Top 5 silent lawn mowers for peaceable neighborhoods: Ideal choices for 2024
In the pursuit of a peaceful and eco-friendly garden, the hum of a lawnmower can be a unwelcome intrusion. However, with the rise of quieter options, maintaining a well-manicured lawn no longer has to come at the cost of tranquility.
One such option is the Spear & Jackson 40cm Hand Push Cylinder Lawnmower. This traditional mower, with its five cylinder blades, offers a clean finish while keeping noise levels down. It boasts a 30-litre grass collection box, making it efficient as well as quiet.
Another contender in the quiet lawn mower market is the Stihl RMA 235 cordless model. Operating at 89dB, it is Quiet Mark certified, a testament to its low noise output. The Stihl RMA 339 C Pro Cordless Lawnmower, too, has earned the Quiet Mark, making Stihl a notable brand for those seeking a quieter mowing experience.
Cordless mowers, in general, are often quieter than their petrol counterparts, although the difference may not always be substantial. The Einhell GC-HM 300 Hand Push Lawn Mower is a prime example, featuring a 16-litre grass collection box that can be easily detached for emptying, and a cutting width of 30cm, making it suitable for smaller lawns. It also has four height levels, adjustable between 13mm and 37mm.
The appeal of quiet lawn mowers extends beyond the garden, with 70% of British people stating they are more likely to buy an appliance labeled as 'quiet'. This trend is reflected in the new regulations requiring the guaranteed decibel level for all outdoor power tools to be displayed.
Manual or push mowers, with their rhythmic whirr, are among the quietest options. The Bosch AHM 38 G Manual Garden Lawn Mower, for instance, boasts a cutting width of 38 centimetres and a 25-litre grass box. It also features five helical blades made from hardened steel, ensuring a precise cut.
In the world of power tools, the vast majority operate above the 80dB 'danger zone' for potential hearing damage. However, with the advent of Quiet Mark certified products, such as the Stihl BGA 57 leaf blower, which features a noise level of about 86.2 dB, it's clear that quieter, more environmentally-friendly options are becoming more accessible.
It's worth noting that the loudness of a product can sometimes only be fully understood once it's charged at home. But with the growing demand for quieter products and the increasing availability of third-party acoustic assessments, it's an exciting time for those seeking a peaceful gardening experience.
