It worked quite well -- I pushed it on 6 or 8 very long rows through the thickest grass in the big field, and it whirred right along. The conventional push mowers are nearly impossible to mow through that grass. It takes about as much effort to push as an non-propelled power mower. Pretty darn good for a push reel mower. It works as long as you stay ahead of the growth and don't let it get too long. And turning the Fiskars takes a different technique than usual; though this may be affected by the choice of which of the four holes you attach the handle with? I've used #1 and #3 so far.
I got it at Lowes for ~$200. You bolt the handle together, and attach it to the mower, and you're off and mowing. They've got some brief videos of this which are helpful.
