hi everybody, im looking for a new mower. i have, at present, a
qualcast
38cm which cuts almost perfectly until you set it at a very low hieght
when you then get "ripple" effect on the lawn.
im after a petrol free/electric free mower minimum of 8 blades in the
cylinder and preferably a 20" cutting width and something that will go
down to about quarter inch cut.
Is there any out there with this spec or will i have to get a blade
manufactured for my qualcast? -
I can recommend the Brill Razor Cut 38, only 5 blades and only goes
down
to 14mm (about half inch) though.
Do you cut your lawn to a quarter inch?
Steven
hello steve, i dont cut my lawn to 1/4 inch but i would like to cut my
lawn to a quarter of an inch if possible. i totally re-seeded the lawn 2
years ago with golf/bowling green seed and mixed in a good ratio of sand
to the soil (about 70/30). at present its totally a lush green colour
and weed free very healthy.
from your experience would the brill razorcut leave a ripple effect with
5 blades? or is the mower have a better gear system which gives it more
rotations as you push it? thanks for your previous reply,
neil
My Brill has never left a ripple effect on a lawn, but I don't get to use
it that often. I mostly use a Hayter rotary for the speed and grass
collection.
The Brill grass box is almost useless. It's faster to leave it off and
rake up the clippings after mowing.
