- Cordless

Battery cordless mowers can be very expensive. The Ferrex 40V cordless lawn mower from Aldi only costs £130 with the battery and charger but is a bargain or disappointment? We gave it to one of our researchers to see how it cut the lawn. It's one of the store's Special Buy offers, available from 2 May 2019. It can be bought with or without a battery, as it's part of a set of garden and DIY tools from Aldi, all designed to use the same batteries.
