The Great States 14-inch deluxe hand-reel mower provides a clean, precise, scissor-like cut for most turf grasses -- especially for cool-season grasses such as bluegrass, fescue and rye. With a cutting width of 14 inches and a a cutting height of 1/2- to 1-1/2 inches, the mower has 8-1/2-inch diameter high impact, polymer wheels with integral molded tread. It includes a three-spider one-blade reel, an alloy steel reel, a bed knife blade, and an adjustable, three-section roller. The zinc-plated handle has plastic grips for greater comfort. Assembly is required for this unit. To assure a precise, fine cut, each American/Great States feel mower must pass inspection by cutting paper 1/3000-inch thick -- much thinner than a blade of grass. The mower weighs 19 pounds and comes with a limited 90-day warranty.
When it comes to hand-pushed reel mowers, what you want is low cost and high efficiency. That's what you get with the Great States push reel lawn mower. Though they call it their "Deluxe Hand Reel Mower," there's not much that's deluxe about it, but its simplicity is one of its nice features. When you're pushing a hand mower, fancy attachments are not what you're really after. Strength and easy maneuverability are more important, and the simplicity of the hand reel mower design, with its three height adjustment settings, allows you to do the job and get on with your weekend. The alloy steel reel and bed knife blades are sharp and strong, and, though the mower is light enough to carry, it's got enough heft for proper traction on slick grass. Assembly is easy enough--it doesn't take more than 10 minutes--and there's a limited 90-day warranty.

steady little workhorse:
I was warned by several friends about buying a hand mower - mainly that it would be too hard to push - but that's not the case. More expensive than I would have thought, but definitely worth it - a good, steady little machine that will probably last forever. You have to put the handle together when it comes out of the box, but this was relatively easy even for me. The blades are sharp, the mower is easy to push, and I'm actually enjoying mowing the lawn. The only down side was a tiny metal thing that's... more info
I't ok:
for the money it's ok it does cut well except for dandelions just rolls over them the only real problem is the handle is to short and the handle grips wore through to metel the second time i used it. I will get new grips for it. but all in all it is ok for what i use it for.
Great mower:
Although small, this is a great mower. I got the mower for several reasons, the exercise, the environment, and the way a reel mower makes bermuda grass look. Over the last several years, I have changed my lawncare practices to be more environmentally friendly. I am using organic fertilizer this year and in combination with this mower, my yard looks great. It is easy to push, it goes around corners easily and overall does an excellent job. As I said, my yard is bermuda. Bermuda grass is tough and grows fast.... more info
Great Little Mower!!!:
I just bought this mower to replace a small electric mower. It was easy to assemble except for getting the ends of the handle into the slots on the mower. This job needed another person to hold the mower. It took about 20 min to assemble. I tried it on my 400 square foot hilly lawn and it did a beautiful job. Normally it takes about 50 min to mow the lawn with the electric mower because I had to watch for the electric cord in order not to run over it. I also had plug in the lawnmower to extension cords and... more info
