For the occasional gardener electric mowers have become the design of choice. The motors are cheap, simple and reliable as well as being quiet. Of course the big disadvantage is the power cord. It's not just a restriction on the distance of your lawn to the power point, there's the hazard of cutting through the cord as well. Clumsy, oafish people will find this a particular problem, but it could happen to anyone. Cordless battery-powered designs are to be had, and I'll give them their own section.
There's a wide choice of electric mowers on sale. I mentioned low cost; budget electric mowers are very prevalent these days. For those who enjoy the ease of use of the design electric hover mowers are available. There are rotary mulching electric mowers to be found too.
They used to be looked down upon by the serious gardener, but the big brands make electrics too. Some models of Flymo electric mowers are very cheap nowadays, and though Bosch electric mowers tend to be at the top of the market it doesn't put them out of everybody's price range. If you want a name famous for traditional quality then Hayter electric mowers might be your choice.
