Comparison AL-KO Highline 527 SP vs AL-KO Classic 5.16 VS-B Plus

The volume of the grass clipping bag supplied with the lawn mower. Manufacturers select this volume depending on the power, performance and overall level of the unit, however, similar models may differ in this indicator. In such cases, it is worth considering that a larger bag takes longer to fill and needs to be unloaded less often, but it weighs more and takes up more space (even when empty). Mostly the difference in the volume of the bag is 5 liters and there are lawn mowers for 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70 and more liters.

The ability to change the speed of the self-propelled unit (see "Features"). In the absence of this function, you need to pay special attention to the maximum speed, since "non-adjustable" lawnmowers have, in fact, two modes — parking and full speed. But if there is an adjustment, you can adjust the speed of movement to the specifics of the situation. For example, slow motion will be the best mode for dense, long-term uncut grass (or if the operator for some reason cannot follow the mower quickly); and high speed will allow you to quickly cope with a large volume of relatively simple work.

Model of the engine installed in the lawn mower. The main performance data of the engine is usually indicated in the general data for the unit. However, knowing the exact name of the motor, you can find more detailed information on it — from specific data to reviews and reviews. Also, data on the engine model can be useful when searching for spare parts or consumables.
