Worth the money
This mower is great. This weekend I mowed my front lawn and it took 4 mins from unlocking the shed to get the mower out, to locking it back up afterwards (OK, its not a huge lawn). With my old mower, I'd have still been looking for the extension lead in this time. Because it is so quick to use, I cut the lawn more often and the lawn is now much better as a result. Also, the lack of a cable means I can weave through the many kids toys that inevitably litter my lawn without having to retrace my steps like I used to. Its a lot of money - but its well worth it.

almost perfect
i love this mower. it's light, manoeuvrable and cuts very well. the only problem is the short battery life; it simply doesn't last as long as it promises, and certainly not at the lowest cutting level. if your lawn is larger than average, it's worth thinking about the larger rotak 43, as i wish i'd done. still, this is a great, well-built and reliable mower, streets ahead of any hover or electric mower.

21st Century lawnmower
At last! Bosch have made a really good cordless electric mower that is well worth the extra £100 or so to replace a heavy corded mower. My two small lawns (about 4m x 4m each) used to take over half an hour of hard work to get in shape and that can now be done in less than half the time using the Bosch Li37. Bosch have now done for lawnmowing what Dyson did for vacuuming. There's no going back!

Expensive but good
Prior to purchasing this mower I was undecided between this and the larger Rotak 43. My existing mower is a 40 cut. My rear lawn is approximately 10 x 10 and my front 10 x 5 metres. That is a total of 150m2 and the mower is good for 300 according to Bosch. That is short grass in dry conditions with the cut set to medium. Additional batteries are available but they cost around £90.00.

The battery took 30 minutes to be fully charged whilst I assembled the mower. Assembly of the mower was quite easy to do. Most difficult part was tightening the two screws that secured the handle into the mower. No problems with the grass box. Instructions were quite small to read though.

I found the default grass height setting of 3 hopeless and had to set the mower to 1. A plastic insert requires removal for you to achieve this. Possibly you are discouraged from using the lower cut to save battery power. In use I found the mower very easy to manoeuvre and obviously so much easier without a cord. The lawn looked very good after cutting.

The battery had faired well and the indicator showed two green LEDs lit indicating a 1/3 of the power remaining. The grass was dry and about 25mm in height. It seem like there should be sufficient spare battery capacity to deal with longer or wetter grass. The grass box was emptied three times. With it being the smaller of the two mowers there was no problem in emptying the grass into the green waste bags.

In summary for my garden size the Bosch Rotak 37 has been a good choice. It's light and easy to manoeuvre and store. Cutting the lawn was almost a pleasure.

The best a (smallish) lawn can get?
Our rough and ready lawn has never looked better since the cordless Rotak took over cutting duties from the Hopeless Hover.

As with other reviewers, I wanted to get away from the fuss and bother of petrol and cable, and have found this machine perfect for our smallish front and back lawns. Very easy to use and manoeuvre, it's almost done away with the need for a separate strimmer for round the edges and trees, and produces passable stripes which make it look as though I'm a keener gardener than I am.

All in all, thoroughly recommended - the best mower I've ever had, and I've had a few.
