The Atco Admiral 16SE is almost identical to the Admiral 16S version, apart from featuring an electric key driven starting system, as opposed to a recoil, making it easier to get going.
The powerful 5hp Briggs and Stratton engine runs on unleaded petrol and makes mince meat out of the longest of grass, effortlessly slashing with its hardened steel blade. Together with the integrated rear roller, the Atco Admiral 16SE can produce a beautiful striped lawn.
Atco have developed three separate models of the Admiral, the 16, 16S and 16SE, giving you the option of a push or self propelled model with both key or recoil starting systems. The Atco Admiral 16SE is a self-propelled lawnmower, with a electric starting mechanism.
The height of cut is easily adjustable between 1cm and 6cm, by turning a single knob which raises and lowers the deck. When you've finished mowing the handles fold away neatly allowing for easy storage.
With a large 40cm cutting width, the Atco Admiral 16SE is ideal for medium or large sized lawns, and can easily deal with an uneven garden. Being petrol powered, there's no worry about getting tangled up in electrical cable either!

I changed to the Atco Admiral 16SE as I required a self propelled Mower to replace an old Flymo which was proving to be a little difficult to push around (I have recently had 4 x Heart Bypass) I actually purchased the mower in August 2008 but only began to use it 2/3 months ago - it is a delight to use - it has always started within one or two pulls on the cord pull or if battery is charged it starts easily using the key start - as for cutting and stability I can say it is truly remarkable and safe - I give it top rating without hesitation

Bought one of these to replace a flymo venturer turbo 4.5hp i wish i had not bothered,the grassbox is ill fitting and grass blows out the top (I fitted draught excluder strip to the sides to stop it) there is no grass box full indication and the machine is not very stable because the rear roller is not very wide and on a lawn that is not perfectly flat it rocks about, this machine is not a patch on my 15 year old flymo the only thing it beats it on is the electric start!
