[Closed] What Electric Mower?

Does anyone know if this [url= http://www.screwfix.com/p/bosch-rotak-32-1200w-32cm-rotary-electric-lawn-mower-240v/50202 ]Bosch[/url] is any good? There are a lot of very mixed and contradictory reviews!

I have a similar Bosch one which I bought last year, probably a bit further up the range as has more height settings. It's been fine so far, cuts well, is pretty lightweight and maneuverable, plenty of cable length.

I have the Bosch one from the link above. I think its a great a little mower. Consequently I don't actually use it anymore as I have a petrol mower as I moved and needed something bigger.

If you're in Nottingham you can have it for 30 quid if that helps.

I used that Bosch one for years at my last place, excellent.

We've just invested a whole £45 in B&Q's cheapest offering. If it only lasts one summer then it's not a lot lost.

Have a look at the AlKo mowers.

I always get second hand mowers from eBay like Mountfield or wolf garten, top draw mowers, but last for years.

Bosch Rotak + 1.

Mine is now in its 7th year and going strong.

I've got the Rotak 40, wouldn't want anything smaller and my garden is similar size to yours (perhaps a bit bigger).

I'm on my 3rd Bosch. They last about 3 years each then the motor just dies. I've got a reasonable size lawn maybe 130m2.

Thanks wilsonthecat, but unfortunately your a bit too far away 🙁

Thanks for all the feedback, it looks like I'll go for the little Bosch as I don't think I need anything bigger for our 40m2 lawn! I just need to lay the turf and and let it bed in first.

We're getting rid of a lightweight flymo. Where are you?

Thanks molgrips, but I'm also getting rid of a lightweight (and crap) flymo, as I'm laying new turf I was looking for something with wheels, adjustable height and metal blade!

My cheaper flymo is great and tbh ideal for my garden except that the blade was either too high or too low for my particular garden - that's the only reason I changed it.

Another vote for the Bosch Rotak range. I've had one for a year, used it two weeks ago to cut 1ft long wet lumpy field grass and it didn't blow up or burn out!
