Product Description

From the Manufacturer

McLane - manufacturing the best quality, precision cutting lawn and garden equipment since 1946. The McLane facility covers over 75,000 square feet in the city of Paramount, CA. They only use Briggs & Stratton and Honda high performance engines. McLane produces reel mowers, green mowers, rotary mowers, and edgers. Reel mowers are ideal for cutting Bermuda and St. Augustine type grasses. Rotary mowers tear at the grass, leaving them open to disease. Reel mowers snip the grass, cutting each blade like a pair of scissors. It's a precise, clean cut that makes for a healthier and more attractive lawn. And because of the cutting action of a reel mower you can leave reel clippings on the lawn. Reel mowers create a fine spray of clippings that act as a mulch and decompose quickly, releasing nitrogen into the lawn. Over the course of a cutting season, that mulch is equivalent to a free application of fertilizer. McLane has many dealers and distributors located nation wide for your convenience. For a McLane dealer in your area please contact us by phone at [phone] or email [e-mail].

This review is from: McLane 17-3.5GT-7-SP Front-Throw Reel Mower Self-propelled (Lawn & Patio)

This mower provides a great cut. I have bermuda grass and compared to my neighbors yards with bermuda grass that they cut with a regular riding mower it's a huge difference. Our grass looks like a golf course and theirs look ragged.

The issue I have wit this mower is that the instructions could be much better. Very poor pictures of a different model mower. Very generic instructions. The height of the mower is an issue too. It's adjustable but at it's highest level I have to lean down a bit to use it. I'm 6' so this is going to be an issue for a lot of ppl. The self-propelled speed is a little slow but I was able to adjust it to a decent speed. Probably will wear out the belt sooner but atleast it will take less time to mow the lawn.
