amazon supplied the rotak with free delivery and a large saving.Delivery was quick with no problems The box looked big and the parts looked complicated but I had a friend who put it together for me The general comment that it was not paticularly easy, paticulary the grass box.I have used it today and found it brilliant paticularly after my qualcast cylinder model which was awful.The edging system is great and it leaves good lines.The grass box is adequate and easy to empty,although the cable is slightly short for my usage.The bigger Rotak 40 has a longer cable and might be worth considering if one does not want to bother with extension cables, but at 30 pounds extra is probably not worth the extra.The cable tidy for the handles are worth the extra three pounds or so and these can be obtained from Amazon.The carrying handle is a clever idea and works.All in all the best machine I Have owned
Bosch Rotak 34 August 22, 2008

Mine landed today from Amazon, this is the best mower I've ever owned. Makes my old Flymo look quite shabby. Easy to assemble, light, and will cut any lawn whether long, wet or carpet grass. There's plenty of height adjustment with this mower. I had some pretty wet long grass on the back lawn (about 60cm and laying flat) the Rotak 34 made it a breeze with the very powerful 1400 watt motor. I'd recommend this mower to anyone.
BEST MOWER SO FAR August 2, 2008

I would never go back to a flymo, this is so much better, it cuts better than a flymo, cuts close to walls, it is very light compared to a flymo, very easy to use. also with the flymo it would leave cut grass on the pavement that i would have to sweep, this don't so no sweeping, takes third of the time to cut my lawn than with a flymo. it was also quieter than the flymo
the only downside is two things 1, i found the lead harder to cope with than the flymo having to wrap it round the handles, 2, also the lever to adjust your grass length was hard to use.
the best mower, don't go back to a flymo, this saves time and leaves your garden looking better.
so glad i did my research. July 2, 2008

I had my heart set on a cylinder mower after my black and decker rotary, and petrol rotary had both packed up. Research and reviews however dissuaded me from the popular Qualcast cylinder, and pointed me in the direction of the Bosch Rotak range. I bought one yesterday and, despite having wet grass, mowed both my lawns. The results were really impressive, with the height adjustment easy, the mower being very light and manoevreable, and the collection box doing exactly what its mean to do. My lawns look great, and I am very happy with my purchase. It really pays to do your research, and my thanks go to all previous reviewers for this, and other products.
Brilliant Mower June 16, 2008

Ordered this on a Friday it was delivered early on the following Monday. Cut my wet grass brilliantly, my Qualcast Cobra 32 mower couldn't cope with wet grass and was always clogging up the grass intake to the box. The only snag so far with the Bosch mower was the grassbox. On assembly the handle fell off and on contacting Amazon they refunded part of the price. A joiners clamp and a touch of super glue got the offending handle back on. This is far the best cutting mower I have owned and I've had a few over the years. Lovely striped finish and no clogged grassbox
