Webb WER460ES Classic 18" Self-Propelled Electric Start Petrol Rotary Lawnmower
The WER460ES takes the same 18" (46cm) cutting width and four-mode versatility of the WER460SP and adds two meaningful upgrades — a larger 173cc engine and electric start. For anyone who finds pull-cord starting awkward, or simply wants the convenience of a key or button start, it removes the one aspect of petrol mower ownership that puts some people off.
The Webb DVO173 173cc four-stroke engine produces more torque than the 141cc unit in the WER460SP, which translates to more confident performance in longer, thicker, or tougher grass without the engine labouring. Self-propelled rear-wheel drive at 3km/h handles slopes and larger areas without effort from the operator, and the steel deck and metal cutting blade are built for long-term durability.
Four cutting modes — collecting, mulching, rear discharge, and side discharge — cover every situation across the seasons, the 55-litre mesh collection bag fills completely before needing emptying, and seven cutting heights from 25-75mm via a single lever covers the full seasonal range. At 35kg it's heavier than the pull-cord model, but the self-propelled drive means that weight is carried rather than pushed.
