DuroStar DS1600GC Replacement Push Reel Mower Grass Catcher

I've been using this on my St. Augustine grass. For what it is, it does a pretty decent job. I go over each spot twice to get a clean cut.Quick gotchas:- It's loud. Not as loud as a motor, but if you think this thing is quiet.. think again.- The net in the back is meant to catch the cut grass. It catches about 5% of what you cut. Prepare to rake the rest or use a leaf blower to clean up the cut blades of grass.- It stalls in thick and longer grass, especially at edges. I mean, it just won't turn.. no matter how hard you push or how strong you are.In short, this isn't meant for heavy duty.. but will do just fine for small and well maintained lawns.

Wide enough lite enough and cheap enough equal a great buy.

Harder to cut tall grass and won’t cut weeds but is perfect for maintaining a shorter lawn. Easy to push and was not very hard to assemble.

Hard to get adjusted so it will cut. I am 5’5” and it feels small and is hard to push. It could definitely use better directions on how to adjust the reel and a longer handle. I had to google/YouTube other brands to try and figure out how to adjust the blades so they actually cut. The padding on the handle is already torn from 1 use.

Is made for postage stamp yards,if have a few hundred Sq ft.. with areas in 1000+ ft go for a larger heavier duty model , many different old school models to choose from.

Doesn’t fit very well and not a real good fabric

Quick delivery, all was as it should be in the package. Quick, easy assembly. Well constructed. Assembled it in about 10 minutes. Adjusted height and cut front & back yards (both St Augustine). BTW temp is 96F.Cuts clean and even over rough terrain. Smooth and easy to push. Cuts well even at slow walking pace. Definitely a keeper. Much lighter than my 1946 STAR reel mower and cuts just as nice. Highly recommended.

This thing is great!!! I moved into my rental home about 2 weeks ago. My front yard was pretty high, and this cut it with some elbow grease. I went over shorter grass in the back and it was a breeze!!! Four stars instead of 5 because it doesn't cut the thicker weed type grass, and it gets sticks caught. But that is probably because it's this type of mower. i have never used one like this, so have nothing to compare. I pulled the thicker stuff by hand and my yard looks great. I also did 4 because when I debated between this and another I choose this because I felt the weaker height adjustments were better than the loudness of the other brand. I saw youTube of the other brand, but could find none of this. The height adjusters are thin like I knew, but this mower is noisy as well. No big deal. I love it. Great exercise, too. Many people stopped me saying they didn't know you could still buy these. Lol. One guy even gace me his yard guys info thinking I was not going to have good luck. They came over after and said my yard looked great. Such a great price to help the environment, and get some extra cardio while I do chores!

I have a small-ish yard and nowhere to store a gas lawnmower. I tried out this little demon and it worked (almsot) perfectly! I mowed yesterday and while there are some stragglers this morning (weeds), I'm still happy overall.

It works perfect and good product quality. Only the assembly instructions is not clear, but you can still assemble it within 10 minutes.

It does the job. Easy to assemble and super light weight

Excelente producto cumplió con mis expectativas

Great mower. Easy to use
