THE ALPINA AL5 46 SAEQ
Our most-watched campaign is back by popular demand!
Stick the kettle on, grab a biscuit and get yourself comfy as we take you on a deep dive into the features and specifications that have made the AL5 46 SAEQ one to look out for in the 4-in-1 mower market!
Watch the full-length feature and, for the first time ever(!), discover how the AL5 46 SAEQ is positioned in terms of value, quality and ease of use.
VALUE:
With the AL5 46 SAEQ, you undeniably get a lot of bang for your buck. A small step in price from other models in the range will offer a leap in features.
On those fresh spring mornings when recoil start engines could be cumbersome to start- the AL5 46 SAEQ will spring immediately to life thanks to its Electric Start system.
And, of course, we can’t forget to mention the most significant value of all the AL5 46 SAEQ has to offer you. Its 4-in-1 cutting methods. Configuring your mower to meet the needs of your lawn has never been easier. Be it fertilising using the mulching capability, discharging clippings to the side, a simple cut-and-drop, or collecting in the 60L grass bag.
When you look at other leading brands offering 4-in-1, you’ll find the AL5 46 SAEQ sits in an attractive and honest position in the market.
EASE OF USE:
The self-propelled AL5 46 SAEQ will save you time and energy. You can cut through thick grass or on varying slopes without needing extra oomph from the operator. The single speed offers a mid-range ground speed suitable for most people and cutting conditions.
Amending the height of cut is also a doddle. On many mowers, you’ll find an adjusting lever on each of the rear wheels (and you know we’ve all done that thing where you’ve put one side on one setting and then had to look again when setting the other side). Well, that won’t happen with the AL5 46 SAEQ, no, Sir! You can set the height of cut from seven positions using the single adjusting lever.
All in all, we would absolutely love to give the AL5 46 SAEQ a 5 out of 5. However, there is a feature that could require some minor practice to get to grips with, that being if you can insert the mulch plug correctly the first time (no fibbing): you will have to let us know for when we’re hiring. There is a knack to it. Once you get it, you’re on a roll.
QUALITY:
Packed with power, the AL5 46 SAEQ sports a premium Stiga ST 140 LS OHV engine. Combine that with the Electric Start system, and you’ll find this mower will exceed your expectations in performance and reliability.
The AL5 46 SAEQ is also undeniably tenacious and robust. The steel deck protects the blade and undercarriage from accidental damage caused by slight knocks or flicked-up stones. The larger wheels also provide greater ground clearance and traction.
As with all our Alpina mowers, you can benefit from two years limited warranty (subject to an annual service). Ensuring you can gain appropriate support and any replacement, genuine parts on the off chance you encounter any issues with your machine.
So, there you have it! We hope you’ve thoroughly enjoyed episode one of Machines of the Month, keep your eyes peeled for what’s coming on our Facebook page.
