Love Fiskar's Staysharp Max Reel Mowers. This is our third unit purchased over the last 10 years. They work well on our relatively flat, midwestern lawn, with clippings left on the ground to decompose and nourish the sail. However, over the years, the blades get out of alignment and don't cut as well as when new--especially the weaker grass that grows in the dappled shade of our front lawn. If my husband or I were handier, we would do the maintenance work required to keep the reel mower in good cutting shape. However, we aren't handy, and bending to work on the unit has become increasingly difficult as we age. We find it easier to just replace the units after three or four years. That sounds wasteful, I know, but not when you consider that a new unit can be purchased for about the price of a single year's maintenance (tune-up and blade sharpening) for a gas-powered mower. Also, I can push these, whereas even ten years ago I didn't have the arm-strength needed to pull the cord to get the gas-powered unit going.Read full review

Great mower and I get good exercise now by mowing the yard. I live the adjustment and the ease of pushing it also.

Well built, easy assembly (one 7/16" wrench for handle assembly), cuts well. Good for maintained lawns, won't cut over 6" tall. Back and forth over tall straggler will cut, but not efficient for tall lawn. Metal is well protected / coated for rust protection. I clean w/ oil after each use for long-term protection. Nice that zero metal to metal contact for cut, less resistance, less wear and MUCH less adjustment / sharpening.
