The Husqvarna LC253S is a petrol mower designed for medium-sized gardens. Fitted with large wheels, this rear-wheel drive mower is smooth when in use, has a long service life, and can easily handle rougher terrains. Design features such as an adjustable cutting height and a collection bag make the lawnmower flexible and functional.
Features of the LC253S
- ReadyStart
A standout feature of the LC253S is Husqvarna’s ReadyStart technology which removes the need for priming the engine before use. You are only required to pull the starter code to start operating it.
Worth mentioning is that the mower is self-propelled thanks to the 163cc Briggs & Stratton engine. The engine delivers 4km/h self-propulsion which makes mowing an effortless task.
- Composite chassis
Built using durable and lightweight material, the chassis of the Husqvarna LC253S is designed for the best collection performance.
- Adjustable cutting height
The cutting height is easily and conveniently adjustable thanks to the one-hand grip that is well-balanced. Users can achieve great flexibility when it comes to the height of the cut. The single lever on the mower allows the operator to switch between six different heights, from 20mm and 75mm.
- Ergonomic handlebar
The angle of the handlebar which is ergonomically positioned together with the easy-to-reach bail arms make operating the mower very easy. Additionally, the handlebar can be adjusted to suit your height and can be folded over the machine for simple, convenient storage or transportation.
- Large wheels
The mower features large wheels that allow for smooth movement when in use. It also ensures a longer service life due to its sturdy construction.
- Dust blocker bag
The lawnmower has a collection option that is fitted with a large 60-litre capacity grass collector that comes with a dust blocker bag. The size of the collection bag eliminates the need for stopping and emptying the cuttings often. The dust blocker bag is designed to prevent dust from blowing in your face when mowing.
For long grasses, choose the rear discharge option. This function ejects the cuttings to prevent the mower from becoming clogged up.

Easy to start and cuts the grass very well. Single action height adjustment is excellent. Very pleased.

Very pleased with this mower so far. It cuts and bags so much better than I expected and much better than my Toro ever did. It fills the bag to the brim, its not clogged up yet at all. The mulching kit I bought with it is also good. Cuts perfect, starts first pull, the large wheels are good for undulating or uneven ground, the single height adjuster is clever, lightweight, the deck won’t rust. Can’t ask for more.

This is a simple, well-made and robust machine. I agree with the other reviewer – it doesn’t clog like the Toro machines do. Excellent height adjustment which is simple to use and means you can adjust all four wheels at once rather than having to do each one in turn. The large 53 cm deck is great and it is much lighter than my previous Honda, making it much easier to use. Very pleased indeed with Customer Service from Radmore and Tucker.

A great piece of kit. Very well made and really good to use being self propelled. Delivered within four hours by John all set up and ready to go. That is what I call excellent customer service. Thank you very much appreciated.
