 21st Century lawnmower August 14, 2008

At last! Bosch have made a really good cordless electric mower that is well worth the extra 100 or so to replace a heavy corded mower. My two small lawns (about 4m x 4m each) used to take over half an hour of hard work to get in shape and that can now be done in less than half the time using the Bosch Li37. Bosch have now done for lawnmowing what Dyson did for vacuuming. There's no going back!

Prior to purchasing this mower I was undecided between this and the larger Rotak 43. My existing mower is a 40 cut. My rear lawn is approximately 10 x 10 and my front 10 x 5 metres. That is a total of 150m2 and the mower is good for 300 according to Bosch. That is short grass in dry conditions with the cut set to medium. Additional batteries are available but they cost around 90.00.
The battery took 30 minutes to be fully charged whilst I assembled the mower. Assembly of the mower was quite easy to do. Most difficult part was tightening the two screws that secured the handle into the mower. No problems with the grass box. Instructions were quite small to read though.
I found the default grass height setting of 3 hopeless and had to set the mower to 1. A plastic insert requires removal for you to achieve this. Possibly you are discouraged from using the lower cut to save battery power. In use I found the mower very easy to manoeuvre and obviously so much easier without a cord. The lawn looked very good after cutting.
The battery had faired well and the indicator showed two green LEDs lit indicating a 1/3 of the power remaining. The grass was dry and about 25mm in height. It seem like there should be sufficient spare battery capacity to deal with longer or wetter grass. The grass box was emptied three times. With it being the smaller of the two mowers there was no problem in emptying the grass into the green waste bags.
In summary for my garden size the Bosch Rotak 37 has been a good choice. It's light and easy to manoeuvre and store. Cutting the lawn was almost a pleasure.
The best a (smallish) lawn can get? May 20, 2008

Our rough and ready lawn has never looked better since the cordless Rotak took over cutting duties from the Hopeless Hover.
As with other reviewers, I wanted to get away from the fuss and bother of petrol and cable, and have found this machine perfect for our smallish front and back lawns. Very easy to use and manoeuvre, it's almost done away with the need for a separate strimmer for round the edges and trees, and produces passable stripes which make it look as though I'm a keener gardener than I am.
All in all, thoroughly recommended - the best mower I've ever had, and I've had a few.
 Bosch Rotak 37 Li - ingenious use of rechargeable battery May 9, 2008

This is a good rotary mower but to achieve the battery life in the advertisements you need to push the mower at a fair walking pace with the blades set to a height of 3 out of 7 settings on fairly short, reasonably dry, grass. To encourage you Bosch have fitted a block (which can be easily removed) preventing you from trying a low cut.
I should perhaps have bought the next size up with two batteries but my lawn did satisfy the requirements in the advert.

I purchased this after reading a favourable review in Which Magazine. It was to replace a Bosch Rotak 40 to save the bother of unwinding and winding the extension cable and making sure it is not in the way during mowing.
The cut is good, it is easy to manoevre and it does make light work of mowing the lawn. The battery seems to be adequate for my lawn despite its smallish size and the only drawback seems to be that the battery can't be stored below 0 degrees C.
