You’d do well to mow a cricket square (usually 1000sqm+) with a 43cm mower in 30 minutes of run time

[@MowdLtd]

My local cricket pitch is 500m2. I'll have a go tomorrow and let you know... Feel like my chances are good tho 😜 Using the scarifier is a different story unless you do one track per week in prep

[@JohnBarber1958]

This is a homeowner model isn't it? It would not be used on a cricket square - Allett have commercial mowers for that

[@MowdLtd]

Quite right they do have a professional series, starting with the Stirling. However my local club is a small one, with a tiny budget, and this mower can comfortably go down to 15mm with the 6 blade cylinder. The warranties will differ tho from sports use to home use, we will have the Stirling too to test, so let's see how that fares!

[@MowdLtd]

We got the square cut twice on 1 full charge, that's pretty good going, like I say a small square of about 500m2 and because it's cut regularly, the mower was working very gently!

[@ALLETTMOWERSUK]

@@JohnBarber1958 yes we do John! This mower is not designed for cricket or any sporting setting

[@mickedensor]

You say that this mower takes all of the Allett RC cassettes, but the RC cassette range, as far as I can see, is specifically for the Cambridge mower. Most users of Allett or Atco petrol mowers will have QC cassettes, which won't be suitable for the Cambridge mower without some conversion.

[@MowdLtd]

Hi there, sorry I meant you can use the QC cartridge in the Cambridge - they have engineered an adapter to allow this (that is fitted on this particular machine) - I spoke with Allett today and this was their reply: You can put the QC cartridges in the Cambridge you just need the QC2RC conversion kit which is two brackets either side or the cylinder - this bracket has your grassbag hoop on and a guard to cover the open gap in the side guard for safety (and by law)

[@mickedensor]

@@MowdLtd OK, thanks for the clarification. Have Allett advised what this conversion kit will cost? I cannot find anything about it online.

[@MowdLtd]

They've said they are available from local dealers for around £50 - I will do a short video on it next week if you like?

[@mickedensor]

@@MowdLtd That would be very useful, so yes! Cheers!

[@leefenton9477]

You should have included a video of the balmoral 20 in action

[@MowdLtd]

That's a great shout - do you want to see it? I can get a video on that in the next few weeks if you like?

[@leefenton9477]

@@MowdLtd if you could, thar would be great. I’ve got a 14s but I got it at the end of last year and at the moment I am part way through removing some decking and looking to extend the grass a bit. Hopefully not too long to.wait 🤞🤞

[@MowdLtd]

Let me see what I can do this week, weather permitting!

[@Platoface]

I would love one but the prices are ridiculous. I just bought a Rolux because it’s the best bang for the buck. We all ain’t rich out here in FJB land.

[@MowdLtd]

It is an expensive machine that's for sure, but it is hand built and engineered in the UK. The model down is the Cambridge, that's more price competitive and a beautiful machine, check our review video of that!

[@DanYoung1]

How long does it take to charge the battery?

[@MowdLtd]

With the greenworks battery around 1hr 30 mins. If you get an Allett Mowers with the ego system they have a rapid charge function, around 40mins

[@neilbirkenhead5936]

The paint will peel of that allett in 2 years. The cylinders are made from lower grade steel than the atco. Believe me the atco will outlast that allett

[@MowdLtd]

Do you reckon? I can't say I've heard that about the Alletts. Have you used one? I do love my Balmoral tho 😁
