Scotts classic reel mower user manual. The main issue is that if it is too tall the mower doesn't catch it just so, and as a result you will get tall stragglers in a less than perfect yard like mine.That. It has done well, but it does not like tall weeds like dandelion, though if you hit them right it will cut. Bought this mower knowing the yard in the house I rent is more like a weed patch than an actual yard: the ground is rough, and instead of grass I have patches of weeds here and there. That being said, the mower wasn't recommended for my type of yard, but I bought it anyway cause I hate recurring charges (gasoline, oil, etc.)This little mower has performed surprisingly well despite all I have thrown at it: little sticks are the achilles heel of the little device, but that's already been said.
