Works with modifications

I have an American Lawn Mower Reel type 16" wide. The catcher fits just fine but it is only sits on prongs. When you back up it comes off sometimes -- very annoying. I got a couple of clips and put the clips on the catcher by where it sits on the prongs. This keeps it from coming off. With this modification it works fine.

Flimsy

The grass catcher is not the one I would have purchased if I had seen it first. It is flimsy, and tilts in such a manner that about half of the grass collected falls back onto the grass. With a rake and this catcher one might be able to get 75% of the clippings, but it is not a very good product. Also, the snap on mechanism that connects the catcher to the mower is always slipping off, which makes keeping the clippings in the catcher that much more difficult. If one has this catcher it might be wiser to mow every three to four days. That way you won't have to use it.
