does it cut wet grass

I avoid using it on wet grass, doesn't work well and I am already dealing with lumps and bumps. I have been very pleased with the Fiskars. Does what it says it will and I actually enjoy using it.

The manual says not to use it on wet grass due to rusting. I too love the mower.

Damp yes but not sure about wet as I never mow when its wet. Over all for the money I am pleased with it and enjoy not having to buy gas & oil etc.

I believe so, but I don't think you are supposed to get the blades on the mower wet. I love the mower.

Yes, but only if the grass you have to cut is fairly short. The wetness will make the grass a little more likely to slide through the blades, but length is the more important factor. This mower is excellent if you mow often so you are not cutting too much. And as the other commenters mentioned, make sure you dry off the mower--but that applies to gas or electric mowers also. Metal rusts.

Not on my mower - the normal blade cuts up grass and leaves like they are a jar of herbs and the bagger sucks it up. Just unreal. I still love this bagger! Think it is probably about the best money I ever spent!

I don't think so. I tried to get it to shred very dry long strands of Bermuda grass (that I had weeded out of some mulched areas) and it just sort of wrapped around the blades and stalled it out. Even when the blades are completely sharp, it would do that.

I don't know about turf grass but I tried cutting some overgrown, thick regular grass and it was like cutting a tough piece of meat with a butter knife.

It can if you cut your grass too deep. Set the cutting height to only cut about 1/2 inch off the length of the blades of grass each time you mow and the grass will work its way back into the soil. Longer cuts will lay on top of the grass and make it harder for you to mow. When my grass is too high due to too much rain before being able to be cut, I use the grass catcher and empty it in a mulch pile I have. I love my Fiskars mower, quiet, easy to push, gives me a quick work out.

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

Yes it does!!!! But I would go slow so you make sure the blade stays on the grass side.

It's electric so I wouldn't use it on damp grass at all. I don't think electric mowers are as powerful as gas mowers so even if you mowed damp grass it might not cut that well. I have a tiny front yard. It's lightweight and effective for me. A larger yard would require a gas mower. Or a landscaper.

It actually does cut a 22 inch path. And it does it real well on weeds and tall grass.

It works fine. I have small lawn. You have to be careful of the cord. Cuts great.

When I use a bag it works pretty well. The grass needs to be fairly dry because the mower is not as powerful as a gas powered mower. At any rate I cut high and rarely use the bag. Sometimes I have to rake a bit but I have chickens and they love fresh cut grass. The rest of the grass clippings feed the lawn.

Yes it will just the same as if it were grass. This blade will cut your grass very low and do a fairly good job of getting the moss too.

We haven't had any problems with it clogging up. But I can't say that it wouldn't. I would guess that if you were trying to cut tall, wet grass, that might be a possibility. We have zoysia grass and haven't had any clogging issues at all. We don't cut the grass really short and it's dry when we cut it.

Yes. Obviously it works better on dry leaves but it works pretty well with wet ones too.

It can and I use it to cut my fescue, but I wouldn't recommend it for that, especially if the grass is longer.

If it's wet outside then no way...short dry grass for short distances would probably be ok, but I would probably get a different tool if I was doing lots of this sort of thing.
