The Reviews...
The Scotts 200-20 has recieved overall very positive reviews from people who have puchased and now use the reel mower. The online reviews are excellent. A lot of people commented on how easy and quick it is to assemble this mower. Others say it is safer and much better for the environment, not to mention the cost savings of fuel and oil for the old gas powered mowers. One reviewer stated it is quiet, safer and inexpensive.
I assume some potential buyers are asking the same questions. I will venture to say that it is actually JUST AS EASY TO USE A REEL MOWER AS IT IS TO USE A GAS-POWERED MODEL. There is NOTHING about a gas-powered mower than makes it easier to use, and gas-powered mowers do not save any time, espcially when you consider all the peripheral needs of owning one. Overall, this is an example of a simple, low-tech solution to a common need.
One reviewer found that it keeps losing the e-clip from the right side (the E-clip holds the handles onto the base). Another reviewer stated that the wheels on his reel mower flattened the grass. However the majority of reviewers were very positive and felt good about their new reel mower and also felt good about cutting down their carbon footprint.
"The reviews on Amazon were encouraging, but I did a lot more research than that. I looked at the Brill Luxus, but it has a maximum cutting height of 1.8". I don't know about you, but my lawn is definitely not a golf course. This Scotts mower is the only one with a maximum 3" cutting height, and I use it at about 2.5".
Price: Amazon also has the best deal I found, especially with free shipping. Other sites are charging $180 and up, plus shipping."
