Mine is push. I quit buying self drive years ago. The drive would quit long before the mower and they become extremely hard to push when the drive doesn't work.

Our first house had a postage stamp sized lawn, so I convinced my husband to use one of those "reel mowers". Yeah, that didn't last long! He's been using a self-propelled electric at this house. Takes about an hour, but it's good exercise!

11 or 12 year old Craftsman and a somewhat younger model - $300 each. Still waiting for them to die. Looks like they will last this season at least.

I grew up using a reel mower. I have never had any desire to go back to one.

I'm one of those weirdos who actually enjoy mowing - with a walk behind mower.

I don't, even with the riding mower. Good thing there is no HOA

I got one once. Used it a few times then trashed it.

Unloaded and put away 600 lbs. of all flock pellets and 50 lbs. of oyster shell.

Picked wild flower seed pods. Will check to see if there are any seeds in them. If there are, I will broadcast them down in the field.

I enjoy mowing as well. Walk behind, too. My neighbor is currently having a garage sale and has a reel mower for sale. Yes, she has used it before her heart attack. 82 years old and using a reel mower
