Craftsman 14-Inch Push Reel Lawn Mower with Grass Catcher

Craftsman reel lawn mowers are a healthy alternative to other lawn mowers. This old-fashioned lawn mower relies solely on your energy to operate, making it a 100% manual-powered reel mower that produces zero fumes or emissions. With low maintenance requirements, the only thing you need to keep in mind is the sharpness of the blades. The 5-blade reel mower has a cutting width of 14" and features durable heat-treated alloy steel blades with an adjustable cutting height of ½” - 1 ¾”. Its composite wheels aid in transportation and maneuverability.

This type of push mower uses a cutting action that is gentle on grass blades, preventing bruising or damage. To achieve the best results, avoid cutting more than 1/3 of the grass blade length at once to encourage deeper roots. Increase overlap while mowing if your grass exceeds a height of 4 inches and avoid mowing wet grass to prevent an uneven cut. Ensure that your lawn is clear of debris before using the reel mower, as it works best on well-maintained lawns. For lawns that are overgrown with divots and tall weeds, it is recommended to prepare the lawn beforehand to avoid multiple passes with the reel mower.

The Craftsman 5-blade manual push lawn mower has a cutting width of 14 inches and an adjustable cutting height of ½”-1¾”. It is lightweight and features a comfortable T-style handle with cushioned grips, along with 8.5” front wheels and a rear roller bar. Assembly is easy with tool-less assembly, and a grass catcher is included for your convenience. The mower can operate with or without the grass catcher, and while it may not capture all grass clippings due to the gentle cutting action, it offers a planet-friendly, pollution-free, and noise-free option for maintaining a healthy and green lawn.

Maintenance for a push mower requires regular mowing to prevent tall grass from becoming a burden. It is more effective to mow smaller amounts more frequently rather than allowing the grass to grow long. The reel mower only cuts what passes between the reel and the cutter bar, so keeping your lawn at a manageable length will ensure a proper cut. For overgrown lawns, be prepared to make multiple passes to achieve the desired results.
