Scotts Outdoor Power Tools 2000-20S 20-Inch 5-Blade Classic Push Reel Lawn Mower, Green

I honestly love this mower! It has worked perfectly so far, and is much easier to push than I expected it would be. I had gotten used to pushing my old 1960s reel mower, but didn't realize how dysfunctional it was until I started using this brand new Scotts mower. It's so convenient not having to use any gas or charge up a battery, I just take it out and start mowing! After I'm done mowing I use a hose to clean it off, and then a leaf blower to dry it, then I spray WD40 on the blades, and it's ready to go for next time. Was easy to assemble right out of the box too. I read another reviewer who said after a few years the handles broke, so I have been taking extra care to pull it backwards every time I turn it, and only push it forward in a straight line so as to not put any sideways tension on the handle, and I imagine that will make it last longer. I read in the user manual that you can order replacement parts directly from Scotts as well, and for the first 3 years it's covered under warranty in case any parts break. Overall, definitely worth the money, and has done everything I expected it to! If you don't mind a little bit of a workout, it's a fun and effective way to mow the lawn!

This is the Porsche of reel mowers: easy to push, lightweight, easy to sharpen (with an auxiliary sharpening kit, $25.00), well-engineered and nicely painted. It can be set to five different cutting levels in three ranges, moving from very low (1") to high (2.5"). Out of the box it comes adjusted to the highest range, but this can be changed to one of the two lower ranges fairly easily by removing the wheels. There are several youTube videos that explain how to do this. It is important to know that push mowers don't handle very long grass or weeds very well. On the other hand, they do a great job of manicuring lawns to a uniform height. Unlike power movers, they actually cut the leaves rather than ripping off the tops. And (of course) the Scott's 2000 is good on gas and good for the environment, and it's not going to wake up the baby.

It's exactly as expected... it can be used slowly or you can go fast if you want. It will stop (jam) with sticks, but just turn it to the side and shake and it falls out. It's great for maintaining... if your grass is too tall or has tall dandelions... it won't cut those, it just leaves them standing tall. Lol. Overall, it's what I wanted to just do a quick maintenance of the lawn... bigger job, I use my lawnmower or tractor. ;)

I honestly didn't really expect this to be up to the job I had in mind for it...but it has proved me completely wrong I'm happy to say! We have a croft (smallholding) that has no power and I'm rubbish at starting petrol mowers, but we needed a solution to keep the long, rough grass under control now that the growing season is under way. The width of this cutting blade seemed great, so for the price it had to be worth a try. It has done a fabulous job! I gave everything a first cut on the middle setting to clear tussocks, but subsequent cuts can now be on the lowest setting. Downhill, it's a breeze. Uphill requires a bit of a running start and some welly, but someone stronger than me, (a skinny 56 Yr old woman) might even manage a standing start! It's very sharp and I bought the blade sharpener too to keep it that way. I love it and can't recommend it highly enough. It doesn't cut the shortest I've ever seen but for my purposes that's ideal.
