  • Very pleased with this mower! Great quality! Bought an extra!
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
Awesome lawn mower! I am thrilled to go back to basics and get rid of the loud gas mower that is hard to start! This one runs on my calories, no pollution, and is nice and quiet, meaning I can mow any time without worrying about making much noise early or late. It is also much easier to move around from front yard to back yard. One time I even carried it through my house for a shortcut! Ha! Yes, it has a hard time cutting tall grass but I find that going more slowly, and maybe doing half the blade part on the tall grass and half on the cut grass makes it more doable. Also change the blade setting to higher if needed. It is not a heavy mower but in thick grass going uphill it is a little bit of an effort. It also does not like any form of twigs or clusters of thick grass, and you may want to use an edger or weedwacker, too, if you want a crisper edge. I have a small handheld electric trimmer I use for edges. My lawns look so good now, and it will be easier to mow next time as long as I don't let the grass grow too tall again. Assembly of the mower was a little confusing. I could not tell if the handle part was to slant down or up. Dah, it goes up! Drawing in manual was not good. Also, put the lower part of the handle on the wheel part first! Instructions say to do it last. It was still not easy, but it would have been harder if the rest of the handle was attached to that wheel part. The tricky thing is to get the bottom part of the handle squeezed into place between the wheels. I have arthritis and it was hard to use enough strength to squeeze it so it would snap into place on the metal peg. I found that putting the wheel part on its side made it easier, so I could just push it into place, what was now at the top when the thing was on its side, so do the lower part first when it is on its side. No screws required there. A few other screws to secure the handle parts, but that was easy. I am super pleased with this mower. It reminds me of my dad mowing with a manual mower like this back in the 70s. Yeah, maybe a little harder but it has so many advantages, too. Sometimes we need to go back to basics. Big, loud, heavy, polluting lawnmowers are gross when you think about it. I see more and more neighbors using these old school mowers. Love it. And you can buy a blade sharpener for this mower, which I plan to do, so we can use it for a loooong time. I think it will last. Great quality. Just avoid running the blades into rocks and branches too much. It may dull the blades and makes it hard to push through. UPDATE: I love this mower so much that I bought a second one! I will keep the second one on another part of my property so I don’t have to move them around too much. But they are lightweight enough to carry if you need to. Keeping them closer by near where they will be used will probably encourage me to mow more, which means my lawns will look neater. Don’t hesitate. Get this mower! And I am not getting paid to say this, lol! I am just a housewife and a mother on a mission to make my lawns look better, and now they do! Trying to keep up with all my neighbors’ beautiful lawns without hiring a gardener! This mower is for sure a good investment! ... show more

  • Great mower. Cuts well.
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
I purchased several of these push mowers over the years. All have been good, but this one is great. Cuts everything grass, weeds , etc, all in one pass. The lawn looks like a golf course. A little noisy but easy to push. Very satisfied with this push mower.

  • Cuts well, good workout
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
Our battery mower died last month. I was debating dropping $500 for a new gas or electric and I just couldn’t justify that cost for something that in today’s junk might last 4-5 years. Read all the reel mower reviews, watched videos, blah, blah, blah, settled on the 18” Great States reel mower. Since my electric died a month ago, the Kentucky bluegrass in my small 400sqft courtyard was about 7” tall and very thick. Challenge: accepted. I mowed early to take advantage of the low sun angle and low temps. Hopefully the photos illustrate the before/after as I made passes, and the clumps I hit with the string trimmer (around the tree) that the mower couldn’t get. Shipping: no issues, arrived in 3 days on time. Assembly: 10 minutes. If you’re not strong, get some help on the final step where you connect the handle to the mower. It helps to stand it on its side and pull down. Pros of this specific mower: - Makes a nice even cut. - Relatively simple height adjustment - Rolls smoothly in thick grass - Heavy enough to stay planted on the ground, light enough to carry with one hand using the center crossbar. - hangs easily on the wall of my garage saving me 10 square feet of floor space (see photo) Cons of this specific mower: - I don’t know if the aluminum handle will hold up. It has some flex. The lighter material helps keep the weight down. Tradeoffs, I guess. Pros of reel mowers in general: - quiet - no trips to gas station - no heavy battery that eventually wears out and now what do you do with that battery? - less storage space - mulches well, doesn’t turn your grass into wet spinach/thatch that clogs things up Cons of reel mowers in general - It’s a workout. Like vacuuming a thick pile rug with the vacuum on bare-floor setting until you get the grass short enough to make steady passes. - If you’re OCD about bunches of grass sticking up after, you’ll be doing multiple passes (I cross cut my grass, so no biggie for me). - Twigs and landscape bark can briefly slow you down to remove them. I ran the leaf blower before to clear the debris and during to blow away some of the cut grass. First time used was today, but probably the hardest possible scenario: tall thick grass. Very pleased. When I got to the garage and hung it on a wall hook…tears of joy. I have 2.5 acres but this thing is so easy to use, I’ll be able to trim around the perimeter of the house and use it to knock down small patches of noxious weeds in summer without cranking up the tractor of using sprays.

  • Might be the best mower out there for the price!
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
Got it today, put it together and was out mowing within 15 minutes. Very happy with it. Takes less force than I expected to work, though it does jamb up on thick grass, crabgrass, and uneven grounds, but overall did quite nicely. I have a lot of ground to mow, but the area immediately behind the house is kind of a pain for the bigger Gravely and Yazoo mowers used on the rest. Push mowers are a pain to deal with because they inevitably die after just a season or two. I've never used a reel mower before, but always wanted to try one. Glad I did. Mowed the entire space in about an hour. While it doesn't handle tall grass well, and warns in the manual not to cut grass by more than 3/4 it's length, I went ahead and tried on a stand of thick grass that was left by the previous mowing. You can see the picture for the results. I had to run over the line about 6 times, switching directions, stopping and starting several times each pass to get the grass into the rake to cut it, but this took me maybe 3 minutes to cut. Quite impressive to me, for a mower that "cannot cut thick or deep grass". A trick I figured out is to turn the mower a little from side to side to get some of the more stubborn tall stalks. The rake lays them flat and never pulls them up into the blade, so the trick is to slowly roll over the troublemaker, then twist the mower some to get it up into the rake, then it cuts great. Do need to watch for weeds tangling around the left axle. Don't know why only that one, but I had to stop about half a dozen times to clear a buildup of grass wrapping around it. This shouldn't be a problem with lower-cut grass, though. Overall, very happy with it. I'll come back to update this as I get more time on it in the coming months. ... show more

  • Classic yard cut, I’m a big fan of this now
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
I’m happy with the results. It does take effort to push over thicker spots of grass. It does not get the weeds but i just go back with my weed eater. I like the matted finish when I'm done. My yard does have a golf course texture after using this. It’s not noisy so i can start cutting anytime i want. The next cut will be easier and I’ll probably do this weekly. Nice work out too! ... show more

  • Adjusted great!
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
Works fine! I reverse lapped to get the weed mix cut cleaner. Tightened back to a slight tension for tight cut. It came with a thick red grease in gear and pawel area, and on wheel gear. But none on wheel axel. I added lith grease to axel and a spray lith to bearings. Now it flows smooth enough for 74 yr. Old wife to use round about her garden! I mowed easily around large yard. Not cutting 6 inch plantain stems so well, but still just buzzing along. I can trim under truck n trailer field parking areas now. Rider 42 inch johndeere was way to big n clumsy to get close to corners. Reel mower18 inch can chomp away at tall, thick grasses. Not for sticks tho, just use foot to reverse blades to free up wood. Lol.Too much fun for old couple. Like the good old days singing accross the yard! I red taped flat bar to mark 2 inch overlap for old eyes. Flip handle over to push around without turning blades for easy jogging to lawn! Fun! ... show more

I was shopping for a lawn mower but didn’t want to pay a lot so I chose this one . It’s absolutely fun and addictive to use!! I love it ! No worries on gas or oil or having to crank it ! My only problem is the blades are getting dull already and leaves a lot of single strands of grass sticking up all over my yard which I have to repeatedly go back over . Blades need to be sharper as I haven’t even barely had it a month ... show more

  • If you want a push reel mower, this is an excellent choice
Size: 18-Inch, 5-Blade
We have a lot of lawn to mow, but are not fussy about it being mowed every week or "perfectly". Use the gas mower for some of the big areas, but wanted to try and become more environmentally friendly and LESS NOISY! First, the assembly. Let me say that even tho' I am a 61 year old female, I am VERY handy. I gave 3 stars to ease of assembly. This is the biggest negative about the mower. I am not saying it is difficult exactly, just annoying at times. One good tip I got from reading the reviews was this: ASSEMBLY is a bit of a.....pain. There are 3 bits: the handle, the middle, and the reel. The handle assembles easily. You will have issues if you follow the instructions by attaching that to the middle part and then putting the entire assembly on the reel. The trick is to attach the middle part to the reel as you will have to push on it (compress it) to get it on the posts. That will be impossible if you've fully assembled the handle as it doesn't flex to fit. Once it's on the reel, bolt the handle to the middle bit. THAT reviewer knew what they were talking about! ALSO, regarding assembly I agree with this reviewer: BUILD quality seem acceptable for a 100 dollar piece of equipment. However, it's engineered terribly. They basically send you two left sides to a handle. And this is actually an issue if you want to fasten the wing nuts/bolt in the same direction on both sides of the handle. Because the left handle is basically the right handle upside down, the bolt no longer fits inside of a dimple in the handle frame. So you're left with two choices: bolting one bolt and wing nut upside down and one right side up, or muscling one of the wing nuts so hard that you make your own dimple in the frame. THIS IS TRUE! I did the former. I also found that altho' it is true that ideally one doesn't want to set the reel too low and cut too much height off the grass at any one time, the mower works WAY better if you adjust the blades close to ground. I have not found that doing so causes the usual problem of grass too short and "burning". Oh, the method for adjust reel / blades is just awkward. But, not too hard. Regarding trying to cut longer grass. I have found that the blades are so sharp that even letting the grass get rather long (say 6-7 inches!) is perfectly fine. It is true that it does a much better job on soft grass. If you have a lot of "straw", you will get frustrated; it will not cut this sort of grass. People commented that it is better to walk fast and get the reel turning faster...yes, definitely makes cutting easier. Sometimes you benefit by giving a spot a second swipe. I think no matter the type of mower that overlapping your "lanes" of mowing and essentially double mowing is beneficial. I don't know why, but I like the "cut' produced by this mower much better than the gas mower. It is much greener and thicker looking. If you want a reel type mower, this one is highly recommended. Oh, yes it only goes forward. Not really an issue. Sticks? Well, if they are small and flat on ground, not an issue. If one gets in the blades...it stops SUDDENLY. Just pick the stick out. Hardly an issue for me; most small twigs get mowed right over. Lastly, the best thing is you can quickly grab it, no gassing up, do a small area only if need be...sometimes there are patches that grew faster than the rest. I am glad I bought it. Get the wider one for a few more dollars. ... show more
