BOSCH AVR 1100 Verti Cutter Lawn Raker

Product Information

The Bosch AVR 1100 has a very impressive 50 litre grass box, now this may not sound large, but when compared the Flymo at just 34 litres you will see this is large for a lawn rake of this size. The raking diameter of this lawn rake may seem a little on the small side with only a 32cm capability, that is 2cm smaller than its rival the Flymo. Now, compared to it’s other counterparts with widths of up to 43cm, this might be a potential disadvantage; however, it could also be beneficial if it’s to be used in a smaller areas and lawns with more narrow strips. So, exactly what is verticutting and what benefits does it actually deliver to make it worth the investment of time and equipment? Also known as vertical mowing, verticutting is the process of using vertical blades to remove thatch buildup on grass. Getting rid of thatch allows the turf to breathe easier and to better absorb important nutrients. Since the layer of thatch can exceed a half-inch, it can eat up the water, air, and nutrients that your turf needs to stay healthy. In addition, the verticutting process gives the turf a better opportunity to soak in moisture. Using a TurfTime verticutter will help alleviate this problem and build a foundation for truly healthy grass plants.

Bosch have gone someway to resolving this by providing longer bolts to connect the handles.Does this make it more practical than it’s closest competition? well, yes I think it does for people with smaller lawns and limited space for storage with the ability to get the job done without emptying the collection box as often.

When looking at a product of this type, it’s good to compare it to something that claims to be a similar product. I decided to compare it to the Flymo Lawnrake Compact 3400 Electric Lawnrake to understand what makes either of these electric rakes stand out in terms of performance, build quality and value for money. Both the Bosch and Flymo are of a similar price and size (32cm and 34cm rake width), both use a cylinder rake, however, the Bosch has slightly more power at 1100 W compared to 750 W of the Flymo.Over the years, I have honed my skills in writing informative articles and creating helpful videos for various blogs and publications.
