Great States 705-16 16-Inch Specialty Push Reel Lawn Mower For Low Growing Creeping Grasses With T-Style Handle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this mower from a local retailer to cut my bermuda grass lawn. I don't want to have to break out the big mower anytime the grass needed mowing, and my neighbors like to play in the pools and have barbecues a lot, so I needed something quieter that I could use even in the early hours of the morning.

I think this mower is a little more difficult to push than a regular gas or electric mower, but not much. The main problems with a mower like this are:

1. It doesn't work well when the grass has grown tall. You'll need to mow more often. In return, you'll have a nice, green lawn.

2. Sometimes you have to go over the same patch of grass twice to get it all. I think this is pretty standard for manual reel mowers, but nevertheless this is why I'm giving it only 4 stars out of 5.

3. It doesn't get the edges very well. You'll need a weed trimmer more than you would have otherwise. But I use one even with my regular mower, so it doesn't matter to me.

Contrary to what some sources say, manual reel mowers are fine for dense grasses like bermuda, provided you get the right type. The 7-bladed reel mowers like this one are designed for bermuda and other "bent" grasses.
