Reel Mowers: A Smart Choice for Your Lawn, Your Health, Your Budget and the Environment

Reel mowers promote greener, healthier lawns by cutting each blade of grass cleanly with a scissors-like action, minimizing moisture loss and exposure to disease
Conversely, gasoline and electric mowers stress grass by cutting with a tearing action that can leave a jagged tip and make grass susceptible to drying and disease
Reel mowers also eliminate soil and groundwater pollution caused by gasoline spills and accidental damage caused by dragging electrical cords

Reel mowers let you cut your grass without exposure to noxious exhaust gases, loud noises, uncomfortable vibrations or the hazards of power-driven rotary blades – including serious injury and damage caused by thrown rocks
Reel mowers also eliminate the risks associated with storing and handling the gasoline and oil and mowing around electrical cords

Reel mowers cost nothing to operate — there is no gasoline, oil, electricity, spark plugs or air filters to purchase
Reel mowers require far less maintenance than gasoline and electric mowers

Reel mowers are the most eco-friendly way to cut your grass
Gasoline mowers produce exhaust and evaporative emissions that pollute the air
Handling gasoline often leads to spill which cause soil and groundwater pollution
Electric and battery mowers, while more eco-friendly than gas mowers, still cause pollution — not in your backyard, but at the power plants that produce the electricity on which the mowers run
