Silver Cymbal, yes. This is a much better version! Thanks for looking out for your viewers! 😉

@@usahome Thank you very much I appreciate that!

That is such a nice comment, thank you very much I appreciate that. I always try to listen to my viewers since you guys know as much or MORE than I do. My job is to try to put it together to make it interesting to watch. Thanks again

Hope you enjoy it!

Geting into reel mowing can be a ot of fun and nice experience compared to other machines. Glad you took the plunge!

Not for me, I tried that once and pretty much scalped the whole lawn. Maybe it works in some situations but I wouldn't recommend it.

@@SilverCymbal I was afraid of that.

Today I agree, Swardman is no longer the company they were when I made this, CEO/founder is long gone. Allett is the way to go now, they have dealers across the US

@@SilverCymbal Yes the Allett is a great machine, Not many people have heard of it. I think you have covered it in a video once. A Great British machine. we don't have to water the lawn as much over here, the rain does it all for you, Haha

Thank you very nuch

Hi there thank you, so my Swardman story has ended for now. I have moved onto my Allett reel mowing system and love it so far. The Swardman is a nice machine but the company has some challenges, they didn't establish local dealers and the founder and CEO was fired, according to his own account last year. If you have one and love it, then enjoy it but if I was buying a new one I would buy the English made Allett. There company has been around for 50 years and their machines are much less expensive and I like the build quality better.

@@SilverCymbal I almost ordered Swardman's reel mower but now I do not know if it would be proper decision. Maybe I will get ALLETT KENSINGTON 20 B.

@@oqlar If I was buying one right now, I would get an Allett.

You can cut at just over 2" which is very nice for flexibility

They are actually both very nice machines and I like them both. I was SURE the gas would have more power but they really are both the same power. The battery is nice for no noise but if you are worried about getting enough horsepower with the battery don't be. Watch for a new video too soon showing it doing some more jobs.

YEAH...PRETTY STEEP...YOU CAN GET A RIDE ON....I DO LIKE IT THOUGH

It's hard to justify no matter how large

I was very skeptical this would work and was very impressed. Usually mu kids stomp all over the cores until it looks like pancakes all mashed into my lawn

And lots of nutrients in those cores. Great way to keep them in the lawn!

@Duke Of Prunes I'm with you. Doing that at home is not really needed so don't feel bad, You dont' have 1000s of feet walking on the same 100 sqft each day. Some golf course stuff is good but a lot of i is due to the traffic they have.

@@usahome Great point!

I really appreciate that I added a little more safety info that should have been included.

That's true and Hondas are great. But it's not the same. The Honda doesn't cut low very well and it doesn't do anything except mow.

I thought the same but I have now had this engine on a few machines and its much better than I had expected. Also check out their battery unit too for something very different and quite cool!

I have a cheap Walmart bought lawnmower with a b&s engine and have had it 13 years with little maintenance. Think it's got one oil change. Runs good. 3 squirts and one pull.

This is still an expensive mower but a lot less than the Swardman kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z62qp9ej05-0YJc.html

Don't group me as a product reviewer with lawn channels peddling their own products promising super results. This is why I have stayed with products that I use and work and resisted creating my own. When all your channel does it lawn care you have to milk your audience, I don't.
