I have never used one of these before until today. This is a great little mower! Very quick and easy to put together. Lightweight. If the grass is too long it wants to push it over instead of cut it. It has to be pretty long for that to happen though. I had to go over some spots again where it missed a few pieces, but overall it did a really good job! Easy to use and fun to listen to the noise it makes when it's cutting. You have to do a good job of picking up any tiny little sick though because it's even the smallest twig will stop you in your tracks. That wasn't that big a deal though. I would definitely recommend this! Also, the four blade is actually better than the five blade if you have any kind of weeds or taller grass. The five blade does a more thorough job, but only if you have really nice grass and you mow really often.

I only bought this thing because I was tired of taking a gas can to the gas station. This solved that problem, but it also solved other problems that I didn't even think of. Before I continue, let me say that I understood when I bought this that it's not going to leave the lawn looking as good as it does with a power mower, but it comes close . . a LOT closer than I thought! As far as it solving other problems, I used to have to worry about which direction I was pointing the mower in case I hit a rock or something that could end up flying through a window, or hurting somebody. I don't have to worry about that anymore. That alone made this worth buying for me. If I hit something like a sprinkler head, it doesn't destroy the head and the blade, but rather, everything just stops. It's safe for a kid to use with no worries. I can grab the upright part of the handle and just lift it up and over stuff like I do with a vacuum cleaner, which means no more having to move stuff around in the garage so I can dig out the mower. I just lift it up and walk right out the front door if I want. The people in my neighborhood that drive electric vehicles praise me for "going green" (I didn't tell them I only bought it because I was fed up with getting gas cans filled) Tip: If it doesn't cut a piece of grass on the first pass , back up and go across it slowly to give the blade a chance to grab the grass. (It's not like that is constantly happening, just once in a while. For super-stubborn weeds, park the mower blades directly above the weed and then spin in a stationary circle . . like you're trying to drill a hole) Update: I've had the mower for over a year now and I am extremely satisfied with it. It actually stopped working today (the blades quit spinning). It turns out it is SUPER easy to fix. All that was wrong was some dirt got inside the wheel casings and caused a pin to freeze up. The good news is there are only 4 parts. A "C" clip, a wheel, a gear, and a pin. Remove the C-clip and slide the wheel off, then slide the gear off. Then pull the pin out with your fingers. Spray everything (the pin and inside the hole) with WD-40 to remove the dirt. (Wipe off as much of the excess oil as you can so dirt doesn't stick to it again). Slide the pin back in, then replace the gear, the wheel, and the clip, and you are done! It only took about 10 mins and that's with me making a mistake and having to do the first side over again. (The mistake is I put the pin in backwards. The "Inclined surface" or "Ramp" side goes to the front. You'll see what I mean. Take a picture before you pull the pin out if you are worried) TIP: Have the mower laying on it's side with the axle going up and down and the wheel parallel to the floor. This keeps the pin from trying to fall out while you put everything back together again. The mower works perfect again! Good as new! Now I know how to do all the maintenance on it (and so do you now) Plus I bought a blade sharpener from Amazon when I bought the mower. It works perfect. AAAQQ Reel Mower Sharpening Kit SK-2 for American Lawn Mower, Lawn Mower Blade Sharpener Tool for Great States,Scotts,Earthwise Reels. One more thing - the handle grips eventually wore out - and I replaced them with grips I bought on Amazon that work really well. These grips seem like they will last much longer, and not too expensive either. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F21HP6X3?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

This was a backyard game saver ! I have a very hilly and tiered backyard with rock retaining walls- virtually impossible to get a lawnmower up and down and after moving into my house I could not figure out how to keep the grass trimmed acceptably and my shoulders rebelled against continuously using the Weed whacker. Then I found this magical, lightweight beast. It’s not perfect- I have not been able to use it pushing it because it catches on every teeny tiny twig. However, the trick is to pull it backwards and bypass the weird level rolling thing. I still haven’t been able to figure out if it’s adjustable or not but if it is it’s beyond my capabilities. Just tilt it up and pull it backwards and it trims everything. This truly has been one of my favorite purchases this summer. It’s also been effective for small patches of grass that needed trimmed in the dead of summer when the majority of the grass has died down. Much easier to pull out my nifty push mower on those small spots then get out the lawnmower. 4 stars because I can’t push it without it getting stuck on every tiny twig.

So, going into using this I did not have the highest hopes, but for the price I was going to give it a shot. First, I did everything you’re not supposed to do and used it when my grass was mile high and also super wet. Still this thing cut through it after a few pushes in the same spot. Yes it will take more time than a traditional gas mower, but it will still get the job done the same. This is perfectly ideal for cutting smaller areas like a front lawn so your neighbors will get off your back. I have gotten it stuck once or twice but a good push will fix this is issue. Also, it’s not the best with some weeds and might need extra pushes over them or for you to just use a weed wacker. Just make sure to spray it with some WD40 at the end of use in the blades and inside the wheels and you’re good to go. Haven’t had to sharpen the blades yet. I can definitely say I was pleasantly surprised with this purchase.

Okay first of all, I'd just like to say that I am autistic, and I absolutely LOATHE mowing the lawn. The mower is too loud, the vibrating of the handle makes my arms go numb, and I can never quite pull on the cord hard enough to get it started by myself. I always have to find someone else to turn it on for me. And not to mention the fact that the smell of gasoline gives me a headache. So I finally decided to see if any old-fashioned mowers still existed, because I would much rather deal with something slower and time-consuming if it meant I wouldn't have to deal with using a normal lawn mower. Imagine my surprise when I found that there are /new/ manual lawnmowers, and I can just order them from Amazon! So I decided I had nothing left to lose, and I would give it a try. Best. Decision. EVER. NOTE OF ADVICE: If you have difficulty putting it together (specifically, attaching the handle to the blade part), find someone with more upper-body strength to help you. They'll get it done in two seconds. (it took me half an hour of attempting to do so before I gave up and waited for my sister to get home so she could help me) Also: it only cuts while you're pushing it forward, so all you have to do to move it when you're not cutting is to pull it along behind you. As for cutting grass? I love it. It works perfectly, aside from a few snags on branches that I didn't notice. If you move it forward and back a few times, you can cut even tall weeds! Much easier than pulling them out by hand in the areas that the normal gas mower can't reach. It's not silent, but it's also not the deafening roar of a gas mower. If I had to describe the sound, I'd say it's a whooshing sound, and much much quieter than a gas mower. Plus, you don't have to deal with your arms vibrating or constantly having to turn the mower back on! No more buying gas, no more struggling to pull on the cord hard enough to turn the mower on, and no more complicated wire-pulling to turn it off. All I have to do is push forward, and the grass gets cut. Stop walking, and it stops cutting. It's easy to maneuver, and it's not so heavy that I can't pick it up and carry it up a flight of stairs to my porch if I need to. I'm never using a gas mower again.

Pros: Inexpensive Easy Assembly Does cut grass Lightweight Low Profile Cons: Easily jammed Not very sturdy This hand reel mower does what it claims but with some limitations. The good: Its one of the cheapest options out there. I put it together in less than 5 minutes. It does cut grass under a certain length effectively and its relatively small size makes it easy to store if you don't have a large garage or shed. The bad: The blades will cut grass pretty effectively as long as its not too thick or there's any "debris" like small twigs or pieces of mulch around. If the grass is too thick the reel will lock up but I was able to get around this by backing up and just pushing the mower harder, which greatly increases the amount of effort as I would have to do this over and over every step in the areas with thick grass. But if anything a bit harder than grass like a piece of mulch or a twig is caught in the reel forget it. You'll need to remove the blockage (as it will often stick to the blade) and try again. This can become unmanageable depending on your yard. I quickly lost patience trying to cut near an area that had mulch as it would lock up every few steps. I literally thought I had a defective unit at first as the pieces of mulch and twigs that would prevent the blades from spinning were so small many times that I didn't even notice them. You can probably minimize this issue by raking before mowing but that's something I never had to worry about with gas mowers. Another thing to consider is that after the grass gets past a certain length, this mower becomes ineffective as it relies on the grass being able to get caught between the blades as they are spinning. If the grass is too long, it will cause the grass or weeds to lay down and roll over them instead of cutting them. This appears to be a limitation of all hand reel mowers though and not just this particular one. Overall I'd say get this is perfect if you're looking for a cheap and small to cut a small lawn and don't have to cut around mulch or a tree that drops lots of twigs or anything denser than grass. If this isn't the case I'd probably recommend spending another $30+ and getting an electric or extra $100 to get a gasoline mower.

Let me start by saying I have wanted one of these manual mowers literally for YEARS. This summer brought my son and I the perfect excuse to buy one, as we picked up a couple yards to mow/maintain, and neither of the weed-eaters provided were either very reliable, or worked at all. Also, the yards are cut up into many different configurations, if that makes sense, and the large riding mowers provided were not capable of getting in close to the buildings or other ornamentation. Enter this excellent "old-fashioned" tool. I love being able to find tools like this that are well-made with attention to quality and last-ability, if I may coin a word. My kiddo is steeped in the electronic, tech age and to see the ingenuity and resourcefulness of times past really thrills him. Every time he uses it, he gets great exercise, learns attention to detail in the way he has to manipulate it to get every last blade of grass, and afterwards, he has such a sense of accomplishment! He repeatedly tells me, 'I am IN LOVE with this machine!' Also, I have to say, it handles longer weeds or overgrowth pretty darn well, with a bit of effort and elbow grease! Wouldn't recommend it for cutting that all the time, but in spurts it works really well on taller grass. Just be patient and go at it in sections and it will handle the cut quite well. Couldn't ask for better craftsmanship. Heavy and substantial materials that appear to be made to last. The cut is crisp, clean, and precise. The only thing I could wish was that the rollers were made of heavy duty rubber rather than thick plastic. I think they might hold up better over time that way. Love the adjustability of the height of the cut! A bit of work to rig it the first time, but super steady afterward. Also, putting it together wasn't too tough, but the little locks that hold the base of the handle to the actual machine were just adequate, however. I'm afraid they might wear down rather quicker than I'd like. Also, if I may be so bold as to suggest it, including four of them might be a great customer service perk. Just in case one gets bent or lost, or one wears out faster than the other. I don't really want to place an order for two measley locks, y'know what I'm sayin'? I suppose I could run to Home Depot or our local hardware store to get something I could rig to work, but including a couple sets would just be nicer all 'round. In conclusion, BUY THIS if you've been wanting/needing a really efficient, cost-effective, non-fossil-fuel, non-electric, well-built and sturdy mower for your yard. Do be very cautious about twigs and stones or rocks, though. You wouldn't want to muck up these blades, and if anything will do that, it would be those two things. But if you set your cutting height to the highest cut (which is really best for your grass), twigs, etc., aren't really much of an issue unless you never rake your grass or have a plethora of older trees that drop lots of stuff into your yard.

Not bad for what it is. Assembly was pretty easy and straight forward. The grips have a tendency to slide but that's not a big deal. It works best if your yard is level and doesn't have tall weeds. I couldn't use it properly in my back yard because it's not level and has lots of tall weeds but overall it's cool for smaller level yards
