The major DIY retailer B&Q are selling the 45cm cutting width Mountfield HP45 Ergo petrol lawnmower on their web site. As I write this the price being charged looks competitive for a Mountfield branded mower.

The Mountfield HP45 Ergo model seems to be a B&Q exclusive and is fitted with the Mountfield RS100 OHV 4-stroke 3 hp petrol engine. It looks to be quite similar to the Mountfield HP180 available from MowDirect but that is fitted with the 125cc Briggs & Stratton 300-Series engine.

Specifications for the HP45 Ergo include:

• 45cm cutting width
• 5 cutting height settings
• 55 litre grass collector
• 100cc petrol engine
