Lawn rollers
Gardebruk 101165
The widest drum on this shelf at 60 cm, 11.5 kg empty and about 60 kg filled — one kilo per centimetre.
The widest thing here you push by hand
60 cm.
The rest of this shelf’s hand rollers run 42, 50, 50, 50 and 57 cm. Only a
tow-behind model is wider, and that needs a tractor.
Against a 50 cm drum, 60 cm is a fifth fewer passes over the same lawn.
On a small plot that is nothing. On a large one it is the difference between
forty lengths and thirty-three, with a loaded roller.
What it costs is turning radius and 3 kg of empty weight.
The arithmetic, which this listing supports
11.5 kg empty. About 60 kg filled with water.
Over 60 cm of width that is 1.00 kg per centimetre.
That figure is what actually describes a roller: two machines of the same
weight press differently if one is wider, because what matters is the load
carried along the line where the drum meets the ground.
Three rollers on this shelf publish enough to be reduced to it and they come
out at 0.95, 0.97 and 1.00 — the same machine in three widths. One comes out at
1.50.
This is the widest member of the common group.
The scraper, and what the listing says about it
Integrated, described as reducing soil sticking to the drum so the roller stays
cleaner during work and runs more evenly across the surface.
That is an accurate description of the job. Soil builds on a drum in a ridge,
the ridge makes the roller bounce, and a bouncing roller prints rather than
flattens. Then the ridge falls off somewhere as a lump.
Four listings on this shelf name a scraper and three do not, which is a
surprisingly even split for a part this basic.
The jobs the listing names
Levelling; pressing in seed; work after sowing; work after scarifying;
overseeding; new turf; evening out soil.
Those are the right list, and the fact that it is a list of occasions
rather than a routine is the most honest thing about it.
A lawn roller is not lawn maintenance. It is a tool for the week you sow, the
week you turf, and the week after a frost has lifted the surface. Used monthly
on clay it is the machine that creates the compaction the tools on the next
shelf exist to relieve.
What is missing
No drum diameter, which every other steel roller here publishes.
No sand weight — the capacity is given as 50 litres and the filled figure as
about 60 kg, which is the water case. On the three listings here that publish
both, sand runs 1.57 to 1.74 times the water weight, and this one leaves that
setting unstated.
Availability
From 60 € to 66 €, that being the spread across the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores on the day of the survey.
Beyond the euro zone, the British Amazon store prices it in its own currency, which the spread above sets aside.
Nothing came back from the American Amazon store at all; the buy button there runs a search rather than opening an empty page.
