LawnMaster Lawn Mowers Compared: Corded, Reel or Battery?

LawnMaster makes the kind of lawn mowers first-time homeowners often end up with: light, simple machines that skip the gas can altogether. The range covers three very different ways of cutting grass. Corded electric mowers plug into an outdoor socket with an extension cord. Push reel mowers have no motor at all, just a spinning set of blades turned by the wheels as you walk. Battery mowers run on rechargeable packs, giving you cord-free freedom without fuel. Each one suits a different yard, a different shed and a different kind of person.
The six LawnMaster lawn mowers below include three corded models from 14 to 19 inches wide, two manual push reel mowers at 16 and 18 inches, and a 24V battery mower that comes bundled with a grass trimmer.

LawnMaster MEB1114K Electric Corded Lawn Mower 15-Inch 11AMP
Price and specifications are read from the Amazon product page and can change.
LawnMaster MEB1114K Electric Corded Lawn Mower
Best for: Small yards and tight storage
Pros
- Light at about 28 lbs
- Fold-down handles
- 7-gallon collection bag
- 5 cutting heights
Cons
- Cord limits range
- Listing mixes 14 and 15-inch width
The LawnMaster MEB1114K Electric Corded Lawn Mower is the lightest corded model here, listed at about 28 lbs. It uses an 11-amp motor spinning at 3,300 RPM. “Amps” describes how much electricity the motor draws; more amps generally means more cutting muscle. The listing is a little inconsistent on size: the title says 15-inch, while the feature list and style name say a 14-inch cutting width.
You get five cutting positions from 1.4 to 3 inches, 7.75-inch rear wheels for easy turning, and a 7-gallon bag that collects clippings so the lawn looks tidy. The push handles fold down for compact storage, which is handy if your only storage is a narrow side passage or a corner of the garage.
It suits townhouse gardens and small backyards close to an outdoor outlet. If your lawn is a bit larger, the 16-inch MEB1216K covers more ground per pass.
LawnMaster LMRM1801 Push Reel Lawn Mower for Quiet Mowing
Lawn Master
LawnMaster LMRM1801 Push Reel Lawn Mower 18-Inch 5-Blade
Price and specifications are read from the Amazon product page and can change.
LawnMaster LMRM1801 Push Reel Lawn Mower
Best for: Quiet mowing of small lawns
Pros
- No gas, battery or cord
- 18-inch cutting width
- 9 cutting heights
- Collection bag included
Cons
- Push power only
- Low maximum height of 2.5 in
The LawnMaster LMRM1801 Push Reel Lawn Mower has no motor, no cord and no battery. As you push, the wheels turn a cylinder of five steel blades that snip grass against a fixed bar, like scissors. The listing says this scissor-like cut avoids ripping and tearing the grass blades, which helps keep a lawn healthier.
It has an 18-inch deck, the widest reel mower in the lineup, 10-inch front wheels, and nine cutting positions from 1.1 to 2.5 inches. A collection bag is included, and it weighs about 12.94 kg. The listing describes it as designed for small lawns.
It is a lovely, quiet choice for early-morning mowing, neighbors who value peace, or anyone who likes a bit of exercise. Reel mowers struggle with tall, overgrown grass, so if you mow less often, a corded or battery model is more forgiving. For a wider look at manual options, see our guide to another push reel mower.
LawnMaster MEB1216K Electric Lawn Mower 16-Inch for Medium Lawns
Lawn Master
LawnMaster MEB1216K Electric Lawn Mower 16-Inch 12AMP
Price and specifications are read from the Amazon product page and can change.
LawnMaster MEB1216K Electric Lawn Mower 16-Inch
Best for: Medium yards with an outdoor outlet
Pros
- 12-amp motor, 3,500 RPM
- 8-gallon collection bag
- Larger 8.86-inch rear wheels
- Fold-down handles
Cons
- Cord to manage
- Heavier than the 14-inch model
The LawnMaster MEB1216K Electric Lawn Mower 16-Inch steps up to a 12-amp motor at 3,500 RPM and a 16-inch cutting width. It keeps the same five cutting heights between 1.4 and 3 inches as the MEB1114K, but adds larger 8.86-inch rear wheels and a bigger 8-gallon collection bag.
The listing says it weighs less than 33 lbs, and the handles fold for storage. It measures roughly 30.4 x 18.18 x 12.99 inches.
This is a sensible middle choice for a typical suburban front and back lawn. If you need an even wider cut or taller cutting heights, the 19-inch ME1218X is next.
LawnMaster Electric Lawn Mower 12AMP 19-Inch for Bigger Lawns
Lawn Master
LawnMaster Electric Lawn Mower 12AMP 19-Inch ME1218X.01
Price and specifications are read from the Amazon product page and can change.
LawnMaster Electric Lawn Mower 12AMP 19-Inch
Best for: Larger lawns and taller grass
Pros
- Widest cut in lineup
- Mulch or side discharge
- 6 heights up to 4 inches
- One-touch height lever
Cons
- Width figures inconsistent
- No collection bag listed
The LawnMaster Electric Lawn Mower 12AMP 19-Inch (model ME1218X.01) is the widest corded option. The listing mentions both an 18-inch cutting width and a 19-inch deck, and the spec sheet lists 19 inches; the deck is described as high-impact and rust resistant. A 12-amp motor turns at 3,600 RPM.
It offers six cutting positions from 1.5 to 4 inches with a one-touch height lever, the tallest maximum setting of any mower here. Instead of focusing on a bag, the listing highlights 2-in-1 mulching or side discharge. Mulching chops clippings finely and drops them back onto the lawn as natural fertilizer; side discharge throws them out to the side. It has 6.7-inch wheels and is listed at 28.3 pounds, although one bullet mentions 35 lbs, so the exact weight is unclear. To keep the deck clean after mulching, some owners use a non-stick deck spray.
Choose it for larger lawns and grass that sometimes gets long between cuts. If you want a bag for clippings, the MEB models list one clearly.
LawnMaster LMRM1602 Push Reel Lawn Mower for Tiny Lawns
Best for: Tiny lawns and eco-minded owners
Pros
- Motorless, very quiet
- 16-inch cut
- 10-inch front wheels
- Lightweight at 22 lbs
Cons
- Only 4 cutting heights
- Collection bag not listed
The LawnMaster LMRM1602 Push Reel Lawn Mower is a smaller, 16-inch version of the reel design. It has five steel blades, 10-inch front wheels and four cutting positions from 1 to 2.5 inches, and weighs 22 pounds.
Like the 18-inch model it offers a scissor-like cut, zero emissions and near-silent operation. The listing does not mention a collection bag for this model.
It is ideal for a tiny patch of lawn, a courtyard or a gift for an eco-minded new homeowner. The LMRM1801 gives a wider cut and more height settings if the lawn is a bit bigger.
LawnMaster 20VMWGT 24V Max 13-inch Lawn Mower and Trimmer Combo
Best for: Cord-free mowing plus edging
Pros
- Mower and trimmer combo
- Two 4.0Ah batteries included
- Fast charger included
- 5 cutting heights
Cons
- Narrow 13-inch deck
- Listed weight looks inaccurate
The LawnMaster 20VMWGT 24V Max 13-inch Lawn mower comes as a combo with a 10-inch grass trimmer, two 24V Max 4.0Ah lithium-ion batteries and a fast charger. The “Ah” figure, amp-hours, describes battery capacity; two packs mean you can swap one in while the other charges. The mower spins at 3,700 RPM and the trimmer at 9,200 RPM.
The 13-inch mower has a rust-resistant deck, five cutting heights and 5.51-inch wheels. The trimmer uses a 0.065-inch dual-line auto-feed head with a pivoting assist handle, perfect for tidying edges the mower misses. The listing gives an item weight of 5.3 pounds, which seems too low for a mower plus trimmer, so treat that figure with caution.
It suits small yards where a cord is a nuisance and you want edging done too. If battery power appeals but you have a larger yard, look at our guide to a battery powered lawn mower with a wider deck.
How to Choose the Right LawnMaster Lawn Mower
Match the width to your yard. Narrow decks (13 to 16 inches) suit small lawns and tight gates. Wider decks (18 to 19 inches) mean fewer passes on larger lawns.
Corded, reel or battery. Corded mowers give steady power without charging but need an outdoor outlet and extension cord. Reel mowers need no power at all but prefer short, regularly cut grass. The battery combo gives freedom from cords, with run time depending on the batteries.
Think about clippings. Bag-equipped models (MEB1114K, MEB1216K, LMRM1801) leave a tidy finish. The ME1218X mulches or side discharges instead.
Check storage. The MEB models fold their handles flat, and the reel mowers are light enough to hang on a wall.
