How we test
Overall score comprises performance (50%) and ease of use (50%).
Performance scores are based on cutting:
Short (30mm) grass to 15mm
Medium-length (approx. 75-100mm) grass to 30mm
Long (approx. 300-400mm) grass on the highest cut setting
We run the short and medium-length grass tests with the mower in both catcher and mulching modes where applicable. Neither the catcher nor the mulcher is used for the long grass test.

Vibration (20%)
Pushing/manoeuvring (20%)
