Product Description Safe, lightweight and easy to push, this non-polluting Reel Lawn Mower is great for small lawns and hard-to-cut landscaping. The clean, even cut is better for your lawn because it doesn't rip or tear, leaving the grass blade sealed to better retain moisture. Use clippings as a fine mulch to fertilize your lawn, or add the optional Grass Catcher (sold separately) to collect the grass for your compost pile.

not bad October 9, 2009 dunkalicious 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I chose a push mower over an electric or gas mostly because of convenience and wanting to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Keeping gas in my garage, having to take a lawn mower in for maintenance, or running a cord from the inside of my house to the outside just don't appeal to me. I'd like my lawn and garden to be as sustainable as possible.
Because of the above, I really wanted to be able to give this mower a 5 star rating. But truth be told, after going over my lawn about 4 times with this (and in some areas even more), there are patches of grass in the middle of my yard resembling a bad mullet..I found myself using a rake to try to comb them up so I could shave them off with the mower, kind of like a clean up job after a bad shave... I don't think it's dull blades as the leaves on my lawn were chopped up pretty well. Maybe it's because I let the grass get too long before using this, so I will revisit this review after trying the mower on shorter grass. I was satisfied with how easy it was to push the mower, and putting it together was quite quick too...the handle is held together with just 3 bolts and hooking the handle onto the mower itself was a snap. And I didn't mind having to pick up twigs first but some people might.
Shaky Packaging/Great Mower September 29, 2009 Roger Jones (Texas) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The mower was double boxed, and a good thing, since half of the entire top was completely open and the 2nd box, containing the mower, had a large gouge. One long sheet of butcher type paper was the only protection. Amazingly, the mower parts were undamaged and it was a snap to put together. I have now tested it once, after applying WD40 to the blades, and it works like a dream for my small patio yard. I highly recommend but, guys, improve your shipping materials.
Reel Lawn Mower REAL easy September 22, 2009 M. Gregg (Gilbert, AZ) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
After comparing numerous models and sizes, I decided on this one because of the great deal I received on Amazon. Couldn't be happier with my purchase. It arrived in perfect condition. Assembly took about two minutes, very easy to put together. I used it that afternoon and it did a fantastic job on my lawn. I had to mow twice because the grass was very long, but it was so easy and it looks great! Now that I have been mowing regularly the lawn looks plush and beautiful. I would recommend this mower to anyone with a small lawn. No more gas cans, Yeah.
Very good push mower--so far September 18, 2009 The Woodlander (The Woodlands, Tx) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It's actually my husband who's been using it. He has used this lawn mower only three times since we bought it a few weeks ago and so far, it has performed as expected. The only reason he didn't rate it 5 stars is because it's a little heavy (for a small, retired man!). Otherwise, it's very good.
american reel mower 1414-16 heavy duty September 15, 2009 kyle375 (florida) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I BOUGHT THIS PARTICULAR REEL MOWER BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY MODEL OF ANY BRAND THAT COMES WITH ALL METAL GEARS THAT PROPEL THE BLADES. THE WAY THESE WORK IS THE INSIDE OF THE WHEEL HAS TEETH ON IT AND THOSE DRIVE A GEAR ATTACHED TO THE BLADE REEL. ON ALL OTHER MODELS AND BRANDS THOSE GEARS ARE PLASTIC NOW, AND IF YOU RUN OVER A TWIG OR PINECONE IT CAN STRIP THE PLASTIC GEARS. RUMOR HAS IT THAT THIS IS THE ONLY MODEL STILL MADE IN THE USA. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT ALTHOUGH I WANTED THE SCOTTS 20" BECAUSE IT HAS A WIDER CUT AND HIGHER SETTINGS FOR CUT HIEGHT BUT THE SCOTTS WAS ALL PLASTIC GEARS . THE FACT THAT IT DOESN'T COME IN 20" IS THE ONLY THING THAT I AM NOT HAPPY WITH. IT CUTS GREAT AND IS EASY TO PUSH EVEN THROUGH THICK AUGUSTINE OR BAHIA.
