Reel mowers are a type of lawn mower that uses a set of rotating blades to cut grass. They operate on a simple mechanism where the blades spin vertically, slicing the grass like scissors. This design is eco-friendly, as it doesn't require fuel or electricity, making it a quiet and low-maintenance option for homeowners. These mowers are best suited for small to medium-sized lawns with even terrain. They provide a clean cut, promoting healthier grass growth. Popular among environmentally conscious gardeners, reel mowers are often made from durable materials and can last for many years with proper care.
