The STIHL RMA 253 cordless lawn mower is a powerful yet quiet push-along mower designed for small to medium-sized gardens. With its wider cutting width and efficient battery performance, it’s an excellent choice for homeowners who want fast, clean results without the noise, fumes or maintenance of petrol machines.
Built around a robust sheet steel deck, the RMA 253 offers long-lasting durability while remaining lightweight and easy to manoeuvre. The generous 51cm (20") cutting width allows you to cover more ground quickly, making it ideal for homeowners who want to reduce mowing time.
Part of the STIHL AK System, the RMA 253 is powered by the recommended AK 30 S battery, which is interchangeable across the AK range. With two battery slots, you can swap batteries quickly during work, minimising downtime. On a full charge, the RMA 253 can mow lawns of up to 275 m², depending on conditions.
The mower features a versatile 4-in-1 mowing system, allowing you to collect, mulch, side discharge or cut and drop. The large 55-litre grass collection box includes a fill-level indicator and folding design for fast, clean emptying. A height-adjustable mono-comfort handlebar improves ergonomics and folds down easily for compact storage.
With CONSTANT POWER electronics, flow-optimised blades and IPX4 splashwater protection, the RMA 253 delivers consistent cutting performance in everyday UK garden conditions – even when the weather is less than perfect.
