Useable...I suppose. [Posted on 2006-06-25]
I purchased this grass catcher to use with my new Scotts Classic 20" reel mower. The mower's great. The catcher isn't. The fit is...well...iffy. It snaps easily enough on the bar above the rear roller assembly, where it awaits the inopportune moment to detach itself. I've found the best way to counter this is to lift up on the handle when pulling back on the mower, thereby avoiding telescoping the grass catcher (and dumping the cuttings back on your lawn). However, the mower cannot be pushed with the handle raised even slightly or the clippings will spill forward out of the catcher. Also, on every path or so it's necessary to reach down behind the blades and sweep the grass toward the back of the catcher: otherwise there isn't enough room for the next batch.
I guess this thing will have to do, as I have yet to locate a better device. But I'm looking.

SINCE I HAVE A MUCH SMALLER LAWN AREA NOW I BOUGHT A PUSH MOWER AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A MAJOR BRAND, I COULDN'T FIND A CATCHER FOR IT. WAS THRILLED TO SEE THAT TARGET HAD ONE. I STILL HAVEN'T USED IT BECAUSE I NEED TO BUY SOME NUTS AND BOLTS TO ATTACH IT TO MY MOWER. WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE TO KNOW THIS SO I WOULD HAVE HAD THEM ON HAND BEFORE I RECEIVED THE CATCHER.

It is what it is: Simple to assemble (but if you need to use the "hooks" for an 18" make sure they face the right direction) and works as described. Backing up will dislodge the catcher is you do not raise the handle. Need to maintain a good speed for it to catch cuttings optimally.
