Finding the Right Lawnmower: Buyer's Guide

A great-looking lawn starts with the right tool, but choosing a new lawn mower can feel like a complicated decision. It really comes down to what’s practical for your garden, your budget, and how you prefer to work. The size, power, and features of your lawnmower must match your lawn and individual requirements. If you're looking to buy a lawnmower, you should ask yourself a few questions beforehand:
- Budget: The lawnmower must not only meet your requirements but also fit your budget—Bosch offers machines in various price ranges. The prices of lawn care sets include battery and charger. If you already own a compatible battery, you'll save money.
- Local Conditions: Is a power source available and easily accessible? Then a corded electric lawnmower is a viable option. However, if it's not conveniently reachable or if your garden has many corners and obstacles, a cordless lawnmower is more suitable. How much storage space do you have available for the machine? Models with vertical storage capabilities are particularly space-efficient.
- Garden Type: The size and layout of your garden are decisive criteria when choosing a lawnmower.
Matching your Bosch Lawnmower to your garden size
- ≤ 150 m²: Small urban garden or terraced house with compact lawn (ROTAK18V-32, 32 cm cutting width)
- ≤ 200 m²: Semi-detached house with small to medium garden (ROTAK18V-34, 34 cm cutting width)
- ≤ 500 m²: Property with medium-to-large garden (ROTAK18V2-38, 38 cm cutting width, 2x18V)
- ≤ 600 m²: Large property with extensive lawn (ROTAK18V2-43, 43 cm cutting width, 2x18V, AdvancedRotak 36V-40 and AdvancedRotak 36V-44). Allotment Garden without power connection: Ideal for battery-powered solutions
The right lawnmower type becomes clear based on the available lawn area and garden type.
Making the final decision: Cordless, Robotic, or Corded?
After considering the aspects mentioned above, you can identify the best lawnmower for your needs. Assess your requirements based on lawn size, available storage space, and whether you prefer the convenience of battery power or the constant power of a corded connection.
For those ready to buy a cordless lawnmower, the ROTAK18V and 36V range offers cutting-edge features like brushless motors, mulching capability, and vertical storage. If you're looking to buy a lawnmower with maximum convenience, consider the VISIMOW18V robotic mowers that work semi-autonomously while you focus on other activities.
When it's time to replace worn components, remember that you can also buy lawnmower blade replacements and accessories to keep your machine performing at its best for years to come.
The additional features of individual models will help you fine-tune your choice according to your personal preferences, whether you're seeking the best cordless lawnmower, a quiet lawnmower for early morning use, or a strong lawnmower capable of tackling challenging terrain.
