Good power from such a little guy

The product photo is misleading. It doesn't show the mains cable attached to the frame--which is a great deal more convenient than many electric mowers where you have to bring out an additional cable to operate the machine. The Bosch packaging is great but the instructions leave a lot to be be desired in assisting assembly.

The cutting width is narrow, of course, at 32 cm but for a small lot is it is fine. There is enough power in the motor to cope with slightly wet, though not soaking wet, grass. It is light to carry up and down the few steps that I have. I do not use the grass catcher as I prefer to mulch the grass with its own cuttings and there is some build up of clippings in the space where they would otherwise shoot out to the catcher. Clearing underneath is easy, however.

Changing the cutting height is a bit physically brutal as you have to pull against a quite strong spring system on each of the separate axles. It is probably not good for the frail user.

Overall, good value for money, seems to be quite sturdily built and so much better than the dreadful Flymo type equivalents.

WELL MADE. POOR LEVEL ADJUSTMENT

Construction good, but does not have lever for quick cutting level. Requires lifting the machine and adjusting the
wheel levels.. then not sure if you have the correct setting. Wife says it is not as good as the last Bosch and
cannot adjust the cutting level easily.

Does the job well

i previously had a cylinder mower but this rotary mower does a much better job. The only problem is raising and lowering the height. Apparently, this is done by moving the wheels which I find almost impossible. Surely, there must be an easier way. On my previous model (a Qualcast) this was achieved by simply moving a lever and could be done in about five seconds.I would have thought a company like Bosch could have made this really simpler.Read full review...

Light, portable, great for small gardens.

Light, portable, great for small gardens. Assembly diagram could be better and bigger for us oldies. Grass cutting height adjustment could be improved. Otherwise excellent product at a good price.

Lightweight and easy to handle - value for money lawn mower.

Lightweight and very easy to handle/manoeuvre. The grass catcher bag is a little small in comparison to the more expensive models. With it being a Bosch, however, I expect many years of grass cutting.

Lovely little lightweight mower. I have arthritis in my thumbs and it's so easy to lift this as its light, even with arthritis! It's not the most sturdy but for a small lawn it's great. Very happy with it!Read full review...

Lightweight - good value for small scale mowing

Will be interested to see how it lasts. Neat bit of design / engineering but beware - only suitable for small scale gardening. Bought this on-line ... probably would have spent more on next model up if I’d seen it in the flesh🤔Read full review...

Light weight so easy to use.

It was easy to use but think with the small box it would be ideal for a small garden ,I just had to empty more often ,it cut good.
