20" Scotts Classic Push Reel Mower Review

I bought the Scotts 20 inch push mower today at Home Depot.  I originally went to buy an electric or gas mower but they were $300+ and our lawn is so small I went for this cheaper and more environmentally friendly choice.

The mower was easy to put together and did a nice job mowing our 25 x 40  lawn. We had sod planted about 4 weeks ago so I had let the lawn grow pretty long to give it a chance to set down some roots.   I appreciated the fact that I could raise the mower up all the way to 4 inches or lower it down to 1.5 inches.  The Scotts model just below this one did not go as high as this one.

I previously was using a ten year old push mower that had just gotten too dull to do a good job on the lawn.   In fact last year it ripped up our sod because it was so dull.

I would recommend this Scotts push mower to those who have a small lawn, like the idea of not adding to noise and pollution and who don't think their lawn needs to look like the greens at Torrey Pine.
