If you want the deep, crisp stripes of a bowling green or a cricket square on your own lawn, no rotary mower will get you there. That finish comes from a cylinder mower, and Allett has built its name making…
Cobra is one of those brands that sits quietly below the names everyone recognises, then surprises people once they own one. The range runs to more than 40 machines, from a sub £150 corded electric mower up to petrol models…
