Helping you have fun as you make
your garden beautiful

Murray is a company that makes lawn mowers and other chore products.

You might consider purchasing their products if you have a really big yard or you have a business with landscaping and other various services.

Murray Riding Lawn Mowers

The Murray riding lawn mowers are top of the line mowers. These give you the ability to mow a lot of grass in a quicker amount of time than it would take you to push a traditional mower.

If you have a large backyard or front yard grass area you should consider a riding mower.

There is nothing like trying to mow the grass with a push mower. It will take you all day long. As fast as grass grows, you will have to dedicate an entire day out of your week just for mowing if you have a push mower and a lot of grass. In addition, although it is good exercise, it can be hard on your back pushing a mower.

If you have a push mower with a bag on it you will have to take the time to stop every now and then and empty the grass. This only adds time to mowing a large patch of grass.

Power

Murray Picks
Murray 22-Inch Gas Powered Self Propelled 190cc

The Murray riding mowers have 12.5 horse power. They have a Stratton engine underneath a fully enclosed hood. The front wheels are 15” and the rear wheels are 18”.

You can take advantage of a 30 degree turning radius with the mower which makes it easy to turn in tight patches of grass. The blade of the riding mowers is lowerable so when you are ready to mow you just lower the blade and let it go to work.

You can raise the blade when you are riding the mower back into the garage. The riding mowers come with a two year warranty.

Mowing techniques

If you are considering mulching you should consider a few things. It is important to run the motor at full throttle when you use a riding lawn mower, even if you are mowing. You should never mow the grass when it is wet.

This can ruin any type of mower. The grass will track if it is over 1 ½ inches high. You should always clean underneath the deck of the mower after you mow the grass in your lawn. Don’t let it build up or you will decrease the longevity of the mower.

The blade is something to be considered also. There is a special mulching blade and you should be sure you put it on properly. An upside down blade will only drop the grass but not perform the mulching. Also, check the RPMs and be sure they are set high enough.

Murray Push Lawn Mowers

There are many different types of push lawn mowers you might consider from Murray. You can choose from an electric mower or a gas powered mower. Some people have a specific preference for the type of push mower they want.

Electric

An electric push mower from Murray allows you to run an extension cord and mow the grass. This is often a good solution if you have a small patch of grass right up in front of your home.

These mowers have an electrical cord. You will plug in the mower to an extension cord to provide electricity and flip a switch for it to run.

This is a preferred mower because you don’t have to worry about running out of gasoline. It is also preferred over the traditional gas powered push mowers because you don’t have to struggle with the pull strings to get them to start. They start with just the push of a button.

Gas

The gas powered push mowers from Murray allow you to mow the grass while pushing the mower and walking with it. These mowers usually use gasoline and part solution. Some run on only gasoline.

These are usually a good solution if you don’t have a power cord long enough to run across your grass and you have a bigger patch of grass to mow.

Some people prefer the gas powered mowers because you don’t have to worry about being limited on how far away the extension cord is going to reach. The push mowers come with a two year warranty.

Lawn Care Prodcuts

Murray also provides lawn care products for chore work. They offer a high wheel trimmer that is a popular item also. This allows for weed eater work made easy.

These are just like a weed eater on wheels. You don’t have to strain your back and arms by using a weed eater and holding it in an awkward position for long periods at a time.

These allow you to do trimming by simply pushing it around while you work. You don’t have to worry about your arm going numb from the vibration of a traditional weed eater also.

The high wheel trimmers come with the 6.0 Tecumseh engine and you can control the trimming through remote clutch management. You can also adjust the height of the trimmer if it is too tall or short for you.

The trimming width is 22”. The wheels are easy to replace if you need to and there is also a remote throttle. The trimmers come with a two year warranty.

Warranty

Murray lawn products come with a two year warranty. This means that if you have any problems with the mower working or breaking you can have parts replaced, the unit repaired or entirely replaced, depending on the problems. A warranty is a good thing.

You never want to buy a mower without a warranty. If you do it most likely will sit in the garage and you will never get it fixed. This just leads to wasted money out of your pocket. A two year warranty means that you will be ensured that your grass will be mowed and looking nice for the next two years to come.
