Why a Victa Lawn Mower is the Best Choice: 5 Key Reasons

Operating for more than 70 years, Victa is a name that’s synonymous with high-quality outdoor equipment in Australia. Over the years, they’ve continually refined their design and manufacturing processes to create top-of-the-line lawn mowers for both residential and commercial use.

So, if you’re in the market for a brand new mower, we’re going to break down the many reasons that make Victa an excellent choice. Keep reading for everything that you need to know!

The Victa Brand: A Brief History

Now owned by Briggs & Stratton, the company was originally founded by Mervyn Victor Richardson way back in 1952. How their first mower was created is quite an interesting story as well. 

Working out of his backyard in NSW, Richardson crafted the first official Victa rotary lawn mower, which was lighter, cheaper, and more user-friendly than many of its competitors at the time. From here, they hit the ground running and have never looked back since.

Victa lawn mowers have also become an Australian icon in the eyes of many, with this reputation solidified with their inclusion in the opening ceremony of the Sydney 2000 Olympics.

#1 Quiet Power Technology

Victa lawn mowers offer up to a 60% quieter mowing experience, meaning that your landscaping work will no longer bother the neighbours. Various models from their Bronco and Corvette series come with QPT.

If you’ve ever been concerned about waking up the household or disturbing neighbours while mowing, this feature provides a solution. QPT technology also makes a difference for those who spend extended periods behind the mower, as lower noise levels reduce fatigue, prevent long-term hearing issues, and make the task much more enjoyable. 

So, whether you’re maintaining a small backyard or tackling a larger garden, you can mow away with the confidence that you’re working efficiently and quietly, all while still benefiting from Victa’s powerful and reliable engines.

#2 User Experience

Victa’s current tagline is “products made to make life better”, and their mowers are certainly a testament to this fact. One standout feature is the ReadyStart® system, which takes the hassle out of getting your mower going. There’s no need to worry about priming or choking the engine – just pull the cord, and you’re ready to mow.

Another game-changer is the Quad Blade Cutting System. This advanced cutting mechanism uses four swing-back blades that deliver a cleaner, more precise cut, even in thick, wet grass. It’s designed to improve grass catching and mulching, so you spend less time emptying the catcher or cleaning up clippings. The result? A smoother, more enjoyable mowing experience, whether you’re tackling an overgrown lawn or maintaining your yard regularly.

#3 Powerful Engines

When you choose a Victa mower, you’re not just getting any engine under the hood – you’re getting the reliability and power of Briggs & Stratton or Honda engines. Briggs & Stratton, the engine powerhouse behind many Victa models, is known for its durability and consistent performance. 

For instance, the Corvette 400 comes equipped with a 163cc Briggs & Stratton engine, delivering both the power and fuel efficiency you need for tough mowing tasks. On the other hand, some models feature Honda engines, renowned for their superior longevity and smooth operation. Whether you’re tackling a small backyard or a larger, more commercial space, Victa’s engines will ensure you get the job done efficiently.

#4 Domestic & Commercial Standard

Victa understands that not all lawns are created equal – and that’s why they offer a range of mowers suited to both domestic and commercial settings. This includes battery lawnmowers, petrol mowers, and more.

For homeowners, the Victa Mustang is a standout, with a 19″ alloy chassis and the ever-reliable Briggs & Stratton engine. It’s perfect for tackling standard lawns while providing features like quiet operation and ease of use. 

For commercial users, the Commercial 19″ 850 I/C Lawn Mower is an excellent choice. It’s built tough with a die-cast alloy chassis, a powerful 190cc engine, and 10 selectable cutting heights to handle even the most rugged conditions. So whether you’re a weekend warrior or a professional landscaper, Victa has the right mower for you.

#5 Value for Money

When it comes to finding a mower that delivers bang for your buck, Victa lawn mowers stand out. You’re not only investing in a mower with premium features and cutting-edge technology, but you’re also choosing a product designed to last. 

From the durable materials used in construction to the powerful engines that drive each model, Victa mowers are built for longevity. And with a variety of models to choose from, such as the budget-friendly 16″ Corvette Twin 18V or the more robust Corvette 400, there’s a Victa mower to suit every budget. Additionally, Victa’s focus on efficiency and ease of maintenance means you’ll save both time and money in the long run, making it an all-around great investment.
