Also, if your lawn is not too huge, you can try out a spindle (mechanical) mower. They are much easier to push than I imagined and give a very clean cut since they work like scissors and don't just chop the grass off.
- rootusrootus 5y agoDo you mean reel mower? Those are pretty great, but they do need to be kept in good repair, clean, lubricated, and blades sharp. And you have to cut often enough so the grass doesn't get too tall. But for a small city lot they're pretty neat. We had one when I was growing up, but it was none of those things so it was mostly a great big PITA ;).
- captainmuon 5y agoYeah that's the right English term, thanks. I now have a modern, new one and it works much better than I remember them from my childhood. But you're right about the downsides, I occasionally have to use the electric mower when the grass becomes too tall.
