Item Description
The business end of this hand pushed reel mower is solid, sharp, and easy to use, with five heat-treated, knife-sharp tempered alloy steel blades that can be adjusted for varying grass heights from 1/2 to 2-1/4 inches. With its 10-inch wheels, radial tires, 18-inch cutting width, and 2-inch welded shrub bar, this mower should enable you to cross whatever terrain and reach whatever hard-to-access rogue patches of grass you desire. Plus, the soft foam cushion on the handlebar is a nice -- and much appreciated -- touch. However, assembly can be a headache, even though the only tool you need is a wrench. The instructions could be clearer, and the handle parts could fit together better. This product is backed by a limited 2-year warranty.

Good for the price

I bought this mower weeks ago, it is working fine in my 50x25 backyard except it's easily locked by tiny plant stems. Once locked, you need to clear it with your hand. Generally, it is nice for its price.
Not for long weeds in the country

I am a busy mother with a small fenced playground, and my giant riding mower won't fit through the gate, so I bought this number at a garage sale for $15. After printing the manual off of the wonderful [...] website, I just lowered the blades with some basic tools, and off I went. It was satisfying to not have to start a stinky, loud riding mower, and to see the bright green grass falling off the blades! But, I found that there is one weed in particular that WILL not be defeated by the reel mower! It has a long green stem with a fuzzy head on the end, and it just bends over and lies flat on the ground. Very frustrating. The reel mower also balks very suddenly if it encounters any sticks, but even Magnolia leaves are chopped to bits, which is handy in parts of the yard. This would be a great purchase for a small yard with perfect green grass and no sticks. It is a pleasure to cut grass with this mower!
great mower

When I went searching for a mower, I wanted to by one that is made in the USA. This is it and I am so happy with my pick. It cuts great, isn't all that hard to push and is great exercise!

Works like a charm,
Cuts the grass as long as you know that push mowers don't cut long grass!
Quiet, clean, green and healthy.
Just what the doctor ordered, or would have if I needed to be told.
Works better than I expected

Easy to push, quiet, does a great job. It does leave a few of the longer strands at times, but I have an electric weedeater for taking care of that. It cuts weeds just fine. The best part is that it is light weight to you don't get blisters on your hands from having to grip so hard to control and push it. I've mowed the lawn at 9:00 at night. (not as hot then) It is quiet enough not to bother the neighbors. Kids could definitely use this.
