Pros and Cons
Should You Buy This Model?
I would have to say that I do recommend this lawn mower to anyone with a larger-sized garden. However, there might be people who benefit from it more than others. For example, if you want something that simply gets things done and doesn’t have a wealth of options, then this might be a little too complex for you. But if you want something that will easily replicate the power and versatility of a petrol mower, then you’ll likely get on with this very well, thanks to the various mowing options.
What’s even better is that you are getting all of this without the need for a power cord. If you’ve been looking to replace your electric lawn mower with something of a similar standard, you won’t go far wrong with this mower.
Conclusion
The Mountfield Princess 42 Li is a very versatile machine that allows you to mow the lawn in a way that suits you. The cutting options are varied, and you are getting six cutting heights, as well as a rear roller. All of this coupled with the benefits of cordless, the very good build quality and the powerful STIGA lithium-ion batteries, means that you have a lawn mower that will give you a great experience, making the garden feel less like hard work.
