How to use YardRider
YardRider compares lawn mowers listed on Amazon. This page walks you through the tools on the site, in the order you are likely to use them: describing what you need, narrowing the list with filters, sorting it, comparing models side by side, saving favorites and going to Amazon to buy. Each step below says what the tool does and how to use it.
Start with one sentence
The search box takes one sentence describing what you need. An AI model turns that sentence into the comparison's filters. You see the filters it applied and you can remove any of them. The search writes no answer: it only sets filters on the comparison, and it only handles searches about the product.
Examples of sentences the filters can handle:
- a lawn mower for a small yard
- a cordless lawn mower
- a self-propelled mower for uneven ground
- a mower with a mulching option
- a lightweight mower I can push easily
After the search, check the filters that appeared and remove the ones that do not match what you meant.
Set the filters yourself
You can also build the comparison without the search box. Every filter has a "?" next to it that explains what the filter does and what it keeps in the list. Open the "?" before you use a filter you are unsure about.
The filters and the sort are written into the page address. When you share that address, the other person sees the same filtered list.
Sort the list
Sorting changes the order of the models that pass your filters. Like the filters, the sort is written into the page address, so a shared link opens the list in the same order.
Read the badges
A model can carry at most one badge, and the badge is computed within its category. There are two badges:
- Most popular: the model with the most customer reviews in its category.
- Top rated: the best rating among the models in its category with at least 100 customer reviews.
The rule behind a badge shows when you hover over it.
Compare models side by side
You can put up to 4 models side by side. The best figure in each row is highlighted, so you can see where one model is ahead of another. The comparison can be shared with a link.
Save favorites
Every product card has a heart. Use it to add a model to your favorites. The list stays in your browser and we never receive it.
Open a product and check the price
Open a model to see its details. Prices come from the product pages on Amazon.com and are updated every 7 days. The date each price was collected is shown next to it. A model without a price is out of stock.
