Small garden, often
You mow a small lawn often and you can live with a lead or a light 20 V deck. The corded EM U32 is 32 cm and 7.5 kg at £84.00. The LM C33 is the 20 V 33 cm rotary at 8.6 kg.
Yard Force lawn mower comparison 2026
The best Yard Force lawn mowers, compared.
Top pick: Yard Force LM G32 – A joint-high 4.1-star rating with 1,707 reviews, the largest evidence base among the products scoring 82. Best value: Yard Force EM U32 – The same 4.1-star rating at the lowest shelf price, £84.00, from 35 reviews. Updated October 2026.
A Yard Force lawn mower here is a walk-behind rotary, a corded rotary, a cylinder, or a mower-and-trimmer set on amazon.co.uk. Buyers usually have a small or medium UK garden and want to drop the lead while keeping a height lever. Judge a listing by the voltage platform, the cutting width, and whether the pack and charger are in the box. 40 V and 20 V packs are separate families. The [40 V or 20 V guide](/hub/lawn-and-garden-equipment/yard-force-lawn-mower/sub/yard-force-lawn-mower-40v-or-20v) sets that split out before you compare prices. Star counts run from seven to 1,707, so the score alone does not pick the machine. Kept widths are 32, 33, 34, 37 or 38 cm. The brand shop's 200, 350 and 400 m² lines are the maker's claim, not a measured area. 40 V covers the LM, the LM, the LM and the 40 V twin pack.

Which Yard Force lawn mower fits?
Question 1 of 2
What are you cutting?
The best Yard Force lawn mowers in detail
Our view
The LM G32 combines a compact 32 cm deck with a 40 V 2.5 Ah battery, so it offers cordless movement without stepping up to a wide, heavy mower. Its five 20–60 mm height settings and 30 L hybrid bag suit regular maintenance of a small lawn, while the rear roller can add a light finishing stripe. The listing states an average battery life of 30 minutes, but actual coverage will vary with grass length, moisture and cutting height. What distinguishes this model is the evidence base: 4.1 stars from 1,707 reviews, the largest review count in this comparison by a wide margin. At 11.3 kg it is heavier than the 20 V LM C33 and costs more than the corded EM U32, so those remain better fits for carrying and budget respectively. The balance of rating, review volume and straightforward GR40 specification makes the LM G32 our top pick, though it is not stated to be self-propelled.
Pros
- Largest review count in this comparison
- Compact 32 cm deck with cordless GR40 power
- Battery, quick charger and manual included
- Five cutting heights from 20 to 60 mm
Cons
- Heavier than the narrow 20 V and corded models
- Costs considerably more than the EM U32
- Runtime varies with lawn conditions and is not our measurement
Best for: Small lawns where you want cordless freedom, an established review base and a compact GR40 mower.
Less suitable: The lowest-budget purchase, frequent lifting over steps, or buyers who need a self-propelled machine.

Common questions
Does the LM G32 come with a charger?
Yes. Included components are the lawnmower, battery, charger, and instructions manual.
How many cutting heights does it have?
Five, from 20 mm to 60 mm, on both the bullets and the specification table.
Is it self-propelled?
Not stated. The listing asks the question and does not answer it.
Our view
The LM G34A sits between the compact LM G32 and wider LM G37A with a 34 cm deck, seven heights from 25 to 75 mm and a GR40 2.5 Ah battery. Its 4.1 stars from 573 reviews provide a much firmer basis than the newer LM C37B's seven-review score. The 35 L grass bag and 14 kg weight make it a plausible medium-lawn machine, though it is costly at £220.09 in this extract. Listing quality is a concern: the included-components line names an LM G37A and 40 L bag, conflicting with the LM G34A title and 35 L bullets. The table's 2.5-hour battery line also appears to confuse capacity with runtime, while reviews range from completing a small lawn to about 15 minutes. It is the stronger-established 34 cm GR40 option, but buyers should verify the exact model and box contents before ordering.
Pros
- Established 4.1 rating from 573 reviews
- Seven cutting heights from 25 to 75 mm
- Single-pack GR40 system
- 34 cm deck balances access and coverage
Cons
- Highest price in this comparison extract
- Included-components line names a different model
- Bag size and battery-life lines conflict
Best for: A medium lawn where you want a 34 cm GR40 mower with a sizeable review history.
Less suitable: Budget-led buyers, frequent lifting, or anyone unwilling to resolve listing conflicts before purchase.

Common questions
Does the LM G34A use a GR40 battery?
The bullets say a 40 V 2.5 Ah pack and quick charger, interchangeable with other GR40 products. This is a single 40 V pack, not the two 20 V packs of LM C37B.
Why does the box list mention LM G37A?
The model field and title say LM G34A. The included-components line prints an LM G37A cordless lawnmower and a 40 L bag, while the bullets say a 35 L bag. Those lines conflict in the extract.
Is the 2.5 hour battery figure a runtime?
The table prints battery average life 2.5 hours next to a 2.5 Ah pack. Reviews describe both a full small-lawn cut and, later, about 15 minutes. Do not treat 2.5 hours as a measured runtime.
Our view
The LM C38A uses a five-blade cylinder rather than a rotary blade, giving it a different role from every other mower in this comparison. Its 38 cm reel and stated 14–43 mm range target a regularly maintained, relatively level lawn where you mow little and often. A 45 L bag, rear roller and CR20 4.0 Ah battery are included, so the package is more substantial than a basic hand cylinder mower. The specification table prints centimetres for the cutting heights, but the listing bullets give the plausible 14–43 mm range. Its 4.1 stars from 85 reviews are encouraging without being as well established as the LM G32's result. Choose it for the cylinder cutting style, not as a general solution for rough, long or uneven grass.
Pros
- Five-blade cylinder cutting action
- Low stated range from 14 to 43 mm
- Large 45 L grass bag
- CR20 battery and charger included
Cons
- Requires frequent mowing on reasonably even grass
- Poor fit for long or rough lawns
- Specification table misprints cutting-height units
Best for: A level, regularly maintained lawn where a lower cylinder cut and little-and-often routine are the priority.
Less suitable: First cuts, long grass, bumpy ground, or buyers wanting the forgiving behaviour of a rotary mower.

Common questions
Is the LM C38A a rotary mower?
No. The item type is cylinder lawnmower, and the bullets describe five steel cylinder blades. The best-seller line still sits under rotary mowers.
What cutting heights does it list?
The bullets say four heights between 14 and 43 mm. The table prints 14 centimetres and 43 centimetres.
Does it include a battery?
Yes. The title and included-components line name the lawnmower, a 20 V 4.0 Ah battery, and a charger, in the CR20 range.
Our view
The EM U32 gives you a 32 cm cut from a light 7.5 kg deck, making it practical for a compact lawn within reach of a socket. Its 1,200 W motor avoids charging pauses, while five settings from 20 to 60 mm cover routine mowing rather than an ultra-short ornamental finish. The £84.00 shelf price is the lowest in this comparison, so it is the best value if managing a lead is acceptable. A rear roller is fitted, but reviewers describe the stripe as faint rather than strongly defined. More seriously, multiple reviewers report that the light roller can snap off, which weakens the case for buying it mainly for stripes. The 4.1-star line is based on only 35 reviews, so it carries less evidence than the similarly rated LM G32.
Pros
- Lowest shelf price in this comparison
- Light 7.5 kg body and narrow 32 cm deck
- No battery charging or replacement cost
- Five cutting heights from 20 to 60 mm
Cons
- Mains lead needs managing and suitable RCD protection
- Rear roller produces only a light stripe
- Repeated reviewer reports of the roller snapping
Best for: Small lawns close to a suitable outdoor power supply, especially where low weight and purchase price matter most.
Less suitable: Gardens where a lead must cross paths or steps, and buyers who want a pronounced stripe or cordless freedom.

Common questions
Does the EM U32 come with a battery?
No. The included-components line is the lawnmower only. The bullets describe corded 1,200 W operation.
Is the EM U32 self-propelled?
The listing asks the question and does not answer it. Nothing in the bullets says it is self-propelled.
Will the rear roller leave stripes?
A rear roller is stated. UK reviews say the roller is light, so stripes are faint, and more than one reviewer says the roller snapped off.
Our view
The LM C37B uses two CR20 20 V 4.0 Ah batteries together, delivering the listing's combined 40 V through a 37 cm rotary deck. Seven height settings from 25 to 75 mm, a 40 L bag and an included mulch plug make it the most flexible current rotary specification in this set. Foldable handles help with storage, but the 14 kg body is better rolled than carried over several steps. The 4.1-star headline is based on only seven reviews, far too little evidence to outweigh established alternatives on rating alone. One of those reviews reports a split roller clip and difficulty obtaining a replacement roller, which is a meaningful support concern. It is worth considering if you already own pairs of CR20 packs and need mulching, but not as a default pick for a first-time Yard Force buyer.
Pros
- Two 4.0 Ah CR20 batteries included
- Seven heights from 25 to 75 mm
- 40 L collection or stated mulch plug
- Foldable handles for storage
Cons
- Rating is based on only seven reviews
- One review reports a failed roller clip and no spare roller
- Heavy at 14 kg
Best for: CR20 owners who can use two packs together and specifically want a 37 cm deck with a mulch option.
Less suitable: Buyers who want a mature reliability record, easy carrying, or compatibility with a single GR40 battery.

Common questions
Is the LM C37B a GR40 40 V mower?
The title says 40 V. The bullets say two 20 V 4.0 Ah batteries for a combined 40 V output, compatible with the CR20 range. That is not a single GR40 pack.
Can it mulch?
Yes, on this listing. The bullets offer the 40 L bag or a mulch plug.
How many people have reviewed it in this extract?
The listing line is 4.1 from 7 reviews. One of those says the roller clip split and a replacement roller was no longer available.
Our view
This twin pack puts the 32 cm LM G32 mower and a 30 cm LT G30 trimmer on one shared 40 V battery, giving you the two main lawn jobs in one box. The mower keeps the useful five-height 20–60 mm range and rear roller of the standalone model. The key limitation is in the title: you receive one battery, not one for each tool, so mowing and trimming cannot continue independently while the other pack charges. Its 4.0 rating from 1,139 reviews is well established, though slightly below the standalone LM G32's 4.1 line. At £165.00 it was only £5.01 above the standalone mower in the extract, which makes the bundle attractive if you genuinely need the trimmer. It is less compelling if you already own a compatible trimmer or want two batteries for uninterrupted work.
Pros
- Mower and 30 cm trimmer included
- Shared 40 V platform keeps the kit simple
- Large review base
- Small price step over the standalone LM G32 in the extract
Cons
- Only one battery for two tools
- Mowing and trimming compete for the same charge
- Grass-box capacity is not stated in the Amazon extract
Best for: A small lawn that also needs regular edge trimming, when one shared battery is enough for the whole job.
Less suitable: Homes that already own a trimmer, or anyone expecting two packs and uninterrupted back-to-back use.

A grass trimmer, listed as 30 cm with a flower guard and support wheels, plus the charger and the single battery.

Not stated. The listing asks the question and does not answer it.
Our view
The LM C33 pairs a 33 cm deck with a 20 V 4.0 Ah battery, a combination suited to regular cuts on a small lawn. At 8.6 kg it is only slightly heavier than the corded EM U32, and the folding handle is useful when shed space is tight. The listing states a 30 L grass box and five heights from 20 to 60 mm, despite an obvious centimetre error in its specification table. Its stated 25-minute battery life is a listing figure rather than our measured runtime, and long or heavy grass will reduce what one charge can cover. The 4.0 rating from 102 reviews gives a broader evidence base than the EM U32, although it trails the best-rated models by a small margin. It is a sensible cordless small-garden choice, but not a model to buy on the assumption that it is self-propelled.
Pros
- Light 8.6 kg body for steps and tight gardens
- Battery and charger stated in the listing bullets
- Folding handle helps with compact storage
- Five cutting heights from 20 to 60 mm
Cons
- Runtime figure is not independently measured
- Long grass can demand more than one pass or charge
- Specification table misprints the height units
Best for: Small lawns where a mains lead is inconvenient and a light, narrow mower is easier to store.
Less suitable: Overgrown or larger lawns, and anyone expecting self-propulsion or a verified full-lawn runtime.

What is the cutting height?
The bullets say five heights from 20–60 mm. The specification table prints 20 centimetres and 60 centimetres, which conflicts with the bullets.
Is it self-propelled?
Not stated. The bullets call it a push-along design with a folding handle.
Our view
The LM C33B and LT C25B set combines a 33 cm mower and 25 cm trimmer around one CR20 20 V 5.0 Ah battery. At 8.6 kg, the mower remains easy to move through a narrow gate or carry to a small lawn, while the 30 L box is appropriately compact. One battery serves both tools, despite imagery that a reviewer felt suggested two, so the pack count needs checking before purchase. The listing's five-hour battery-life line is not credible as a mowing runtime beside a review reporting about 15 minutes from a full charge. Its 3.8 stars from 37 reviews is also a thinner and weaker evidence base than the separate LM C33 or the GR40 twin pack. The set makes sense when low mower weight and included edging matter, but the battery presentation and runtime conflict require realistic expectations.
Pros
- Light 8.6 kg mower
- Mower, trimmer, battery and charger in one set
- 5.0 Ah CR20 pack stated
- Five heights from 20 to 60 mm
Cons
- Only one battery for both tools
- Listing runtime conflicts sharply with reviewer experience
- Modest 3.8 rating from 37 reviews
Best for: A small garden needing both mowing and edge trimming, where low weight matters more than long continuous runtime.
Less suitable: Larger lawns, buyers expecting two batteries, or anyone relying on the listing's five-hour battery figure.

Common questions
Does this set include two batteries?

How long does the listing say the battery lasts?
The table prints a battery average life of 5 hours. A UK review says a full charge lasted about 15 minutes. Those two lines conflict.
Is the mower self-propelled?
Not stated. The listing asks the question and does not answer it.
Our view
The LM G37A covers more ground per pass with a 37 cm deck and collects into a 40 L hybrid bag, which suits a small-to-medium lawn better than the 32 cm models. Its GR40 2.5 Ah battery and quick charger are included, and the seven stated height settings from 25 to 75 mm give useful scope for a high first cut. BBC Gardeners' World reported about 25 minutes in its test of the LMG37A, but that result should not be treated as our measurement or a guarantee for this current Amazon listing. The live extract is less reassuring at 3.7 stars from 598 reviews, with battery life a recurring source of complaints. At 16 kg it is also substantially heavier than the compact 20 V options, especially when carried over steps. The wider deck is worthwhile when it saves repeated passes, but the review pattern keeps this older GR40 model off the top pick.
Pros
- 37 cm deck reduces passes on a medium lawn
- Seven stated heights from 25 to 75 mm
- 40 L hybrid grass bag
- GR40 battery and quick charger included
Cons
- Battery life is a recurring review complaint
- Heavy at 16 kg
- Specification table conflicts with the stated minimum height
Best for: Small-to-medium lawns where a 37 cm deck and the GR40 platform are more useful than minimum weight.
Less suitable: Buyers prioritising dependable runtime evidence, easy lifting, or the strongest Amazon review sentiment.

How we compared
Scores convert each current amazon.co.uk star rating to a 0–100 scale by multiplying it by 20, then show that figure on a 1–10 scale. They are editorial comparison scores, not a Products Compared laboratory test. The Amazon review count sits beside each score so a large evidence base is not treated the same as a handful of reviews. Prices, ratings and review counts are the 15 October 2026 amazon.co.uk extracts and may change.

Yard Force lawn mower buying guide
Match the battery family first, then the width, then rotary or cylinder. A trimmer in the box still shares one pack unless the listing says otherwise.
What is a Yard Force lawn mower?
A Yard Force lawn mower in this set is a walk-behind on amazon.co.uk: a cordless rotary, the corded EM U32, the cylinder LM C38A, or a mower sold with a trimmer. Buyers usually have a small or medium UK garden and want to drop the lead, keep a height lever, and know whether the pack and charger are in the box. Battery platform comes first. GR40 40 V covers the LM G37A, the LM G32, the LM G34A and the 40 V twin pack. CR20 20 V covers the LM C33, the 20 V twin pack and the cylinder LM C38A.
Best for
- A small or medium UK lawn on a GR40 or CR20 walk-behind
- A fine lawn mown little and often with the LM C38A cylinder
Not ideal for
- A self-propelled mower, which none of these listings claim
- A bank or a neglected paddock, which needs a different machine
Mistakes to avoid
- 1
Reading LM C37B as GR40
The title says 40 V. The bullets say two 20 V 4.0 Ah packs and CR20 compatibility. That is not a single GR40 pack, and a GR40 charger does not feed it.
- 2
Trusting battery average life
The LM G34A table prints 2.5 hours and the 20 V twin pack prints 5 hours. Owner reports are much shorter. Those lines are not a measured runtime.
- 3
Starting on the lowest notch
RHS wants the highest setting for the first cut, and no more than one-third of the height removed. A light roller will not leave a heavy stripe.
What to weigh up
Battery platform
HighPlatform decides the spare you will buy later. GR40 40 V covers the LM G37A, the LM G32, the LM G34A and the 40 V twin pack, each with a single 40 V pack in the box except where the twin-pack title says one shared battery. CR20 20 V covers the LM C33 with a 4.0 Ah pack, the 20 V twin pack with one 5.0 Ah pack, and the cylinder LM C38A with a 4.0 Ah pack. The LM C37B title says 40 V, but the bullets say two 20 V 4.0 Ah packs for a combined 40 V output and CR20 compatibility.
Width and lawn
HighKept listings are 32, 33, 34, 37 or 38 cm. The corded EM U32 is 32 cm and 7.5 kg. The LM C33 is the light 20 V 33 cm rotary at 8.6 kg. The LM G32 is the 40 V 32 cm model with the largest review count. The LM G34A is 34 cm and the LM G37A is 37 cm, both GR40, at 14 kg and 16 kg. The LM C37B is two 20 V packs in a 37 cm deck at 14 kg. The LM C38A is the 38 cm cylinder.
Which option suits you?
Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.
Medium lawn, GR40
You can push about 14 kg and you want a GR40 deck. The LM G34A has 4.1 from 573 reviews at the higher price. The LM G37A is cheaper here and scores 3.7, with battery complaints dominating.
Fine lawn, little and often
You mow a level lawn little and often and you can adjust a reel. The LM C38A is the 38 cm cylinder with five steel blades and bullet heights of 14–43 mm. Other jobs in this set stay on a rotary.
Common questions about Yard Force lawn mowers
Which Yard Force lawn mower is the top pick?
The top pick is the Yard Force LM G32. It is a 32 cm cordless rotary with a 40 V 2.5 Ah pack, a quick charger, five heights from 20–60 mm and a 30 L bag. On amazon.co.uk on 15 October 2026 it was £159.99, with 4.1 from 1,707 reviews, the largest review count in this set. It is not stated to be self-propelled. The listing's 30-minute battery line is not our measurement.
Which model is the best value?
The best value is the corded EM U32 at £84.00, the lowest shelf price here. It is 32 cm, 1,200 W and 7.5 kg, with five heights from 20–60 mm and no battery in the box. It shares the 4.1-star rating, from 35 reviews. Reviewers describe a light stripe, and more than one says the roller snapped off. A lead needs a BS 1363 plug, a fully unwound outdoor cable, and 30 mA RCD protection.
Do GR40 and CR20 batteries fit the same mower?
No. GR40 40 V covers the LM G37A, LM G32, LM G34A and the 40 V twin pack. CR20 20 V covers the LM C33, the 20 V twin pack and the cylinder LM C38A. A GR40 charger does not feed a CR20 pack. The LM C37B title says 40 V, but the bullets say two 20 V 4.0 Ah packs and CR20 compatibility. On the brand shop a GR40 2.5 Ah pack is £79.99 and a CR20 2.5 Ah pack is £39.99.
How much does a Yard Force lawn mower cost on amazon.co.uk?
On these nine listings on 15 October 2026, entry is about £84 to £120 (EM U32 and LM C33). Mid is about £145 to £170 (LM G37A, LM G32, and both twin packs). The top of this set is about £190 to £220 (LM C38A, LM C37B and LM G34A). Brand-shop GR40 cards at £229.99 and £239.99 are a different shop. Do not paste them into the amazon.co.uk column.
Should you buy a rotary or a cylinder?
RHS points most domestic lawns to a rotary and a fine, frequent lawn to a cylinder. LM C38A is the only reel here: 38 cm, five steel blades, bullet heights 14–43 mm, a 45 L bag and a CR20 4.0 Ah pack, at £189.99. It is the wrong tool for grass left long. The table prints those heights in centimetres, which conflicts with the bullets. Every other model in this set is a rotary.
Are these mowers self-propelled, and can they mulch?
None of these listings say the mower is self-propelled. A mulch plug is explicit on the LM C37B only, beside a 40 L bag. B&Q lists the LM G34A without mulching. Bags elsewhere are 30, 35, 40 or 45 litres, and the 40 V twin pack does not state a grass-box size. Do not expect a heavy stripe from a light roller.
What are the UK noise and lead rules?
Lawnmowers fall under the Noise Emission in the Environment by Equipment for Use Outdoors Regulations 2001. For cutting width L of 50 cm or less, the stage II ceiling is 96 dB guaranteed sound power, marked on the machine. Every width here is in that band. Corded use needs a BS 1363 plug, an outdoor lead fully unwound, and 30 mA RCD protection. Electrical Safety First says test the RCD and do not mow wet grass with a lead. Remove the pack or unplug before you clear the blade. A robot is a different machine: see the Yard Force robotic lawnmower comparison. A bank or a neglected paddock needs a different machine again.
What should you ignore on the listing?
Do not treat battery average life as measured runtime. The LM G34A table prints 2.5 hours and the 20 V twin pack prints 5 hours, against much shorter owner reports. Do not take the first cut on the lowest notch. RHS wants the highest setting and no more than one-third of the height removed. Where a listing states a warranty it is about two years. The LM G37A adds a year if you register within 28 days. Lithium packs use the crossed-out wheelie bin: tape the terminals and take them to a shop battery point or a household recycling centre.
Our verdict
For a compact cordless mower with the largest review count, the top pick is the Yard Force LM G32: 32 cm, a 40 V 2.5 Ah pack and charger, and 4.1 from 1,707 reviews at £159.99. It is not stated to be self-propelled. If you want the lowest shelf price and can manage a lead, the best value is the corded EM U32 at £84.00. It matches that 4.1-star rating from 35 reviews. Recurring roller complaints, and the smaller review total, keep it off the top pick.
