    Great Video! I have the Grass Flap on my mowers! Grass Flap does an excellent job at mulching and also it cuts down on clean up time. I spoke with David at the GIE about 3 years ago, He is a great guy with an excellent product to sell!

      It’s definitely an impressive and functional addition to my mower

    Although I probably won't ever use a grass flap on my 21", great instructional video. Interesting to watch.

    Great job explaining install. I have a Ferris FW15 coming next week, I hope. Thinking of putting Grass Flap on it to keep grass out of planter beds.

      Congrats on the new mower! I think the Grass Flap will be a nice compliment to your investment

      I also want an FW-15.
      Would a mulch kit work better?
      Or will the grass flap closed mulch grass just as good.
      I like the opening of side discharging for thicker grass.
      I don’t want to leave a trail of grass clippings in nicer grass

    Excellent video Dan!! You’ve got me thinking 🤔 about the grass flap? I’ll be watching close for your reviews. I’ve got your same mower 2016 model and have been taking my mulch kit on and off all this time between fall to spring. I was definitely sold on the trimmer trap at $199 but for a $100 more this might be the way to go? We’ll see? I’ll be ordering one or the other in the next couple months.

    Hi Dan, nice job! One question : what about if you need to bag the clips?

    • @firstname6208
      @firstname6208 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      the grass flap flips over far enough to allow a grass catcher to fit up with out removing anything on most mowers.

  • @zachdavis3068
    @zachdavis3068 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I plan on getting one of these as well. Originally came across the trimmer trap and couldn’t stand the design, esp the long bar that travels to the chute to the handle bars. This extra $100 for the grass flap looks worth it. Will it work with bagger systems like the accelerator bagger or the rack em grass catchers? Awesome videos as usual dan!

    Hey Dan nice video. I had seen many videos about the grass flap cable getting broken. Did you check that before buying it? I want to buy it too but quite frankly I'm not so sure about it because of that cable and they said the cable is kind of expensive for just a cable. I hope that doesn't happen to you.

    • @DansVlog
      @DansVlog  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The cable will last a very long time if it is lubricates and not kinked.

      The ones that were best for the mulch plate! The wavy blades . That’s why I did all those tests so now I have the best combination with the chute blocker in the down position and I will only open it when I need to let clippings fly
