Another Bosch Rotak. About five years old, still on original battery, and, still going strong. Very please with it. Also have Bosch cordless hedge trimmers, again, excellent.
I have a corded Bosch Rotak 34. It's Chinese shite, so flimsy that it only just about works. They didn't slash the price when they offshored it, did they?
It's hard work choosing a lawnmower!.
Just when you think you've found a good one you read a rubbish review or 10..
Leaning towards the Gtech CLM2 still but still looking.
A lot use 2 batteries which just sounds like a ballache really.
When our Flymo finally packed in (it was a dump rescue) after years of use, we decided to go cordless, so bought a mechanical cylinder mower that also doubles as an exercise machine.
Now there's a coincidence! A (properly addressed) leaflet came in the post about the same time as you posted that, inviting me to buy one for £299.99 with free delivery. Not tempted, as our corded Bosch is still working well, but if anyone else is interested, visit gtech.co.uk/TL82.Our Flymo's done 14 years, unfortunately the new ones aren't built the best or I'd have another (cordless).
Bit the bullet before work this moning and ordered the Gtech 2.0, 48v 1 hour charge, Intelligent blade speed control etc.
It was between that and the Bosch in the end, found a voucher online that brought the Gtech down to £300 with next day delivery so went for it.
Sick of reading about lawnmowers now..
