Stiga lawn mower buying guide: match the lawn size

Updated: October 2026

You already know you want a STIGA, and amazon.co.uk is offering a push mower beside a robot. They are not the same job. This Stiga lawn mower buying guide puts the family first, then the stated lawn area, then the facts the listing must print. The eight-row table stays on the [Stiga lawn mower comparison](/hub/lawn-and-garden-equipment/stiga-lawn-mower). A purchase through our links may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Two Stiga mowers, not one ladder

A collector is a 20 V mower you push, and the grass goes into a box. A robot mulches inside a map you draw in STIGA.GO. The collectors here are the 132e Kit at about £179 and the 136e Kit at about £199. Robots start at the A 6v at about £949 and the A 4 at about £999, then about £1,097.40, £1,299, £1,299.34, and £1,466.38. STIGA’s UK shop showed the A 6v at £1,199 in this pass. Use the amazon.co.uk price on the ASIN you open. They are not one kit with two decks. The 132e is a 30 cm, 4 Ah title with three height positions and no star line. The 136e is hand-propelled, with a millimetre height and 264 reviews. The method split is on robot mower or cordless push mower.

Match the square metres

Each listing prints a ceiling: 150, 300, 400, 600, 800, 1,000, or 1,500 m². That is the stated area, not a survey of your garden and not one battery charge. STIGA’s 136e page says “300 sqm in one charge”. Review text often says the charge ran out first, including on about 200 m². Keep those sentences apart. A lawn of about 200 m² sits under the 136e and under the smallest robot, the A 4 at 400 m². A bigger ceiling is not a finer cut. Write down the square metres you mow. How to measure your lawn is that step. Stop when the stated area covers the figure and the other lines are filled in.

Five checks before you add to basket

Slope counts only as a number. The A 6v, the A 8v, and the 5 Ah A 15v print 45%. STIGA’s A 6v page also writes 24°. The A 4 has no percent. The garage-cover listings only say challenging sloped terrain. Then read the box on that ASIN. The 132e title includes a battery and a charger. The 136e includes two 2 Ah packs and a dual charger. Several robot listings do not confirm a charging base. The cover ASINs confirm a plastic cover, not the station. A virtual perimeter still needs a dock. Collectors use a 30 L or 35 L box. Robots that mention clippings say daily mulching, and the A 4 states no method, so do not borrow it. The A 4 says RTK AGS and no wire. Other robots say an AI camera, which still means you draw a map. Six ASINs have no star line, so the blanks decide.

If your garden looks like this

A small flat patch you will walk: open the 136e if you want 25–75 mm and 264 reviews at about £199. Open the 132e at about £179 only inside 150 m², and only if you can live without reviews or a millimetre height. A conditioned pick is on best Stiga lawn mower. A weekday when nobody is home: match a robot ceiling, not the largest number. The A 6v at about £949 prints 600 m², 18 cm, 2 Ah, and 45%, with no reviews and no confirmed base. Do not pay about £1,466.38 for a thin 1,500 m² title. A printed 45% is not a licence to map the steep face, and an adjective is not a percent.

Common questions

How big a lawn can each listing actually claim?
The pages state 150, 300, 400, 600, 800, 1,000, and 1,500 m², in that model order from the 132e to the A 15v rows. Those are ceilings, not a survey of your garden, and not one charge unless that page says so and you still treat it as the maker’s claim.
Is the 132e the same kit as the 136e with a smaller deck?
No. The 132e is 30 cm and a 4 Ah title at about £179, with three height positions and no reviews. The 136e is 34 cm at about £199, with two 2 Ah batteries, 25–75 mm, a 35 L bag, and 4.4 from 264 reviews. The part numbers differ. The cheaper listing will not grow the 136e’s height range.
Do I need a boundary wire?
Not on these eight listings. They say no boundary wire, RTK AGS, or a virtual perimeter with an AI camera. You still draw a map in the app. Wire-free does not mean the charging base has been confirmed in that amazon box.
What if my lawn is 200 m² and the robot starts at 400 m²?
You can stay with the 136e, stated to 300 m², and push it. You can look at the A 4 or the A 6v if you want mowing while you are out, because a ceiling above the lawn is allowed. You do not need a 1,500 m² robot for a 200 m² patch. A higher ceiling does not improve the cut.
Why are there two A 15v prices?
They are two ASINs. B0GMRG616G is about £1,097.40, with 5 Ah and 100 no-go zones, and one UK review at 1.0. B0H6GS6NMY is about £1,466.38, with a garage cover and up to 50 no-go zones, and no 5 Ah in the title. Compare the lines, not the shared name.
Should I trust up to 300 m² on one battery charge?
Treat “300 sqm in one charge” as STIGA’s sentence on the 136e shop page. The amazon sample often says the battery ran out first. “Up to 300 m²” on the title is a stated area. It is not a test we ran, and it is not a promise that your grass, at your height, finishes in one charge.
