Do you have a "reel" lawnmower? Do you like it? Only fuel is yours, right?

Question

This thing is great except you can't mow backwards. But it is easy to push and it weighs a lot less than a gas mower. I have a hill and I can easily pick up this mower and walk it up a bank and set it down and mow that hill and bring it back down to put in my shed. It is great!

Answer 1

Yes I have it.In India this is most common and gas mower is rare.It is a good exercise and also the effect is neater, as you can move it to the corners at your will.

Answer 2

Careful there Speed Racer. Don't forget when you cut grass it becomes slippery. With those spinning blades I'd hate to have you slip and get hurt!

Answer 3

I bought mine four years ago when reel mowers were still hard to find.  I wanted a mower that was quiet and easy to use.  Our backyard is only half an acre and thus don't need a large engine mower.

I bought mine for $79 at ACE Hardware.  Now the mowers sell for twice that.

I really like my mower.  I can mow the yard in a few minutes and can carry it lightly over the hard corners.
