American Lawn Mower Company 1705-16  16" Bent Reel Mower

American Lawn Mower Company 1705-16 16" Bent Reel Mower

American Lawn Mower's 16-inch bent reel mower is efficient and effective--no unnecessary attachments, no fancy gewgaws, just a serious blade-and-reel unit of tempered alloy steel with a few height adjustments for different levels of grass. The knife blades are sharp and strong, and, though the mower is light enough to carry, it's got enough heft for proper traction on slick grass. Assembly doesn't take long--10 or 15 minutes is about all. The handle cushions are cushier than on some other models and especially easy to put on--unfortunately, they come off as easily as they go on.

  • Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full Posted: August 2 2010 review from Amazon User
    Pros & Cons :
    i had been using a push reel mower for over five years and was well satisfied, then i decided to take advantage of the bermuda grass that had established itself in my yard and mow it very low.

    7 blades makes a difference

  • Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Full Posted: July 4 2010 review from Amazon User
    Pros & Cons :
    directions that came with the machine indicate that with reasonable care, the blades should retain sharpness for several seasons, and then you can just run down to the car parts place for some valve lapping compound, and sharpen them yourself.

    Great little mower--getcherself one!

    ...It is easier if you have a helper when you are positioning the handle on the mower base because you have to do that first before you can tighten up the bolts that hold the handle together (despite ... read more

    Pros & Cons :
    i think it's great entertainment to watch the tiny slivers of grass fly out the back as i'm pushing along.

    ...Mine has gotten stuck on twigs about the width of a USB cable. It helps a lot if I rake the area before I mow, but if it does happen all you have to do is move the reel back a little and pull the ... read more
