What's the difference between bagging and mulching, and which option is best for my lawn?

A mower with a <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/Bagger/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0str6?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">bagger</a> collects grass clippings in a bag, giving your lawn a clean, manicured look. The clippings can be disposed of or composted. If you want to add nutrients to your soil, choose a <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/Mulching-Lawn-Mower/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0kxsl?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">mulching lawn mower</a>.

I'm seeing a variety of cutting widths. Are there any other benefits to consider besides yard size?

Beyond yard size, wider cutting decks like those <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/21-inches/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0kpa5?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">21 inches</a> and up can often handle thicker grass more efficiently. However, a smaller <a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/17-inches/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0kp94?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">17</a>-<a href="https://www.homedepot.com/b/Outdoors-Outdoor-Power-Equipment-Lawn-Mowers/20-inches/N-5yc1vZc5arZ1z0kpa6?emt=plpfaq_2502_lawnmowers" style="text-decoration: underline;">20-inch</a> deck might be lighter and easier to store if storage space is limited, so consider your needs when choosing.
