Lawn Mowers
Lawn mowers come in such a variety of sizes, types, and price ranges that you should do some careful research before purchasing one. When deciding which is the best type of mower for you consider the size of your lawn, whether your lawn is flat or on a slope (a self-propelled mower will take some of the work out of this), any trees, tree roots, planter boxes that will require maneuverability and of course your budget.
Weeding Brush
