I have an Allett and there is a bar there you have to take off and put back on and its rather difficult when changing cartridges. I have other issues with the mower and thinking of getting a Swordsman. I was wondering if changing the cartridge is easier then the Allett? The bar on the Allet that I am talking about is used to hang the grass catcher. Plus the Allett is so light that it bounces off the lawn. I have and use a California Dreamer but its a little too heavy and I think the Swardman would be a perfect fit. What are your opinions on my questions?
