Bosch AdvancedRotak 36-660 Review

The Bosch AdvancedRotak 36-660 Cordless Lawnmower is a high performance, manoeuvrable and quiet mower which is suitable for lawns up to 660 square metres in size. It has a large 40cm cutting width and a 7-stage adjustable height between 25mm and 80mm. It's powered by a 2000mAh long life battery as opposed to a conventional power cable. The main advantage of this is there being no risk of catching power cables with the blade.

In terms of manoeuvrability, the Bosch AdvancedRotak 36-660 is lightweight (16.5kg) and has ErgoSlide handles which can be adjusted in various ways for more comfortable pushing and to maintain good posture. The mower's ProSilence technology is also of interest. It both reduces the noise output and balances the acoustics.
