I could not be happier with the way this mower is my old reel mower used to though the cuttings under the catcher even after adjusting the deflector this one right in the middle. Very easy to maneuver the mower cut of grass is better than my old mower which was a mow master commercial mower. Maintenance is easy i got the HONDA motor can not be happier

Cuts ok when reel is sharp have to sharpen reel every 5 mows though the reel doesn't stop spinning also when it is at idle so it's still cutting the grass whats allready been mowed on the slightest slope the left hand side digs in the turf and really scarfs my lawn so dam annoying never buy another one didn't do enough research
