For a healthy-looking lawn, a mulcher mower that returns the cut clippings back to the lawn could be the right choice for you. But a catcher mower can also be a good option, because you can use the clippings as compost.

We put petrol-powered catcher and mulcher lawnmowers to the test on short, medium and long grass to show you which models:

  • perform best in mulching and catcher modes
  • are easiest to use
  • have the features and specifications to suit your needs.
