Q: Hi there, I am interested in buying a reel lawn mower and don’t know which one to buy. I live in South Florida (Miami). I don’t want to spend money on gas and I definitely don’t like fumes. I heard our grass down here is difficult to cut with reel lawnmowers and wanted to know which one you would recommend. Thanks again. by Antonio from Florida on June 10, 2011
A: Antonio - If you live in South Florida, chances are your lawn is a St. Augustine type of grass. And yes, this is some of the toughest grass to cut with a reel mower. If you have a thick grass like a St.Augustine, a Zoysia, or a Bermuda, you are going to need a heavier weight reel mower to plow through the thicker blades of grass, and that means it's going to be harder to push. I would recommend the Fiskers Momentum reel mower. Fiskars reel mower The Fiskars weighs more than a conventional reel mower, but the forward position of the reel and the versa-cut height adjustment will probably give you the best performance when it comes to managing thick grass like you have. by Todd, Product Expert

The Greenworks 25062 reel mower helps you keep your small lawn tidier than ever. Lawn maintenance doesn't get any greener than this. No gas, no oil, no batteries, no plugs - and best of all no maintenance.
The Greenworks 25062 reel mower uses the time-tested reel mechanism that cuts your grass using nothing but a hardened steel blade and your own muscle. With a 18-inch cutting path and rear bag to collect your clippings, the cutting reel also features a height adjust system so you can select the cutting height that's best for keeping your lawn looking great.
The Greenworks 25062 has 10-inch front wheels to help you steer and maneuver around obstacles or roll over open spaces more easily.
With the Greenworks 25062, there’s no noise and no more fumes. You can actually cut your grass while talking on the phone or listening to music. You’ll be able to cut the grass early in the morning before it gets hot without disturbing the neighbors.
The Greenworks 25062 doesn’t produce that perfect cut like a gas mower, so you will have a few stray blades that didn’t get clipped, but it cuts the grass so cleanly that it’s almost like someone cut your lawn with a pair of scissors

Love it!
My home is on a large lot and the person who cuts it comes about every two weeks. I got this mower to cut areas that grow fast. It cuts better than the riding mower my lawn man uses. It's quiet and I don't have to do much upkeep. I just ordered a second one to give to a friend. I even enjoy using it.

This is so much fun and I have showed off to all my neighbors. Great way to exercise and have a beautifully cut lawn as a bonus. The mower glides over the lawn and leaves an even cut, which makes the lawn so much more attractive than using gas mowers. I am very pleased with the company and the mower.
