Hello again,
Today I am thankful for reel mowers. There are a few reasons for this. The first is that they are environmentally friendly because they have no motor-you are the motor. lol Secondly, they provide a good work out because you are doing alot more work and exercise is very good. We have one and I have started using it for small spurts to get some exercise and also hopefully gain some strength back into my back and arms by pushing it. Yet at the pace I go, it could take weeks to get our lawns done. lol We have 2 lawns and both are fairly large. I know I only managed to go for a few minutes but I enjoy feeling like I have accomplished something and the feeling that I got some exercise. I am just hoping that I don't regret it tomorrow, that I am really sore or something. For most people, it is a good workout and environmentally friendly. We all need exercise and it is good to be "green" so you can't go wrong! If you are concerned about time-I think it doesn't really take much longer than a gas push mower but is alot better workout. :) Though I could be wrong-it has been years since I operated a push mower. We have used a tractor to mow our lawns for some time now because of the amount of lawn we have. It can take close to 1hr on the tractor going at a considerable speed to get the lawns done. For us, using only a reel mower for the entire lawn may not be practical but we can definitely use it for a portion of it. So this is why I am thankful for reel mowers. :)
