Mulching lawnmowers differ from traditional mowers in one fundamental way: they do not collect grass cuttings.
Their purpose is not to provide traditional ‘mulch’, but to cut the grass into fine clippings which are then recycled by being absorbed back into the lawn. This helps to feed its roots with nutrients and additional moisture for healthier and greener grass. Such a practice further eliminates the need to apply chemical fertilizers, that can cause environmental harm.
Mulching Lawn mowers do not have boxes, and double cut the grass so the cuttings disappear quickly into the lawn, also reducing the need to repeatedly empty your box in-between cuts.
There are a variety of fuel and electric mulching models available, from various companies such as Honda & STIHL. Often, these are categorized as ‘3-in-1’ or ‘4-in-1’ as they offer the option of collecting, mulching, rear discharging or side discharging lawn clippings.
