Q: I have a very small front lawn of Zeon zoysia, a small backyard of TTFF/Bluegrass, and an empty 1/2 acre of fair quality fescue that I cut as the kid's soccer field. Is there any good reason to spend the extra $250 for the Honda GX 7-reel compared to the B&S? by TC from North Carolina on March 20, 2016
A: TC - the zoysia and bluegrass would not be an issue. As for the soccer field, there are many varieties of fescue, but if it’s a turf-type fescue and you are looking to cut it at a height of around 1-1/2”, that’s within the cutting height range of the 20” / 7 blade mower. As for the engines, my experience is the Honda GX engine is going to offer greater reliability and better overall performance than the Briggs 550ex engine will. Both good engines, but the Honda GX will probably have less in the way of maintenance cost and down time in the long run. by Jose, Product Expert
Q: Jose - how hard is it to push this mower? Looks pretty heavy from the spec's. by Neil from Illinois on November 10, 2015
A: Neil - California Trimmer reel mowers are designed to make the operation as smooth and easy as possible. There is a drive roller on the mower that propels the mower forward using a deep-tread, no-slip covering that protects the grass and provides tremendous traction. If you need to operate the cutting reel without forward movement, you can simply raise the roller off the ground and take advantage of the mower’s unique “freewheeling” feature – perfect for cutting under shrubs and in tight spaces. by Jose, Product Expert
Q: Jose - I'm not sure if I should be using a 5-blade or a 7-blade mower for my lawn. What's the difference? by Dave from Illinois on November 10, 2015
A: Dave - generally speaking, a 7-blade reel is best suited for cutting bermuda, tiff, bent grass and zoysia. The 5-blade reel is best suited for cutting wet grass or areas that have a great amount of moisture (rain). The prevailing rule: the tougher the grass and the finer the cut you want, the more you want the 7-blade; the wetter the grass, the taller the grass, the chunkier the lawn, the more you want the 5-blade.
Wet Climate: 5-blade Common Bermuda: 7-blade Hybrid Bermuda: 7-blade Zoysia Grass: 7-blade Bent Grass: 7-blade Junky Grass: 5-blade

Great Mower
Great mower. Had some break in time because of the tight reel. Works great after a few mowings. Good heavy fine cut mower. Drags me around the yard if I don't turn the speed down!
I had an 18 year old mclane that finally died, was looking for another 7 blade reel and read the reviews on the cal-trim. I liked what I saw, ordered the 20" with the Honda engine. Wow! This thing will have me winning multiple yard of the month awards.
Does a great job on my 419 Bermuda. Several neighbors have inquired about the mower. I am keeping my yard at 1" and this mower is great. One suggestion - order the roller with it as it makes a huge difference if you have any uneven areas in your lawn.
Chris Burtis in customer service at Evergreen is fantastic to work with as well. I would highly recommend this mower to anyone.

"No complaints - all questions and concerns were handled promptly."
I have had this mower for 1 year now and it still starts on the first pull. It does an outstanding job on the lawn and leaves clean cut grass blades. My lawn looks beautiful after mowing. I have Tifgreen 328 grass and keep the mower at .25" height in spring and summer and I over-seed with rye grass in winter. The mower cuts both grasses great. You won't go wrong purchasing this mower!
Pros:Quiet, Exceeded Expectations, Reliable, High Quality
Cons:None
