Remington RM3100 (18") 5-Blade Push Reel Mower w/ Grass Catcher

I bought this mower to save money upfront and on maintenance. Not only has it been great along those lines, it's also more convenient than a gas-powered or electric mower. No need for ear nor eye protection.

I had the mower and used it 1.75 times. The second time I used it a pea sized rock bent one of the blades and now the blade wont clear the horizontal blade.

I wanted a mower that I didn't need to use gas with, and this one is great, easy to maneuver, it is a little noisy, but I knew that from previous reviews, it's very easy to use and is perfect for me, I go up and down the small slope in my back yard with ease - great mower.

This mower is fantastic when one would like a good workout, when one cares about the tranquillity of the block, or when you simply have a tight wallet. That being said. Prepare to empty the hamper often, be prepared to mow frequently, and be prepared to sharpen the blades frequently. This mower will have trouble in tall grass or clumly grass. Be sure to remove any and all sticks in the yard too.

Summary - Pros: cheap, quiet, good workout. Cons: is increasingly difficult with tall grass or obstacles, requires frequent honing, takes more time than a standard gas mower.

Conclusion: 4 out of 5 stars

He loved it, loved it, loved it! Didn't have to pull any string., Cut a very sharp line. No gasoline. The yard was done in half the time without all the fumes making our environment much better instead of having the air hang with the smell of fumes for 3 blocks! Very good product as long as you catch the grass. Later on in the year we will let the clippings stay on the lawn for extra mulch on the lawn.

I live on a quarter acre comprised of three terraced sections of lawn with slopes. Was afraid to spring for the Fiskar's Momentum (my first choice) due to the price and uncertainity of whether a reel mower would work on the slopes. Purchased this mower from Walmart for $79. It's great for the price. Nice foam ergonomic handle, easy to assemble and adjust, above average quality. It works fine on my slopes. It cuts the grass crisply and the scissors action is better for the lawn that the tearing action of power mowers. One caveat, however, reel mowers miss a lot of blades of grass and you will get a good, but not great, cut. If you are a perfectionist, a reel mower is not for you. If, however, you like a lightweight mower that is easy to use, great for the environment, provides a nice workout, and does require gasoline or spew fumes, I highly recommend this mower.

This lawn mower works well for a reel mower. The best part about it is the amount of exercise I get while using it. I have an acre and a half lawn so this is only used for a fenced area that the riding mower can't get to. It will work best for lawns that are flat and rock and stick free. You will find that adjusting the height of the blades is important to your success and ease of cutting the lawn. Well worth the money and brings back memories...

I love it-----It cuts very well////I needed a mower and I enjoy old school products and it was the right fit for me.

I thought if I could push this thing around when I was a girl at my Grandma's then I won't have a problem. I have an average lot yard in town so it's perfect. I watched my neighbors get their mowers out for the first time this spring & tug & pull on the rope. A single lady had to go get her neighbor to come & help.

I love the smell of a fresh cut lawn but the fumes, not so much. I went straight to google & found this mower at our nearest Farm & Fleet. Brought it home put the handle on adjusted the strap for the bagger as high as it would go & it works great.

I had trouble with the bagger at first, but it has to be pulled all the way up so you'll have a long extra webbing string. That way, the bag won't drag. Give it some good lube on the axle & other moving parts (not the blades). The only thing it would have been nice to have a picture in the manual to show where to lube it.

I needed the exercise - Doctors orders after a stroke..

Mower went together very easily. The height adjustment was really easy. Blade action very smooth. Only disappointment is the grass catcher - it's not very good. Will look for a replacement.

The mower is a very good product. We have a lot of trees - twigs and small pine cones - I raked before first use - no issues with blades.

I love my new mower. I don't have a very big yard so now I can come home from work take my mower off the wall (it hangs easily) and I'm done in 40 minutes.

One less trip to the gym needed. It's actually quicker than my old gas mower which never seemed to have gas and was a pain to start.

As the other reviews state the catcher is kind of cheap. I'll be figuring our a way to improve it soon. Other than that it is ideal for a small lot.
