How much longer to cut grass with a Scotts reel mower?
 
Hi,

I was hoping to get some opinions on the Scotts' reel mower (manual).

Currently, I use a 22 inch push mower to cut my yard ~10K square foot.
It takes me a little less than a hour to power through it.

Any guesses how much longer it would take with a reel mower?

Thanks.

Greg

Greg, I thought I was going to use a push mower when I was much younger and
dumber. Trouble is, if your lawn is not very smooth and flat, IMO, it will
take you double the time, and you will not have the clippings collected, and
they will not be in 'leave on the lawn' condition.
Just keep your rotary's blade sharp!!

Thanks for the advice.

I realized when I was cutting the grass this weekend that it probably
would be a bad idea with my lumpy yard to switch mowers.
