Just purchased a nearly new Cal. Trimmer 20" after getting my yard sodded with Tif-Tuf Bermuda. I am greatly enjoying your content Dwayne. I researched several reel mower brands before purchasing the CT and Dwayne definitely helped me make up my mind between the McClane and the CT. Thank you Dwayne and California Trimmer.
Just ordered the extender, topper, ribbed roller, lapping kit, drive roller chain adjuster, all new chains, bed knife and clutch belts. She already cuts amazing can't imagine it getting better. Can't wait to see with her in tip-top shape!
Unfortunately I found that if your grass has got away from you as mine did after days of rain, the grass topper would cause the grass to pile up. I wound up just cutting several times to mulch up the clippings.
Hey Dwayne, love your content and passion for lawn care. My passion for lawn care is for a multitude of reasons. 1. It is my escape from the real world and the anxiety that I deal with in it, it helps me to relax and to just be at peace. 2. It fulfills that great sense of accomplishment and job well done that seems to be lacking in a M-F office job. 3. It has allowed me to show my daughter how if you commit to something and put in the proper work, that the results are incredible and worth every moment. 4. It takes me back to my days as a kid when I used to help my dad mow our 5-6 acres of land. I purchased my California Trimmer 2 seasons ago and have loved everything about it. Keep the great content coming!
I love all the reasons but 4 and 5 are the best. It really is a passion that can be handed down from generation to generation. I really appreciate you sharing and thank you for the support!!! 👍🏻
Dwayne, I enjoy lawn care for a lot of reasons! I’ve never had a true hobby, so extreme lawn care has met that need and given me something to do outside of my job. I, unfortunately, never got into the shared hobbies my dad and grandpa enjoyed, so becoming a lawn care enthusiast finally gave me my thing. Second, it has helped relieve anxiety, depression, and stress. Dwayne, thank you for your kind replies to my questions to you. Also, Jim at California Trimmer is outstanding. Be excellent and party on, Dwayne!
Thank you for sharing. Comments like yours are what makes the lawn community so great. I enjoy all the comments and questions and glad i can help where i can. Makes it all worth it!!! 👍🏻
Neighbor domination is the name of the game!!! Nothing better than driving by other homes ans saying they have nothing on me. Lol. Thank you for the comment 👍🏻
I got into lawn care because I enjoy the challenge in mowing and taking care of your lawn. Every year has its new challenges with weather, soil or just having the time. The outcome of mowing a yard with a cal trimmer, sets you apart from the rest. Thanks for all your videos as this helps us all in our journey to having the best yard on the block! 🤙 Party on Dwayne’s World
Thanks Robert !!!! A lot of people look at it as just a chore but all of us enthusiast it really is a joy and passion. Great job on the lawn domination and definitely appreciate your comment 👍🏻
Dwayne I enjoy mowing because it brings me serenity. While I mow I can think about how to solve problems I’m facing and when I’m done I have a great yard and peace of mind.
I would be lying if i didn’t do some of my best thinking while mowing. Love the therapy that it brings and glad so many enjoy the mow to help level set problems in life. 👍🏻
I love mowing because it’s therapy to me. A chance to be OCD, see immediate results, and take my mind off the craziness of kids, wife, work, etc. Plus, I enjoy the compliments from friends and neighbors who drive bye!
I have had a lawn maintenance person for 20 years. He is a wonderful person and helps me keep my lawn looking wonderful. However since watching your videos I decided to purchase a california trimmer. I bought a demo version from Jim today and I look forward to using it. I plan to mow my lawn at least twice a week. My lawn maintenance person will use the california trimmer on a Friday. I will use it on other days of the week to keep my lawn trimmed. I love the look of a well maintained yard. I have also setup a scheduled fertilizer and grass treatment schedule to keep my lawn looking green all year.
Dwayne, love the videos and your enthusiasm. The reason I like lawn care so much is to show my pride of ownership and getting outside and maintaining my lawn. It’s not a chore but a labor of love
Congratulations on the 1k subscribers! I love being in the lawn because it allows me to slow down, breathe deep, and just enjoy beautifying my property. Keep it up, Dwayne!
I have a 25in Cal Trim, I love how it cuts, I enjoy being on the lawn, I forget about everything when I am out there. “Party On!!! I will wear the hat on mowing days!!!
I love lawn care because it’s my getaway from being behind a desk all day. Plus there is nothing like seeing the result of hard work and sweat equity, especially when putting that into something you family can enjoy as well.
I love cutting my lawn its the best therapy there is and seeing the end results is well worth the effort. U have one of the best channels on the whole internet.
I’m on my third year reel mowing. I just enjoy being outside after working inside all day. Also, Jim is awesome. He was a huge help when I needed to replace the belt a few weeks ago. This was prior to your video on how to do that.
Great video Dwayne. I’ve now had my California Trimmer for 3 weeks. The cut is night and day compared to a rotary. When the boys were both in college, I realized I needed a hobby. No more football, marching band nor scouting. I decided, why not have the best looking lawn on the block. In addition, we had moved to a new home with bermuda. i never had bermuda before. So Ive learned a lot between proper fertilizer (Andersons) to now using a reel. I am very happy with the results.
It is truly a great hobby with lots of satisfaction!!!! Nothing like converting from rotary to reel 👍🏻. Glad your enjoy the Bermuda and dominating the neighbor. Well done sir!!!
Have always wanted a golf course lawn. Finally got some zoysia last year. Have been obsessed with getting lawn as best it can be since then. Knew reel mower would help get there and your videos really helped me decide where to go. Cal trimmer 25 for past month and am in love. Continue to enjoy your content. Keep up the good work.
Thank your Michael, i appreciate the kind words. Although my lawn is Bermuda, the more i learn about zoysia the more of a fan i am. The 25 cal trimmer a great mower and not surprised you are loving it. Maybe 1 day i can get my hands on 1 to be able to feature on the channel 👍🏻
Hey Dwayne the reason for me that I enjoy lawn care as being a transportation supervisor for a food delivery company, is while I'm in the yard cutting and taking care of my bermuda lawn it helps relax my mind and be in my own world for the few hours a week. And I also get the satisfaction of stepping back and admiring all the work I've put in.
Hey Dwayne! Another great Video! That extender works great! I talked with Jim at Cal Trimmer and he's really a good source of knowledge. Cal Trimmer is one of the oldest reel mower manufactures around. He told me about the new Cal Trimmer electric mower coming out next year that I'm sure will be a huge deal. You're in a great position to really evaluate their old and new products with unbiased honest evaluations as you have done with the New Grass Extender! This is a great opportunity for you! I'm a big fan of Dwayne's World because of your straight forward detailed videos that you take the time to produce. A great resource for newbies and seasoned reel mowers. Keep up the great work and your grass looks Amazing after the Hard Cut! Man, you're yard is beautiful and inspiring! I look forward to each new video that you put together! I love power reel mowing! The results if done correctly are very satisfying and rewarding. It puts you in zone and much like a meditation. I started with a brand new Burmuda Lawn last year. I laid down 3000 feet of subsurface irrigation lines to save water. Added Tiftuf sod which is too tall because I tried to mow it with push mowers which became impossible mid summer. The power reel mower has made me proud It looks just beautiful! Because of Your channel I'm understanding The Why and How of the process. You will have 10,000 Subscribers soon! Keep up the great work!
I live in NE Oklahoma and I put down a new Tiffgreen Bermuda grass lawn last summer and it really took off and looks really good. I want to go to the next level with it by going to a reel mower. I really do appreciate the information your share! Thanks 👍
I literally tried my grass topper today and then i was like man alot of grass is coming out...and then i get on the computer to see that you put out a video saying "shield extender" lol. you came in clutch today! Hopefully i win. Grass cutting is my therapeutic activity. its so nice seeing a fresh cut.
I love making the lawn look like a work of art. I change my direction each week and add in diagonals also. Trying to keep my lines straight on the longest portions of my lawn!
Thank you Kenneth. Sorry about the spam if you had seen it before i removed it. No winner announced and will be on a future video. Thank you for your comment and appreciate how much you enjoy working on the lawn. Great stuff 👍🏻
I like the video on the grass topper I wish I would have seen it sooner. I bought the grass topper from reel rollers and was very disappointed with it because my California trimmer threw more grass on top of the topper than in the bin. I called reel rollers for a possible solution and they said they had the extension for it so I ordered it. I waited for a month or so to get it in and it never came and they said it isn’t in stock so I got my money back. Good thing I have a neighbor who is a fabricator and he made me on out of galvanized steel and it works great. I wish I could send you a picture I was able to paint it green to match my mower. Thanks for the video I really enjoy your content.
Absolutely love being in the lawn, as its good amount of therapy and very calming during and after the long work weeks! Congrats on blowing that milestone away!
Thank you Zach, i really appreciate that. Even if it is 100 degrees outside which is still is 🥵. I still find it relaxing to just enjoy the mow!!! Thank you for sharing and appreciate the comment 👍🏻
I’m very passionate about lawn care, because it helps me unwind after a long day or start my day with a clear head. I have been dealing with a lot of stress and depression for a while now and finding joy in lawn care has helped immensely. I love your channel Dwayne. You’re a good guy and your videos are very informative.
Something to note, the grass shield extender along with the topper are great as long as you're cutting short grass. I tried the combination after my grass had grown to about 4" due to days of rain. I didn't cut 10' and the grass piled up at the mouth of the topper and catcher. Even after taking the topper off the extender caused the clippings to pile up at the mouth of the catcher. I actually then wound up taking the catcher off and mowing the yard 3-4 times to mulch up the clippings.
Yes, Great point. If you watch my video on my recent Bermuda recovery video where i scalp, i had the same issue. I need to take the catcher off and then pick up the clipping with a rotary mower. I appreciate the comment and the support. 👍🏻
Just really started lawn care for the first time this season due to finally owning my own home. Never knew how much the work put into it would impact the pride felt after it was all said and done. Obviously it’s a continuous battle and not one I have come close to winning to my standards, but it has become completely addicting and just want to get better the further I go along. Thanks for your content I think it’s pretty awesome so definitely keep it up! I take a lot of stock in real world comparison videos and they definitely have an impact on the purchases I make. Thanks again good sir!
Thank you for the awesome comment and congratulations on the new home. A friend of mine says the grass will feel better once i pay off my home which will be a long time for me. Lol. For me, the fact that it’s never really done and new challenges alway arise is why i love it. I am glad you are finding my content uses and hope to continue to make my channel even bigger in the future. 👍🏻
@@dwaynesworldlawn Yes my first reel mower unfortunately I didn’t know about Scott till the first day I brought it but he was more then helpful when I reached out to him for advice I’ve been dealing with him since! Love your videos been very helpful thought my journey with my Bermuda grass I had the postal man stop me Friday and say man your lawn looks like at golf green my hat size went up a size..😂🤣 keep up the great work and I’ll keep watching
Your spot on when it comes to Scott. I too didn’t buy my cal trimmer from him but he treats me like was his customer all along. Those compliment are the best. Had a lady stop me and ask for my gardener information. She was so sad when i told her i do my own lawn 😂
In the market for a reel mower currently and I’ve watched several of your comparison videos and I thank you for them. Seems you may lean CT > McLane but acknowledge both machines are top notch? 1 comparison I have not seen is comparing a 20” to a 25” of the same unit, so McLane to McLane or CT to CT. Other than the obvious, wider cut you’ll finish faster etc. any other pros / cons? Quality of cut etc? Also compare a 7 blade to a 10 blade, what’s the advantages / disadvantages. Thanks in advance and keep the quality content coming.
The answer to the 7 vs 10 blade is depending on frequency on how often you mow plus hoc. People get hung up on wanting more blades but it’s not always the better option. I would say generally if you plan to mow lower then 3/4 inch than a 10 blade is a good option but isn’t required. Lower cutting heights such as 1/2inch will see more of the benefit as with cutting height to maintain requires mowing much more often. I prefer 7 blade for most people because it’s works great to cut from 1/2 up to 1 inch or even higher when needed. In regards to the cal trimmer the 20 vs 25 inch there is a major difference between the 2. The 25 and 20 don’t share the same drive system and the 25 is not as user friendly as the 20 inch is very much the preferred drive system. I wouldn’t recommend the 25 inch generally especially if you have turns and corners as the 25 doesn’t give the. Ability to throttle the speed and is good or no go. Hope this helps. 👍🏻
I certainly do appreciate the response… would you say waiting for the drum rollers on the catalyst 20” is worth the wait or are the ruts the wheels leave behind on the traditional 20” not that bad? Thanks again.
One other thing, I’ve been working the last few years to slowly get the lawn leveled but slow process, are a few minor ruts and imperfections enough to scalp it bad at 3/4” or so?
The catalyst looks like an awesome machine and maybe worth the wait. California trimmer is a great company but can’t say that the RL20h is not also a great mower. Hope this helps
Looking to purchase a reel mower within the next year or so as now that I am retired life has become like a line from a 70's song. I have too much, too much time on my hands and I simply want the best looking lawn in the neighborhood.
Going for a rotary to a reel mower is a great upgrade. When you say you have too much time on your hands, reel mowing is perfect for you. Lol. There are time in the summer you could probably mow every other day based on height of cut. I really appreciate you comment and support in being viewer!!!!
Dwayne, I had scheduled an appointment last Tuesday with Reel Rollers in Buford for a demonstration of the Revolution-26. Very Impressive mower but as I am new to Reel Mowing Lee did not feel that this would be the right mower for me, I am not a big guy and am concerned about mowing with something that weighs more than I do. Lee did recommend that I consider buying a used reel first. Any suggestions as to which mower might be best? I have roughly around 13,330 Square feet of lawn to mow so I am thinking that I would need at least a 25" mower. Parts of my yard are slopped.@@dwaynesworldlawn
You may want to look at other options and may want to buy a used mower just to avoid a huge investment where you are unsure if you want to make the leap. One option also is to go with a smaller mower like a 20 inch and not reel mow the entire but only a section of it. Maybe and area that’s closer to the house or an outline area that makes sense based on your layout. With the remaining portion of your lawn maybe a ride on mower or rotary. Just a thought.
Yes i recommend the California trimmer over the Mclane especially if you are looking for a new mower. If you are shopping used then you may want to weigh out options based on priced but would still prefer California trimmer based on features. Also take a look at my 4 mower comparison and it better explains why i like the cal trimmer. I appreciate the comment and the support 👍🏻

Thanks Roy!!!! It’s the old muscle car of my reel mower. Not the daily driver. Lol
I love mowing because it’s therapy to me. A chance to be OCD, see immediate results, and take my mind off the craziness of kids, wife, work, etc. Plus, I enjoy the compliments from friends and neighbors who drive bye!
No sir! Please, give to someone else!!!! I was just having fun with the contest!

It definitely helps with directing the grass towards the center of the catcher

Hey Dwayne I got my extender and back lapping items from Scott and going to tackle it tomorrow thanks to your awesome video, I’m guessing shield next.
It’s really a great accessory. I’m glad Scott took care of you. He’s a great guy and takes care of his customers 👍🏻

Yes my first reel mower unfortunately I didn’t know about Scott till the first day I brought it but he was more then helpful when I reached out to him for advice I’ve been dealing with him since! Love your videos been very helpful thought my journey with my Bermuda grass I had the postal man stop me Friday and say man your lawn looks like at golf green my hat size went up a size..😂🤣 keep up the great work and I’ll keep watching
Your spot on when it comes to Scott. I too didn’t buy my cal trimmer from him but he treats me like was his customer all along. Those compliment are the best. Had a lady stop me and ask for my gardener information. She was so sad when i told her i do my own lawn 😂
In the market for a reel mower currently and I’ve watched several of your comparison videos and I thank you for them. Seems you may lean CT > McLane but acknowledge both machines are top notch? 1 comparison I have not seen is comparing a 20” to a 25” of the same unit, so McLane to McLane or CT to CT. Other than the obvious, wider cut you’ll finish faster etc. any other pros / cons? Quality of cut etc? Also compare a 7 blade to a 10 blade, what’s the advantages / disadvantages. Thanks in advance and keep the quality content coming.
The answer to the 7 vs 10 blade is depending on frequency on how often you mow plus hoc. People get hung up on wanting more blades but it’s not always the better option. I would say generally if you plan to mow lower then 3/4 inch than a 10 blade is a good option but isn’t required. Lower cutting heights such as 1/2inch will see more of the benefit as with cutting height to maintain requires mowing much more often. I prefer 7 blade for most people because it’s works great to cut from 1/2 up to 1 inch or even higher when needed. In regards to the cal trimmer the 20 vs 25 inch there is a major difference between the 2. The 25 and 20 don’t share the same drive system and the 25 is not as user friendly as the 20 inch is very much the preferred drive system. I wouldn’t recommend the 25 inch generally especially if you have turns and corners as the 25 doesn’t give the. Ability to throttle the speed and is good or no go. Hope this helps. 👍🏻
I certainly do appreciate the response… would you say waiting for the drum rollers on the catalyst 20” is worth the wait or are the ruts the wheels leave behind on the traditional 20” not that bad? Thanks again.
One other thing, I’ve been working the last few years to slowly get the lawn leveled but slow process, are a few minor ruts and imperfections enough to scalp it bad at 3/4” or so?
The catalyst looks like an awesome machine and maybe worth the wait. California trimmer is a great company but can’t say that the RL20h is not also a great mower. Hope this helps
Looking to purchase a reel mower within the next year or so as now that I am retired life has become like a line from a 70's song. I have too much, too much time on my hands and I simply want the best looking lawn in the neighborhood.
Going for a rotary to a reel mower is a great upgrade. When you say you have too much time on your hands, reel mowing is perfect for you. Lol. There are time in the summer you could probably mow every other day based on height of cut. I really appreciate you comment and support in being viewer!!!!
Dwayne, I had scheduled an appointment last Tuesday with Reel Rollers in Buford for a demonstration of the Revolution-26. Very Impressive mower but as I am new to Reel Mowing Lee did not feel that this would be the right mower for me,
I am not a big guy and am concerned about mowing with something that weighs more than I do. Lee did recommend that I consider buying a used reel first. Any suggestions as to which mower might be best? I have roughly around 13,330 Square feet of lawn to mow so I am thinking that I would need at least a 25" mower. Parts of my yard are slopped.@@dwaynesworldlawn
You may want to look at other options and may want to buy a used mower just to avoid a huge investment where you are unsure if you want to make the leap. One option also is to go with a smaller mower like a 20 inch and not reel mow the entire but only a section of it. Maybe and area that’s closer to the house or an outline area that makes sense based on your layout. With the remaining portion of your lawn maybe a ride on mower or rotary. Just a thought.
Finally found my original post and as per your request - “Be excellent and party on” so the inevitable question remains are you Wayne or Garth?
@@jimmymiller4732 Wayne for sure but still a huge fan of Dana Carvey!!!
I'm considering getting a new reel mower and saw your McLane review. Do you still recommend the Cali trimmer in 20" model?
Yes i recommend the California trimmer over the Mclane especially if you are looking for a new mower. If you are shopping used then you may want to weigh out options based on priced but would still prefer California trimmer based on features. Also take a look at my 4 mower comparison and it better explains why i like the cal trimmer. I appreciate the comment and the support 👍🏻
Where can I purchase the grass shield
Reel rollers or contact Scott at triangle reel mowers.
Scammers on your page Dwayne trying to tell everyone they’re a winner.
