LawnMaster LMRM1801 Push Reel Lawn Mower 18-Inch 5-Blade

Quick delivery, very easy assembly, great price.This Rotary Mower is perfect for my postage size lawn. After CAREFUL READING of the Instructions , I set the height of the mower on the highest setting. Then lowered the height by one setting and made a second mow. After one day I repeated this process. My Bermuda grass is now at two inches. Without burning marks from a conventional mower. I do have low spots in my lawn that need attention which this mower does not like, per the instructions. Also this rotary mower is not for the weak. It takes a bit of muscle to push . So having a small lawn is perfect for me.

Had to return the first lawn mower because the arms were poorly machined and wouldn't go together. Contacted the company, they were supposed to send me the details to return to them and get a replacement out. Waited a couple of days, but with the return clock ticking (4 days) I returned to Amazon instead which had a new one out the same week. Never did get the return information from the company so it was a good thing I went through Amazon. I'd still have an unusable lawn mower and be too late to return.That problem aside, the mower works well, but noisily. Crazy how much noise it makes, but not worse than the huge electric mower some of my neighbors use. So, don't buy this one if you think a push mower is, or should be, quiet. It cut really well, but even a small twig will gum up the works. So, if you have any debris, you should rake your yard first or you will be stopping and starting a lot. The bag fills up so quick. Could be because I hadn't mowed in a month (time between old one dying and getting this one up and running), but for a small yard, I had to empty 5 or 6 times.

Not sure why the reviews aren’t higher. I love this! Bought about a week ago and went crazy on my 2.5 acre yard. Great value for money, cuts great, kind of heavy but manageable, great size. Maneuverability takes a little time to get use to & it’s a little noisy but nothing like a gas lawn mower

Even in the flat parts of my yard, this mower was pretty hard to push. The blades lock up over very small debris such as small twigs. Tried all the different height settings, no change. Incredibly loud scraping noise when it does work. The catcher attachment wouldnt stay very secure either. Overall, this gets a 1 star, but i could see someone with a small very flat yard making decent use of it.

The media could not be loaded. bought it used via Amazon. said to be excellent - not at all. it had grass in the box, ha no directions. and it was scratched up. never the less, I built it - because I wanted to spare the air. it was a little tricky to assemble, like a ring puzzle, has to be done a certain way. but it can be doe in 20 min. first pass, it squeaked very loud at random. really annoying. then i made my first pass, even at the highest height it cut the grass very low. BEWARE, set it as high as possible, less you want a 'buzz cut' lawn. it did an excellent job chopping up my grass... i was impressed. but the collection back is poorly designed... it keeps popping off. i hacked a way to keep it on, via velcro and bungy chord.

So much rain this year, I got tired with my lawnmower stalling in the wet grass, never mind changing spark plugs and oil most years. In addition to a better environmental approach, I wanted to add a little bit of elbow grease back into my yard work since I no longer get as much exercise.Out of the box, SIMPLE assembly!!Into my yard of 6 inches of grass, I had to adjust the height a few times until it was perfect. I never let my yard get so long, this year we have had so much rain I didn't cut for 3 weeks. I worked and it worked! Love my 18" reel.So from one woman, to all other women out there considering a push mower, Just Do It!Good work out, definitely some toning as hoped for, but not so intense where you don't want to do. Glad I switched. No more oil changes and spark plug changes.

I wanted to love this, but the screws pop off all the time while pushing the mower, so I've replaced most of the screws several times in a month. The blades aren't very sharp and they don't cut most weeds, so they will still be sticking up throughout your yard after you mow your lawn. Also, if anything is underneath the lawn mower that could slightly get stuck under the blade, the mower will jam and you won't be able to push it all. That makes this really tough on anyone with a bad back or if your legs aren't very strong. They need to include a blade sharpener if they aren't going to give you sharp blades originally. I just missed the return window by a few days since I wanted to give this atleast a few tries, but I would definitely have returned it if I still had the opportunity. I'm basically cutting hay instead of grass, and it has tripled the time of my mowing time. I couldn't imagine having this lawn mower to cut thick, plush grass, unless the soil is perfectly even underneath. PA is notorious for hard clay soil and rocks. The mower is lightweight and the cutting length can be altered. When the screws and plastic bolts would fly off the mower, the orange color of the bolts made them easy to find, but the screws were lost.

I gotta say it's pretty great for our small yard. My husband hates smelling like gasoline so he loves its only powered by him. He's also allergic to grass so it's nice it had a catcher for the grass so it doesn't blow back on him. We've had it for one season so far and had no issues. I think anybody could use this, it's pretty common sense. My husband says not to let the grass get too tall or it can be a little hard to push.
