First disappointment with BoschSeptember 27, 2004 W Michael Murray(Aberdeen United Kingdom) 58 out of 58 found this review helpful
Normally a reliable brand name but this machine is very disappointing. The grass tends to collect in front of the cutting tines and not in the box. Also box holds very little grass, moss etc. Have to scarify with machine without box and use lawnmower to collect debris.

The raking mechanism is fine, but the 'collection' is poor. One needs to stop frequently to clear the grass etc. from the top of the tines and move it into the collection box. One can only hope the on/off switch is sufficiently robust to take the exrta workload!
Good productMarch 3, 2008 Black Dog(Hartlepool, England) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Although the construction doesn't appear very robust, it performs remarkably well. Trying to manually rake a lawn of any size is back-breaking work & therefore this electric lawn rake / scarifier works a treat.
The grass collection box is small and does require frequent emptying. It is suprising how much moss & thatch that normal lawnmowing isn't able to remove.
After a couple of years use in both spring and autumn(also using feed & weed granules), my lawns are totally transformed.
Great brand. Poor performance.May 5, 2008 Philip H. Lewis(Scotland) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this product based on the Bosch brand. However it is an insubstancial machine and the grass collection box simply does not work well. It gets clogged easily and needs constant clearing to make any progress. It works well without the collecting box but that just means extra work. As it is a Bosch it will probably last longer than my patience.
