How are you guys mowing around it?

We simply pick it up and move it. I lift one side, and either my 2 daughters (age 8 & 11) or my teenage son lifts the other side.

I love this tool, but it is not my first choice for the grass problem you describe. Those grass roots radiate about 5 inches out from the clump, and you will have to cut through those roots all the way around and underneath the clump to get them out. A tool like a heavy duty serrated knife works better -- and much faster.

It handles them just fine. I have steep landscaping on both sides of my house. Just be careful and mow straight up and down until you get a feel for the mower. If you decide you can mow safely sideways try it with the blades off first.

Thats hard to say.....if its at its highest your going to have to mow quite frequently because it does leave it pretty high. If u put it at its lowest you can hardly muster up the strength to push it. I like ours set in the middle and it works dandy.

Not bad at all. My front yard was apparently created some 40 years ago by some guy with a dump truck dumping a load of dirt, some other guy indifferently raking the dirt around, years of moles, city work crews and time digging, slumping, and in general just creating a semi-natural mess. Heck, it even included, at one time, for its careful leveling neighbors who invited their drunk friends over to drive on it (a time thankfully passed--Good Neighbors, now). So, my front yard is NOT "even ground". I like how the mower works on it. YMMV, but then I don't know how you want your lawn to look after mowing. Mine will never look like a putting green, but I neither expect or want it to.

It is chopped up and falls to the ground right where the front leg/bar is in the picture.. I thought about using plastic drop cloth to catch it and then spead the mulch around in my flowerbeds. I currently scoup it up and place it in a wheel barrel.

Honestly not sure. I just cut the grass if it is to high I have to go over the area a couple of times. Lol at the moment I have well maintain weeds. In areas where there is actual grass it guy very nicely

yes but the stripping isnt as good as it is in grass. I don't think it messes up the mower

I have used it, and still using it! It works great! I use it for plowing so I would say it gets used a lot, never had any issues with it!

Not really, what I did was mount it under my normal blade and used one of the washers that fit the hole then tightened it up with the large washer over it. I didn't seem to move and I think it helped bag more of the dead grass.

Mine is on its third year. I used to be able to mow the entire lawn with it, but now it's getting me only 1/2 to 2/3 of the way.

I hope not. I'm still working to get all my weeding done so I can put the ground cloth down. I will post something once the wet weather gets here so I know.

I've let my lawn get to about 6 inches and it struggles a bit. I mulch not bag but you really can't let it get long. The mower isn't as powerful as a gas one. It's best for a small to mid size lawn that is mowed very regularly.

I personally feel its easier to hold a small lenght of the wire that is closer the mower in hand along with the mower handle. This also ensure the wire did not lay in the mowing area and get cut by the mower blades. Note that you have to buy the extension cord for this mower.

have not tried that yet, good on leaves in tight garden spots. Id say get a regular rake for grass.

I use the electric motor attachment. That frees my hands up to cut the larger tomatoes into pieces that will fit down the throat of the hopper. Otherwise, I would either have to repeatedly dry my hands off or let the manual handle get all messy and hard to grip. The motor probably cranks faster than I could by hand anyway. At my age, too, it's nice to let a motor do the work!

I have a Scotts John Deere mower with a double grass catcher on the back. I did not buy anything extra. I just took the two bags off and put the opening of the leaf bag over the frame and cinched it up. It has a double cinching cord and a quick release for when you are taking it off.
