I have a small yard, maybe a quarter of an acre. Do I need a big, expensive mower?

Not necessarily! A lighter, more maneuverable push mower or a cordless electric model could be perfect for smaller yards. They're typically more affordable and easier to store, saving you money and space.

I'm looking for a mower that's easy to store and maneuver. What features should I focus on?

Look for mowers with a <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/Foldable-handle/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0str3?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">foldable handle</a> and <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/Smart-Stow/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0kifu?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">Smart Stow</a> capabilities for easy storage. These allow you to store them vertically and save space in your garage or shed. To improve maneuverability, consider a mower with a <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/High-Wheel/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z21ore?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">high-wheel</a> design, as the larger rear wheels make turning and navigating uneven terrain much simpler.

Which cutting widths are available to choose from?
