Well I cut the area behind the house today that I would be happy if weeds would grow on with the flail mower. It did just what I wanted it to do, I'm a happy camper. I also cut most of the lawn with it, would not recomend it for regular cutting. The Haban does a better job for a decent lawn. If I can ever get some kind of green stuff to grow on the hill in the back of the house I'll sell the Bush Hog but for now it's a cool grass killer.
