THE UK'S NO. 1 GARDEN MACHINERY WEBSITE
The SABO 43 Vario is a premium petrol lawn mower designed for demanding homeowners who require a machine that is both powerful and exceptionally versatile. Built around a robust, rust-resistant aluminium deck, this mower is engineered for longevity and performance in medium to large gardens up to 1,000 m². The standout feature is the "Vario" drive system, which gives you complete control over your mowing speed. Unlike single-speed mowers, the 43 Vario allows you to adjust the drive pace between 2.5 and 4.3 km/h, making it easy to slow down for intricate corners or speed up on long, straight stretches of lawn.
Central to the performance of the 43 Vario is SABO’s renowned TurboStar™ technology. This innovative system uses a powerful fan to create an airflow that straightens the grass blades before they are cut, resulting in a perfectly even finish. This vacuum effect is also incredibly efficient at conveying clippings into the large 65-litre collector, ensuring the bag is filled to capacity and reducing the time you spend stopping to empty it—even when the grass is lush or slightly damp.
Beyond its cutting performance, the SABO 43 Vario prioritises user comfort and practicality. It features a central eight-point cutting height adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune the lawn's finish with minimal effort. The handlebars are not only height-adjustable to prevent back strain but also feature a quick-release mechanism that allows them to fold down in seconds for easy transport or compact storage. With the option to add a mulching kit, the 43 Vario is a truly flexible tool that combines German engineering with effortless usability.

SABO: German Engineering & Uncompromising Quality Since 1932
SABO stands as one of Europe’s premier brands for high-performance garden machinery, specialising in premium battery and petrol walk-behind mowers, as well as highly efficient 2WD and 4WD ride-on flail mowers. From the iconic walk-behind roller mowers to the cutting-edge SABO MOWIT PRO, the range is engineered to serve both the demanding professional sector and the dedicated residential gardener.
For over 90 years, SABO has cultivated an unparalleled reputation for state-of-the-art lawn mowers defined by superior reliability, sophisticated engineering, and an exceptional lifespan. This heritage of "Made in Germany" quality continues today from their headquarters in Gummersbach, where every machine is designed to make outdoor maintenance both efficient and enjoyable.
A New Era of Independence
For many years, SABO’s world-class walk-behind mowers were instantly recognisable across the UK, finished in the famous green and yellow livery of John Deere. Following John Deere’s exit from the walk-behind market in 2020, SABO returned to its roots. Following a successful management buyout (MBO), the company is once again a privately-owned entity. While the machines have traded their green paint for a distinctive and bold SABO red, they retain the original, tried-and-tested designs and robust build quality that professionals have trusted for decades.
Professional Battery Power with EGO Technology
SABO continues to lead the market with a comprehensive range of high-performance battery-powered mowers designed specifically for the professional market. These machines offer the perfect balance of power, flexibility, and sustainability without compromising on results.
By integrating modern 56V battery technology from EGO, SABO cordless mowers deliver petrol-matching performance with the benefits of lower noise and zero emissions. Furthermore, all SABO battery-powered machines are fully weather-resistant; regardless of the British weather, these tools are built for professional use all year round.
