Bought for my son who has newly sown grass about 10ft square,he said it struggled as he grass was damp and only 4″ tall,i thought 1400 watt would be plenty of power but i was wrong
And I like the neatly finished cut it imparts. Ideal for a compact lawn. However I don’t like the permanently fitted mains cord because it’s very difficult to stow neatly and the clumsy grass box is fiddly to remove for emptying.
We have a Bungalow with 2 small front Garden Lawns & a large back garden with 2 lawns: also Patio & 3 small lawns: 7 lawns all together so mower is just the right size for our gardens. Altogether it’s great!!!
I wanted a small grass cutter for a small garden, I got a small grass cutter with a tiny 25 cm blade, It could easyly hold a larger blade, about 30 cm, of which you can purchas at a ( reasonable ) price,
Persomaly, I leave the grass basket out, cut the grass, then put the basket back in and a walk aroung to collect the cut grass after, Dont know why, but it just makes the job feel lighte
Fairly large garden so probably should of purchased slightly bigger model but does the job and picks up the grass well, always seem to be emptying the grass box though
I purchased this Flymo Hover Vac 250 to replace my previous one as it no longer worked. I put it all together as per illustrations which was quite easy. Only problem I had, I couldn’t get the blade unlocked to put in a spacer as I like a close cut grass. Tried several times to get it moved, to no avail. Gripper kept slipping off which meant my knuckles skidded off the blade! Hope you have better luck.
Was a little apprehensive about buying a smaller Flymo, but no problems, ideal for my smaller garden, may have to empty it a bit more, happy with purchase
Good cutting light weight. Only good for small garden as it fills up quick.
Easy to move around a small lawn, but the grass collection box needs emptying frequently
I love this lawn mower. It’s so easy to use, clean and put away.
The only thing I felt was difficult was unscrewing the nut to adjust the blade heigh
It’s alright and gets the job done however it’s bit on the small side for a big garden with lots of grass
This is okay, does a good job of cutting the lawn if cut regularly. If the lawn is long, then this struggles and is better to strim the lawn first.
Undecided whether to replace with a wheeled version. I think the hover function just isn’t quite strong enough.
We have a garden on several levels the mower copes with all the slopes and levels
Great product for the price
Take about 15 to put together instructions easy enough
Definitely recommend
Good mower for the money but I’m on my third one in the space of four years. Motors keep blowing up. And my lawn is small.
I only have a small patch of somewhat uneven grass so this is perfect for that. The first couple of times I used it the handles did keep coming off in the middle of mowing but for some reason have now stopped. I find it picks up pretty much all the grass but does blow some of it around. It cuts well and is easy to clean. For the price though I am very happy and it was easy to put together on arrival.
Having destroyed the impeller fan in my previous famous but gone British named mower. I found a replacement on Amazon but I couldn’t get the damaged part off, so it was mower shopping. Wanted a small lawnmower due to space restrictions under the stairs.
Read some reviews and a 2019 garden magazine recommended it. Found some odd negative reviews. Mostly down to customers who don’t follow the instructions.
Mower is quieter than the previous, collects less grass, but is easier to put in compost bin. All metal blade, British design, goes up slope of 20 degrees, light weight, cut is good for moss/grass. Downsides the small collection box and the grass pick up grabs the lawn when pulling back
2 year warranty, put together in minutes, bought at Amazon deal price.
Has multi level cutting and glides across the grass, has a bit of grass overspray but that is soon cleaned up.
Depends on size of lawn. Basket emptied a dozen times, but was on first cut.
Just wasn’t big enough for my needs but a small garden would be good.
Overall it’s ok,but the grass collection could be better.the collection spout needs to be nearer the ground as in earlier models of flymo so more grass is collected.it’s not good to leave cut grass on a lawn.scarify your lawn at the end of a season and then see what gets collected.easy to manoeuvre although the blades will dig in the lawn a bit if it’s uneven in places.
Works well. I have a bumpy, sloping lawn so this makes things a bit easie
Doe’s the job for my small garden
Will shop agai
Ok for small lawns but quite flimsy when going side to side. Handles only held in with push-in plastic plugs.
Very lightweight and does the job it’s intended to. I like the grass a bit shorter than this ( hence 4 stars) but for the price I’m happy with it.
This mower is handy for my small front & garden. It is easy to hang up in my shed, saving space.. very easy to use and handle as well.
Easy to assemble , good long lead, quite light as well.
Replaced a much more expensive flymo that had a very weak flimsy handle. This maybe a cheaper lighter model but is a much more robust flymo
No spacers in box but only a couple of pounds to buy
Prompt delivery,was very easy to assemble and get mowing in 5 minutes.
Suitable for small gardens and is very lightweigt.
Good little mower but nut extremely stuck so not good when try to put in the height circles in.
Cuts well and light weight, very good price and quick delivery.
As I have a smaller garden now, and because my large old flymo was getting old, I decided to downsize to one of these. It is light and does a decent cut, but for some reason it is not as manouverable. It picks up the grass okay. The grass box needs emptying quite frequently. It is a pretty cheap mower and it does the job okay.
Very happy and so is my lawn – does what it says on the box
The hover mac 250 came as new to me. I wasn’t disappointed as to it’s condition. Manual and warranty were available too. In such a transaction you at least expect to see cosmetic wear.
This was more or less untouched.
Assembly was easy. And the lawnmower runs impressively. Once again Amazon come up trumps for me.
Only used it once up to yet but seems to be OK and the grass box holds a fair bit the fact that it’s really lightweight makes it a lot better to carry around
Firstly I would like to say some of the reviews almost put me off! And I’m soo glad I did order! Who doesn’t get grass all over the place when using a mower that has a collector on only one side! I got this because I moved and needed something cheap for now to sort a jungle and my was I surprised!!! Nothing broke, nothing had to be changed or replaced! Still works perfect. VERY happy and very surprised!
light..easy to move around…great cut…very happy with this little beauty.
The height adjuster is by putting spacers in or removing them which is a negative but considering everything else and the cost. .. I am very happy with my purchase.
Grass has been too wet so I haven’t used the mower yet. But it was easy to assemble, is very light and I’m sure that the little wheels/rollers will help with maneuverability. Metal blade, grass collection box – I’m looking forward to using it if it ever stops raining!
Just right for my wife, lightweight and she can use it easily.
It cuts the grass – it does a fantastic job – easy to use as it hovers – collects the grass also! Really does what it says on the box 5*
Nice and light very easy to us gives a nice neat cut.
So easy to assembled and very light, compact and easy to use. I’m now able to mow the lawn without assistance. I would definitely recommend it.
love it such a good mower for my small garden thank you
Slightly awkward to release handles bottom end of mower to put flat-to store it.
Heavier than I thought it’d be but ok.. Otherwise Good
Generally a good little mower, however, I do not know how long the plastic used in its design will last. The mower is light, easy to use but perhaps a little too fragile……………….But only time will tell.
Good little mower but handle is short. I find I have back ache after using as bend slightly to push this around garden. Has a tendency to dig into grass when pulling back but apart from these little problems it works great. Ideal for smaller gardens.
