I had a nice self propelled mower that my father gave me when I bought this house. Thing got stolen. Picked up one of these reel push mowers. Cuts like a dream, and nobody wants to steal this one. :p
lol
Builds character
I am getting one myself
Great comment 👍
I had no idea these things were still manufactured! I used to push my grand father's around when I was a kid (a long time ago, LOL). He always encouraged me. Hmm. Pretty smart old guy. I still miss him.
When I was 11 (65 now) I would visit my Grandmother and I would spend all summer cutting her yard with a reel mower. She would be sitting on the porch in her rocking chair keeping an eye on me. It was a long hot summer. 😂😂😂. Great video👍👍👍
Good times I bet, though. Thanks!
my grandpa did the same thing to me lol he loved it when I visited " FREE LABOR" :P I didn't mind because when I was done he would take me to a Burger hoper place and then get ice cream at dairy queen
We had push and self propelled reel mowers. With them, the grass should be relatively dry unless you mow frequently to keep it trim. long wet grass is a mess to mow anyway. Reel mowers don't like sticks. rotary mowers just toss them aside. They are also very vulnerable to rust. It will seize the blades. But a really well kept, well lubed reel mower on rye or even bermuda makes a wonderfully evenly cut look..
When the subtitles are saying (applause) while he pushes the mower. Haha
Lol
I haven't mowed with one of those fore half a century. I now remember they had a tendency to jam on twigs.
I still a old sears & roebuck rotary mower back from the late 1940s. Still works just oil it with 3n1 oil and your good.
That was a nice touch having the kids jump in, shows how easy it is to push a sharp mower.
From the box, it looks like it had one hell of a trip!
I have a massive back yard and uses a ride-on mower for that. For my front yard, because it's smaller, i use one of those 18" reel mower. I'm going for a golf course type front yard and reel mowers are great for that because you can go down looooooow!!!! Plus my wife calls me fat and that i need to workout so this will be my workout.
BTW.....reel mowers are great for mowing wet grasses, unlike the rotary type
Thank god it can cut wet grass. I'm planning to buy a 20 inch one and mow at the crack of dawn before traffic gets heavy! XD
That overhead drone footage was 👌. I wish more mowing channels used drones.
How many mowing videos do you watch lol
@@shaungannon5997 As many as I can, brother.
I like those mowers. They work Great if you tune then up from time to time
Reel mowers are sweet, I love using them, fast walking with force is key lol
This is my first one. You are spot on. I found that out. I’m a convert now. Thanks!
May the force be with you.
Thank you, great video.
when I was a kid in the 80s my grandpa had an old hand power lawnmower. He refused to buy a gas power one lol He would have us kids mow the lawn for him with it. It worked great as long as you kept the blades sharp but if you didn't your life was hell. try cutting grass that's over your knee-high with a normal home gas one and then a hand mower, shocking how easier the hand mower takes it down
Great vid. I just spotted one of these used for less than $30. I'm trying to see if I can scoop it up for $20. I plan to convert it to an RC reel mower. I'm already converting a Fiskars 18in reel mower into an RC reel mower. I previously converted a John Deere JS45 with swivel wheels into an RC rotary mower, and I've been using it for 3yrs now, and it's been super great. I'm trying to switch to RC reel mowing because I like expending as little energy as possible while mowing, and also because it is healthier for my lawn. I'm considering gifting the RC Remington reel mower to my somewhat elderly neighbor to help ease his mowing efforts.
Thanks for the tips. I'll let you know how it goes
Recently i subscribed, really good content 👍🏻
Thanks for this excellent video. Just got a Scott's 20" reel mower and am excited to try it out this week.
It's good as a toy but it does a terrible job cutting grass and it's alot harder to push and slower than a gas mower
@@forestman2382 It works great for me, now in year two. I just might get some grease and sand so I can sharpen the blade soon. It doesn't feel very hard for me to push, and I like not having to worry about gas, oil or spark plugs.
Thank’s for the review and your advice 👍 ( At 0,49 I laugh so hard mouhaha !!! 😂 )
Try a Fiscars reel mower. I'm on my second one. Uses a belt connected to wheel running inside and behind the blades. Not for big yards or tall grass.
Seeing you struggle a bit at 7:15, I have to bear in mind that this grass is soaking wet and almost flattening as you push over it. But, that mower still did a damn good job for the price of it. I've just taken down from the attic, my 40 year old Qualcast (UK) reel/cylinder push mower, where it's been for 21 years. Cleaned up not too bad considering the attic is not watertight in the house, so, a bit of rust and paint flaking. All greased up and oiled, the only thing to complete the job is backlapping the blades and I should be good to go.
Thanks for the insight! Could you share what type of oil you used?? ☺️
@@ashleybrown4450 - Hello! Apologies for the late reply. To wipe down the reel mower after taking it from the attic, I just used a cloth soaked in WD-40. That took all the dust off. I gave the blades on the reel a very light brush of fresh car engine oil (unused clean oil, basic 10w/40), but any clean oil will do). Left that for a minute and wiped it off (don't want too much oil on the blades when cutting the grass).
I removed the wheels (to get at the nylon gears behind) by popping off the metal 'hub cap', removing the E-clip, and sliding off the wheel. Applied some EP2 Grease to the gearing and re-assembled (it's what was in the garage, but could also have used my red motorcycle grease (Silkolene ProRG2). But, all in all, no fancy or expensive lubricants are required as it's not a high tech machine, nor one that is under heavy load.
I have a can of ''ACF-50'', which is a fantastic product that I use on my motorbike. It's anti-corrosive and leaves a long lasting protective film. I used that on all the nuts and bolts and the reel adjuster springs, but good old (and reliable) ''3-in-One'' penetrating oil would do just as well.
I hope this helps. Sorry it's a bit long, but will finish by saying: don't let repair shop or 'die-hard' lawnmower people sell you fancy lubricants or recommend expensive grease in a huge tube that will take you 20 years to use. All you need is a can of WD-40 or 3-in-One, and a teaspoon size splodge of grease on each wheel gear. It could be basic white grease, or black grease (used for ball joints or bearings in cars). As long as it helps reduce the friction between the plastic gear and the plastic wheel, then all is good.
All the best. Dogue.
@@WhosAGoodDogue This was super helpful, thank you so much!
The traditional design of reel mower is that the cutting action is like scissors. It would take more effort to push because of the frictions. And you'll see a few tall grasses sticking out like a sour thumb. If I re-design the reel mower, I would do the following: It should cut with speed like a weed whacker cut with a nylon string. The reel blades should be all straight not twisted. The reel shaft should be equipped with ball bearings on both ends. The blades are made of alloy steel hardened to RC60. The bottom fixed blade should be eliminated to avoid twigs getting stuck in there.
The traditional push mower will cut much better if the reel blades are sharp and do not make contact with the bottom fixed blade. Push it at faster speed and you won't see sour thumb sticking out behind the track.
Would you gear it up so that it rotated faster? Do it. I'd buy one.
I started to watch this and I love Remington's. Good video.
Just remember, with a reel mower you set the mow height to no more then 1/3 the length of the grass blades. Ideally you should only cut 1/4 " at a time.
" I like to cut my grass a 1/4 inch at a time." - Dominic Toretto
Works great on Bermuda. That’s what I mow our back lawn with
Mother and I bought a couple of those mowers. Someone was selling a home and was selling all the stuff off. I know you may think I'm big tome because I live in LA. But it actually Lower Arkansas. Dad used one 9f them, surprised at how well it cut. I have two of them. Old but work good. It things get bad, sell it as exercise equipment.
I love mine it works well.
we had a reel mower in the 1960's and it worked better than the new ones , the new one i got didnt come sharpened
Handlebars upside down ? Shoulda read them directions😅
Was going to say something about the handlebars but knew you'd figure it out. LOL
You're a funny guy. Thanks for the upload.
I have one as well, pine cones stop it dead but no gas and quiet. Oh and I have a very small lawn. Like your channel...
My gas mower needed a new deck, carb, and tune up. I also live where 87 octane is $6.00 a gallon or very near it. So I said the heck with it and chose electric. Battery to be exact, I chose the Stihl 510 battery push mower. The reason for the stihl is for its low noise, low voltage. 36 at 7.5 AH, yet long running time. The other models have 60 to 80 volts. They run at a noise level, equal to the exhaust side. Of a turbine engine, at full output. Example Toro and Worx nitro. Again my stihl is much much more quieter. I cut the front lawn with a fully charged battery. I used half of the single battery's charge. To cut the front lawn, take it into effect that my lawn was 4" tall. Dry, now 1" tall when cut. Would have otherwise used a full tank of gas. On my 5.5 hp Briggs mower.
I was thinking of getting one as my grass is a good bit away from the house so rather than have lots of cable with an electric mower the manual would be much better and less costly as it take muscle rather than add to your electricity bill.
Back in the early 60's my Dad had a push reel mower.
My job was to cut the grass.
I hated that thing.
I bet you're still lazy.
@@hawghawg381 I accomplished the tasks assigned. Fed chickens, shoveled cow manure, (I learned about windage with the spreader) helped with the milking, loaded hay bales, cut wood. Yep, still lazy. No pigs.
Yard cigar 😂. That’s awesome. Love your videos keep it up!
How did it do with dry grass? I know even with a regular mower, wet grass gums up the works.
You can lighten the tension on the bed knife to make pushing easier and still maintain the sharpness of the blade. Look up how to backlap reel mower blades on UA-cam. You’ll be much happier with the mower.
You have a beautiful Family My Friend! great video!
It’s wonderful watching you interacting with your girls 😎😇🤣❤️
I’ve watched quite a bit of gentleman giving a review on these suckers. They did what they could for the content and review. Yours was well communicated without added talk. You’ve won me over and I will be getting one. Thank you sir!!!
Had one in the 1960s I don't miss it.
Was that music a bit of "Bad Manners" from the Uk :)
I'm the same man. I never read the manual lol. "Ain't nobody got time for no manual " lol
Lol yeah right! It takes me 2h to cut my yard with a 54in riding mower.
I just bought a bosch one. $146 NZD. $2.75 a litre for 91 octane
So the grass that gets cut, do you pick it up or leave it to dry up on the lawn over time?
The cut grass is left to degrade and return nutrients back to the grass/dirt. Most come with collection bags, including the 1 used in this video.
Haha you are so funny. You have what we in Sweden call Pappahumor, in english fatherhumor.
1 is that the grass is wet so it won’t stick wen the grass is dry
I've always wonder what the difference in effort between this and a gas powered mower? Seems like heavier weight and automatic power vs lighter weight but the blade speed is determined by pushing force and speed. Not including grass types or height, which is easier?
Gas or electric is much easier
@@HAXMAN but you don't build forearms with those. It's much more rewarding. I EARNED my $5 mowing Old Man Sullivan's back yard. his was an old one from sears
I want to start cutting lawns for money using one of the push mowers
hand powered domination? sounds like something from a corn movie
they do have gas powered reel mowers, or at least they used to
I want one
Try a 7 blade Earthwise reel
How high do those cut?
@@spikefivefivefive www.walmart.com/ip/Earthwise-16-7-Blade-Push-Reel-Mower/54308349
I think .5 to 2.5 or 3.5. I cant remember
They could actually do toys like that for kids, every boy would love to have one....
As soon as you started talking about yard cigars I knew I had to subscribe 🤣
You had me at "ain't nobody got time for directions..."
it appears that the grass is wet thats y its caking up also, there should b a bag with it/
That’s a hard test with how wet that grass is.
How much could this cost?
Under $100
YOU: "You want to go ahead and finish this half acre for me?"
Daughters: "NOPE"
You've got them wrapped around your finger! (que The Police)
tropical storm? you must be in florida!

@@HAXMAN is that a new state?

No longer available as of Aug 29/2021
You need to cut often with a reel mower. Headphones and something to listen to works good with this type of mower. Get ready for a bunch of views, Cali is banning small gas engines.
Use a scythe much more satisfying.
And you look like the grim reaper
doesnt work too well with certain types of grass
Wow a tough guy who can make fun of other countries for no reason and also is soft enough to asmr his video for you. How cute are you buttercup lmao.
Wow. You must be the ultimate keyboard warrior. China simp 🤣💩
need to go to yard sales in the mountains for a real push lawn mower with a wood hand that the ticket.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That thing sounds like a demon possessed turkey! 😂
Never cut grass when it wet.
It would be Okay if you had a Half Acre or Less and IF your yard was Perfectly FLAT and No Ruts, Roots or anything else sticking up out of the ground. Just wish they had Larger wheels and if that would make them Push Easier.
It is official. I'm a party people now.
Chyyyna 😆
It clogged because its wet
Hmm tall grass wet grass .You're out if shape like most of us lol .yepp
🤔😂"Ain't nobody got time for directions"...coming from a fellow man...
7 months later this no longer the cheapest, is more like mid price.
Don't get a reel mower and expect your grass to be immaculate unless you want mowing to be your hobby. Sime people are into that. I am not.
I also don't care what my grass looks like so long as it is shorter when I'm done.
I've been using a similar mower for a year and I'm super lazy about lawn care.
I mow most of an acre with a riding mower and get the rest with the reel mower.
I like the reel mower better than my old Husqvarna push mower, and that husky was a great mower.
Ain't nobody got time fer directions....oops, I put my handlebars on upside down.
Yard tater 😂I’m sorry I’m immature
must mow the yard twice that is 2 times🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The handle is upside down!!!!
89.99 and it wasn't electric? Such a bad deal. There's decent enough electric ones in the UK for £65
Yeah, maybe corded ones. The battery-powered mowers I've seen tend to be upwards of £150 or they're like the Karcher models where the battery is sold separately and costs more than the mower itself.
Not saying 90 USD is a great deal, I don't think it is, but push mowers are generally much cheaper than electric ones. And I don't particularly trust Fly-Mo.
Haha yard cigar
Hahaha the spider ending
By 2:00 I was concerned. I had a feeling his removal of the body would result in the blades moving and his fingers would be in the way, and then he wanted to toss the directions. *Cringe*
I have those shoes. Dad respect.
😉
What kind of shoes are those??
Notice the way he said china sounds like trump 😂
😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
I got one similar from walmart. The Handle broke just above the screw, weakest point. It just past the 2year warranty and they said no to the warranty.Don't buy walmart Junk!
You need a weed eater now
Spider eyes. Yikes!!
"CHYNAA" oh how I miss trump :(
Man wearing North Face and Quicksilver unironically complains about products made in China.
Been there done that, I will never ever go back to real mower no matter what kind that is and who and which country they made it. They will never get the job done. Cheap is not the solution when it comes mowing. Period!
What other crap is made in China!!!!
Oh yeah...my phone.
Please stop it, this mower is useless
No u
