RB (verified owner) –
I owned a Trucut H20 for over 20 years, and a Cal Trimmer RL207 for the last 2, before getting the Rev 20. The TC died, and no parts were available. So I got the Cal while I waited for the Rev 20 to be released, which I bought April ’25.
TC was an awesome machine- a tank, built to last, and it did. It was a joy to use, but not maintain. Feathering the speed & climbing, this is the best of the bunch. You can’t feather at all on Cal, and on the Revolution, the bar is less ergonomic than the thumb lever on TC.
Anyone who’s owned a TC knows that it’s kind of a pain to grease all the zerks, and adjusting the reel/knife clearance requires voodoo. It took me most of the 20 years to master adjusting it even fairly easily when backlapping.
The Cal is nice, and cuts beautifully, and has easy reel/bedknife adjustment & pretty easy backlapping. But no speed control, and having to constantly raise/lower the drive roller is cumbersome, and wasn’t a good fit for my yard. If you have a large flat rectangle of a yard, it probably wouldn’t be a big deal to you. I’m not a fan of belts. Like the TC, the rear wheels tend to leave ruts where repeatedly cutting along sidewalks & driveways.
With the TC, I sent it to the shop annually for service, and did my own backlapping. I love that I won’t have to do that anymore. Maintenance on the Rev is dead simple. No belts, no zerks, easy access for chain maintenance, easy clutch adjustments, easy access for changing oil.
Rev’s cut quality is the best, and can stay that way. The ease of doing micro adjustments on reel/bed knive is amazing. And the fact that it has no wheels gives absolutely insane striping, with only the front roller and back roller making contact. It’s also great that you can do infinite adjustments on HOC. No hard stop notches- you want to raise height 1/16”, you can do it with a simple partial twist of the adjustment knob. This is especially good for me, because most of my yard is TifGrand, which I cut lower than the 419. 419 has more vertical growth, so I can finesse the height to avoid scalping when necessary.
Rev is an extremely solid machine, easy to maintain, and checks all the boxes of what I wanted: Feathering speed around curves & obstacles, easy maintenance, easy bed/knife adjustment, and simple backlapping. I only use grasscatchers for spring scalp, so I haven’t used it yet- but I know the design of the Rev is far better than either the TC or Cal. And the fins they use to evenly disperse the cuttings, and prevent them from being thrown to the side really work.
The only negative I’ve found is that to keep the unit balanced, they offset the engine to the right side, opposite the sprockets & chains on the left. This gives you no line of sight to your right front edge when mowing. I’m getting used to it, but it makes it pretty difficult to keep your mowing lines straight. But truthfully, without wheels marking the line, and the quality of stripe it leaves, you don’t have to be perfect to get beautiful results- I just slightly overlap cutting lines, and you’d never know. And it’s not much a negative, but turning around on the rear roller does require significantly more force than turning a mower on wheels. To avoid tearing turf on turnarounds, I’ve adopted a 3 point turn.
For anyone considering a reel mower (not a greens mower) I don’t believe there’s a better machine made, at any price.
