• My new lawn needs cutting so I need a lawnmower. It's got sleepers bordering three sides so I need something that will go right up to the edge and ideally lightweight and compact.

  • What is the square metre? I would be tempted by a battery powered one especially if you already have a range of battery power tools

  • I guess those are not baby Leyland cypress you have in your borders there?

  • I wonder if a manual one plus a cheap compact electric strimmer might not be the best route.

    TBH I can't think of ever seeing a mower that goes up to an edge, so would be curious what you find.

  • The Bosch ones are pretty good at going up to an edge, but won't be perfect. Strimmers are cheap.

  • You can get electric edging shears but not tried them, strimmers are pretty crap for grass edging in my experience. I would just get some long-handled edging shears - will only take you a few mins. I rake the grass away from the edges and the mower picks up the clippings.

  • If storage is an issue one of the robo mowers is a good shout. Would recommend battery mower especially if other tools use the same batteries. I just use shears for the edge
