 - Piece of junkDo not buy this product. I chose it because of the cutting width and height adjustments. The thing broke within the first hour of use. Amazon sent a replacement, and that one also broke, although after about 4 months of use. The two-year warranty is worthless, as they won't replace their defective product. This mower has a serious design flaw. The sprockets inside the wheels are made out of plastic. They get stripped by the metal of the blade-axel. Then they are totally worthless. After one breaks then the blade is turned only by the other side, putting more strain on it. It will soon break too. This was two separate units that broke. It's not that I got a lemon. The product is worthless. Reel mowers are very nice. Choose another brand. Rating:  - Great lawn mower for smaller yardsThe Scotts 20-inch Classic Push Reel Lawn Mower does a great job on my smaller yard. I have used it about half a dozen times and only encounter problems when I come across small sticks. The quiet nature and lack of fumes is well worth the the small amount of headache sticks create. Overall a great product. Rating: - Great mower, good work outThe mower works great, although you have to keep up with it. If the grass gets to long, it won't cut it. A great way to workout. Rating:  - Bad factory adjustmentsI liked the whole idea of not paying for gasoline and not having to maintain a power mower. When this mower arrived, I found that the reel was adjusted so tight that it could not even be moved. The instructions said that it was properly adjusted by the factory. It wasn't and after considerable work on my part I managed to get it to work fairly well. It does take more effort to push this mower and I wouldn't advise someone to use it if they are not in good physical shape. Rating: - No FussMy Scott's mower has proved to be a good purchase so far. I've used it several times over the last few months and have enjoyed using it. I originally purchased it so I could have the kids cut the lawn without worrying about them having an accident with my power mower. They now prefer using the Scott's over the power because it's quicker and lighter to handle than the power. I enjoy it for the exercise I get and the ability to use it during early or late times without bothering my neighbors. My only concern for the future use is the durability of the mower handle. The wing nut screws seem to loosen after awhile and need a turn here and there-but so far no big problem. The other rule that I've read before is you can't let the lawn get too long and try to bull through it-you can but it won't look good. In conclusion-good product-wanted to buy an American made mower but they did not get the positive reviews this one did!
