 Rating:  - Useless with bermuda grassI have a small bermuda lawn in Arizona, about 900 square ft, so I thought a cheap reel mower would be the best choice. I couldn't have been more wrong. When this mower didn't skip over the top of my lawn, cutting nothing, it would bog down with the blades locking up on the thick bermuda grass. The problem seems to be both the light weight of the mower not letting it push down into thick grass, and the roller bar on the back of the mower. The roller bar is what adjusts the cutting height of this mower ... Read More Rating:  - SFABI have been using a reel mower for six years. Five years with an expensive Brill model and the past year with the less expensive Scotts 16 Inch Elite. I am past getting excited about the experience of a new mower or a new reel mower. I wanted a machine that was a good value and worked. The past season the Scotts did the job and yes you will get exercise, get to talk to neighbors and be able to mow your yard twice to get a decent cut. The Scotts is an excellent value (at least ... Read More Rating:  - Scotts Elite -- A Detailed Comparison Parts I and IIPart I I have been intrigued by reel mowers ever since I noticed Wally and Beaver using one on Leave It to Beaver re-runs. It was my job to mow the lawn growing up and the Cleavers always made lawn care look a lot more fun than it was for me pushing around a heavy gasoline-powered mower.

Well - 2 of the 3 yes - but the main purpose of cutting a lawn it does not do well. If you have grass that is patchy (like our back yard) then you cannot tell if it has mowed the grass at all. If you have long weeds, the mower will go right over top of them and they pop right back up! Isn't a lawnmower supposed to cut those? The only area where we have had success with ... Read More Rating: - Poor Outsourced ImportThe Scotts Elite reel lawn mower is the same Great States lawn mower that I have used for the last 20 years with one exception, it was outsourced. Within two months both reel drive pinions had broken. I replaced them with a 20 year old pinions from a previous mower. The Gears were machined with less material and the hardness of the plastic was not the same as produced 20 years ago. I usually get five years out of a mower before the corrosion and rust make it easier to buy a new model. I have never seen this ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
