What are the main features of the Wolf Garten WPCM-F hand push mower?

This simple, compact mower has a cylinder with 5 carbon steel blades and a rear roller for stripes.

It has a rear roller for a striped finish and comes with a 15 litre plastic grass box that attaches to the front.

What is the Wolf Garten WPCM-F hand push mower like to use?

The handle of the mower needs assembling before use but it’s a simple case of screwing the two parts together and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. The handle has soft grip padding so it’s comfortable when pushing and the mower’s small and light. It’s easy to carry and manoeuvre around the lawn and it delivers a good cut. The height of cut goes down to just 10cm so it can give a low, neat finish but it doesn't cope well with longer lawns so you need to mow the lawn regularly. The grass box at the front catches the cuttings well but it does block your view when mowing up to edges or plants. It’s also not very big so a few trips to the compost heap are needed, which slows the job down. The cutting width is just 30cm so this mower is really best for small lawns or it could take you a while

Is the Wolf Garten WPCM-F hand push mower easy to store?

Unscrew the handle partly and this folds in half plus, the mower is very compact and just 30cm wide so it’s ideal for fitting into a corner and out of the way.

Is the Wolf Garten WPCM-F hand push mower good value for money?

This easy to use mower performs well and comes with a three-year warranty. We think it’s excellent value for money.
