Default Where do you buy a lawn mower - Perth NOR

Can anyone recommended where we can buy a lawn mower.

I know that Bunnings at Whitfords Ave sells them. Where else could I try around the northern suburbs - just so we can compare prices?

Why do there mainly seem to be petrol lawn mowers? I just prefer electric.

Would'nt know where u can buy a lawn mower, but sounds like it would be worth shipping one out when I move out there.

I have booked tickets to fly out in Feb 07 to check the place out with the famiily. My OH brother lives in Perth, how are you finding it other than struggling to find a lawnmower?

Can't help Luma I am afraid. Old man bought ours from Bunnings. The had a special on a few weeks back, got one for $300 but it's petrol though. Why on earth would you want an electric, all that messing about with leads!

l don't know why anyone would want an electric lawn mover, you run over the lead and cut it and get electrocuted.

We love it here and so do our kids.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not battling to get a lawn mower - just asking for the advice of the knowledgeable people on this forum. It just saves time and sometimes people have great ideas/tips.

Like - maybe now I will think about a petrol lawn mower - as I didn't think about the electrocution part!!

In the UK our lawn was about a 10th the size of ours here - so electric was easy as I didn't have to do much maneuvering with the cord.

Might as well go to the Big Green Shed and save a traipsing around (!)

Forget electric.
