ALDI Gardenline Push Mower (2007 - 2017)

This review is probably irrelevant, now the mower has been discontinued. Someone was giving this away, I took it home, sharpenened the blades, made some adjustments and voile. It cuts better and is easier to use than my petrol mower. I use it all the time and it's lighter to push and less effort all round to use. I wish I had found push mowing earlier it's actually not that hard

i remember when i bought mine back in 2016 from my local Australian Aldi in Victoria nearest to me and i have no idea why but in doing so well i saw it there on sale in the catalogue during the 10th month of October and from my view it,s a lovely way to keep your small area or courtyard lawn clean and tidy in between usage and cutting jobs and i found if you remove any obstructions like branch twigs rocks etc that are a mowing hazard as we know and will blunt the blades quickly but other than that enjoy the mowing routine the old school way that some of us grew up with during the old days from the 1960s and all onwards

The lawn area I have to mow is quite small, approximately 16 square metres. I also have limited storage space in my garage. I wanted a reasonable finish for a reasonable price, and didn't want to keep buying petrol, or charge batteries, or have a power cord to run over or not be long enough. I found this mower second hand on Facebook Marketplace for $50. It has been discontinued by Aldi, but there are plenty out there for sale. It's very light, ergonomically designed, quiet, and doesn't take up much space. It comes with a catcher as well, but i...

I do like the fact that it is much easier to use that a petrol mower. when my lawn was quit new it worked perfectly but as the grass grew and became much thicker the wheels started to slip and in turn does not turn the blades, due to this I have no option but to use my petrol mower even though I try and mow as often as possible, not sure if this is my unit or a common theme ?

Used it when first got it home, went to use it again, the handle has come off, any chance of any one letting me know how it goes back on, pity it has been discontinued, the price was brilliant, I would recommend this to all who ask about it, as it is a good machine, very good for the environment

Bought one recently and very happy so far. It even tackled parts of the lawn that had gotten a little long. The cutting action of these mowers is more like scissors and gives a better cut than a petrol mower which pulls at the grass. I understand they have plastic gears which can wear out, but it has a 12 month warranty and at $40 the week after it was in the catalogue I'll be happy to get 12 months out of it. Very heartened to see another reviewer has gotten 6 years of of theirs!

I am already finding the stink of the neighbour's petrol mower annoying!

I have cooch grass and a big beautiful tree that drops endless twigs. While I've only used my mower once I am extremely happy. Yes, I need to rake up they larger twigs because they get stuck in the blades...However, the little extra effort is well worth not stinking like petrol after mowing, not having to worry about oil, or running out of petrol, mowing early in the morning because I don't have to consider noise restrictions, AND helping the planet.
The mower cuts beautifully (the catcher really isn't required because the clippings disappear ...

I took mine out of the box, put it together and it has been brilliant. Takes me about the same time to do my yard with this mower as it does with a conventional mower, as long as I mow regularly.
Cost me $50. A brilliant investment. Sits on the side of the step in my garage, ie, takes up no space.
Review number 2 talks about the air filter clogging up. Obviously this does not relate to THIS mower! We are talking about a person powered push mower here, not a fuel powered one with an air filter...
Cheap, good exercise, environmentally friendly, easy to store

This has been fantastic. I've used it for about 6 years on our garden without fail. Sometimes hard in long thick grass, but with a bit of patience and effort it seems to keep going. However, yesterday the roller broke so i am desperately looking for a replacement. No point getting rid of the whole thing just for the want of a roller, anyone know where i can get one?
Light weight, easy to transport, good catcher
Some grass types cause a challenge, but with patience and effort it will cut everything
