The only mower that will out live you. Built to last and never become obsolete.
Living in Texas not too many folks cut their lawns like a golf course, but I wanted to. This machine is great for any lawn, it cuts perfectly every pass.

Gayle J. - Texas

I was very pleased with the quality of the cut compared to the golf course greens walk behind reel mowers I have used all of my career.

Ryan L. - Virgina

Great mower, couldn't be more happy, lifetime product, professional...

Doug R. - California

This product is perfect easy to use and great features, CUT TO PERFECTION!!!

Orell C. - Texas

I own two Mclane reel mowers and two California trimmer reel mowers. The California trimmers are of far better quality and performance. Plus the Trimmers are far easier to lap and adjust the blades when sharpening.

James T. - California

Bought this to take my Bermuda to the next level. Very easy to use and produces a beautiful cut. Couldn't be happier

Results Ordinary Rotary Mowers Simply Can't Match

  • CLEAN CUT: Reel mowers maintain a healthy lawn because they shear the grass with a clean,sharp cut like scissors instead of tearing off the ends of the grass blades like a rotary mower.
  • PRECISE CUT: Every California Trimmer mower comes with two height adjustment features that allow you to precisely lock-in your desired cutting height.
  • UNMATCHED CRAFTSMANSHIP: superior craftsmanship will ensure that your California Trimmer will still be manicuring beautiful lawns long after your old rotary mower has been retired.
