Those who are serious about their lawn edges and who prefer power and performance are often drawn to the McLane edgers. These offer stability, relative ease of use (no carrying), power, and reliable performance. We here at Lawn Edgers knew that we couldn’t talk about edgers for long without looking at McLane lawn edger models.
There are several models to choose from, though all are based on the same platform. The difference between one McLane yard edger and the next is usually engine accessories. They all feature the same 3.5hp Briggs & Stratton engine or the Honda 4hp engine. All McLane sidewalk edger models have either 7 or 8 inch wheels (either 3 or 4).
A single lever controls the blade clutch and depth of cut. The famous McLane gas edger steel frame and dual bearings on the wheels makes for stable and easy use. Variable speed throttle controls, a large blade, and enclosed pulleys keep it running reliably, with power.
Because they sit entirely on the ground and are controlled through the handles like a lawn mower or tiller, the McLane edgers are popular amongst those who wish to care for their own lawn, but do not wish to carry a 10-15 pound tool around to do so.
McLane edgers are made in the USA (California), have extra blades in the box, and are known for their reliability.
