Bolens has been a leader in the field of gardening equipment since the company was founded in 1850. They were the first company to create a power-driven garden tractor, in 1919. Bolens manufactures a wide range of garden tractors, walk-behind mowers, edgers, tillers, snow blowers, trimmers and other kinds of garden power equipment.

The name Bolens actually comprises several brands that have been developed for both commercial and residential use. Each brand specializes in different types of equipment. McCullough, for instance, specializes in chain saws, hedge trimmers, chipper shredders and brush cutters. Troy-Bilt is one of the best-known sources for tillers and walk-behind or riding mowers. Yard-Man is a brand that offers premium products at lower prices.

There is a Bolens lawn mower for nearly any use. Bolens manufactures walk-behind mowers that feature Briggs & Stratton engines, self-propelled mowers with front-wheel-drive transmissions, and environmentally friendly electric mowers. The Bolens tractor features a no-clutch operation and even includes a cup holder. If a Bolens part is needed, the company has entered into a partnership with a major home improvement warehouse chain.

When winter comes, you can retire your snow shovel, too. Yard-Man snow throwers use hard-working Tecumseh engines, available with up to 13 horsepower and a 45-inch clearing path. Trigger control power steering makes them easy to control and maneuver. You can even have heated handles to help get you through the worst storm with minimum effort and discomfort.
