The Clipper Push Reel Lawn Mower is a top-quality, hand-push reel mower built in the USA with commercial-grade materials for long-lasting performance. Designed for homeowners with small to midsize lawns—or anyone seeking a quiet, eco-friendly alternative to noisy gas or electric mowers—this mower delivers a clean, scissor-like cut that promotes healthy grass and reduces turf stress.
Why choose the Clipper Push Reel Mower?
-
Quiet, fuel-free mowing: No gas, no oil, no cords — just human-powered mowing with zero emissions, minimal maintenance, and near-silent operation.
-
Precision cut for healthier lawns: The six-blade reel and adjustable cutting height (in ¼" increments) produce a smooth, even cut — often superior to rotary mowers, especially for fine lawns or warm-season grasses that benefit from shorter, cleaner trimming.
-
Compact storage & easy maneuvering: The ergonomic solid handle, hardened bearings, and old-fashioned roller wheels make the mower easy to push and maneuver. It stores neatly — even on a wall — saving valuable garage or shed space.
-
Durable, built to last: Heavy-duty steel roller brackets, hardened blades, and robust build ensure decades of dependable service — backed by our 10-year warranty and proud “Made in USA” heritage.
-
Ideal for small yards and sustainable living: If you have a modest lawn, want to reduce noise and emissions, or live in an area where gas mowers are restricted, the Clipper reel mower offers a practical, low-maintenance, and environmentally friendly solution.
Cut width options & ordering: Choose from 17", 19", or 21" cutting widths to suit your lawn size and mowing preferences. All models ship via flat rate anywhere in the continental USA. The price above reflects the 17”; select other sizes below using the drop-down box. The additional sizes will incrementally add to the price of the 17”.
Maintenance & care tips: For optimal performance, sharpen blades annually (or as needed), store them in a dry place, and adjust blade clearance as necessary to maintain a clean, precise cut. With minimal maintenance and zero fuel costs, this mower is as much about long-term value as it is about performance.

All three Amish reel mower companies offer heavy-duty reel push mowers that are significantly higher in quality than the average reel mowers sold in hardware and home improvement stores.
The Clipper Reel Mower is the Cadillac-Mercedes of reel mowers. It is all USA-made by the Amish using USA-made parts. The reel has riveted blades, and the bed-knife is higher-quality US steel, extra-tempered for the longest cutting sharpness. The Bed-Knife and spiral reels were patterned from the vintage Scotts Silent mowers. It is also the most expensive reel mower. Despite the price, it is also the most popular among the Amish and non-Amish. Clipper is our best seller.
Mascot Silent Reel Mowers use all imported parts and are assembled overseas. It is strictly quality-controlled by an Amish company that personally inspects, sharpens, and tunes each one before it ships to a customer. The Amish company developed it from the vintage Scotts Silent mowers. Many of the parts will interchange with the old Scott mowers. It is a popular mower, with high satisfaction among both Amish and non-Amish who are looking for long-term durability and performance. We received numerous calls asking why we did not carry Mascot Mowers, so we decided to review them and were pleasantly surprised by what we found. We categorize it as a Buick of reel mowers, and it is priced in the mid-range of Amish reel mowers.

A note on returns: Reel mowers are not for everyone, as they require a good physical workout.
We offer a 30-day return policy on our products. Realizing that no one has ever returned a Clipper Reel mower, and that if one were returned, it would be resold to another customer, they will expect a discount for its use and return. Thus, a 25% restocking fee would need to be discounted from any refunds for a return.
Push Reel Lawn Mower Maintenance (USA Clipper)
Caution: blades and the bedknife are very sharp. Although we demonstrate in the video taking a bare hand across the blades, we are being careful not to run our fingers on the edges of the blades or to place our fingers near the bednife and the reel cage when spinning. Note: The ultimate test of proper adjustment of the bednife is to use strips of paper. Although the mower may seem stiff out of the box, the bedknife may be appropriately set as shown in the video. This is where many feel that it is too tight and begin adjusting without doing the paper test, only to become frustrated with poor performance. New mowers will loosen up over time, and the bednife will need to be checked with the strips of paper and adjusted accordingly before each season.

I ordered online on a Thursday and on Saturday it was delivered.
Assembly was straightforward and took me about 20 minutes. I did it myself and it was pretty intuitive (but pay attention to what it says on the webpage about attaching the handle to the push bar!).
I loosened the nuts to make the height adjustment and immediately cut my lawn at the highest setting. I had cut it 5 days before with my Honda mower so the growth was maybe 1/2" that I removed. My grass is Zoysia.
The mower performed flawlessly and it took about the same time as with my gas mower. I cut between 5-6,000 square feet so my lawn is a modest lawn. I will say that it was a bit of a workout at the end (for the record I am a relatively fit male in my mid-60's. I imagine that the conditioning will improve but I could see where this mower maybe too heavy for some younger people or senior citizens who are not physically fit).
At the end of the day, it is a nice feeling to have something that is manufactured in the USA. This thing is heavy duty and I am sure that it will be something that I will never hav to replace. The feeling of owning quality tools is something that is of value to me. I also love the fact that I can now cut my grass early in the morning without disturbing the neighbors. Hope this review is of value to you if you are considering this item.

I have been using the Fiskars Stay sharp Max for the last 4 years, I believed it worked great for a while until the last few years where I have been experiencing poor cut quality, jamming up during mowing and rusting in spots. It was getting to hard to mow my lawn, I decided to try and find a better product. Unfortunately if you google reel mower you get the usual suspects, some brands even made by the same company and all made somewhere else besides the USA. I finally stumbled across the Clipper USA mower and though initially stunned at the much higher the price point I was intrigued, unfortunately I had a hard time finding too many reviews about this mower, I decided to give Paul a call at Cottage Craft Works where he answered my questions and made me feel a bit more comfortable about making the purchase. I decided to upgrade the tires to the larger 9 5/8” and went with the 21” reel mower version. 2 days later this beast of a mower arrived at my home in NJ, after a little time putting it together and making all the necessary adjustments I was ready to give it a try. Wow! Is all I can say, the Clipper USA was so much easier to use than my Fiskars ever was, I was able to cut my lawn in less that half the time, the cut quality was something I have never experienced either with the Fiskars, the reel blades on the Clipper USA are razor sharp, when they describe this mower as the Cadillac of reel mowers, they ain’t lying. Solid, sharp, easy to use and all built in the USA make this reel mower stand in a realm all on its own. I’m convinced this is the last reel mower I will ever own. If your on the fence about making this purchase, just go for it, it truly is everything they claim it to be and way more.
