How do I set a checkbox in razor view?

Question

I need to check a checkbox by default:

I tried all of these, nothing is checking my checkbox -

@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.AllowRating, new { @value

This works for me:

If you really wants to use HTML Helpers:

@Html.CheckBoxFor(m => m.AllowRating, new { @checked = Model.AllowRating})
