Title: Works well in small areas
Review: I purchased the 16-Inch 5-Blade Push Reel Lawn Mower for a small area near my driveway culvert that I couldn't get to with my riding mower and was too large of an area for a trimmer. It was easy to put together, is lightweight and easy to maneuver. It cut the grass evenly and worked on hilly terrain which was important. You may have to hit tall grass a few times occasionally but no issues.

Title: Perfect mower, versatile easy to use and easy to assemble and use
Review: If you're looking at a reel mower, you know you're looking at a certain level of dedication to your lawn.This is a manual mower, no gas, no oil, no batteries. But most importantly, nothing to break.Has a great cut and is as easy to push as a standard 20-21in rotary push mower.Once you understand how to turn the 180 degree corners for your next pass while keeping the blades spinning. You'll be off to the races

Title: Effective American Lawn Mower
Review: This American Lawn Mower performs well, efficiently cutting grass even in short distances due to its high blade rotation speed. For longer grass, especially over 10 inches, occasional passes may be needed, but after a couple of back-and-forths, most tall grass is successfully cut. Compared to gas engine mowers, it produces less noise, doesn't emit exhaust gases, and eliminates the need for an electric cord. It seems like mowing the lawn might become a future hobby. The Grass Catcher captures around 60%-70% of the grass, and while occasionally detaching during use, some improvements in this area would make it even better. The assembly was not too challenging, but clearer instructions, especially regarding where to attach the handle to the mower body, would be beneficial. Overall, a satisfactory product, and I'll provide updates if any issues arise during use.

Title: A Reel Mower
Review: Definitely cuts the lawn, I think, superior to many gas and electric powered mowers. It does require some strength and endurance, which is great for the health of this old gieser. You will need to mow it, having the blades cut it twice, which I expect to be the case for reel mowers. It would be best to have a flat ground. I have a lot of small erosion gullies, and mole tunnels on our ground, which do increase the time involved, and the speed that I can go. The mower does great. I cut it low, looks good. I’ve been using a reel mower for a long time. Does not require gas, does not require electricity, but does require manpower. Fantastic. I couldn’t get the leaf catcher to work, not having the speed to throw the grass and leaves into it, and I did have trouble keeping it on the mower. The mower is great.

Title: Not hard to operate
Review: Wasn't too bad putting the handle together although I found the small metal clips impossible to get over the bolts where the handle attaches so I had to let that go and take my chances. Not too heavy to move around and my 7-blade cutter works pretty well. I don't put the clippings catcher on it, seems like it would be in my way and I'm pushing and turning it around faster without it. I let the clippings fall back into the lawn and they seem to just dry up and disappear. First time with a mower like this but I like it for ease of use and easy storage.

Title: Not at all sharp.
Review: We only have a small patch of grass in our front yard so I thought it would be economical and environmental to buy one. Though it’s convenient, quiet, easy to store, it, however, isn’t sharp enough to cut through the dandelion weeds that have tall thick stems. I had to use scissors to trim them afterwards. I’m somewhat disappointed to be honest.

Title: This thing is fun!
Review: I bought this manual reel mower b/c I watch a lot of YouTubers reel mowing their lawns these days, and I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Also, I was interested in mowing my lawn twice a week (preferably early in the morning so as not to wake my kids and neighbors). Not only is this thing quiet, but I can get my 4,300 sqft Bermuda lawn done in about 20 minutes, pushing at a normal walking pace. As others have said, quiet doesn't mean you can't hear it; there is a whirring sound (this is really hard to explain exactly), but I promise my neighbors would see me before they hear me, and people inside my house can't hear me for sure. Trust me, it is definitely quieter than my neighbor's electric mower two doors down. The mower is really easy to maneuver and even my wife said it was easy to push & she liked it after I initially assembled it. I don't have play money to buy another manual one, but I'd be interested to see the difference between this 5-blade and a 7-blade (I bet it's minimal) but for the price and the cut, you can't go wrong here. Assuming you give proper overlap, I haven't noticed many missed grass blades and I have no issues pushing it around. Per others' comments, I haven't really experienced the mower getting stuck on sticks or other things in the yard (and I definitely wouldn't go clean it up beforehand as others have suggested). I would buy this again for the cut quality, easy of use, quiet operation and most importantly price. Oh, and did I mention it gets kind of addicting to use? 5 stars!

Title: Crummy product
Review: This mower is very disappointing. It jumps up and down as you are pushing it. This creates a very bumpy uneven cut. You have to go back over almost everything you just cut. I thought it was me and that I was doing something wrong but I had my adult son cut the grass and he got the same results. My neighbor bought one about half the price of mine and it cuts noticeably better than this one. I tried his and it pushed smoother and is easier to use. This is a very disappointing product.

Review: It's a dream to cut with this mower

Review: Bought this mower 2 months ago. I've been using it weekly since on the front and backyard lawn.It cuts easily through the grass. My lawn was somewhat overgrown the first time (about 4 inches of grass), and that took a few times through the same spot to get it cut evenly down to the length i wanted. The mower is easy to use, easy to clean, and makes mowing fun. Unfortunately, one of the plastic cover for the screw that holds the roller assembly broke a few weeks in which is why I'm rating this a 3-star. Otherwise a great tool for the lawn.

Review: C'est surprenant ! Mon fils de 8 ans a fait le gazon, ca coupe très bien , se manoeuvre facilement et ca prend peu d'espace de rangement. Par contre sur un gazon très long c’est difficile, il faut repasser souvent mais si on entretien chaque semaine c'est juste parfait. Je ne regrette aucunement mon achat!

Review: It was easy to assemble and and easy to use equipment. It is not exactly light weight so will be a good workout. I don't have a massive lawn so this is fine for me. It also cuts reasonably well, though like what some others have experienced it tends to push grass and weeds down at times instead of cutting it, at times.
