    Large garden tools usually perform better and are therefore more popular. But this property is not always the case. In our comparison, we show that a small lawn tractor sometimes proves to be more advantageous.

    Large lawn tractors

    Large lawn tractors make it easier to drive on muddy ground, since the well-developed transmission prevents the wheels from spinning. In addition, many models are equipped with a driver's cab that enables work even in bad weather. However, the high dead weight presses on the lawn, so that it compacts or the lawn tractor leaves visible tracks.

    benefits
    • With driver's cabin
    • No wheel spin
    disadvantage
    • High own weight

    If you are still unsure about the purchase decision, you should seek advice from the hardware store. Otherwise, we recommend looking around the internet for a cheap model. Here you not only have more choice, but you can also compare the prices directly with each other. The following brands convince with good quality:

    • wolf garden
    • Al-Ko
    • glasses
    • MTD
    • McCulloch

    care instructions

    Even a small lawn tractor requires maintenance work and care measures. This includes regular cleaning, preferably after each use. Do not expose your device to the weather. A small carport protects the vehicle from moisture and precipitation.

    equipment

    If you don't have a garage, a protective hood is an alternative. You can also add useful equipment to your lawn tractor. A snow plow, for example, is recommended for winter service. However, more engine power is then required.
