McLane 17-Inch Reel Mower Grass Catcher For Push And Powered Models 17-C Review

McLane 17 inch Reel Mower Grass Catcher For Push And Powered Models 17-C

I had been looking for this type of grass catcher for quite some time and at the right price. Each time I found it, it was close to $100.00 and so I thought that I'd try second-hand stores and yard sales but never found any and plus, 17" grass catchers were tricky to find. I tried Ebay and still nothing. Finally, I found it on Amazon for half the price of local gardening stores. It was initially out of stock but Amazon informed me by email when they had it availiable. The catcher fits perfectly on my McLane lawnmower and does it's job of grass catching superbly. It seems very durable and I hope that it lasts for a long time. The shipping was very fast and I am very satisfied with my product and would recommend this item and my experience with Amazon to anyone. Thanks.

Earthwise Reel Mower - Frontgate Review

Earthwise Reel Mower - Frontgate
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Approximate dimensions: 22"W x 14"D x 51"H
Cutting swath: 16"

I, at 5'7" and 135 lbs, find it relatively easy to push this reel mower around on our small lawn. The handle is a good height for me. This mower is easier to push than other reel mowers I tried to push when they've been on display at the hardware store.

Previously we used a re-chargeable electric mower, which was heavier to push and used up more space in the garage. The main thing I've had to learn to remember now is that the reel mower only cuts on a forward stroke.

The ability to adjust the cutting height is a useful feature. Our mower is set to 2.5" because our grass fares better if it isn't cut too short. Mowing it once per week has been sufficient.

Assembly was straightforward.

I recently moved into a home with Bermuda grass and learned the best way to mow Bermuda is with a reel mower.I purchased this product from Amazon and since it arrived, nothing has gone right.First it was shipped with the wrong clutch cable. We called McLane and they acknowledged it had been shipped with the wrong cable (their excuse - new product - whoops!).A new cable arrived 8 days later, but once again, it was the wrong cable. So I basically started mowing my yard with the clutch cable self rigged to the mower.The initial cut was way too low.The maximum cutting height is 1.5 inches but what it doesn't say in the description (nor on the McLane website) is that it is advised to use a McLane dealer to adjust the mower to the highest level - very complicated!Furthermore, my yard is very hilly and the even cut that was promised by owning a reel mower simply doesn't exist.I'm very disappointed and feel I've been taken advantage of.I intend to try and get my money back.

Average Reviews:

I recently moved to a rental house from an apartment building.There was no sheltered outside space to store a gas mower, and after reading reviews on Amazon, I got this one.After mowing, I just carry it down to the basement.

Set up is a snap.It took me literally 5 minutes and then....thats it!Just mow!

If your grass is rather long, you will have to do it twice the first time to get everything.The cut is not a perfect uniform cut, as you would expect from a gas powered mower.When done, the lawn looks like it was mowed a couple days ago. As other reviewers said, you will have to do some trimming, as the mower leaves about a 2 inch gap between the wheel and the cutting reel.I picked up a little cordless electric trimmer for that duty.

Beware!If you do not want attention from your neighbors don't buy this mower!!!Within 2 times mowing, I had met most of my neighbors, and also figured out which ones were jerks and who the unruly kids in the area were.You will attract attention with your brand new"antique" mower.

Gardena 4024 15-Inch Silent Push Reel Lawn Mower With Folding Ergonomic Handle 380C Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This mower makes me wish I had a larger yard to mow more often. I'm outdoors, I can hear the birds, there is the smell of freshly cut grass but there is not the hammer of a small gasoline engine, the odor of hydrocarbon combustion nor the annoying trailing of a power cord. Mowing dry grass or even moist grass after a light morning shower here in the mountains of New Mexico becomes pleasant outdoor exercise approaching recreation.The folding handle is elegant but one must take care during assembly to understand how it works so that one does not damage it during assembly. There is ample instructional caution on this point. The carrying handle is comfortable and equally handy to carry this lightweight unit folded or unfolded.The folding handle itself doesn't help me with storage and I leave it locked in the unfolded position but if you have a vertically tighter space than I it could be ideal to reduce the height of the stored unit by half. Edging, mowing around sprinkler heads, and over irregular surfaces or buffalo grass hummocks will require repeated passes in more than one direction, other hand tools and patience to achieve a manicured appearance (but these limitations are not unique to this mower). My grass here in the arid West does not have the density I grew up with behind a gasoline mower in the humid South but I would love to try it back there. I think it would still prefer over a gasoline mower for a smooth lawn of less than half an acre frequently cut. I am raking the clippings and I do not know if a grass catcher is available. The blade clearance was perfectly adjusted out of the box cutting a piece of paper as described in the instructions as cleanly and effortlessly as a pair of scissors. Adjustment of cutting blade to blade and cutting height is easy without tools. This unit replaced a Sears Craftsman reel mower. It is half the weight, 3 times the cutting efficiency, much more easily stored, more rugged, far more precisely engineered and pleasant to use.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this mower when my last rechargeable battery-powered mower finally died. (The Earthwise.Horrible product).I decided it was time to try a different tactic and get a reel mower.

I bought this mower because it could leave the grass 4" deep.I keep my lawn at 3" so I have to water less frequently, and I wanted an inch of play in case I forgot a week.I also liked the guide wheels in front, and the solid look of the mower.

The mower was a pleasant surprise for two reasons:

1.It was EXACTLY as easy to push as the rechargeable mower.It turns out that the energy needed to spin the sharp blades is the same as the energy needed to shove a battery and electric motor around the yard.I had thought I'd get more exercise with a reel mower, but the exercise was the same.

2.The assembly instructions were THE BEST assembly instructions I've ever seen.As someone whose easily confused by the slightest ambiguity in instructions, I appreciated the ease of assembly.

I've been mowing more frequently lately, and have been willing to do it at 7AM because there's no motor sound to wake my family.The mower is fun to use and my lawn looks great.

American Lawn Mower 1415-16 16-Inch Hand Push Reel Mower Review

American Lawn Mower 1415-16 16 inch Hand Push Reel Mower
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've used one of these for about fifteen years,a slightly earlier model 1414-16.

It's been a very good mower.It is very easy to push, and cuts very nicely. Solid metal, yet deceptively light.Its pretty easy to maintain.Oil the bearings annually, and sharpen the blade every year or two.Once you've done it once, sharpening the blade takes about 30 minutes, a screwdriver and a wrench and some valve-lapping compound,and is pretty easy (about the same complexity as assembling a new kids bicycle), but is greasy.That's all you ever have to do.Fifteen years later mine cuts as well as the day I bought it.

I like to think I'm getting more exercise, but the truth is that because of its light weight and good cutting mechanism, its no more effort to push around than a gas mower (if you don't let your grass get too long......).

The only problem I've had is that you have to frequently tighten the nuts holding on the wheels.

If you haven't had a push mower before, a couple of caveats:It does cut more cleanly than a gas mower, but you do usually have to make two passes.Also, you have to keep current with mowing.If you let the grass get too long, you are REALLY going to sweat to cut your lawn the first time. Also, it really won't cut bermuda-type grass very well at all.

Gardena 4023 15 inch Silent Push Reel Lawn Mower 380
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am on my second season of owning this mower, and I still love it.Pros:lightweight, easy to maneuver, extremely quiet, sharp blade, blade stays sharp for years, low maintenance, unique color.Even my arm-strength lacking mom happily uses this mower (and she hadn't mowed a day in her life until now).There are a few cons to this mower, BUT that is to be expected from a reel mower, since they do have limitations.So, for those who have never used one:if your yard is very large- this may not be ideal, as it is more time consuming.If you tend to let your yard get overly long, this may not be a mower for you - while it can and does cut taller grass, it sometimes requires going over it twice - and it simply cuts, does not mulch.If you allow weeds to get out of control, keep in mind that this mower isn't fond of dandelions.You'll have to take a few swipes over them as well.You must also make sure to pick up sticks prior to mowing, or they'll get stuck in the blades.

So, if you maintain your yard fairly well, this is an AWESOME mower!I love being able to go out and mow while still hearing the birds chirp.When I'm finished, I'm NOT covered in green residue, smelling like gas and ready for a shower- I simply feel as though I've had some light exercise.I researched long and hard before buying a reel mower- this is along the lines of the Brill mowers in my opinion.Top of the line, and doesn't require annual sharpening as do many of the less expensive models.

Easy to store, as the handle can easily be disassembled.

I just purchased this McLane 21" mower from Amazon.com. It is my second McLane 21" rotary mower. The first one was purchased over 12 years ago and it is still running! I could not pass up the deal Amazon had on this mower and decided to buy a new one. If you are in the market for a new mower, you will not be disappointed with this one. It is built way better than any Sears, Toro or Yard Machine out there in the same price range.

***Important Note: Make sure your mower has the "mulching kit" installed on it. Mine arrived and was missing the door that covers the grass shoot. It was also missing the spring and the arm setup that hold the door when you use the bagger. If I had not known these parts were included, I may have missed that they had not installed them. If you are missing these parts, contact McLane ASAP. They sent me the parts and I had them in a few days.

The only annoying thing is that if you are carrying the lawn mower for whatever reason, as in I have to lift it from my garage up my cement steps to my yard, the handle sometimes unlatches off the mower part. There should be a clip or something to keep the handle hooked on, but there isn't....

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.

Husqvarna 64 16-Inch Push Reel Lawn Mower Review

Husqvarna 64 16 inch Push Reel Lawn Mower
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I can remember mowing the lawn with a push reel mower when I was young. They were heavy and somewhat difficult to push. This Husqvarna 64 mower is the exact opposite: lightweight and easy to push even in 6" tall grass. Our yard is smooth with no rocks or stumps so the Husqvarna 64 mower is a perfect match. It took me less than 10 minutes to assemble the handle and attach it to the blade/reel/wheel assembly. The mower itself is lightweight so lifting it and moving it around it very easy.

The little amount of effort to mow with the Husqvarna 64 truly surprised me. It is easier to push than a conventional mower with no power to the wheels. I actually think I mowed the lawn faster with the Husqvarna 64 than I would with a gas mower because the Husqvarna 64 is so light and easy to maneuver. My wife says that she wouldn't mind using it because it is so easy to push.

Finally the best part was that I could mow the lawn quietly and use no fuel or oil. It is nice to know that a person can put this mower away for 6 months and it will be instantly ready to run. It would be a perfect match for vacation homes, apartments, small houses, or areas where noise is a concern. Only a tiny bit of oil is necessary after using the Husqvarna 64 for an entire season. All in all a perfect purchase!

Brill 78371 Razorcut 38 15 inch 5-Blade Push Reel Lawn Mower
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Pros:
No more lawnmower fumes and heat in my face.
Cutting my lawn is now very quiet.
My hands are no longer tingle from the vibrations coming from my old gas powered push mower.
Sturdy handle design.This is very important.
Very easy to assemble and use.
Very small footprint, easy to store.
Virtually maintenence free.

Cons:
This mower DOES NOT like tall thick grass.You'll really have to push hard to get it to go through thick grass and will probalby have to go over what you just cut a second time to make the lawn look manicured.
If you fertilize your lawn you'll need to cut it about every other day.Like I said this mower does not like tall thick grass.
If you have any large mature trees in your yard this mower is not for you.You'll spend too much time picking up very small twigs that otherwise will get caught in the mower blades and bring you to a sudden stop.
Little bumps in the lawn have a tendancy to bring the mower to a stop.
Brill could have made cutting high grass easier if this mower was capable of cutting at a higher leangth then what is available.

Other observations:
The size of your lawn doesn't matter as long as it is fairly smooth and not too hilly.
Don't throw away the little metallic strip that comes with the mower. This is your blade gauge and will cost you $10 to replace.
Overall if your in good shape and have patience with this mower you should be okay.The most improtant suggestion I would make is that you hold on to your gas mower to keep your grass under control when rain prevents cutting, otherwise you'll be in for a shoving match with this mower.

I stink at sharpening my lawn mower blades using either a grinder or the Dremel lawn mower blade accessory (don't waste your money on that one). My grandfather used to get the blades so sharp, they'd cut paper, but i just can't do it right. So I saw this item at Home Depot, thought I'd give it a try. I works pretty good. I was very pleased. The company makes a larger version, which I am going to buy too. I recommend this product. I mowed the lawn after using it today and definately noticed that the blade had been sharpened.
