You and me both! but unfortunately my lawn need to be more leveled. So for right now I will go back to regular mowing. Around fall time I should have my lawn leveled good enough to bring the reel mower back out. I can't wait thanks for viewing !!!
@@JohnDoe12515 in my opinion the catcher is a waste of time. It catch some of the clippings but most of the clippings goes in the front of the mower. And also when the catcher is off the mower performance is better. Thanks for watching!
thanks for the review. i think the blockage came from taking to much of a cut. the 1/3 rule(lol). it can throw smaller pieces farther. I am debating a reel mower so your review showed me some helpful things.
you are right. my grass was too tall. and also I need to do some lawn leveling in the fall.this mower don't perform well on uneven surface. I have a lot of work to do
I just bought a 16-inch Reel mower.Can’t understand the eighth page of the manual.”about Ensuring a clean cut “can’t understand where to insert the paper .Hope to see this testing process.Thank you!
Hello. Sorry for the late reply. I love the real mowers but unfortunately, I sold them because my lawn has too many humps and dips. And the reel mower couldn’t work at a great performance. I have been doing some lawn leveling and my front yard is getting better. But my backyard needs more leveling. Other than that the reel mower gives you a better and sharper cut.
Hey now from your video it looks like you have a small slope to cut. Was it fairly easy? This reel mower takes me back to my youth where we learned how to cut grass. Thank you for making this video I can't wait to unbox mine 😊👍
I love this reel mower!!the slope was good to cut, I sold mine because I have too many uneven areas in the yard. so this season and fall I will do some lawn leveling projects. I will get anther one in the future ,maybe next year!! the reel mower give a cleaner cut than the rotary mower. thanks for viewing!!!
Sorry, for the late reply, there is a Scotts Reel more that have a catcher. But it is sold on Amazon. The ones that are sold in Home Depot don't have a grass catcher unfortunately.
You are trying to cut too much grass at a time. Lift the cut so it only takes one quarter of an inch each time. Also, reel mowers work best when the grass in less than 1 inch tall.
I bought this! It was on sale on Amazon. 21% Discount. Coming in today. :) I'll update my post once I get it up and running.
Cool. I gave mine a break because my lawn have too many bumps. So I have to do some lawn leveling for better reel mowing.
Don’t let it fill up much. Also sweep 🧹 up falling weeds. Great Exercise!! 😂. You know you grass was high 😂
I will definitely bring the reels back out next year. I’m need to do some lawn leveling
And I will definitely make sure the grass is lower next time 😂
I love reel mowing. I don’t think I will ever go back to gas.
Good review!

Bro! Thanks for the review! You answered all my questions. I'm buying one tomorrow
How do you find the catcher? Does it collect all the clippings or you rake left overs after?

@@ALWAYSOCCUPIEDTV bought it today. Gets the job done well. Thanks again for your video!
Not sure if the earthwise one had a grass catcher, but that might be why this one's harder to push. It adds weight as you mow.
I think so too.

its a little tricky. I put the paper between the blade and I push the mower. its scary how sharp this machine is
Just wondering what are your 1st year views and results with the reel mower? Did you keep using it?
