Fiskars StaySharp Reel Mower

The mower uses a touchless cutting system where the reel blades pass close to the stationary blade without making physical contact. This reduces friction and wear, which is why the blades stay sharp significantly longer than traditional reel mowers and don't require annual sharpening.

Not at all. The InertiaDrive reel system is engineered to provide more cutting power and momentum, making it easier to push through thick grass than standard reel mowers. While it requires more physical effort than a self-propelled gas mower, it is designed for a smooth, consistent glide.

Yes, it is designed to handle a variety of grass types, including tougher varieties. However, because it is a manual reel mower, it performs best when you mow regularly rather than letting the grass grow excessively long.

Maintenance is minimal. Since there is no engine, you don't need to worry about oil changes, spark plugs, or fuel. Simply keep the blades clean of debris and store the mower in a dry place to prevent rust.

The Fiskars StaySharp features a 17-inch cutting width. This size offers a good balance between maneuverability in tighter garden spaces and efficiency for covering smaller to medium-sized lawns.
