Thr reel mower has a much better quality of cut. You can prove this to yourself by examinining individual stalks of grass with magnification. Reel cut grass should have a sheared blade of grass with the blade having an even, green end. A rotary cut blade of grass will be fractured on the cut end and it will be brownish after cutting. The ovrall result will be a darker, more dense lawn with a reel mower, the grass being healthier and less stressed.

@@DaddingAllDay Maybe next year time will tell. Grew up cutting Bermuda with one but they can scalp the heck out of it. My number one reason for wanting one happens in the fall and that is leaves! For about the same cost a reel mower is not gonna help me clear massive amounts of leaves that I deal with. Just not practical. I still want one eventually but not as my primary machine.

Great video and the last parto of it surprised me but I appreciate you pray for us.

I'm a bash brother.

I enjoy listening to music in my ears while I reel. I am just not sure if I should buy 16 or 18 inch. It's a tough decision. I bought a 14 inch and counted my steps and it's the same as my 21 inch MTD gas mower. I think this guy is just out of shape. After the 3rd time, you will get comfortable with it. I have fescue, I like it and only cut once a week. Seriously, I think this young man is out of shape.

I had a longer comment but it's pointless, and yes, at the time I was 30 pounds heavier, but that had nothing to do with my enjoyment or lack there of. I'd like to see people mow 4,000 square feet up hill, or along the hill, uneven (at the time), and tell me it's an enjoyable mow. When people have a level, flat lawn, reel mowing is easy. Anyway, that doesn't matter. I'm fine with people calling me out. Thanks for watching.

The struggle is real. Somedays I wish I had a pit crew for the mower, not to mention the need to cut my 14k sq ft 2-3x a week. I thought PGR would be my saving grace but that just introduced more complexity. Never needed to verticut until PGR.

Why does reel mower take longer than a rotary mower? I imagine a 20 inch reel mower will take same amount of time to mow as a 20 inch rotary.

@DaddingAllDay

Жыл бұрын

More time, meaning I need to mow more often with the reel mower. If I let the grass get too long, the reel mower doesn't do well. You get more forgiveness with the rotary. With my new job, there's no way I can mow every 2-3 days. Sorry for not making that clearer in the video. Thanks for watching.

You may have the worst yard to reel mow I’ve ever seen. That may be why you don’t like it so much. Inclines, slants, divits, dirt spots etc. I mow my yard every Saturday during the mowing season. I only have to mow it once. I think you made a great video, well done.

You're absolutely right about my yard. When I had more time, it wasn't too bad... a really good workout. The inclines and what not make the experience a lot more challenging for sure.

@@NewsNowLIVE1 You shouldn't overseed bermuda. Bermuda seed is trash. My lawn is perfectly fine, I scalped because it had been too long since I last reel mowed. So I had to mow twice, once with the rotary and again with the reel. Reel mowing, as I said in the video, takes more time and commitment, than I'm able to give it. This is my second season transitioning from a fescue sod that the previous owners had to bermuda. Thanks for watching and commenting. See my later videos to see how the lawn turned out.
