Husqvarna LC142i Cordless Lawn Mower Kit (Push)

Husqvarna LC142i Cordless Lawn Mower Kit

The Husqvarna LC142i is a 36V cordless push lawn mower designed for convenient, low-noise maintenance of small to medium-sized domestic lawns. This complete kit includes a Husqvarna B140 battery and C80 charger, allowing you to start mowing without buying the main power accessories separately.

Combining a practical 42cm cutting width with a compact, manoeuvrable design, the LC142i is particularly well suited to gardens containing borders, pathways, trees and other features. It provides the convenience of cordless mowing without petrol, engine starting, fuel storage or a trailing electric cable.

The mower can collect cut grass into its 50-litre collector, discharge clippings from the rear or support BioClip® mulching. Seven cutting-height settings between 25mm and 75mm give you the flexibility to produce a shorter formal finish or leave the lawn slightly longer when conditions require it.

Who Is the Husqvarna LC142i Best For?

The LC142i is a strong choice for homeowners who want a capable battery lawn mower that is simple to operate and easy to manoeuvre. It is particularly suitable for:

• Small to medium-sized domestic lawns
• Flat or gently sloping gardens
• Lawns with borders, trees, paths or narrow sections
• Regular weekly or fortnightly lawn maintenance
• Users moving away from petrol-powered garden machinery
• Homes where quieter mowing is an advantage
• Existing users of compatible Husqvarna 36V battery equipment

Because this is a push mower rather than a self-propelled model, the operator provides the forward movement. This gives you precise control around obstacles and keeps the design simple, but a self-propelled mower may be preferable for larger lawns, steeper slopes or users who want additional assistance.

Key Features and Benefits

Complete B140 Battery and C80 Charger Kit

This version of the LC142i is supplied as a kit with a Husqvarna B140 battery and C80 charger. It is therefore a convenient option for first-time buyers entering the Husqvarna 36V cordless system, rather than a bare-tool package intended only for someone who already owns compatible batteries.

42cm Cutting Width

The 42cm cutting deck provides a useful balance between mowing efficiency and manoeuvrability. It is wide enough to cover a domestic lawn efficiently while remaining manageable around beds, shrubs, paths and other garden features.

Push Drive for Direct Control

The LC142i uses a push-drive system. With no powered wheel drive pulling the mower forward, you remain in direct control of its pace and direction. This can be especially helpful when mowing irregularly shaped lawns or working carefully around obstacles.

For powered assistance, consider the Husqvarna LC142iS self-propelled cordless lawn mower.

Quiet, Cordless Operation

Battery power removes the need for petrol, engine oil and pull-cord starting. There is also no mains cable to manage while mowing. The result is a cleaner, quieter and more convenient mowing experience with simple push-button starting.

The lower operating noise makes a cordless mower particularly attractive in residential areas, where early-morning or evening mowing with a petrol machine may be disruptive.

Three Cutting Methods

The Husqvarna LC142i gives you a choice of cutting methods to suit the lawn, season and preferred finish:

• Collection: Cut grass is gathered in the 50-litre collector for a clean, tidy finish.
• Rear discharge: Clippings are discharged behind the mower when collection is not required.
• BioClip® mulching: Finely processed clippings are returned to the lawn, subject to using the appropriate setup or accessory.

Collection is often preferred for a smart finish and when the grass is longer. Mulching can be useful during frequent mowing because the fine clippings are returned to the lawn instead of being collected for disposal.

Seven Cutting-Height Positions

The cutting height can be adjusted through seven positions from 25mm to 75mm. This helps you adapt the mower to seasonal conditions and the type of finish you want.

A higher setting is generally more appropriate when the lawn is long, stressed, damp or being cut for the first time after a period of rapid growth. A lower setting can then be selected gradually during regular maintenance. Avoid removing too much of the grass blade in one pass, as this can weaken or scalp the lawn.

50-Litre Grass Collector

The 50-litre grass collector offers practical capacity for domestic mowing while keeping the mower compact. Collecting the clippings gives the lawn a tidy appearance and reduces the amount of loose grass left across paths, borders and seating areas.

Compact and Easy to Manoeuvre

The compact deck and ergonomic handle arrangement make the LC142i easy to guide through gardens with tighter sections. It is a practical alternative to a larger mower when manoeuvrability and straightforward storage matter more than maximum cutting width.

Part of Husqvarna’s 36V Cordless Range

The LC142i forms part of Husqvarna’s cordless garden machinery platform. A compatible battery may be used with other suitable products in the range, helping reduce the need to own a separate battery and charger for every tool.

Why Masseys Recommends the Husqvarna LC142i

Masseys recommends the Husqvarna LC142i to homeowners who want the build quality of an established garden-machinery manufacturer in a simple, practical cordless mower. We particularly like the balance created by its 42cm deck: it offers useful coverage for a typical domestic lawn without becoming unnecessarily large or awkward around garden features.

The push-drive design is also refreshingly straightforward. It gives the operator full control, contains fewer drive components than a self-propelled machine and is well suited to relatively level gardens. The included B140 battery and C80 charger make this kit a convenient introduction to Husqvarna’s 36V cordless range.

Its combination of grass collection, rear discharge and BioClip® capability gives it more versatility than a basic collection-only mower. For routine domestic lawn care, the LC142i offers a useful blend of manoeuvrability, quiet operation and recognised Husqvarna engineering.

Husqvarna LC142i or LC142iS?

The main choice between these models is whether you require powered wheel drive:

• Choose the LC142i if you want a push mower for a relatively level lawn and value lower complexity, direct control and easy manoeuvrability.
• Choose the LC142iS if you would benefit from self-propelled assistance, particularly on a larger lawn or where pushing a mower could become tiring.

See the Husqvarna LC142iS cordless lawn mower kit for the self-propelled alternative.

Would a Smaller Mower Be Better?

For a compact lawn, restricted storage space or particularly narrow garden access, a smaller cutting deck may be more convenient. The Husqvarna LC137i cordless lawn mower is worth considering as a more compact alternative.
