The new Bosch Rotak 34 Ergoflex electric rotary lawnmower takes all the great performance of the Rotak 34, and brings it up to date. Introducing the new Ergoflex system for comfortable handling, the lawn mower was carefully designed to make mowing the garden a job you’ll truly love.
The Rotak 34 Ergoflex is packed full of incredible features to ensure you get a pristine lawn every time. The mower has a high torque 1400W ‘Powerdrive’ motor that enables it to tackle long grass with ease, so it’s perfect to tackle that start-of-season growth. Featuring innovative grass combs, this lawn mower is able to easily cut up to or over the edge of your lawn. It has a full 34 cm cutting width, making it ideal for small/medium sized lawns. For flexibility, there is a wide range of cutting heights, from 20 to 70 mm. There is even a rear roller for creating stripes.
Ergoflex System--for Practical, Comfortable Gardening
The new Bosch Ergoflex System is designed to provide effortless control and superior manoeuvrability whilst greatly reducing muscle and joint strain. Bosch Ergoflex Lawnmowers are the first ever garden products to achieve Ergonomic Certification.
Until now, you have had to settle for either quality or comfort. The sleek Bosch Ergoflex design, based around the comfort and simplicity of computer console handsets, ensures support and ease of movement. It can be operated left, right, one or two handed, horizontally or vertically, meaning the mower can be steered and controlled from 8 different grip positions to suit you. With an adjustable working height and multi-position handle, optimal power transfer is achieved. Plus, by adjusting to your body, you can improve posture and reduce muscle strain.
Features of the Bosch Rotak 34 Ergoflex
‘Bosch Powerdrive’: Giving You Maximum Power
Running at 3600 rpm, the Rotak 34 is lighter and faster than most other mowers on the market today. The high speed 1400 Watt motor and innovative gear set work together to give torque when needed. When the going gets tough, the torque automatically increases to work more powerfully, even under difficult conditions.
Grass Combs--Mow Right up to the Edge
With inset front wheels, the innovative grass combs on the Rotak 34 enable cutting of grass growing close to or over the edge of the lawn. This ensures that no strips of uncut grass are left behind even when cutting around flower beds, walls or paths.
Height of Cut Adjustment
A single lever enables you to quickly and easily change the height of cut from 20 mm to 70 mm to suit different lawn conditions. This gives you the control to get the result you want, with the simple flick of a switch.
Get Stripes with the Rear Roller
With the rear roller you can get that stately home look in your own garden, giving you precise stripes all over your lawn. Additionally, and importantly, the rear roller offers stability over lawn edges and prevents scalping.
Lightweight and Easy to Carry and Store--Plus 12 m Cable
Lightweight at only 10.5 kg, and with its fold-down handles and an integrated carry handle, the Rotak 34 Ergoflex is easy to carry and store. The Rotak 34 comes complete with 12 m of cable making it ideal for medium- to large-sized lawns.
Large Grassbox--Less Emptying
With a large 40 litre grassbox, you won’t have to spend as much time emptying grass cuttings--so more time can be spent gardening.

Customer Reviews
Fitting the handle was easy although I did overlook the step for putting the cable retainer plate under the right hand handle release lever and had to reassemble that. I missed seeing it on the diagram.
I've had trouble assembling the grass boxes of many of my past mowers and this was no exception. It requires the alignment of 11 locking tabs on the top section with the equivalent slots in the bottom section and, with the plastic tending to bend a little, this requires a bit of patience. If a tabs is not properly aligned before you apply pressure to lock the tabs in place it is almost impossible to dismantle the box again to resolve the problem. Do it in bright light because you have to peer inside the box to see the alignment.
Having assembled everything the only other snag I found was that the cable is not very flexible. It could have been covered with a softer plastic and I foresee problems with kinks when the weather is cold.
I had left my grass to grow to about 100 mm before the mower arrived so I was able to try it out with various cutting heights before settling on the one which suits my rather uneven grass. I was delighted with the ease of using the single lever height adjustment after my previous mower which required altering all 4 wheels. It took me some experimentation with the Ergoflex handle before I hit on my most comfortable position which was holding the 2 uprights for straight runs and moving one hand to the horizontal handle for turning - but each to his own. The motor is very powerful, the finished cut is excellent and the grass collection cannot be faulted. With plenty of ventilation along the sides of the grass box the grass is blown right to the back with no spillage. The side combs really do work as well.
This mower is certainly worth 5 stars and I have no hesitation in recommending it.
March 2013
Cut the grass yesterday on a very chilly morning. My reservations about the stiffness of the cable proved to be correct. It was impossible to straighten the cable which then reduced the moverability of the mower. Still pleased with the cutting performance. Just had the blade re-sharpened.
Easy to put together. Easy to push. Easy to mow. Easy to clean up after itself too - hardly any of the cut grass has been left on the garden, as opposed to how much the previous mower left...........it used to take as long to clean up after the mow, then it took to do it in the first place.........
In fact, so little was being left behind that I walked straight into the kitchen after the mow and didn't find any grass stuck to my trainers - or halfway up my calf.
The blade height adjustment is pretty easy to change, but don't lean on the mower while you do it - which I wouldn't have done if I'd read the instructions before doing it!
It did cut up to the edges of 95% of the garden - some parts of the borders remained uncut even with me trying a few times - but that has more to do with the flowers/grass border and angle of the grass at the edge that the mower's ability.
The hardest thing I found with this mower was putting the grass bucket together - it's a two-piece arrangement that you only have to put together once (just as well really).
It packs away reasonably easily too. And there was virtually no mess inside the 'blade chamber' at the end of the mowing.
All-in-all I'm really impressed with it.
Delivery was within a few days of it's launch, so no complaints there either. :)
Oh. And the price was as good as I could find anywhere.
I didn't expect a rotary mower to give me the same close cut as my ageing electric cylinder mower... but it did! More than delighted with the shortest cut finish. My new Bosch collected EVERY blade of cuttings and the side comb feature makes life so much easier near border edgings. It really works, not just a gimmick!
I am 6'4" tall and the adjustable handle means I no longer have to stoop. The ergonomic grips are a boon to my arthritic fingers and I can use either grip to keep the power on.
One word of warning... I assembled the mower in under 15 minutes but it took 2 people 30 minutes to clip the 2 halves of the grass box together!! (My only complaint) Simple once you figure out the best way to go about it... the instructions should include a "How to build the grass box".
However, mowing is a delight and I would recommend this model above any other. Hover? Don't bother!Long grass or short, this mower is value for money, don't buy anything cheaper.
So,one small niggle but lots of A* features and an ace performance.
Listmania!
