   … buy this product because there was a lot of bad reviews about this
   I was worried to buy this product because there was a lot of bad reviews about this. My review maybe little premature since I just got this unit and only used it once. And I will update if I change my mind later but this thing works as expected and accomplishes a good job for small grass yard I have. Assembly is easy enough and mowing process is fairly simple. However it does require some power behind pushing especially at the initial push of each time. I would say this will be a good, light workout. Once it goes, It goes fairly well from one end to the other. While you cannot really turn it well to go different direction. Also when you are an uneven ground or if ground is slippery, the wheel might not catch on very well. On those spots, you just have to go back little bit and start their like you would with the mud or snow when driving. At the end of the day, this is manual push unit and you should not expect this to behave like motorized one. Only thing I’m not super happy about is the fact the grass flies around everywhere during cutting process and it does not really fall in the bag. What’s the product video on this and you will see it’s flying around and that’s exactly what you got. There are times when Wheels get stuck. I had it one stop by little cable ties That was laying on the ground. The other time it was just a ball of mud. So you just reverse the blade little bit and shake the machine for mud to fall off then you go ahead again. Most of negative stuff I mentioned here are things that I expected from manual mowing unit and I think those are reasonable, expected downside, that’s why I give this a full five star.

   Great Value, Average Build Quality
   I originally got an American Lawn Mower Company 14″ reel mower, but wanted to get something that was larger and overall I’m pleased with this. Some notes below:
   +This was by far the most cost effective option I could find for the size
   +Grass catcher included is extremely beneficial and has worked well
   +One of the largest manual reel mower sizes you can find
   -After a few uses it started to squeak and creak a little bit when moving forwards slowly. This hasn’t impacted performance, but is my reason for the 4 stars in lieu of 5.

   A Lawn Mower That Does NOT Cut Grass
   (20150428) When I was growing up in the 1960s, we owned these types of lawn mowers. I remember my grandfather fixing one when he came to the USA for the first time in about 40 years. My mother was frantic that she was out of cooking oil. Anyway, they worked extremely well in the environment that I live in and am using this Sun Joe Mow Joe MJ501M in. That’s why I purchased this type of lawn mower. I liked the idea of no gas, oil, or pull ropes breaking. Absolutely beautiful looking machine; very easy to assemble; very easy to use; extremely easy to follow instruction book… BUT this lawn mower, to my utter surprise, does not cut grass! I was able to use one of these just fine at the age of five, but not this one in my 50s! The blades roll like there’s no tomorrow, and yet it only flattens down the grass. I did the paper cut test, and it passed with flying colors. I checked to see if the blades were too loose or too tight; no adjustment needed. I adjusted the height of the cut; no change. It won’t cut high grass; it won’t cut low grass; it won’t cut anything but loose foxtails that fall off the stem just by blowing them with my mouth. Awaiting advice from customer service. I have videos, but no pictures. If anyone has any advice on how to get this thing to cut grass “PLEASE!!!” let me know.
   (20150430) Spoke to Sun Joe’s customer service, and they are making an even exchange, even paying for return shipping. Very impressed with the company. Hopefully, this was just a single defective product. We’ll see when I get the new one.
   (20150507) Received 20-Inch MRM (MJ502M instead of MJ501M). It works better in that it cuts grass… some, but still not what I remember when manual lawn mower handles were higher than the top of my five year old head. I still give this only one star because if the handles reached above my head five decades ago and cut this type of grass which was as high as my ankles back then, more modern versions should be able to cut just as well if not better.

   I’m so happy with it
   It was simple instructions to set up
   It cuts perfectly have a small yard so don’t need a big one
   If you cut the grass once a week you will be fine
   If it’s longer you need more effort and may take a few passes

   Lo recomiendo, la podadora manual con la bolsa ( es muy util ) de 20 pulgadas, el pasto lo deja bonito, no lo estresa, como si lo hace una desbrosadora que he observado que lo quema.
   Compren la podadora con la bolsa es sumamente útil, Se vaN ahorrar tiempo en levantar el pasto cortado, una amiga la uso y se va a comprar una de 16 pulgadas.
   Saludos desde la CDMX.

   Paso mis dedos sobre las cuchillas según que muy afiladas y no me hacen corte alguno a mis dedos. Exigo que me devuelvan mi dinero o que me envíen las cuchillas correctas y bien afiladas. O su plan es que nosotros le saquemos filo a las barras???
   Que decepción con su empresa. Creí que eran más serios y responsables en cada uno de sus equipos.
   No corta ni los pedazos de papel que mandan de muestra, mi familia solo se burló de la compra tan mal invertida que hice.
   Enserio necesito solución a esto, quiero mi dinero o envíen las cuchillas afiladas correctas…

   I really like this mower. It is well built from quality materials.
   Pros:
   Environmentally friendly
   Quality materials so you don’t have to fight with the mechanisms.
   Easy to assemble
   The clipping bag works well
   Cons:
   Does require effort but nothing too strenuous
   Now this is not like a powered mower. It does not have motorized wheels to pull it along. It does require some effort to use but I like using it and I hated mowing my lawn before.
   I am also a 5’4” average-strength woman. I find this mower easy to use.
   I have a 40’ by 30’ back yard with a little bit of grass on the sides of the house and it takes maybe 30-45 minutes by the time I wrestle it out of my over-packed shed, mow and put it back. My lawn is 5 years old in a new neighbourhood so my landscaping is new and smooth with the appropriate drainage sloping required by the city. It mows the slopes (15 degrees max.) pretty good.
   It does an ok job along the fence however I still need to use the weed-whacker to trim up the areas along the fence, deck and garden. More than with my old gas powered mower.
   It does an ok job at mowing over dandelions hower with the thicker stalked weeds you do need to go ever the area a few times or just pull them out by hand.
   The grass clipping basket works better than I thought it would. I was impressed with how much grass it caught and I do use it more than I thought I would.
   This mower was a little harder to use when I first purchased it however after about 3 uses it broke in nicely and is easier to push.
   It stopped working the second time I used it however a little clump or hard dirt got jammed between the blades and the guard on the back so I put on some leather gloves, spun the blade the other way and it came out. It worked perfect after that.
   It works pretty good on grass that is 4” tall. I have it set to the lowest setting. Sometime if there is too mch grass clipping on top of the reel it will not properly cut the lawn but I brush it off and it works good. Be careful though, the blades are sharp.
   I really like this mower. I have used it for two months now (June and July). And I do recommend it.
