FAQ
Is the Bosch Rotak 32 or Flymo EasiMo easier to store?+
Both fold down for storage, but the cordless Flymo EasiMo has no cable to coil up, making it slightly quicker to put away in a shed or garage after mowing.
Which mower is cheaper to run — corded or cordless?+
The corded Bosch Rotak 32 costs almost nothing to run since it draws mains electricity directly. The cordless Flymo EasiMo relies on a rechargeable battery, which will eventually need replacing every few years, adding a modest ongoing cost.
