For just a small lawn, do you think a reel mower is ok, or will they get rusted up and hard to push after a while.

What do you think, reel, electric, gas.

I need to buy one, but it's just a small lawn about 20 feet by 15 feet.

It depends on how big your lawn is, and what type of grass you have.

My old lawn was about the same size as yours and I used a reel mower very effectively on it. But with some "cool season" grasses (bluegrass, rye, fescue), you really have to keep up with it. Taller grass can be dificult to cut w/ a reel mower.

If you have a Southern grass, like Bermuda, Zoysia, St. Augustine - they are great mowers. You'd definitely be better off using a reel mower on one of these.

You can pick up a new reel mower for about $60, so it's not a big investment. A gas or electric will run you considerably more.

I have a back yard that has a steep incline, probably about 30 degrees. The power electic mower is very heavy to maneuver, can tip sideways being top heavy when going across and cant make it up the hill. A hand push reel mower doesn't work very well either. I am considering trying an electric mower. Will that work? I cant afford to have a company come and mow my lawn. Any suggestions other than letting die and make my life easier? Thanks

I'd suggest growing something else that you don't have to trim. Any push mower will have an issue of being tippy.

I'm trying to start a GREEN lanw care service in Plymouth. Ma. I have looked around and have'nt found any in this area. So the question is do you think I could find some lawn mower company or some ECO-friendly buisness to help me get the equipment I need to get this up and running? I plan on donating money from the buisness to charity once its up and making money.I'm going to donate to a cancer or an ECO cause. I'm going to use only organic lawn treatments and electric and reel mowers. I need to find or have someone build like 3reel mowers together,becaue their so small it would take for ever to mow a yard. But I think it's a GOOD idea. GO GREEN. The name I plan to use is Clean Air Lawn Care! Pleas tell me what you think and be honest I need feed back so I can put ideas in order thank you

I think that you have an awesome idea! Good Luck!

I am looking at buying a push reel mower instead of gas/electric.

Our lawn is .71 of an acre. Would it be insanely hard to cut a yard that big with a push reel mower? There is only $30 difference in the price between the gas and push mowers, so price isn't the issue.

ALSO on that note about mowers. We bought a $400 used riding lawn tractor from our neighbor that he had fixed up and used for a year On the first cut, a belt on the mowing deck broke. My hubby keeps buying new belts to hopefully fix it, but they keep breaking too. So, we have a $00 lawn tractor that hubby refuses to talk to the neighbor about- he doesn't want any hard feelings, he says. I'm mad and either want our $ back or him to fix it. Our lawn is a mess, hubby won't buy a new mower, and I have been paying someone to cut our lawn. What should we do about it?

You must be joking, cut over two thirds of an acre of lawn with a push mower, are you the Olympic shot putt Champion ?. Right, forget the push mower, that leaves two options. I. repair the sit on mower or 2. purchase a petrol mower. I think you would get your sit on repaired for much less than the cost of a new mower. Find out your dealers, it doesn't have to be the same maker. Get it in for repair and service. It will be like new when you get it back.......problem solved. By the way, your hubby sounds a bit like me.

I mean it's SO much better for the environment! I stopped using one about 20 years ago.
I went to an electric mower first; but after mowing thru the cord a few times, I decided I needed something else. (I hear that now there's an electric mower that's CORDLESS!...& why not? with everything else electric that runs without a cord!!!

From there I bought a "REEL" mower. (now this is not for ppl with big lawns...but having a smaller one like most of us do---it's IDEAL!

I want to know if the cost of gasoline has pushed any of you over to these alternative mowers???

I say there's nothing wrong with using an electricity powered lawn-mower, if you cant see the wire to avoid it, you definitely shouldnt go near anything petroleum powered
