Andrea: Works great. Love it. Definitely recommend it.

Heather: I've used this several times over the summer. The only problem I have is not because of the mower, but because my yard is bumpy. It can get stuck on the bumps pretty easily. I still think it's great and would recommend it to anyone with a small yard. It's lightweight, was very easy to assemble and the blades are nice and sharp.

Noelle: I’m so happy I decided to buy this! It cuts amazing, easy to push and assembly wasn’t that hard. It is definitely my favourite purchase on Amazon so far! The bag is just an added bonus. One very happy customer!

Kindle Customer: For a reel mower I'm pleased with it. The only place it gets rough is on hills. I've used a reel mower in the past, I was of course much younger then lol. But aside from the small sticks which are easy to remove, it works great. The blades were good and sharp, the grass catcher catches much more than it looses and it was very easy to put together. I would definately buy it again.

Liz: It probably helps that I grew up with a push mower! We never had anything else, and it was our chore to mow the lawn.

But this one seems good. Blades are sharp, everything functions as expected!

It's a workout to use - like any push mower! The grass basket fills up fast, but you can push the grass to the back of the basket and fit more in that way. The mower is only 16 inches wide, which means the grass basket is similarly narrow. So overall, definitely on the smaller side.

It won't mow through everything. Thick sticks, etc - but this doesn't phase me, and it was always our chore to clean up all the sticks before we mowed as children too. I think that's just how push mowers are. (It will mow through small twigs.)

Our lawn is probably 5000 sq ft, and that is kind of pushing it for this mower, in terms of size. This push mower would probably be more appropriate for a more compact lawn.

However, it does get the job done! It seems to function very well. It just is a push mower, and it is relatively small.

MattG: I bought this mower for o be able to do only certain area that coule not be done properly with my ride on or even my gas push mower. Now this reel mower is not recommended to do large areas but it works great to do around trees and around my above ground pool. It’s best to do use if often as it doesn’t work that well on long grass. I use it a couple times a week in hard to reach places and it works lime a charm. I do the rest of my lawn every 10 days or so with a ride on. This sun joe mower works well and there is something oddly satisfying with the way the reel blades work. Very happy with my purchase.

English Teacher: Super easy assembly (no tools needed except hex wrench provided), except for the final adjustment. I missed the part that said “turn upside down". I recommend that you do this 1st (pages 8 & 9). It is only hard to push on uneven ground, but if your lawn is flat & even, you'll be fine. It would have been nice to have had some adjustment in the handle height as I am very tall, but it's OK. Much easier for me to push and use than "the beast" (a self-propelled regular lawn mower) that my husband used. It's much smaller and easier to store than the beast too and requires no gasoline -- good for the environment. Grass catcher easy to put on and take off. Because it is light weight it's a bit wimpy, but I'll take wimpy over the beast.

Shawn F.: I was not sure what to expect from this tool after the reviews. I used it to cut my grass, I chose not to put the clippings catcher on it. The grass shoots out the back and somewhat high. Pick up the sticks before you cut the lawn. They will jam up the wheel. The other issue I found was my "Zamboni" skills. As I tried to overlap a little bit from each pass. The blades do not go to the wheel, so I had lots of strips. It cut well other than that. After a month of use, the treds on the wheel keep coming off. The blades have dulled to the point that where my grass is thicker, the wheels stop moving.

I bought this in April 2019. Since then I have had a replacement sent twice. After the 2nd, they sent me a bigger one. Since then, that one has broken and they sent another replacement. The machines have not lasted a month before they break. I cannot get my money back because Amazon says it is too late and the company says they can only deal with warranty issues. At least at this rate, the 2 year warranty will never be an issue.
