Excellent product for a buyer who cares about health environment. Cuts well. Quiet. Very solid construction. I am very happy with this mower and certainly recommend it for like minded families.

I bought this mower to try to reduce costs, and gas oil as a child I remember using one and I was pleasantly surprised by the robust construction and ease of use. Cuts like butter, we have a lawn of Bermuda grass. I will never go back to petrol cutters.

I just received it yesterday and put together this morning, it took about 10 min. and set the blades to have fewer contacts, such as painting the blades need to where it was. The cutter is well done and very large pieces and much smaller than my power mower. I cut my yard two weeks ago with my power mower and the Bermuda Grass and a hybrid mix that Turner brown and look very poor.

The only thing that I changes is the bottom of the handle of the cutter before putting together, as it is easier to obtain in that way and oil the machine before first use. Well, my first use, I cut my garden in about 20 min. and it was easier than it was in 3 years the mower is very easy to push and does a great job cutting the grass. I just do not know what took me so long to find one, do not want to go back to my power mower! I recommend to everyone, is a fantastic mower.

I have a grass bent that this mower was designed to cut. Bent grass is used on golf courses in the North because it can be cut very low and fill to form a carpet like surface. Can not be mow with a rotating mower. I had a bent mower for 20 years. I used this mower for an entire growing season and exceeded my expectations for the very low price. I am able to take it down to 1/2 inch where bent grass thrives. By taking bent grass to that level you get a much thicker lawn. The extra blades in this mower cut the lawn more cleanly although I usually cut it twice at a 90 deg angle. My lawn looks like a golf tee at a really expensive country club. A couple of notes. This mower is not designed to take 2 inches off your lawn because you only mow twice a month. It will does not handle rough surfaces very well. By the way, pushing a lown mower like this is the fastest way to cut a small lawn. Children can easily push this mower until you let the grass grow too high. I cut the early morning, late at night without disturbing anyone. Small Push Mowers - is the only way to go.

Good mower, but as another reviewer commented, it is not good, with high grass. Otherwise, it is easy to assemble, easy to maintain, robust and reliable. Just get a string trimmer for all the blades of grass.
