We have a ptrol Mountfield which I jhate starting as I have a bad shoulder.
I thought this might make life just a bit easier.
The mower is easy to start and if you read the instructions incredibly easy to assemble. There is even some charge on the battery so you can see it work once assembled.
It is very light and easy too use. The battery comes out with the pop of a button. The hopper just clicks into place.
So if you want a light weight easy start then this is it.

Thank you Bosch..
We all hate mowing the lawn and not wanting a petrol mower the only alternative is electric with the hassle of cables and worrying about cutting the lawn when it's damp - which lets face it happens most of the time in a UK summer.
I've been keeping an eye on cordless mowers over the past few years and up until now they've always seemed to be a bit of a gimmick that take heavy, car-battery sized batteries that don't last all that long. Now with Li-Ion battery technology all that has changed. Thankfully.
My lawn is rough! A mixture of grass and is far from level. Having now used this mower for a couple of cuts - both with medium to long grass I can say it is a absolute joy to use. It's light, easy to handle and powerful enough to get through longish damp grass, and no cables!!! It cuts better than my previous 2 Flymo electric mowers and is quicker to use as it's so light.
My only ctricism is that it's difficult to tell how full the grass box is, and grass tends to go everywhere if you are emptying it when too full. But it's really a minor thing as it's no hassle to just empty it more often.
Some reviews I have read of the 43cm model criticise the grass box that is flimsy as it comes in 3 parts. This model has a grass box that comes in 2 parts - the box itself and a lid - which is much better and I had no problems assembling it and it doesn't feel too flimsy to me.
I agree that some parts do feel a little bit flimsy although this is the same with almost any product you buy these days. However overall it is of typical Bosch construction and feels like it is built to last reasonably well.
The battery does everything it says it does and so far I can only describe it as superb! Take Bosch's advice though - and consider the model you need for the size of lawn(s) you need to cut.
Sure, it's expensive. However, having bought 2 cheaper electic mowers in the past 4 years, one of which broke down after 18 months and both of which I found a pain to use I think the extra expense is worth it to make mowing my lawn less of a chore.

I purchased this after reading a favourable review in Which Magazine. It was to replace a Bosch Rotak 40 to save the bother of unwinding and winding the extension cable and making sure it is not in the way during mowing.
The cut is good, it is easy to manoevre and it does make light work of mowing the lawn. The battery seems to be adequate for my lawn despite its smallish size and the only drawback seems to be that the battery can't be stored below 0 degrees C.

This is a good rotary mower but to achieve the battery life in the advertisements you need to push the mower at a fair walking pace with the blades set to a height of 3 out of 7 settings on fairly short, reasonably dry, grass. To encourage you Bosch have fitted a block (which can be easily removed) preventing you from trying a low cut.
I should perhaps have bought the next size up with two batteries but my lawn did satisfy the requirements in the advert.
