No engine, no cord, and very close cuts · review
The only reel mower here sold with a collection bag, an 18-inch cut and 9 height positions. Its height range is given inconsistently.
None of the other reel mowers here includes a catcher. Reel mowers throw clippings forward, and a bag saves a rake on short lawns where they show.
LawnMaster gives 9 positions on the 18-inch deck, with conflicting minimums. Its rating of 4.1 is shared with other sizes, so it is less specific than it looks.
Keep fingers away from the reel when moving the mower: it turns with the wheels. Clear sticks and stones first, because a reel stops dead on them and the blades can be nicked.

Yes. The listing says it includes the mower and a collection bag.
The table gives 0.75 to 2 inches, and a bullet gives a minimum of 1.1 inches. Confirm on the mower before you rely on the low setting.

Good value, and the bag is a real difference on this shelf.

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
