Tools and Hardware Reviews of American Lawn Mower 1304-14 14-Inch Economy Push Reel Lawn Mower With T-Style Handle And Heat Treated Blades
Customer Review: Fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband sold our gas mower when we hired a lawn service. I got rid of the lawn service when we replaced our backyard lawn with a deck, but I still have a small, shady front lawn that needs care. I don't like the noise and smells of gas mowers, so I thought I'd give this a try. It's wonderful! It arrived in three days and my 12 year old put it together in ten minutes. My 9 year old immediately used it to mow the overgrown front lawn, which took him less than five minutes. The mower is small and easy to maneuver and the blades are sharp and efficient. I was even able to trim the edges of the lawn easily. This is a simple, inexpensive, quick, and very effective replacement for a heavy, noisy, smelly gas mower. Highly recommended!Customer Review: Beware, No warranty!
Summary: 1 Stars
No warranty is mentioned for this reel mower, so beware, it may not have one, or it might be a very short one! I saw the same brand on another website, looked like it only had a 90 day warranty! Ridiculous! Is the manufacturer that afraid the thing won't last that 3 months ... must be if that is the best they are willing to offer!!!
I also read the other 9 reviews, and would say at least 6 of them seemed way overboard positive reviews, yeah, almost like salesmanship! And, I checked what other reviews they had written, and guess what, none! They only wrote about this particular reel mover! Suspicious! Recommand going with another company, maybe Scott's, at least they offer a 2 year warranty!
Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 4 Stars
Owned this since Sept of last year and have several mows under it's belt now. No parts problems, no gas = no expenses! I'm a person who likes to exercise, so that was an added benefit also, as burning a few more calories isn't an issue for me. I am not an eco-nut so the 'green' movement doesn't mean squat to me (with the B.S global warming talk), so that has zero effect on why I bought and why I love this mower. I'll never go with a big clunky motor driven one again.
I'd give it five stars but the foam handles didn't hold up and I had to wrap them with duct tape. Small complaint and not a huge deal, but because of it I can't give it five.
Customer Review: Poorly conceived, poorly designed
Summary: 1 Stars
The American Lawn reel mower is uni-directional, push only. You can't pull the mower along behind you, and you can't pull it towards you. This makes cross-hatch mowing near impossible and even simple straight line mowing considerably harder than it needs to be. The blade height is non-adjustable, the blades jam on the smallest of twigs, and the cheap grips slide along the handle bars requiring constant readjustment. One reviewer mentioned this mower was a car stopper. Yes, indeed it is. People will stop and wonder what on earth possessed you to buy such a horrible mower.Customer Review: love my new mower!
Summary: 5 Stars
easy to put together. my 5'4 wife did it all on her own. i bought it for her since i wont be home. she can push it easily and loves the way it cuts. before buying it the grass got way over grown and now it is right where it should be. the blade is really sharp and cuts great. we ordered it through amazon and got it in 5 days with free shipping. bought the grass catcher to go with it which was easy to install and works great with this mower. my wife loves her new mower which is great for the enviroment and perfect for are little yard.
