Bosch Rotak 32R Electric Rotary Lawnmower - Ideal for Small and Mid-sized Gardens, 32cm Cutting Width, Grass Comb, Powerful 1200W Motor, 31-Litre Grass Box

Product Information

The small frame of the 32R means that storage isn’t a problem. Not only is the mower lightweight, but the cord can be stowed away easily thanks to the cable tidy feature. Users can also fold the handle, which means it can be stored in the tightest of spaces without any hassle. Overall The Rotak 32 comes with a 31 litre box that’s easy to empty and a powerful and sharp 32cm blade that cuts the grass with precision and ease.

Once again, Bosch has found a great compromise between the two. As this mower is designed for small to medium gardens the 31 litre capacity of the grass box is ideal. It will let you zip around the garden easily without dragging you down whilst still keeping the trimmings neat and easy to dump. Cutting a larger garden is no hassle, it just means more trips to empty the grass bin, not the end of the world. So, is Bosch Rotak 32r lawn mower is a practical option when compared to other similar models? Yes, it might be a perfect investment if you own a small or average-sized lawn. The mower is easy to carry because of the low weight of 6.8 kg. Plus, there is a convenient carry handle, which helps you to take it to the garage or shed without any hassle. The grass combs, sharp blade, and powerful motor provide a clean cut, and the rollers give the lawn a professional striped look. It also comes with a good range of cutting height options and a decent steel blade, as well as other standard features you would expect from a quality lawn mower.

For the most part, there is very little reason not to invest in the Rotak 32R, it just pays to ensure that it is able to meet your needs when it comes to mowing your garden. If you have something of a large garden, the 32R will be able to meet the demands, but it could mean numerous trips emptying the grass collector. The grass box on the Bosch Rotak 32R is very easy to remove and the grass clippings empty from the box with no obstructions. While not suitable for every type of lawn, the 32R does come with cutting heights between 20 to 60 cm, making it ideal for those who have relatively small, flat lawns to contend with. While it is by no means the biggest and most powerful lawnmower around, unless you have a jungle to contend with it will do a perfectly good job with ease. Bosch 32R has a metal blade instead of plastic, so you can sharpen it whenever required. Its cutting width is 32 cm, which is perfect to cover a small or medium-sized lawn. The unit has 3 cutting heights available between 20 to 60 mm, which customizes the appearance of your lawn.

Before we dive into the review, I often get asked about the difference between the 32 and the 32R models. It’s actually quite simple – the Bosch Rotak 32 does not have a rear roller, while the Bosch Rotak 32R (R=Roller) does. This roller allows you to create professional-looking stripes on your lawn, if that’s something you’re interested in. One person mentioned that the Rotak 32 is so easy to use that although she’s in a wheelchair, she has no problem using it. While such a small model won’t be for everyone, it does actually offer those who find gardening a little difficult a lifeline. Many people with a series of ailments may find the shuddering of other mowers a little too intense when mowing the grass. As the Rotak 32R partners a good effective motor within such a small model, owners are feeling the benefit when putting the mower to task in the garden, and it certainly doesn’t fail to impress. Handling Top Tip: You get a 2 year warranty with your new mower as standard, but you can upgrade that to 3 years for free if you register it with Bosch after purchasing. The blade size may mean that it takes longer to cut large areas of lawn, but the advantage is that it makes the mower more precise and easier to move.The 32 cm cutting diameter of the Rotak 32R is ideal. It will allow you to zip around the garden in no time but still give the precision and ease of movement for curves and edges.

But, Bosch Rotak 32R is very lightweight and easy to use. It moves over the lawn grasses without much effort and gives you smooth edges due to inbuilt grass combs.

Simply attach it to an electric drill and sharpen the blade on most rotary and hover lawnmowers and even other garden tools such as shears More information Users of the Rotak 32R will notice that the front wheels are inset, which makes it more useful for trimming close to the edge than that of a hover mower. Those who want to add that additional touch to their handy work can also make use of the grass combs that come included, making for a finer cut. The lawnmower also comes included with rear rollers, which look to add aesthetically-pleasing lines to your garden should the fancy take you. Storage Like any mower, the Rotak 32R has both its pros and cons. For the most part, the 32R doesn’t fail to impress. Although a more limited model when compared to other mowers in the Rotak series, it’s no shrinking violet either. While it doesn’t have the growling masculinity of many other mowers, it’s not exactly easy on long grass either. Despite its small frame, the Rotak 32R actually contends with grass effortlessly in many instances. This can be attributed to the 1200-watt motor that is embedded within the slender chassis. When partnered with a 32cm sharp blade, you know you’re in good hands when it comes to maintaining your lawn. On the other hand, the small length is perfect for users who mow regularly. Regular grass cutting is anyway required in the months of summer and spring because the grass keeps growing in these seasons. Lawn size recommendations: Small to medium (ok for larger lawns but the box will need to be emptied more often)

Another thing Bosch products are well known for is a great safety record. Obviously, if not used correctly, any lawn mower can be dangerous but Bosch has done everything they can to make the Rotak 32R as safe as possible without reducing its effectiveness.

The Rotak 32R does not have mulching facilities. This is normal for lawn mowers in this price range and class. One thing to keep in mind is that, like all corded lawn mowers, the cord may require an extension for larger lawns and care should be taken to avoid cutting it while mowing. Bosch is reputed to produce some easy to use, reliable and durable lawnmowers. Rotak 32R belongs to the same lot. It has a long-lasting construction and easy usage. As this is a corded machine, you might need an extension box to cover large lawns. Plus, you have to be careful of its power cable while cutting the grasses. The Bosch Rotak 32R is a powerful corded electric mower Compact and lightweight at just 6.8kg, does it deliver on performance? It is essential that your lawn mower is highly adjustable to accommodate different lawn types as well as to accommodate for the different seasons. The Rotak 32R gives you a choice of 3 settings ranging from 20mm to 60mm on the rear wheels. No matter what type of lawn you have or what your seasonal requirements are, this mower will be perfectly adjustable for your needs.Bosch is a well-known brand for well-priced, hardworking, and reliable garden tools. The German-based company has been around since 1886 and is trusted and popular for its products’ ease of use. Is 3 separate cutting lengths better than the competition, well no. Most mowers at this price point will have 5 height adjustments, so 3 is a little disappointing but not a show stopper! If you are cutting a sports field, the bigger the cutting diameter the better. With gardens, however, this is not the case. Compared to its closest competition, the 32R is more practical for people with smaller lawns and limited storage space. At only 9 kg, it’s also easy to carry to the garage or shed, thanks to a well-positioned central handle. However, there is a small problem in adjusting the cutting height. First, you need to shut down the machine and flip it upside down to change the cutting height. It cannot be a deal-breaker for most of the users. But, make sure that the power cable is unplugged.
