    Wow! I stumbled upon this video titled "lawnmower" and I'm thrilled! As someone who has been searching high and low for a lawnmower that doesn't require perimeter wires, I am so grateful for this find. The Segway Navimow robotic lawnmower seems like the perfect solution. Its convenience and efficiency have won me over. I highly recommend giving it a try!

    With my gas mower, i hate mowing. With my $80 amazon reel mower, I mow everyday and love every second. I've got my St. Augustine trained down to 3/4in. It only took one summer. I look out now and I have a golf course as a lawn. No need to spend anymore than $80 and some elbow grease. I finally feel alive. Reel mowing literally saved my life.

    Pretty cool mower. In Ohio here no rain for some time now hopefully to get some this evening. Everyone in the neighborhood has cut their lawns short to kill them . Ours is still green sitting at 5 inches tall. Last time I cut was over a week ago and didn’t even drop the deck on the zero turn to try to save it. So far it’s working hope for this rain. 🙏

    Bought a reel mower about a month ago. I couldn’t stand it after the first mow. The second mow I liked it a bit more, but still think I hate it. Lol
    The biggest issue is it misses so many spots and you have to go over it several times.
    Here’s a tip if you do buy one; use some wd-40 on the blades.

    Hi Ryan! I have a question. How can I help my lawn bounce back from high traffic? I have fairway crested wheatgrass, and sandy soil. I live on an acreage where I have limited options to get my subcompact tractor to the backyard. Sandy soil, a type of grass that can't tolerate a lot of traffic, and limited options for routes isn't an ideal situation. Typically when I do have to drive the tractor on the lawn it is back and forth a couple times. I try not to drive the exact same path, sometimes I have to. If you have any tips I would greatly appreciate it! Your new property is looking amazing. I especially love Kelsey's butler's pantry!

  • @GK-ll7zo
    @GK-ll7zo 4 месяца назад

    I see the advantage.
    a reel mower does not have the suction, and by constantly rolling the grass flat, you need to monthly verticut (not scarify, but a gentle cut), to get the gras back growing up.
    So this is maybe not the crisp cutting, but it sucks the gras up, before cutting, so how does it score in general compared to a reel mower?
    We all know that you can't manage your grass with a reel mower alone, we always need to have some mower with suction and bagging from time to time
    So maybe my wife likes this as a total package

      Can you figure a way to add any more down force on the rollers? That would be about all you can do. Also if your grass is a couple different varieties of grass types or if it's not particularly thick it just won't stripe well.

      @jsee2385 Год назад +2

      @besttech oh ok. Yeah I've seen the bristle type of strippers. I tried that with a thick piece of berber carpet mounted on my mower so it was perpendicular to the turff dragging hard against ground...and it did nothing basically. About all you can do, again just try to make it push down harder so it really drags over and pushes the blade down so it can reflect/ shadow better. Then the bristles will just break down faster. Rollers are the way
