It is capable of cutting bent grass such as Bermuda, Zoysia, Centipede, St. Augustine, and Seashore paspalum. From the Manufacturer The power source behind our mowers hasn't changed much in 100 years. It's still readily available on demand. You can still fuel it for the price of a banana and a glass of milk. It always works when you want it to, and it doesn't leave any residue for the environment to absorb other than a couple of foot prints in a perfectly cut lawn. People- the power behind our mowers in 1895, and the power behind them today. What has changed is the product available to the people. We've applied a century of technology to a good old fashioned idea: the reel lawn mower. Today's reel mowers are lightweight and easy to maneuver. They're ideal for today's smaller lawns, and today's hectic lifestyles. They're always ready when you're ready, and they're almost maintenance free with no spark plugs to foul or engines to clog up. They're good to the environment and they're good to the lawn, snipping the grass for a clean, precise cut. A cut that's helped us carve our niche as the nation's largest manufacturer of in-demand, on-demand reel mowers. We've spent 100 years of perfecting our reel mower designs, streamlining our production processes and searching for the best possible materials to build the best reel mowers possible. And we're proud of all that. But more important still, we've spent the last 100 years, and we'll spend the next 100 more, keeping America Green.

  • Great Little Reel Mower... especially for the Price!
Size: 16", 7-blade
I bought this to mow my new installed Bermuda turf... (It's hard to crank though... LOL!) it was extremely easy to assemble and the blades were sharp from the factory. I found it very addictive to mow with despite having an expensive Zero Turn mower and a new rotary mower. Obviously the noise level is much lower than a motorized mower and the gas savings are a plus. It is light weight which was perfect for my newly installed turf. I am mowing approximately 3200 sq ft around our house (I use my Zero Turn for the rest of my 3 acres). I have yet to have to sharpen the blades or to adjust the bed knife. IF it ever wears out, I would buy another one immediately!!! My wife is 5'2" and barely 100 lbs and she has NO PROBLEM mowing with it... it is easy to push. When I finish mowing, I WD-40 the bed knife and then run the blades over it by pulling it along my concrete drive to distribute the WD-40 on all the blades. Great mower for the price!!! ... show more

  • Reel Great Mower
Size: 16", 7-blade
Purchased this so the kids could mow a small section of the yard that's fenced off and I can't get the riding mower into. They love having a mower they can use themselves, and it does a great job cutting a variety of grasses (Bermuda, misc. local grasses, and even taller, thick St. Augustine) but it may take several passes in different directions for the most uniform final product. It is easy and smooth to push though, so that works out fine. Seems to stay sharp and when oiled regularly after use, and stays in great shape. The grass seems healthier and happier after being cut with this mower, and I love that the kids (11) can do it without my help. Great for use in a smaller space or yard - wouldn't want to cut a half-acre or more with it (at least not of our thick mix of grasses and weeds), but is fantastic for our lush extended chicken run. Would highly recommend for someone who wants a quiet, conventional mower that doesn't need fuel, will give you a healthier lawn, and will last a long time. ... show more

  • Reeeeely good mower for small lawns Reeeeely good mower for small lawns
Size: 16", 7-blade
I waited an entire season to review this reel mower. I used to mow grass for a living and I have cut a lot, A LOT of grass. But, I had never touched a reel mower. I have run some really nice mowers. Deere, Scag, Toro, all rotary mowers, but high end commercial equipment. My house has a small yard maybe 2000sqft. I saw some guys on the YouTube using reel mowers and I thought for the price of a manual push reel, why not give it a try? My yard is Bermuda grass that I would cut at 2” in the spring and 2.5” in the dead of summer 100degrees. So I chose the seven blade. Less dense turfs would need a 5 blade. First off, this mower is really light. Too light. I ended up pulling the rollers, filling with fine sand and sealing the ends. All in an attempt To keep the mower from bouncing around. I am contemplating steel rollers for next year. The mower came out of the box adjusted properly. I checked it but it was spot on even contact all the way across the knife. The other adjust Kent I made was to straighten the handle bars. They came at a weird inward angle that was just not comfortable. Put a pipe on the end of the bars and bent theM flat to 90. The other thing that needs to be done each time is just a little oil or grease across the knife edge. It quiets the operation. Using the reel mower has some reel advantages. (Sorry, has to do it.). The first, is that it is super light. My toro 21” commercial is self propelled but At 110 lbs, turning it around is a workout. This reel is nothing to push. Even in my really dense, healthy bermuda it is a dream to push. Second, there isn’t a bunch of dirt and glass flying around. Something to appreciate in the dry days of summer where a rotary mower creates a dust plume. Third, no gassing up, forgetting to buy gas and having to run and get it before you mow. Just grab the reel, shot some oil on it and mow. No pulling the cord, no adjust carbs, spark plugs filters....oil it and mow. Now, on to the cut. This is where the reel shines. A rotary mower spinning at 30000rpm, no matter how sharp, beats the lives ng heck out of grass. A real mower makes one nice scissor like snip and moves on. The greatest surprise of switches ng yo a reel mower has been the health of my turf. It is night and day. I kept the exact same feeding and weed prevention and my lawn went from a patchy weedy struggle to keep to looking like a fairway in one season. I dropped the height from 2-2 1/2 down to 1- 1-1/2” even in the dead of summer. I was blown away. The grass is just flat out healthier, stronger and able to choke out the weeds. A little push reel like this is big for everyone. But anyone who wants a to cut maintenance and improve the health of their lawn, switch to a reel mower. I can think of several improvements that would make this particular mower much better, but for the money, it’s a good little reel. Happy mowing! ... show more

  • Great for the price
Size: 16", 7-blade
This reel mower is able to take your grass down to a half an inch on the lowest setting. Very easy to assemble and use. Before use, be sure to pick up sticks and limbs because the smallest stick can get wedged between the blades and get hung up for a bit. This thing is so easy to push; I was able to push with one hand. I bought this so I could get my current grass as low as I could so I can reseed with new grass. The time it takes to mow the grass with this may take a few minutes longer than a gas push mower but it is worth it if want good manicured grass with nice lines. ... show more

  • Zero Quality Control Zero Quality Control
Size: 16", 7-blade
I'll start by saying that the mower works great, maneuvers easily, runs silently and is sharp enough to cut a piece of paper, there is a caveat though, it did not arrive like that. When the mower showed up the reel wasn't true, after making multiple adjustments over the course of an hour I found that the flat blade was catching 4 of the reels while 3 of them free spun. I then spent an additional 2 hours using abrasive compound to even the blades out. From the box, the reel mower was as loud as an electric mower because the reel would screech every rotation, terrible sound. There seems to be an absence of quality control with this brand because the left axel hub isn't pressed flush, I'll likely have to spend another 45 minutes pressing it in correctly. If they marketed this as an off brand mower it would certainly lessen the expectations, but they emphasize the 120 year history of the company & "American quality" which clearly hasn't carried over to the factory in China. If you're expecting a mower that is ready to go out of the box, this isn't the product for you, if you don't mind dropping 4 hours of work to get it to function as advertised, then this might be worth the $20 in savings versus the Scott's brand. Considering I had to shell out $20 to get this product running properly, it would make more sense to just buy a premium brand reel mower, which this is not. Buyer beware. ... show more

  • Quality Product
Size: 16", 7-blade
I am a seventy two year old man with a 2000 sq. ft. yard(not yet a lawn) that I am transitioning to bermuda grass. Previous owner sometime in past had installed bermuda, but lawn had not been maintained and yard consisted of various weeds and a few sprigs of bermuda here and there last year when we moved in. My goal is to have a carpet-like lawn so I am creating the best environment I can for bermuda which includes, among other things, keeping it at about one inch and mowing at least twice a week. After much research I decided on the Earthwise seven blade mower due to reviews stating the seven blade mowers are best for bermuda and provided the smoothest cut. If I was intending to cut a larger area with taller grass of other varieties I would probably have opted for the Fiskars Stay Sharp, but I felt the Earthwise was a better choice for my needs and it cost about $115 as opposed to $200 for the Fiskars. I used it for the first time yesterday and am very pleased. Having not used a mower of this type in about sixty years I was a little apprehensive. Also, I had read several negative comments such as hard to push, flimsy handle that flexes, handles not wide enough, foam cushions on handles not being sturdy enough, hard to maneuver, doesn’t cut close enough to edges, blades and rollers locking up, noisy, and being hard to adjust mowing height. I found the mower to be as easy to push as a non-self propelled power mower. The handle is sturdy with no flex. The handle grips are plenty wide enough as the mower is easy to turn and maneuver. the foam grips seem as sturdy as any other foam grip I have used. I’ve never had a mower that didn’t require edging with a weed eater and this one is no different. I mowed my yard twice yesterday, first at the factory setting and next at a lower setting and had no lockups of any kind. The noise is not offensive and what I expected – sort of a combination of metallic clicking of blades touching the cutting bar and ‘whooshing’ of spinning blades. As far as adjusting cutting height, it is not as easy as some mowers which only require moving a lever as the bolts on either side of the rollers must be removed and re-tightened. However, no tools are required as the nuts that have to be loosened are large plastic wing nuts that I could easily manipulate even though I have some arthritis in my hands. This is not an issue for me anyway as I will likely leave it at the same setting most the time. Sorry about the long review, but I want to be specific as to what I am using it for and why it works for me. Also, I bought a sharpening kit with the mower, but after reading the manual it said with normal use and maintenance the blade will not need to be sharpened for several years. At my age needing to sharpen might not be an issue. ... show more

  • Clean Affordable Quiet Cut Once You Set it up
Size: 16", 7-blade
The EW 1715-16EW - 7 reel, 15.5" length, 5" diameter reel, 0.5"-2.5" cut height, 21 5/8"lb, 9 7/8" wheels, handlebar width 14 1/4", 1 wheel rotation to 4.2 reel rotations, plastic gears is an affordable, relatively light weight, mower w/easy to maneuver on the fly rear rollers. If cutting longer grass it doesn't wrap clippings around the driveshaft at the wheels. Thanks to the foresight of 1" long collars around the driveshaft at each wheel. The mower comes w/front end at the lowest setting. Originally I jacked up the back roller setting, but the cut was still too low for my purpose. I pulled the wheels and changed their setting from the lowest adjustment to the highest. On the roller I used the plastic hole closest to the roller combined w/middle metal hole on the frame. That left my cut a mite under 1.5". The reel only being 5" OD affords little room for tall grass. Mine was noisy though once I loosened the blades off of the bedknife, still cutting newspaper at slowest hand turned reel speed, it continued to cut well though at great reduction of noisy metallic clatter. The field of reel mowers w/more than five blades is very limited. Others available tend to have rear wheels and weigh a lot more. Neither of which I consider an advantage. 5/22/23-ETA: After a year I'm till chuggin' along. My 'old' 16" reel is a Husqvarna 5-blade. I have it set at high to plow through the weeds for the first couple of cuts. As time goes on/heats up and the grass catches up w/weeds I pull out the Earthwise 7-blade. Really nice cut and reel mowers cut grass that grows vertically very well. I prefer the seven blade for a lower cut I do not have a manicured lawn plus I have a lot of hardwood trees front & back. I pick up little sticks all the time. When the reel stops due to snagging a little stick I place my shoe on the reel and pull it back to dislodge the stick. Then I tilt the mower on one wheel & ease up a mite to clear the obstruction. It's nice to cut in quiet. This year I pulled out the Husky and had forgotten that as the season went on last year I dropped the height to the bottom. I was chewing up weeds & leaves to beat the band. The next day my lower back, thighs & calves were sore pushing against the extra resistance. No biggie it was the first cut. The following day[second day from cut] my left knee tendon was so sore I couldn't hardly put any weight on it when walking. Luckily I had a rubber-tipped wooden cane handy. The next two weeks I spent a lot of time convalescing on the couch. Another two weeks after that before cutting grass/weed combo in moderation. If you're older I recommend starting at a higher height, especially early w/weeds prevalent and/or taller grass, then as the summer heats up/weeds die out lower to whatever level you desire. Because I'm not attempting to scalp my lawn I roll over a lot of sticks/what-not that helps keep obstructions to the minimum whilst extending the good edge on the blades. ... show more
