'Lightweight' Bosch lawnmower perfect for smaller lawns for less than £100
Customers have praised this Bosch electric lawnmower for how lightweight it is - meaning it's perfect to manoeuvre around smaller gardens and lawns.
If you've neglected your outdoor space since last summer, now's the time to survey the damage and get things back up to scratch. Our lawns can look the most unkempt at this time of year, after being left alone for so long.
That's why you might want to use this time to invest in a proper lawnmower to get the job done quickly and neatly. That's where the Bosch Electric Lawnmower ARM 3200 comes in - priced at £98.99 on Amazon and shoppers have been singing its praises.
If you're trying to be a bit more eco-friendly in how you garden, an electric model is just the thing. The Bosch device also has a decent capacity with a 31-litre grass box, meaning you don't have to stop quite as frequently to empty it out.
One of the best things about this lawnmower is how light it is - weighing just 9kg, making it incredibly easy to manoeuvre. Plus, it's fitted with a powerful 1200W motor to cut thick grass, has three cutting heights and comes with a replacement blade just in case something goes wrong and you need to swap it out.
Amazon customers have been wowed by the Bosch lawnmower, which has clocked up 4.5 out of 5 stars, out of 12,046 global ratings. "Great mower for the price, cuts really well, lightweight to use," one shopper enthused.
Many seemed to be new converts to electric lawnmowers - and it doesn't look like they'll be going back to petrol any time soon. "The best part...no filling with gas or running out and having to refill a hot mower, no checking the oil, no having to change sparks plugs or get tune-ups, no engine coughing or dying, no exhaust, and so much quieter," one shopper wrote.
A third said: "It's a decent mower, lightweight, adjustable cutting height and a grass collecting box. It has a long powered cord and easy to assemble. Suitable for small areas."
While only five percent of the reviews were one-star, those who weren't particularly pleased with the product seemed to be people who had bigger grassy areas to tackle. "This product is useless if the grass is longer than 10cm and you have a less than small garden," one customer noted. Another was unhappy with receiving a faulty product, writing: "It broke after the first use and my lawn is 2 metres across."
So how does it stack up against other lawnmowers on the market? It's pretty averagely priced. You can certainly get more expensive options out there - like the Webb Classic Petrol Self Propelled Rotary Lawnmower, available from B&Q for £279.99.
There are also cheaper models, such as the Black and Decker 1200W 30cm Electric Hover Mower, BEMWH551-GB for £46.99 on Amazon. They all cater to different needs, so it depends on what you're looking for in a lawnmower.
