are they easy to use ?


yes and no. In theory they should partly propel themselves, but in
practice you end up using a fair bit of muscle in driving the thing.
You'll find you spend the first half hour or so working out a system that
suits you. For example, you might cut a strip about 6 metres long, roll it
up, then discover it's too heavy to lift. You need to factor in about the
same time for moving the cut turf as you do cutting. The thing to remember
is it's a turf CUTTER, not LIFTER, and you can zoom around cutting the
turf, which stays neatly cut on the lawn until you roll it up and move it
somewhere. To sum up, I'd say the cutting bit doesn't take as much time as
the rolling up, lifting and moving of the cut turf. And the whole thing,
cutting and lifting, is very good exercise!
