Product Description

The value of a grass catcher is undeniable. If you don't want cut grass strewn across your lawn, you need to either rake after mowing or get a grass catcher. If you've decided a grass catcher is more of a necessity than an alternative, the question becomes what kind to get. One quality to look for is durability, because, let's face it, the grass catcher has a hard row to hoe, getting dragged over all sorts of terrain while wet grass and dirt are spewed into its basket. Another essential quality is rot resistance, because wet grass can cause some damage to frail fabric. This grass catcher sports a durable plastic bottom, polyester rot-resistant fabric, and a heavy-duty wire frame. In addition, it folds up compactly for easy storage. Though some assembly is required, it's neither difficult nor complicated.


What Some Customers Thought

They should make clear this is a generic, "one-size fits all" grass catcher

This is a barely acceptable product. It is intended to fit all types of push mowers, from 14 inches to 20 inches wide. Needless to say, it cannot do the job suitably for all of them. Can't speak for how it works for other sizes, but it does not work well for the 20 inch mower.


Instructions to attach 1ST-SP to Scotts 2000-20-20

I bought a Scotts 2000-20-20 and wanted a Grass Catcher with it. Though all the reviewers warned of not having the instructions to attach this grass catcher to Scotts 2000, I went ahead and bought it. My catcher arrived with no instructions at all. Fortunately, the same model was available in my Home Depot and I went through the instructions. Completely useless.^M

Here are the instructions and the material you will need. This is what works great for me. Your experience may vary^M
^M
1. Place catcher close to the Black rod behind the catcher.^M
2. The grass is thrown to your left, if you standing behind the catcher. So place the catcher to the extreme left of the black rod. The space on the right hand is not a problem.^M
3. Cut four square patches of small Velcro and attach to 2 pieces to the black rod and 2 pieces to the catcher on either end where the steel rod is exposed. This prevents the catcher from sliding to the right.^M
4. Use a strip of velcro to attach the catcher securely to the black rod.^M
5. You are in business. Go cut some grass.^M
^M
The velcro helps in detaching the catcher from the scotts for easy storage (duct tape works, but is too hard to remove. You can use twistix, but the catcher slides)^M

Have fun.


too small

This grass catcher would have been perfect if it had fit my 20" mower.
