How to Get That Classic Wimbledon Striped Lawn

How to Get That Classic Wimbledon Striped Lawn


5 minute read

Get your strawberries and cream ready – next week, Wimbledon will be in full swing! One of the most iconic and competitive professional tennis tournaments, Wimbledon will be taking place between June 27th and July 10th this year. 

The perfectly-manicured lawns on those famous grass courts feature classic stripes, but how can you achieve a striped lawn and bring a little bit of Wimbledon magic into your own back garden? 

Whilst we might not be able to advise on how to improve your serve or your backhand, what we can offer you is a look at our range of Hyundai Roller Lawn Mowers

The rear roller on our lawn mowers isn’t only able to help you produce those classic stripes - it also offers other advantages! Roller mowers offer the benefit of flattening small bumps on your lawn, such as worm casts or leveling out small holes. If you have a particularly bumpy lawn, roller mowers are a fantastic option as the roller helps the lawn mower skirt over the bumps, lessening the likelihood of you accidentally scalping your lawn to keep it looking uniformly neat and green. 

So, whether your home or business features expansive, rolling acres of lawns or you want to make the most of a humble yet beloved grassy patch, here are our top lawn mower picks for getting your lawn to rival that of Wimbledon’s Centre Court this summer. 

The first of our roller lawn mower options is the HYM3800E – the most budget-friendly roller mower on our list. Alongside the rear roller, this Hyundai corded electric lawn mower features a durable anti-rust chassis, a 38cm / 15” cutting width, and a generous 10m power cable – ideal for small to medium-sized lawns. Although this mower isn’t self-propelled like our petrol-powered options, it is lightweight at just 12.5kg, making it easy to push around your garden. This mower features both a 40L grass catcher bag and also an eco-friendly mulching feature that returns fine grass trimmings to your grass for a greener and healthier lawn. 

Did you know: It’s a myth that mulching creates lawn thatch. If your grass is suffering from bald patches, browning or feels spongy underfoot, click here to find out how to fix this. 

Quick and easy to assemble out of the box, this electric mower also features foldable handles for easy transportation in your car boot and compact storage in your garage or shed. As it’s electric, it also requires minimal maintenance – there’s no worrying about charging a battery or dealing with stale petrol or topping up with oil as with other types of mower.

For those with larger lawns, or who prefer the freedom of petrol, we have a range of petrol lawn mowers on offer. 

Our most budget-friendly petrol roller mower option, the HYM430SPR, features a cutting width of 43cm / 17” which is great for small to medium-sized lawns. It’s also self-propelled, meaning it drives itself so all you need to do is steer – no pushing required. This mulching lawn mower features a 45L grass catcher bag as well as 5 adjustable cutting heights to tailor the finish on your lawn. 

Featuring a soft-pull recoil start, the HYM430SPR is powered by an impressive Hyundai 139cc / 3.7hp OHV economical petrol 4-stroke engine for quick and efficient cutting.

For the most convenient option of an electric push-button start, the HYM480SPER is a fantastic option for medium to large lawns. Alongside the split rear roller for those all-important stripes and the advantage of an electric start (as well as recoil backup), this self-propelled petrol lawn mower has all of the same features as the HYM430SPR as well as a 48cm / 19” cutting width and large 70L grass catcher bag for minimal emptying.

With a whopping 53cm / 21” cutting width, this self-propelled mower also features a large 70L grass catcher bag and a 196cc Hyundai 4-stroke petrol engine with low fuel consumption and an easy recoil pull-start mechanism.
