Tools and Hardware Reviews of Scotts 20-Inch Classic Push Reel Lawn Mower #2000-20

Customer Review: Good eco-friendly mower; but not perfect
Summary: 4 Stars

From reading the reviews, I thought this mower would be the panacea of all mowers. It is, indeed, very good. But, I have to provide an objective, balanced review.

Pros:

1) Quiet (but not silent) operation.

2) No gas or electricity. Very eco-friendly!

3) Push and go. Little maintenance.

4) Cheaper than other eco-friendly options like battery powered mowers or corded.

5) Easy for small lawns; produces a crisp, clean cut if you go over the area thoroughly.

6) Small size is good for storage.

I give it a high recommendation, but it is not perfect for several reasons:

CONS

1) It does not do well against edges of the lawn. This is because the wheels must touch solid ground to operate the blades. If you edge is against a curb, this will be hard to accomplish.

2) It will NOT cut weeds, tall grass, or wet/damp grass (it will somewhat, but not very well).

3) Twigs, debris, etc. will often clog the mower.

4) The grass clippings can be lodged on the back of the mower and will fall off into your garage (or wherever you store this mower). It is necessary to lift the mower and/or manually pull out the excess clippings.

5) The handle is not a single solid piece and, therefore, is a bit wobbly. It would have been better to have a single solid handle.


Overall, I would likely buy the mower again given the size of my lot. However, if you have 3/4 acre or more, this might be too strenuous if you are unaccustomed to it. Also, if you want a flawless yard or have some inclines, it may not meet expectations.

It is likely best suited for a 1/2 acre or less yard with only gentle slopes.

Description of Scotts 20-Inch Classic Push Reel Lawn Mower #2000-20

The Scott's classic reel mower is light, maneuverable, and economical. The business end of this push reel mower is solid, sharp, and everything a reel mower should be, with five heat-treated, knife-sharp steel blades that can be adjusted for nine grass heights with very easy wheel tabs. With its 10-inch wheels, radial tires, and 20-inch cutting width, this mower should enable you to cross whatever terrain and reach whatever hard-to-access rogue patches of grass you desire. There's no soft cushion on the handle, which is too bad, but otherwise, the Scotts Classic is a durable, well-constructed, simple device.
