Review of the Mascot 18 inch Lawn Reel Mower

The Mascot or Silent Cut lawn reel mower is American designed and engineered. This lawn reel mower was manufactured overseas under strict standards of the Amish suppliers but in my book still has that made in America genuine quality. In the Amish shop they personally sharpen, lubricate and adjust each lawn reel mower before shipping. They do manufacture frames to make 3 gang reel mowers that can be pulled by horses.

A couple of things that I know about the Amish is their passion for hand made quality in machinery and furniture. This still exists today. The other thing is that in the Amish community it is up to the woman of the house to keep up the standards of the house and yard.

The Mascot lawn reel mower being ten pounds heaver then most of the lawn reel mowers of today favored by the Amish to be operated by a woman. This mower is designed with new technology as it is called the Silent Cut. This makes this push reel mower very easy to push.

I also like how the wheels were designed a little wider then most lawn reel mowers. This helps with traction and helps to hold the compaction down to a minimum. This more true when you are cutting wet grass which it does very well.

The roller on the back is made of a single piece ploy with rounded ends to prevent grooving. I like the way it stripes the grass as I mow.

I have read that this lawn reel mower works well on Bermuda or St Augustine with its 6 blade reel. This lawn mower does an excellent job of cutting Blue grass and Rye grasses.
