Ratings & Reviews for Fiskars 18-in 4 Reel Lawn Mower

Outstanding reel mower

Bought mine second hand, but it can shred some grass. The down fall to the reel mowers, is that they do very poor job if you try to cut taller grass (I'm talking 8 - 10 inches tall).

Requires more work than you think, you have to cut more often with this and forget about trying if there is dew in the morning. I wish I could return this... this cost too much for this headache.

The manufacture shoilf be ashamed of themselfs for selling this product. I am not sure what it is ment to do but it does not cut grass

Cuts well,not as maneuverable as Scotts

Bought this to replace a Scotts manual reel mower. The Fiskars is significantly heavier than the Scotts. I think the Fiskars delivers the better cut between the two, but it is extremely hard to turn. Assembly was easy, though I suspect I'll be having to tighten the handle bolts regularly

Mower falls apart

I can’t mommy backyard without the mower falling apart at least 2 dozen times first. The handle slides off, due to it only being held by flimsy cotter pins. It is a terribly designed lawnmower.

Used it. Liked it. But returned it...

I bought and used this mower for 3-4 weeks. The cutting ability is second to none. It's not hard to push and makes some great lines in the yard. I decided to return it though for a few reasons. 1) My lawn is surrounded by mulch. The small bark pieces that were in the yard kept getting caught in the wheel and jamming it up. Not a huge deal but when it keeps happening it does get a little annoying. 2) We have a fence and manuvering when close to the fence and in tight quarters was challenging. ...

Very poor mower

If you need a mower that turns or you're not mowing a billiard table this is NOT the mower for you. It doesn't do too bad on straight lines but good luck if you have a tree in your lawn. It pushes really easy on concrete. It cannot cut lawn that is over 6 inches so don't miss a mowing day. Really disappointed in this product and wasted money.

Can't Take a Lickin' Keep On Tickin

So a 1/2" pebble got tossed up out of the lawn and completely took this mower out. I guess it got caught between the reel blade and bed knife and knocked the blade out of whack. Now that blade rubs the bed knife so much that it stalls the reel and makes a heck of a grinding. If i adjust to stop the one blade from rubbing then the remaining 4 blades are too far away to cut. Sadly, that was only my fourth cut. There will be plenty more small pebbles in my lawn and if they can take out a $200 mow...

Free

I'm a Dumpster Snorkeler and found this baby for FREE.99. It's like brand new. Saved the world by not letting it go to the landfill.

Easy to use straight out of the box

There were only 4 small bolts that came with the mower to attach the handle to the unit and assembly was a breeze. Operation of the mower is literally as simple pushing it forward. It is much lighter than a traditional gas powered mower which makes it easier to push. This mower is extremely effective at cutting grass and it doesn't vibrate the way a gas powered mower does. I especially love that there is no need for gas or oil so it doesn't cost me anything to use. To make it even better, this p...

Lot of work even for a small yard

Not a bad push mower if your home has thin bladed grass. The St. Augustine grass here in Florida is brutal on this machine. You will miss a lot of overgrown areas and get stuck if you run into a big patch or soaked area of the yard. I've been using it for about a year and half now and regret buying this thing but made the investment already. Stay away unless you want a workout mowing the lawn.

Awesome Product

Cuts like a champ and easy to push for the kids! Definitely serves the purpose we bought it for.

Saving the environment

easy to put together and easy to cut grass, great work out and starts every summer after a cold winter!

no gas needed

This lawnmower is amazing! I was just replacing an old push mower thinking this would just be a new version of the old one but this is just as good as a gas mower without the hassle of gas, oil and pull starts!

LOVE THIS MOWER

I needed this mower for the areas close to my home that the landscapers NEVER cut short enough here in our subdivision. I love how it cuts for the areas I need to use it.

Love it!!

I bought this because I hate using my husband's zero turn lawn mower and I've been wanting a reel mower for a while now. After lots of research and review reading, I decided with this one. I've just used it for the first time on my medium sized yard. Very pleased! Assembly was very simple. My yard looks amazing. However, it doesnt cut anything that's taller than 6 inches. My grass was a little overgrown, so I probably should have mowed first with a gas powered to make it more manageable. Nonethe...

Best Reel mower & options make it even better

This 18" Reel is easy to use, love that it can shoot clippings to front or back. The added bonus is that it can lift to cut up to 6" high as opposed to others that have a set lower cutting height.

its pretty good

we live in the city and have a small front yard. Bought it 6 years ago and still going stronng and still sharp. It’s a little on the heavy side but easy to maneuver. It still misses cuts like any other lawnmore where the wheel goes over the grass. Oh it does cut grass close to six inches but keep in mind that it will miss a few. Wouldnt use it for big yards as it may be to heavt to push
