Wonderful review and comparison! Good show old bean!
One thing to consider... that green bit of plastic (which should be metal or at least stronger) in the handle clips of the Stirling completely worn down on both sides then the thing wouldn't start... nice design ^^ I guess if one of the clips is loose and you're pushing it, or even if you're just pushing it normally the weight of the machine seems to wear them down.
Any plans to bring the improvements of the Liberty shown in the Renovation Series into production (Handlebars + motor position)? Still struggling between Liberty, Stirling and Electra.
You never know 👍
Yes this would make the most sense. At least some updates would be nice! Liberty needs an update.
Amazing overview!
Looks like all it's missing is the reverse 😎
Price not considering I would wish there was a smaller versions of the Stirling too
Hopefully in the future!
For goodness sake. Give Daniel Hibbert a thank you sterling!!! It’s a match made in heaven that must go on! (Coming from a 2 year liberty owner)
Lovely video as always Austin. Just one question. Are the holes in the grass box small enough to stop seeds of the meadow grass and POA escaping?
great question
Belle comparaison de produit et bravo à la firme ALLET qui a su gommer les petit point faible de la Liberty sur la Stirling . Ça en fait plus une machine pour professionnel vu son prix . Preuve de compétence la firme ALLET innove constamment. Bravo à vous et petit plus pour les propriétaires de la Liberty cet adaptateur pour les cartouches interchangeables.
Where do you take/send the reels to get sharpened in the US.

You can backlap yourself just search for ALLETT backlapping on CZcams
Can you use cartridges from all sizes of Kensington with adaption on either the Liberty or the Stirling or is it just the 20” to the Stirling. If not, it’s a shame, as I think that might deter me and others from changing to a greener future because of the extra cost. Looking at the liberty, it would also have been nice to have seen a simple modification to the method of changing cartridges e.g. lever or knob screws on side cover. As you say it does dissuade changing them sometimes. This is especially true on my Kensington at the moment, as the nut welded on drive side of the frame has partially striped threads and I now have to secure the cartridge by using an extended length bolt and putting a backing nut on top of the striped nut. All Great mowers all the same.
HI Paul, No they have to be the same size eg if you have a Liberty 43 with cartridges you can take the 17'' cartridges with you to the Stirling 43.... or if you have a Kensington 20 you can use the 20'' cartridges in the Stirling 51. There may be changes on the current Kensington/Liberty 43 in the future to make life easier in terms of changing a cartridge quicker
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK thanks for getting back. While on, It would also be nice to have a spiral grooved roller option for all Allett machines from Kensington onward.
An interesting point to make is you can buy All the cartridges and the liberty 43 for the price of a sterling 43 with battery and charger. Makes me think if I were looking to buy would be how important is that 10 second cartridge change vs 2-3 minutes and a few other things.
That’s hopefully the decision what we’ve helped the customer to make after watching this video.
Are they willing to spend the extra money on the additional features and build that will make their life easier.
The EGO battery system is leaps and bounds ahead of Greenworks. I have both both battery systems but will soon convert to the EGO.
I need the Stirling. It seems to be the better of the two for my circumstance. The Stirling cost more but is more versatile with the cartridge system.
I have read that you used brushed motor, instead of brushless, on the Stirling, is there any reason for that?
Brushless on the Stirling
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK Thank you, will place my PO soon.
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK and a brushed motor on the Liberty?
@@MrShanilicious YES
Let's start with upgrading to the grass box from the Sterling onto the Liberty 43.
We aren’t going to be putting premier features on a machine in a lower range
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK I see,,then you have no intention of making any improvements to a now 6 year old model T,
@@brianwhitney9181 there will be slight improvements but we can’t be putting the same specs on a lower spec machine as the Stirling or there would be no place for the Stirling in the range
Some people love the hard box over the bag
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK What improvements could you possibly make that potential buyers here in North America would consider owning Liberty line. I have neighbors who love my Liberty 43 and have used it several times to try it out but what stops them from considering such a large investment is the grass bin. They want a bin that is easy to remove and reattach like on most rotary mowers here in North America. The Liberty Line is your most popular reel mower and after 6 years of production it appears to stand still like a statue never moving or changing appearance. The Sterling 51 is mostly targeted toward professional landscapers and those that have very deep pockets while the Liberty 43 is a primarily residential weekend warrior type of unit. I will be looking to an engineer friend to see if he can design me a one off grass bin that fits my needs.
@@brianwhitney9181 I will pass your comments to our team - we base all changes on feedback we get over the years
Do you consider to buy one of this if you have 20 000 squares meters to mow ?
It may take you some time to mow! You may need a wider mower from our pro range - maybe one with a trailing seat
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK which would you recommend for a half acre lot. (Battery powered, and I dont mind buying an extra battery to swap if needed)
@@jdog8701 what’s your budget?
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK would really like to stay around 5k but could go up to 10k usd
@@jdog8701 the Stirling would be in your price range but you may want something a little bigger
Have you looked at the C27e?
Good vid. Only thing I would say is (in my book) your scarifier is actually a rake, and your de-thatcher is actually a scarifier! I’ll agree with you that the verticutter is a verticutter 😊
Manufacturers love to overstate voltage by using the charged voltages. The nominal voltages are 36V (144Whrs) and 50.4V (252Whs), respectively, if they were fully charged. They seem to be charging them to about 80%.
I've used eGo batteries, they do last longer than several big brand names
This is reel asmr.
All cool, but why do I have to sell my kidney do get it?
Since I bought my Liberty, two years back,the cost of batteries has increase significantly.
Come on the Liberty! Let’s do this💪💚
The Liberty is outclassed in this comparison.
Grass clippings are illegal to throw in the trash or take to the local yard they will not accept. Can this unit mulch grass?
No. We don’t advise mulching as you’re putting thatch into the ground.
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK yeah I get it unfortunately it's illegal to dump grass clippings... so what are we supposed to do and how are you going to address this in the future?
@@DJ_Driven compost heap?
Where do you live? Usa? I suppose that’s because you’re allowed to put so much chemical on.
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK Yes USA. Grass clippings are band, due to fertilizer and chemicals are not controllable so it is illegal.
@@DJ_Driven we have plenty of cylinder mower uses in America
They must have compost heaps
Sterling looks an amazing machine, but too much for my budget. I'm going to take the plunge on a Liberty 43 though, especially now some offers have appeared!
Great to hear
Let us know if you need any further advice
Ego should bring these to the U.S....like yesterday is too late.
Stirling’s are in the USA

it is really weird to see a company try to sell me on the idea that the very expensive mower I just bought last year isn't really that good compared to another mower. I mean they're not making the case for a double the cost situation at all, but it's just a weird video to watch. I understand you want to sell your "new thing" but it seems like the main reason the cost is double is the R&D cost and the fact that this is a niche product. Maybe I'll check back on the Stirling in 5 years.
Hi Brian
The liberty is a great mower and you can get amazing results with it. It’s more than just about having a good mower. Have a look on our social media channels and you will see plenty of amazing lawns cut with a liberty 43. This video is simply to show the differences to those in the decision making process and the new amazing features the Stirling offers.
The quick cartridge change is a game changer for our professional gardeners who are time limited
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK I love my Liberty. I'm sure I'd love a Stirling but I don't understand what caused the doubling in price of an already very expensive line. The parts can't cost double, can they?
@@ALLETTMOWERSUK I have to wonder why after six years of producing the Liberty 43 the basket has not been upgraded to one that is like the Sterling. I have the Liberty 43 and really do not like the catch bin at all. We who have the Liberty would appreciate as an option a catch bin like the Sterling. The Liberty bin is awkward to handle and empty while even my rotary mower catch bin is so much liter and easy to manipulate into position. After 6 years let's update the Liberty Thanks for the videos.
@@emerickscott it’s a very expensive mower to make yes. It’s a semi-pro mower in-between the homeowner and pro range. It’s a very affordable option for bowls and cricket clubs where our mowers are 7k+. There’s a lot involved in the creation of a new product.
@@brianwhitney9181 will pass your comments on to our team. We haven’t had any complaints on the current Liberty box - some people love it some people don’t. It’s 50/50 really.
Feedback like yours is great for future changes
