Customer Review

By springlike weather I could already test the new lawnmower in February - and I'm thrilled.
But first things first. First, the assembly came: The actual lawn mower is fully assembled; the wheels are off; only the grass catcher and spars were assembled. The pictures in the instructions that were to explain that for me something to hide I found afterwards. But the operations were logically by looking at the parts and thus self-explanatory to me so I just came along well even without instructions. The mating (the parts click here a) grass box was a bit fiddly, because I made it on my own, but that is also, as a couple, there is absolutely no problem. To assemble the rails to be screwed on the screw on each side of a self-locking nut; but that's quite handy without tools, since both screw and nut stuck in a bracket that replaced the tool.
Now for mowing:
Until now I have 2 lawn mower, a small (32 cm cutting width) for the small, winding surfaces to which I have shall be taken away him over low walls; and a large 46 cm cutting width for large areas. This new Bosch is expected both to replace; the little he replaced safely, because he is incredibly light and agile and easy to carry through the central handle; and he he saves me by the greater cutting width a lot of time.
Excellent, I find the idea to put the front wheels slightly inward and to be mounted on the side grass combs with which you can drive very close to lawn edges along. These things I have tested intensively today and am not thrilled, but satisfied: Who does not want to have the perfect lawn edges, can dispense with additional lawn edging for the greater part.
The grass catcher is just the right size: not too small, so you would have to run continuously to empty, and not too large and thus too bulky.
One small thing I noticed negative: Already after the short test, the meter showed a small col, without that I would deliberately crashed into a stone or something else hard but probably was the yet so, so I give this no penalty.
If now I have something to report later in the spring after prolonged mowing, eg how he does with my larger lawns, I will add it here ...
Here are the supplements after repeated mowing larger areas: Because of its lightness and maneuverability I like him very well in my lawn with curved edges and trees in it, and I'll just quickly ahead with him as with my wider mowers. Only from a grassy area from 150 square meters but I prefer a wireless, so even a petrol Rrasenmäher, perhaps soon even a cordless mowers.
