BOSCH AVR 1100 Verti Cutter Lawn Raker

Product Information

The need for extensive autumn preparation for overseeding was reduced, providing a superior turf both in the autumn and spring transition. I have stripped it down in case of a build up of grass, etc, and resorted to removing the main cover this week to allow more air in to keep the motor cooler, to no overall benefit.

I scarified it in spring with a hired petrol one and then re-seeded, and I’d now like to get my own, so I can do it twice a year. To make it even more comfortable to use, the handlebar is height-adjustable and foldable too, for compact storage. Some newer machines pick up any thatch they remove, but most don’t, so you’ll need to do some light raking afterward.

It is made up of dead and living plant shoots, roots, and stems and is below the layer of the grass blades.

There is also a very handy and well positioned central handle that makes carrying the 10 kg rake to the garage or shed very easy. It comes with both verticutter and dethatcher attachments as standard, making it easy to remove built-up thatch and moss from your lawn. Overall I think this is a fantastic lawn rake and I encourage everyone who wants to take care of their lawn and wants to make light work of scarifying your lawn to purchase one.Normally I would complain that levers mounted on the front wheels of a lawn rake are always more difficult to adjust than those mounted more centrally, however the design of the height adjustment lever on the Bosch seems to work very well. Too much thatch can smother your lawn, but raking up thatch is a hassle, and dethatchers can damage your grass. With my wealth of knowledge and expertise, I am confident that I can provide you with valuable insights and recommendations when it comes to selecting the right lawn mower for your lawn.
