Title: It worked acceptably for a while
Product review: I purchased this mower last summer to mow my roughly 40'x40' backyard. The mower did a respectable job for about a month, and then sheared the teeth off the drive gear on the right wheel. I continued to use the mower until this afternoon, when the left drive gear failed. Now when I push the mower forward, the reel doesn't spin. This mower may be acceptable for very light duty mowing, but the internal gears are made of soft plastic, and I managed to destroy both of them in about 4 months of use.Also, as others have noted, you must mow 1-2 times a week. If you let it go more than that, you will have to rent a gas mower to trim the grass, because the reel mower will not do the job.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
