I give the mower 4 stars because it basically cuts well, as long as the grass is not too high. I ordered the pot to which I have however used only once, because it means that you can not pull the mower back. Also the 180 ° turn, making it more cumbersome. Since the grass in this type mowers cut evenly, and is not thrown as rotary mowers on a pile, but it falls not on basically, if you can be the green waste. The famous "tracks" of rotary mowers naturally arise not with a reel mower. Otherwise, the collector is not so bad, it can be hung easily and so on, but it brings with it everything is nothing if it significantly worsened the easy handling. But the star trigger I do not give because the collection basket, which anyway is not indeed part of this product, but due to the fact that the linkage is not height adjustable. I'm about 1,88m tall and for me would have to handle actually be a few centimeters longer. Especially when it comes a little downhill which is quite cumbersome. Oddly, I'm apparently the only one with the problem. For people around the 1.75m the handle is probably appropriate. He also cuts unfortunately no dandelions, but pushes it just floored. This looks ultimately worse than if you had the dandelion not touched ...
Conclusion: Smooth cylinder mower with good results in the actual mowing. However, it is quite difficult to move if you do not mow the lawn every week. The grass box and unfortunately I can not recommend the linkage is not height adjustable and therefore a bit disturbing for small or large people. In addition, it is not suitable for meadows with much dandelion.
Update: Now that I have found that my mower I have cut out of paper in the factory setting is concerned myself with readjust the mower. It has struck me that one should not be adjusted with the enclosed metal strips. If one of the mower in such a way as described in the statement he is cut out of paper. Since the actually should be the goal, I have the knife precisely adjusted so that minimal is air between the spindle and knife. Namely, as much that the spindle the knife does not touch audible. The perfect setting One simply has to grope slowly. Now the distance between the blade and the spindle is thus still less than the sheet thickness and now the mowers also intersects paper. At least if you do not move the spindle in slow motion ... The mowing has subsequently also works very well. I am of the opinion that it set after the long blades of grass rather cut than before.
