I was a just cut the grass man, then I was introduced to your videos, now I'm a my grass deserves more man. Your videos are fantastic. Thank you so much.

[E.ElderGilbert]

Awesome video. I wanted a allett mower, but can’t afford one!!!

[anmcclo]

great beginning to keep us listening to your input on lawn cutting

[alanvigor]

Well-explained, with good detail and a very unbiased approach

[gregsisk]

Very informative and thorough. This has caused me to see more benefits to the cylinder mower. Thank you.

[esoxmagnum]

Exceptional! I have always used a rotary mower, but am moving into a home with a bentgrass lawn. Thus, I'm moving to the cylinder mower and this video was immensely helpful. Now I just need to make the big purchase of my first cylinder mower. Thank you!

[benzon]

By far the best in class when it comes to enlightening us consumers with relevant information and not just another sales pitch - and in addition a super pleasant and knowledgeable presenter. Thanks.

[unionjack]

Very honest and comprehensive review👏🏻👏🏻👍

This is the video that encouraged me to go for a cylinder. I used a Hayter 56 for many years and it did a great job but as you say I wanted to take the lawn to the next level. I ordered a Kensington 20b from Allett with a scarifier/ lawn rake and a verticutter. I will still use the old Hayter for general work but will use the 20b for the perfection. Allett mowers are first class and you will not regret buying one, they give a great finish. Once you go Allett there is no going back 👍🏻

I've certainly upped my game in lawn care this year. But I still can't justify the cost of a cylinder. Frequent sharpening of my Toro blade and more frequent cutting gives me above average results.

Great video, thanks!

[philippegeorges]

Thanks for this excellent video. I learnt so many things. I keep thinking allett are good machines for people who love their lawn.

[shabbar]

Very extensive, comprehensive and transparent comparison

[davel]

[gregcarnall]

Great video and as always impartial and factual, keep up the great content. I'm loving my liberty 43 cordless :)

[timcolehan]

So impressed by Austin leading from the front. The MD doing the marketing vids!!!

I rake twigs and stones prior to mowing before I mow any mow how there’s a reason that I use both but my rotary only once per month. I use a roller driven manually powered reel mower made for putting greens, tennis courts etc a few times per week however every month I rake my lawn from one end to the other being certain to remove any thatch or dead grass that would interfere with emerging new growth and it’s then that I use my cordless rotary mower with bag as a vacuum cleaner. It’s adjusted slightly higher than my reel mower. 
I mist the lawn in each zone with water for twenty minutes and the next morning mow it with the reel mower to stop the bleeding.
I’m fifty eight years old and in a few years I know that I’ll want a powered small reel mower. I’m only interested in cordless electric and I compared your Liberty to the new offering. When the time comes I’ll select the Liberty. The machine is already of proven quality from its gas variants just as my rotary’s quality and performance were known to me as my prior rotary was its gas variant, and I’m a pragmatist.  The Liberty has a battery that is available widely and is removable from the machine as that’s the way it’s charged and enables the user to have multiple batteries whereas the new competitor’s design has an exclusive battery that resides in the handle of the machine and must be disassembled to be changed. These things matter in long term ownership.

Probably the most useful, impartial and balanced video I've seen on mowers. Excellent. On the basis of this talk I'm going to put my toe in the water and buy a used cylinder mower to see if I like it. Thanks for taking the time to provide such a detailed comparison.

[janajohnson]

Excellent video! I love cutting the grass and having a gorgeous lawn and enjoyed every moment of this video! Nice job!
