Bosch Rotak 40
This lightweight lawnmower, at 12.3 kg, is one product that gets the job done quickly. When the Bosch Rotak 40 runs into a tough spot the 1700 Watt motor and state of the art gear set combine to adjust torque where needed.
Able to cut heights from 20 to 70 mm, this electric mower is ideal for sprawling lawns, but also features individual grass combs that allow the mower to cut right up to an edge.
With its Powerdrive motor the Bosch Rotak 40 is able to tackle long grass, and with 40 cm of cutting width it will cut swaths of lawn quickly and easily.
Powerdrive is a new operating system developed by Bosch, while longer grass will slow down a typical electrical mower the Powerdrive system allows this mower to be its most powerful at a lower speed. If the blade speed is reduced then the power is increased in order to sustain the cutting speed.
The Rotak is lightweight; at only 12.3 kg it is easily maneuverable. It features fold down handles and carrying handle, making it easy to lift and place in storage.
It also sports a 50 liter grass box for ease of use and convenience, because who wants to spend all their time emptying out the grass box? Longer mow time means a job finished quicker and cleaner.
This mower has also eliminated the annoying habit of other mowers to leave behind swaths of uncut grass, especially around flower beds and walkways. Rotak features inset front wheels that allow it to cut right up to the edge, ensuring that no strips are left behind, no later clean up with a weed wacker needed. You can also garner that professional striped lawn look with the stability enhancing rear rollers.
Just one lever allows the operator to adjust the height of lawn cuttings from 20mm to 70mm, making this machine a snap to operate. The package comes complete with a 15m cable, making this mower perfect for medium to large sized lawns.
While there may be some initial concern about the plastic that this Bosch machine is constructed of, as well as some need to do some slight assembly upon delivery, it goes together rather quickly and will soon prove to be a breeze to use in the garden.
The Rotak will cut your lawn quickly and easily and is light enough to actually hang up in a shed or garage, leaving more floor space than a typical metal, petrol powered mowing monster would.
Consumers have proved that they are very happy with this product. Of 347 reviews on Amazon, the Bosch Rotak 40 has earned 4.5 stars out of 5. While this mower may look like an inexpensive lawnmower for postage stamp sized yards, it actually packs a punch and will achieve surprising results in your garden.
Bosch also carries a newer model, the Bosch Ergoflex, which is essentially the same mower but with different handles and a smaller price tag.
The Bosch Rotak 40 comes with the Bosch guarantee of full 2 years parts and labor.
