Design
Nice and neat, looks stylish and is quite compact considering its scope. The antenna, whilst obviously necessary, is a slightly ugly addition to the garden, particularly if placed on the lawn – but it can be positioned on a nearby fence or garden roof.

Instructions & ease of use
It was slightly tricky to set up (understandably for such a hi-tech bit of kit), particularly as it has to connect to 4G (which was weak at the property), so it worked best when on the Wi-fi. Downloading the App was simple and offered lots of useful video clips, overall the functionality is first class. Working the Mapping feature is also easy as you literally control the mower with your phone around the perimeter of the lawn and back to the starting point – then you’re all set.

Assembly
Extremely easy – very few parts, just lay it all out, follow the instructions and that’s it!. The ruler (that allows you to keep 15cm from borders or garden boundaries) had a slight tendency to fall off, but it isn’t vital.

Performance
Really impressive – the first cut was probably set too low, but you’ll find the optimum cutting height (30-60mm), simply press the button and away it goes. Sit back and let the mower cut and mulch the grass. On a 200m2 lawn it took around 90 minutes and the results were excellent. The only slight grumble was that once left unplugged, the unit drains of power, so you’ll need to keep it plugged in or wait a few hours to charge the unit again.

Overall rating/conclusion
The Segway Navimow 1500E is a fantastic piece of kit, and totally redefines garden maintenance. After a number of uses you’ll never want to go back to a non-robotic mower!

‘EXCELLENT BOILER! Very pleased with my Worcester Bosch Greenstar 4000 30kw . Very efficient and very quiet! I have a 3 bedroom house and it serves all of my 9 radiators well. Excellent!’

‘Operation of Greenstar 4000. Boiler working well, as expected from a quality piece of engineering. Near end of October, yet to switch the heating due to high gas costs. But get me warm last winter. Really like control panel display, which is easy to navigate round, to check and change hot water and heating temperatures.’

‘Highly recommend this boiler I did considerable research into the most appropriate boiler for my needs, budget, life expectancy (many years) and habits but with an eye on the future of UK domestic gas supply and the likelihood of a manufacturer being able to provide adaptations. Worcester Bosch provide a good amount of information online. I chose the Greenstar 4000 and an installer from Which? Trusted Trader who could offer the extended 10 year guarantee. After 13 months and the first annual service, I am very pleased with the boiler and everything about it. It has performed faultlessly. The quality of equipment, accessories and finish are very high. The menus both on the boiler and the remote control are fairly easy to navigate. The water fill pressure tap is easy to locate and operate. I would recommend this boiler for reliability, comfort and convenience.’

‘Had a Worcester Bosch Greenstar 4000 fitted as a replacement to a 15+ year old boiler. It’s an extremely neat boiler and very quiet in operation. I was rather sceptical when told it would save a third on my energy bill but after a years use its saved well over a third. Completely satisfied and over the moon with it. Highly recommended.’

‘I am delighted to share my experience with the Bosch 2.6kw air conditioning system that we recently had installed in our home office by Heating Homes. From the very beginning, we were impressed with the level of professionalism and efficiency displayed by their team during the installation process. Our office is a log cabin situated in our garden, measuring 3m x 4m. Despite the compact space, the 2.6kw unit has proven to be more than capable of keeping the room at a comfortable temperature, regardless of the weather conditions outside. The cooling performance is exceptional, coupled with the air purification and we have even noticed its energy efficiency, which is an added bonus for our household. we where using fan heaters during the colder days and fans when it was warm. Moreover, the air conditioning system operates quietly, allowing us to work without any disturbances, and the sleek design seamlessly blends into our office décor. The intuitive controls make it easy to adjust the settings according to our preferences, and the system has been reliable since day one. As a family, we are eco-conscious, and we are delighted to see how the Bosch system incorporates energy-saving features.’

‘Very smart and modern looking units. Very easy to operate and use. Couldn’t be happier with the new systems and looking forward to using them in the hot or cold weathers.’

‘We invested in the Bosch Air Conditioning unit to primarily cool the upstairs of our 10 year old house. During the summer it gets very hot and having 3 young children in hot rooms means that they don’t sleep soundly. Now the unit has been installed over the landing area, it cools the upstairs down so quickly that we only need to run it for 30 minutes at a time before it makes the bedrooms nice and cool. If we want to, we can run the unit for 1-2 hours and it then makes the downstairs nice and cool as well. It has been a valuable addition to our modern house.’

‘The Greenstar Ri boiler is excellent. It is noticeably more effective than our old boiler for heating and hot water, and, after experimenting with flow temperature settings and radiator balance, the increase in our heating costs, given energy price rises, has not been quite as difficult as we feared.’

‘The Worcester Bosch Green Star 15 Ri was the perfect boiler installation for my home as was recommended by the installation company. It works really really well, is quiet and extremely efficient. This is a fantastic boiler and runs really smoothly. I would highly recommend it.’

‘Heats the house up quickly, quietly and reliable. I had a Worcester Bosch Greenstar Ri 24kw condensing central heating boiler installed just over 12 months ago and it has run faultlessly in that time. It has just received its first service with no issues arising. The main improvements over my previous, 22 year old boiler, are that it heats the house up much more quickly, is quieter and is reliable. It also seems to be cheaper to run although that is difficult to confirm, but the other improvements again have made its installation more than worthwhile and as a result I would definitely recommend this boiler.’

‘Great little, high efficiency boiler. Replacement for a 33 year old appliance. Good design and long warranty with the system filter fitted. Very happy.’
