According to our lawn mower expert
Thanks to the mulch function, the lawn mower shreds the grass and then blows it back onto the lawn as fertilizer.
You can adjust the cutting height centrally with a simple action.
You set the cutting height to your own liking with the 9 cutting height settings.
You don't collect the grass in a container, so you need to rake the grass together.
With the Stiga SCM 440 FS, your lawn will look impeccable in no time. This cylinder mower weighs a hefty 20kg, meaning it's stable on your lawn. You can mow your lawn to perfection in no time with a cutting width of 40cm and a centrally set cutting height ranging from 25 to 76mm. The grass is cut using contactless cutting technology. The rear roller is quiet and produces a tidy finish. An additional advantage is that this lawn mower ejects the cut grass at the front end, meaning the shreds go through the blades several times, so they serve as a natural fertilizer. As you can see, the SCM 440 FS is a pretty useful mower.
This lawnmower perfectly handles small to medium-sized lawns. No engine noise, no annoying cords - from now on you can also mow the grass on Sundays and public holidays! Collection box is optional, but I didn't buy it myself, it's a "mulcher" so that means you don't really have to collect anything, provided you follow it well and don't wait too long between mowings.
Simple mechanical operation, so a lot more reliable than electric or petrol mowers. It is also quite sturdy and thanks to its weight, this lawnmower has no trouble with unevenness. The downside of it? Not so light to lift for storage, but that's about it.
I think the biggest downside is that they use a bit too much plastic particles, nothing that can immediately jeopardize the effect, but I think it's a shame. You buy one of the more expensive (and better) devices and that's fine. But then I don't like having a lot of plastic junk that can quickly break.
Fortunately, the crucial parts are solidly built and I expect to enjoy this lawn mower for many years. The first mowing sessions have already gone well!

After looking for a new lawn mower, we quickly decided that we would go for a hand mower. It is virtually no heavier to use than an electric mower and consumes no fuel/electricity. In order not to have to dispose of bins with grass and to give unnecessary extra nutrition to the lawn, we went looking for a hand mower with mulching function, this turned out not to be many (from well-known brands).
After reading several reviews and comparisons ended up with three lawnmowers:
The Fiskars StaySharp Plus was dropped because several reviews showed that this lawn mower is significantly less in quality and finish. The Fiskars StaySharp Max was actually our preference because of the inwardly placed wheels, which makes it possible to mow close to the edges. Because of the price and doubts about the reliability of the chain system of the StaySharp Max, we finally decided to purchase the Stiga SCM 440 FS.
In the end, we had to wait another month before ordering because this model was sold out everywhere, even Stiga itself indicated that it had a delivery delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We were therefore very happy when the mail came in from Coolblue that the device was available again. Ordered immediately and received the next day.
During assembly it was noticed that the two rods that are attached to the base are identical (although this does not seem to be the intention). This ensures that the nut on the handle cannot be fully tightened on one side (the necessary notch is missing). This doesn't cause any problems but looks a bit weird (but only if you look very closely).
The grass has now been mowed twice and very satisfied with the result, the grass has been mowed very evenly and well cut without pulling or serrations on the grass. This has ensured that even with the warm weather of recent weeks, the tips of the grass have not dried out after mowing.

Yes... he is heavy. But in the case of my lawn, that's just fine. I have an uneven lawn with some bumps and potholes, and my previous mower just flew over it and mowed unevenly. This mower is heavy and lies like a log on the field and therefore mows very well without skipping parts. Be careful that you don't want to turn too fast because then you turn the grass with a wheel. Taking your turns wider solves this. Despite its weight, this mower is easy to push forward and is one of the quietest I've ever had. Even quieter than the whisper mower I had before. The height is very easy to adjust, no hassle with screws and buttons. Definitely recommended for me. And the thing also looks flashy.
