Aldi's latest deal! Look to have good specs (Very similar, if not identical, to the Bosch Rotak 43) with a great price, most 43cm lawn mowers retail at double the price of this.

I have one and I love it
plastic body is fine as it can take knocks and bumps. collector box can be little fiddly but great lawnmower otherwise

I also have a Rotak 43 and it's the best mower I have ever owned. Pity the cable is short and hardwired into it but other than that it works great and because it mows so wide it takes half the time.

Looking for my first lawnmower having recently moved and never had a lawn to speak of. Quick question, is this corded or cordless?

Got one of these last summer, so far it's been very good. Quite powerful and it's handy having such a wide cut on a bigger lawn as it now takes half the time.
so apparently which just reviewed this one, anyone knows the outcome ?

They have a 'first look' but not an official review yet. Summary at the bottom though was "Yes, this mower is fantastic value."
What it's good at:
"This is a really good budget mower. It makes a neat cut, picks up clippings well and has a roller to give you smart stripes. As it has large back wheels, it's smooth to steer and turn, which is great if you have an odd-shaped lawn.
The handles fold down neatly for storage and it's possible to get many angles from the toothed adjuster, making it great for most heights. The handle grip is made from foam, which makes it more pleasant to hold, especially in hot or cold conditions."
What's not so good:
"This is a budget mower, so the construction isn't as sturdy as pricier models. The wheels are a bit wobbly and you can hear them rattle if you're using the mower with the power off. The grass-collecting bag lets some grass blow through at the top. The fabric of the bag has quite large holes, so if you're mowing in very dry conditions it lets the dust through. It's not a deal-breaker, but it is irritating."
