Bosch Lawnmower AdvancedRotak 650 (1700 Watts, Cutting Width: 40 cm, Cutting Height: 25-80 mm, Lawns up to 650 m², in Carton Packaging)

Product Information

Since the cutting height ranges from 25 mm to 80 mm, this lawnmower is unlikely to struggle with tall grass. I tried it on the highest setting (7) on shorter patches of grass, and setting 5 on taller areas. Both times, it cut at just the right height.

Buy Online With Confidence The Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 comes with a full 3 year manufacturers warranty covering both faulty materials and faulty workmanship, it does not cover general wear and tear or damage, blades and other consumables. The lawnmower comes with a 10-metre power cable. If more range is required an extension cord will be needed. This length of power cable is relatively standard for electric lawn mowers. The grass box does come with a handy gauge indicating when the grass box is getting full, again a nice touch as not all mowers have this.

Even though I need the UK’s best electric lawn mower that can cut around tight spaces, I’d still invest in the Bosch Advanced Rotak 650 purely for its simplicity. Plus, since the handlebars are ambidextrous, this is perfect for my family. With the Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 you get an integrated height adjustment feature that is so good and makes adjusting the height a breeze. The handle is located centrally and there is a perfectly placed button that is pressed to either raise or lower the mower. Again see my video above to see just how good this feature is.Even though I referred to the instructions throughout the assembly, everything was simple and self-explanatory. As long as you’re being safe, you shouldn’t need to rely on the manual to put this mower together. Their expertise is very apparent in their present range of lawn mowers and garden tools as it includes products, which no other garden machinery manufacturer produces. The Rotak electric and cordless lawn mowers demonstrate the company's willingness to innovate with features like grass combs that enable you to mow right up to the lawn's edge and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that have virtually no weakened performance after extended use. As the AdvancedRotak 650 is designed for huge lawns up to 650sqm, it makes sense to have a sizeable grass box to gather all the cuttings! The 50L grass box offers a good capacity and probably won’t need emptied unless you are mowing on an especially large lawn. As this lawnmower is very large, with a huge capacity grass collector and a wide cutting width, it would be best suited to either someone with a medium-to large lawn with no tight corners, someone with a lawn that’s heavily strewn with leaves or someone with reduced mobility who needs to make mowing less of a chore.

The Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 has strong 41 cm hardened and ground steel blade. Whilst these will need to be sharpened occasionally, they will provide a clean, neat cut and they are extremely durable. If you ever need to replace them, parts are easily available and reasonably priced. The video below from Bosch shows the ProSilence in action. It shows the AdvancedRotak with ProSilence at different distances and compares it to a mower (Rotak 43) without ProSilence. This should clearly show the benefits of the feature. The grass box on both the 750 and 650 have a solid top and bottom and a woven material side. This allows the grass collection box to be folded nicely flat to reduce storage space. There are a couple of small negatives with this type of grass collection box:-

Healthy and comfortable mowing posture

The Bosch AdvancedRotak 36-660 is a cordless lawn mower that charges its batteries in around 65 minutes and produces 50 minutes of run time. It has a large 50 litre grass box, a 40cm cutting width and 7 cutting heights that range from 25mm to 80mm. The Bosch AdvancedRotak 36-660 Cordless Lawnmower is best suited to lawns up to 650m² in size. Another addition worth mentioning in the list of design features is the ambidextrous handlebars. On the handlebars, there are four different buttons you can use to start the lawnmower, so you can decide which is most comfortable. Before we go into more detail of the differences between these two models, I have summarised the differences below and created a handy comparison table:- The 41 cm size is ideal for medium to large lawns as it gives a good combination of speed and efficiency whilst still being easy to manoeuvre. However, if you do need to use the instructions, the images and text are extra-large and easy to read.

Equipped with many impressive features, the Bosch Advanced Rotak 650 didn’t disappoint in this area. It has a patented ProSilence sound system (designed to reduce sound output by up to 75%), 7 easily adjustable cutting heights, a leaf collector blade and side combs that enable close edge cutting. The Bosch Advanced Rotak 650 has very few design flaws. The only exception for me is the mesh grass collector. Even though the lid is made of plastic, I find mesh material can easily split, especially when mowing damp grass. Plus, it’s hard to clean. The other great feature of this mower is the ProSilence that reduces the noise level of this motor by up to 75%. I was sceptical at first but was pleasantly surprised at the low noise level of what is a very powerful motor. The Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 model also has grass combs for great edges and corners as well as LeafCollect to gather leaves as you work on the lawn. The Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 features a 1700 watt powerful motor designed to cut larger and more demanding lawns whilst still providing a professional cut. This is assisted by the large amount of cutting heights that I will cover that later in this review.The Advanced Rotak 650 is one of Bosch’s more powerful corded lawnmowers. Designed with the user in mind, its features have clearly been designed to make life easier. Positioned at the higher end of the price scale, the Bosch Advanced Rotak 650 is equipped with a 1700W engine, 7 cutting heights, and a built-in LeafCollect blade. This rounds up and shreds leaves on medium to large domestic lawns. The Bosch AdvancedRotak 650 is a great all round mower that is designed for the maintenance of medium-to-large sized lawns.

Faster and better results along edges

Having a large grass box is a bit of a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it means that all the trimmings are collected and you need to make less trips to empty it out. A smaller grass box or no grass box will make the lawnmower much lighter and easier to navigate. The Bosch Advanced Rotak 650 was easy to manoeuvre, but there’s no denying that it’s heavier than most. With a weight of 16 kg, it was noticeable when carrying. Despite the heavy weight, the wide carry handle on the base made life easier. I could fit both hands underneath it, which is rare.
