Took it for a test drive! It really works well! I have always used push mowers, but was getting tired of sharpening the blades, and having to go back over the same area multiple times to get a close cut without jamming. This model doesn't have the blades hit a stationary bar, so they stay sharp much longer. It has a flywheel mechanism - pushing the mower spins the blades - and the spin rate increases as you keep pushing it - so you can hit the tall weeds with spinning blades which cut them down nicely.

Now to name it ..... [I name all my gadgets]
