Although you may have already made the decision that a cylinder lawn mower is the best tool to cut your grass it is worth just going over the differences between a cylinder and rotary mower.

Many people think that having a rotary mower means buying a hover mower. This is due to the heavy marketing at one time of the hover but rotary bladed mowers can be powered by electric or petrol and be wheeled. The other misconception is that a rotary bladed mower will not produce a lined finish to a lawn but this is not true. Many rotary lawnmowers have a rear roller that gives a striped finish but the blade cannot reproduce he clean cut of the scissor action cylinder mowers. On the other hand a rotary mower will cut longer grass, handle uneven surfaces, cut damp grass (not recommended if you want healthy grass) much better than a cylinder mower.

There is little doubt that a cylinder mower produces the highest quality cut and is the mower for fine lawns and sports turf. The blades on a a cylinder cut with a scissor action and amazingly this method of cut has been used since the first mechanical lawnmowers and has not been bettered.

The upside is that they are easy to start but the downside can be the length of electric cable needed to cut large grassed areas.

But we must not forget the push cylinder lawn mowers that have served gardeners well for many years. It is certainly true that today there are many home owners who have never used a push cylinder lawn mower to cut their lawns due partly to the cheap (relatively speaking) electric lawn mowers that appeared on the market, whether that a hover or cylinder model. For smaller lawns a push cylinder mower can be ideal as long as the height of cut is set right and that the blades are regularly adjusted so that a good scissor action is achieved with the base plate.
