Stihl RMA253.0 Cordless Lawnmower [Demo Model]

The RMA 253 cordless lawn mower is a practical and reliable choice for maintaining medium-sized home gardens, combining quiet operation, easy manoeuvrability, and robust construction for efficient lawn care. Built with a durable steel deck, the RMA 253 is lightweight and simple to handle, making it easy to push around the garden while still delivering excellent cutting performance.

As STIHL no longer produces domestic-focused lawn mowers within the AP System range, the RMA 253 remains the only model of its kind suited to homeowners looking for the flexibility and performance of the AP battery platform. This also means availability is limited, and this model is now offered as a clearance opportunity while stocks last.

Designed for convenience, the mower features a generous 55-litre grass collection box with a fill level indicator, allowing you to spend more time mowing and less time emptying clippings. A spring-loaded central cutting height adjustment makes it quick and easy to choose between seven cutting heights ranging from 25 mm to 75 mm, adapting effortlessly to different lawn conditions.

The direct-drive EC motor is powered by the STIHL AP System and includes an integrated ECO mode, automatically adjusting power output when full performance is not required to maximise efficiency. The foldable handlebar and easily removable grass box also make storage in a garage or shed more compact and convenient.

Compatible with all STIHL AP System batteries, the RMA 253 offers flexible use alongside other AP System tools. LED indicators on the battery allow you to check the remaining charge level at any time with the push of a button.
