Lawnflite S42PO Petrol Lawn Mower Review

Pros

•  Powerful yet quiet 123cc engine, including fuel pump with lines to keep all areas of the engine lubricated, which crutially extends the life of the engine and mower
• 60 litre grass bag. They don’t come much bigger on mowers of this size, so if this isn’t big enough, then unfortunately nothing probably will be. Of course if you want to you can opt for rear discharging the grass instead, in which case you can do without the bag altogether
  
• Optional mulch kit available
• Fully folding handle for ease of storage

 Cons

•  Steel cutting deck will be prone to corrosion in time, if damaged areas are not repaired and kept clean and dry
• At 28kg this isn’t the lightest mower available, and given that it isn’t self propelled this could put it off limits to some

 Conclusion

This is a fine mid size petrol lawnmower, it looks sturdy, and performs to suit. Having said that we do question the durability of the plastic nose piece, but we can only hope that the manufacturers gave good reason and consideration to this. The real star of the show is the engine with its economical (low fuel consumption and reduced emissions) and self lubricating features, it should make this mower a trusty ally for many years.
