American Lawn Mower 1204-14 Review


American Lawn Mower 1204-14 Review by Matthew Goodman "Heliograph, Inc" (Somerville, MA United States)

As one of the other reviewers said, the weak spot is the handle. It's tube aluminum, I bent both handles forward when I was mowing and it's no longer usable. I got it second hand from a friend for free, so the price was right, but I'd never spend my own money on one. The next model up from the same company looks like a better design: the handle looks less bendy, anyway.


American Lawn Mower 1204-14 Review by S. Wright "Old and Tired" (Alexandria, VA)

I almost didn't buy a reel mower after reading reviews here, but my lawn is so small that I thought a power mower (besides a waste of $$), would rip up the ground.

It was easy to assemble, but I am still confused as to the purpose of the screws to adjust the blades closeness to the back plate. I just left them alone and the mower seems to cut fine. My first try was in new sod, layed 2 weeks ago. The grass was about 4 inches and it was a struggle to get started. I readjusted the mower to its highest setting. Once I got momentum, the mower really sung through the grass. Unlike a power mower, you kind of need a running start, so small patches in awkward areas will have to be cut with a weed eater. If I wasn't going fast enough, small sticks would stop the mower. But when I saw the sticks ahead of time, I could give the mower an extra push and it would snap them in pieces. Luckily, my grass is not under a tree, otherwise that might be a royal pain.

I think I will have to mow once a week to keep it manageable. I can easily see how tall grass would be impossible with a push mower, but I think I could get it through grass under 5 inches ok. It was a workout, but it is very light and stores well. I think it was worth the purchase.

Home Depot sells this mower for $73 if you want to try it, knowing you can return it easily if it doesn't suit you.

This was one of the best purchases I've made in a long time. It was easy to put together, just make sure that if you have small hands like me you get someone to really tighten the bolts good though. It's light, cuts grass like a dream, however it doesn't edge. Also it's a nice little workout, and it's easy to store. I'm diabetic and since using this. I've had to lower my insulin intake. So I highly reccomend this to anyone who wants a little cardio workout.
