 23.9kg, the mower is heavy enough to feel like a proper bit of kit without being unmanageable. And with a 3-year warranty (online registration), Yard Force clearly believes it's around for the long haul.
What Customers Typically Say
The Good Stuff - Easy to start, self-propelled feature saves effort, cuts nicely even on fairly rugged lawns, big collection bag, great value.
The Niggles - It's heavier than electric models, and like any petrol mower, it needs occasional fiddling (oil, fuel, etc.) But that's the price of power and self-drive convenience.
Final Word – Drive Your Lawn to Perfection
The Yard Force 40cm Self Propelled Petrol Lawnmower is a steal at just £153.34. Self-propelling, powerful, and reliable, it's perfect for medium-sized gardens and those who prefer walking behind a mower rather than pushing one up a hill like a wayward wheelbarrow.
So are you going to do with this £76.66 saving ride across your lawn like a boss, or sweat forever more behind that dodgy push mower? And then you've had a go, let us know, did the mower make you feel like a garden boss, or are you secretly enjoying how smugly self-propelled is for you?
