The Handy Hand Push Mower Review
Summary
Are electric and petrol lawnmowers a necessary purchase when push mowers offer an exceptional choice of lawnmower for those gardeners who enjoy keeping their small lawns mainicured?
I recently tested the Handy Hand Push Mower and was pleasantly surprised by how much it had to offer with its wide range of features and the amount of tasks it completes in my garden.
The entire model is environmentally friendly as it doesn’t require any power supply or fuels and is operated purely by kinetic energy. As the mower is powered manually, it won’t upset the neighbours due to its quiet operation.
Designed with value for money, this compact and lightweight machine, can still tackle whatever garden lawn task is required. The lightweight feature means that there is no difficulty in moving around your garden, making it suitable for all types to gardeners to operate it with ease.
Main Features
- 18L rear grass collection box.
- Very lightweight and easy to operate.
- No electric cables or fuel to worry about.
- Assembly is straightforward and no tools are required.
Blades
This mower comes with five steel blades. I would recommend that these blades are cleaned after each use to prevent rust from appearing. This will help to pro-long the blades life.
Height Adjustment
This Handy Hand Push Mower has 5 adjustable cutting heights ranging from 16mm to 41mm so that you can trim your grass to any length required. Once set up correctly, this mower performs extremely well with a fine cut due to its scissor like cutting action and great striping of the lawn. I found that it does not cope as well with grass longer than around 10cm as the longer length meant that push required was just a bit too much for me. I found by removing the roller completely and manually balancing the mower to cut at about 4cm gave a better outcome and avoided getting the shears out on longer grass.
Cutting Diameter
The 30cm cutting width blade is quite standard for most push mowers and is ideal for small and most medium lawns. Whilst the blade is quite narrow, its powerful cutting system allows for a more precise mowing experience. It is also perfect to manoeuvre around ornaments and plants whilst still maintaining a professional finish.
Handy Hand Push Mower comes with a rear roller for better stability and creating nice stripes on your lawn.
Grass box capacity
It has a rear 18L collection box to collect the grass clippings as it cuts. I noticed that the grass collection box can fall off when in use which although isn’t a big problem, but can be frustrating.
Practicalities – This compact mower doesn’t take up much storage room, only weights 7.5kg and requires no power.

Should You Buy This Model?
Overall, an innovative mower perfect for gardeners looking for great value and who have small to medium gardens and still require a lot of functionality. The Handy Hand Push Mower is well built and designed to produce nicely groomed lawn with stripes. It is environmentally friendly and operates quietly so that it isn’t heavily dependent on parts and servicing. My only gripe was that the bolts on the handle can become loose and even fall off, so it’s worth checking that they are on tightly before use.
I feel that this model outweighs the Bosch AHM 38 G Manual Garden Lawn Mower whose cut is just not as precise and can take several attempts to mow over each area without producing stripes.
Where Should I Purchase this Handy Hand Push Mower?
- 30cm cut
- rear grass collector
- 5 bladed cutting cylinder
