Bosch 060088A070 ALR Electric Lawn Raker, 900 W, 240 V

Product Information

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.

In my review of the Bosch ALR 900, I found that the 10 Double Steel Tines make it a great choice for removing dead grass and other debris 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. It’s worth mentioning that by raking on a higher setting to start and trying to avoiding very long or wet grass this should avoid not putting too much strain on the motor. When you need a lawn rake that’s light in weight and going to get in the smaller areas of your lawn, this may well be the best option.However, if your lawn has more deep-rooted weeds or you require a deeper cut, perhaps with a view to over or reseeding, then you will need the AVR 1100. Bosch have tried to compensate for the larger box by making the collection box dismantle into two pieces for smaller storage.

If you’re looking for a good lawn scarifier/rake for clearing moss, thatch, and leaves, then the ALR 900 will be more than sufficient. Measured values determined in accordance with EN 60745 Vibration total values (vector sum of three directions). Some of our products will be shipped directly from suppliers and so might have slightly different timescales. The 900w motor gives superior power and more torque for efficient moss removal, whilst the 2-piece, 50 L rear collection box reduces emptying trips and splits for storage .Just make sure you don’t set it at the shortest setting from the start when the lawn has significant growth, instead start at a much higher setting and gradually work your way down. Absolutely delighted with the lawn raker, compact, easy to handle and makes such easy work of raking the lawn. A large 50-litre collection box lets you spend more time raking before you have to empty it, so you can finish the task in one go. Featuring a powerful 900 watt high-torque 'Powerdrive' motor, the Bosch Lawnrake also features a specially designed raking cylinder. Jet Collect’ system – This is innovative from Bosch, the drum has profiled air inlets that helps to not only make the collection of thatch, moss or leaves more effective but also the addition air flow pressure helps to compact the debris into the drum preventing clogging and increasing the amount collected.

There is also a very handy and well positioned central handle that makes carrying the almost 10 kg rake to the garage or shed very easy. The Bosch ALR 900 is one of the best selling lawn rakes in the UK right now, but does it live up to the Bosch reputation for quality and functionality? As a seasoned expert in the field of garden power tools, I have dedicated over a decade to working with and reviewing a wide variety of lawn mowers. Well there are a few factors to consider first, whether or not you purchase this model really depends on your garden and situation. Now Europe's number one home appliance brand, Bosch have contributed to making life easier since 1933.

Say goodbye to the unpredictable weather and hello to a cosy and efficient way to keep your clothes in top condition. The ‘Jet Collect’ system on the Bosch does seem to, perhaps, just make it the slight winner when it comes to collection of wet leaves on the lawn for example.

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. Remember this rake has a large 50 litre collection box so less stops to empty helps to get the job done quicker.The purpose of a lawn rake is to free your lawn from moss, weeds, thatch and leaves, and I can honestly say that once you have used an electric lawn rake you will wonder how you ever managed without one. If you have the serial number available then please select it from the list below to ensure you get the right part first time. Bosch have done this to reduce the storage space required for the collection box as it can be split into two sides when not in use. The Jet Collect system is clearly a feature that makes a real difference to the job in hand, the collection box capacity is increased and the ability to collect the debris is improved – Great job Bosch!
