Where the Bosch ART 30 works best
The Bosch ART 30 grass trimmer is designed for homeowners who want a plug-in solution with enough capacity for more than just tiny lawns:
- Lawn edges and borders – tidy along paths, patios and flowerbeds after mowing.
- Around trees, posts and garden features – reach where a rotary mower cannot fit, while the plant protector helps prevent damage.
- Small to medium gardens – ideal where an outdoor socket and extension cable can reach all areas.
Because it is corded electric, the ART 30 offers continuous runtime with no batteries to charge and no petrol to store. For many domestic gardens, that means simple, low-maintenance trimming whenever you need it.
Handling, ergonomics and edging function
The ART 30 is designed to be comfortable to use and easy to control:
- Weight: approx. 2.8 kg – light enough for most users to handle without excessive fatigue.
- Height adjustment 80–115 cm – the telescopic shaft adjusts with a one-click mechanism so you can stand more upright while you work.
- Adjustable secondary handle – fine-tune your grip for better balance and control in different positions.
- Soft-grip main handle – improves comfort during longer trimming sessions.
- Rotatable head for edging – switch from standard trimming to vertical edging with a single click, ideal for neat edges along driveways and paths.
The semi-automatic twin-line spool feeds line as needed, so you spend less time stopping to adjust line and more time actually trimming.

Frequently asked questions – Bosch ART 30 electric strimmer
Is the Bosch ART 30 suitable for my garden size?
The ART 30 is well suited to small and medium-sized gardens. The 30 cm cutting width and 480 W motor give enough performance for most domestic lawns and typical edging work. For very large plots or heavily overgrown areas, a more powerful electric, cordless or petrol machine from our
strimmers and brushcutters range may be more appropriate.
What is the difference between the Bosch ART 24 and Bosch ART 30?
Both the Bosch ART 24 and Bosch ART 30 are corded electric strimmers, but the ART 30 offers a wider 30 cm cutting diameter and is better suited to slightly larger or more open areas. The ART 24, with a 24 cm cut, is often chosen for smaller gardens or where manoeuvrability in tight spaces is the priority.
Does the ART 30 have automatic line feed?
Yes. The Bosch ART 30 uses a semi-automatic twin-line system. Line is fed from the spool automatically as needed, reducing manual adjustment and helping to maintain a consistent cutting radius while you work.
Can the Bosch ART 30 be used for edging?
Yes. The ART 30 features a rotatable head so you can switch from standard trimming to vertical edging at the click of a button. This is ideal for creating clean edges along paths, patios, driveways and flower borders.
How heavy is the Bosch ART 30 to use?
The tool weighs around 2.8 kg. Combined with the telescopic shaft and adjustable secondary handle, this makes it manageable for most users who want strong corded performance without the additional weight of many petrol machines.
Do I need any special maintenance with the ART 30?
As a corded electric strimmer, maintenance is straightforward: keep the head and guard clear of debris, replace the line when the spool runs low, and check the cable for damage before each use. Our team can help you choose suitable replacement line and accessories if needed.
Can Masseys help me choose between Bosch strimmers?
Yes. Our staff can help you compare the Bosch ART 30 with other
Bosch strimmers,
as well as cordless and petrol options, so you can select the right tool for your lawn size, edging needs and budget.
