Worked right out of the box (I've always wanted to say that but as I mostly review books I haven't been able to until now) well, after a bit of assembly. I've used it several times and it is very maneuverable owing to the fairly large wheels. Makes a suitably throaty operating noise so the neighbours will know when your out cutting with your Bosch.
The range of cut heights is excellent. The wheels are raised or lowered by a chunky gear lever devise and it does take a bit of getting used too because it works in conjunction with a strong spring. A really nice touch is the carrying handle on the top, seems such a simple idea but plenty of electric mowers don't have it. My only crit is the roller to create stripes is not as wide as the actual cutting strip but as few folks round here will see them I can live with that.
Tip for a long lasting machine: After use I always get rid of grass cuttings with an old paintbrush and my previous Qualcast rotary lasted fourteen years (far longer than manufacturers would like) but now too old, in fact, to replace the cutting blade so I chose a Bosch and so far a good buy.
 excellent mower, but if there's a homebase / B&Q near you, it is significantly cheaper there! November 18, 2007

out of the box and took only 5 mins to assemble. Works straight away and is a efficient and all-the-same quiet mower. But it did take a week for the order to come through, so as stated in the title - pick one up at your local store for an even cheaper price!

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A NEW BOSCH ROTAK 36 AND WOW! WHAT LOVELY MOWERS THEY ARE. THIS IS THE BEST MOWER THAT I HAVE EVER USED. I BOUGHT IT TO REPLACE A FLYMO 330 COMPACT THIS WAS THE BIGGEST LOAD OF RUBBISH I HAVE EVER PURCHASED IN MY LIFE,AFTER DOING EVERYTHING EXCEPT CUTTING THE GRASS, IT FINALLY WENT UP IN A CLOUD OF SMOKE. SO IF YOU AFTER A FIRST CLASS NEW MOWER BUY A BOSCH.

I bought this to replace a burnt out flymo and this is easily the best mower I have ever used. The construction is solid and the grass collection the most efficient I have ever seen.
