Self Propelled Mower vs Push

The main option for an average family home is the standard walk-behind mower. It is much more compact than its riding counterparts, and it can do an equally good job on lawns smaller than 1/2 acre in size. There are two types of walk-behind mowers to pick from – push and self-propelled. So, let's get started.

Number 1
The Difference
The push lawn mower requires you to use effort to push it so that it gets propelled forward. These machines come with a motor or an engine, but it only powers the blade. Naturally, when you push the mower, you use more effort, especially when you make turns.

The self-propelled lawn mower moves forward on its own. It is equipped with a transmission that sends power to either the machine’s front or rear wheels. They roll to propel it forward while you do not have to use any effort to move it. Still, you will have to hold the handle firmly so that you control and machine. You will have to exercise some effort at turns and when climbing hills.

Number 2
General Comparison
The main advantage of the self-propelled lawnmower over the push one is that it is easier to operate. You do not have to use any effort to drive it forward. You need to steer it so that it moves in the right direction.

A powerful and heavy lawnmower is more versatile when it is self-propelled. You will be able to trim the grass more quickly and efficiently without much effort. This is a great option for those who have large and/or hilly lawns.

Number 3
Lawn Size
If you want to mow a larger lawn more quickly, you will need a more powerful mower and a greater cutting swath. Naturally, this machine will be heavier. In this case, you will operate it more efficiently and comfortably if it is self-propelled (for instance, like for half acre lot). For a smaller lawn, you can consider a push-type as well.

Number 4
Terrain
If the terrain is flat, then you can use either a push or a self-propelled mower. However, if you have to climb hills, you should certainly consider the latter option. It will save you time and a considerable amount of effort.

Number 5
User
Evaluate the physical fitness of the person who will mow the lawn on your property. If you are a fairly strong, fit, and healthy guy, you can readily go for a push model without hesitation. If you are a woman, you may be better off with a self-propelled mower. The same is true for elderly individuals, people who have medical conditions affecting their physical strength and mobility, and those who are not physically fit for one reason or the other.

The propulsion would lower the time spent mowing your lawn and require less overall effort from you. If you have a steep, hilly lawn with uneven terrain, then a rear-wheel mower is your better buy.
