The McClane, 17" swath 7-blade Briggs & Stratton version, I can get
from a local dealer for $550. It's gas powered and self-propelled.

The Trimmer, I can get directly from California Trimmer, 20" Heavy Duty
7-blade w/ 3.5 Briggs & Stratton enginer, for $1,400.

I spoke to a couple of dealers and they said in reference to the
McClane, 'You get what you pay for.'

Does anyone have experience with these two mowers? I don't have a
monstrous yard, but I do want a nice cut. Is the McClane really a
piece of junk?

Thanks,
Curtis
