Reel Benefits for Real People

Reel mowers are a simple, clean alternative to mowing with loud, messy small engine mowers. With this traditional method, it's not about horsepower, it's about people power. Reel mowers, sometimes called push mowers, benefit you and the earth in many ways, some of which are described in this article. Stand Up for the Environment Reel mowers help you reduce your carbon footprint. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), one hour of mowing with a small engine mower emits as much pollution as driving in your car for 50 miles. With reel mowers, the only footprint you have to worry about is the one you make with your shoe.

Small and Mighty Efficient

Reel mowers hang on a hook in your garage and they save you money on gas and maintenance. You save money at the gym too: reel lawn mowers aren't any heavier to push but you'll spend about 50% more time pushing it. It's a healthy workout in sunshine and fresh air.

A Cleaner Better Way to Mow

Your reel lawn mower cuts grass with a scissor-like action rather than tearing and ripping it as rotary blades do. The small snips of grass are evenly distributed and make wonderful mulch for your lawn. The whole process is quiet, clean, and much better for your grass.

An Easy Way to Simplify Your Life

Reel mowers smell only of cut grass and your garage will be free of gas spills. There is almost no maintenance when it comes to reel mowers. Just keep it clean and aligned and it will keep you and your lawn happy and healthy for years to come.

How satisfying to use a simple, clean method in place of the messy, noisy, dirty one we've somehow come to accept as the norm. The benefits of a reel lawn mower are many, so how soon are you going to start enjoying them?
