Mountfield HP185 Petrol Lawnmower

It might come in at an impressively low-price point, but this classic petrol rotary mower from British garden machinery experts, Mountfield, nevertheless offers rugged build-quality, numerous convenience features and excellent versatility.

Delivering hefty power is compact 139cc Stiga ST 140 OHV engine. Thanks to its overhead-valve (OHV) design, this European-manufactured four-stroke motor is characterised by its low-vibration, low-emission performance and superior fuel economy.

The flexible Mountfield HP185 Petrol Lawnmower doesn’t just 'cut & collect', it’s also mulch-capable. When operating in mulching-mode, you’ll not only save time, as there’s no collector to keep emptying, you’ll also naturally nourish the turf and be left with a neat, clippings-free lawn.

A hand-propelled machine, the Mountfield HP185 excels in terms of manoeuvrability, and will therefore prove a great purchase if you’ve got trees, ornaments, furniture and landscaping to negotiate.

Centralised cutting-height adjustment through the six positions offered makes the pre-mowing set-up a breeze; Mountfield’s provision of a ‘collector full’ indicator ensures you’ll know in good time when an emptying-stop is required, thereby reducing the likelihood you overfill and block the exit chute (the space-saving canvas collector holds a substantial 60-litres and benefits from a dust-limiting hard top).

This robust, steel-decked model has a mid-range 46cm cut, and is therefore ideal for areas up to 800m2.
