The Classic series is ideal for residential users who want to upgrade from a rotary mower to a reel mower. It offers multiple configuration options for cutting height range, engine type, blade setup, front wheels, or rollers to suit different grass types and mowing preferences.
The “Standard” versions are recommended for lawns maintained at or below 1.25 inches, while the “High-Cut” versions are recommended for lawns above 1.25 inches and up to 2.25 inches.
The Classic series continues the proven “H.O.” models from the past 50 years and remains a best-seller. Its popularity is reflected in thousands of appearances on social media with positive reviews and recommendations, reinforcing California Trimmer as a leading reel mower brand.
