I’m finding folding flat quite difficult, you have to push the handle sides in towards the mower at the base and need strength to do this.
Also finding that lid doesn’t stay clipped closed when hanging.
Otherwise this is a good machine
Good value lawnmower for the price, very lightweight and Easy to move around the garden, in fact it really makes light work of it now and I’m getting to enjoy mowing the grass, only one thing wish the grass box was slightly larger but saying that it’s so compact and hangs up in the shed neatly.
This is an excellent little mower. My mums lawn was a state but other than having to empty it every five seconds, as the box is tiny, it breezed it. (The grass was well overdue a cut). The second mow was a lot easier as was much shorter so although you do have to empty it quite often it’s not a hardship when it makes easy work of a terribly uneven law
I liked that it did its job well .
I I didn’t like the way that that pegs that kept the handle in place kept coming out while I was using it I’ve now had to drill a hole and put in screw to stop it coming ou
Great item, easy to assemble and lightweight. Clears up all the grass cuttings as you go. Well packaged and well worth the money
Good little mower and glides easily across the lawn. not very good at handling longer grass but admitting my lawn was a bit of a jungle!
Really easy to assemble in a matter of minutes.
Think mower has different grass level cuttings but I haven’t adjusted mine yet so have no idea how short this can cut.
I do need to empty this more often than my last lawn mower though as the box isn’t as big, but all in all I’m happy with my purchase.
Performed adequately on the highest setting. Takes up less space in the shed than larger models. Good to have the cuttings sucked up
Cuts nicely and neatly. Easy to empty the grass box. Not tiring either.
Fantastic little mower. Easy to assemble, lightweight and easy to store. Cuts the grass really well. Ideal for a smaller garden.

Light and easy to use. The collection bin was smaller then I hoped which means I have to empty it quite often but generally Happy with it.
his mower is brilliant. was worried it wouldnt cope, but pleasantly surprised with outcome. easy to use etc. only downside to it is it could do with a longer power lead. i would certainly recommend buying it.
No issues at all. This is a well made and easy to operate flymo at an excellent price. Had a slight issue with the first item sent but this was exchanged immediately.
Great little mower, ideal for my patch, easy to use, lightweight, only downside it blows the grass clippings around so you have to mow over them again to collect, no real problem. Happy customer.
This is a brilliant little mower if you have a small garden its lightweight very manoeuvrable and cuts the grass really well would highly recommend
This is great for small gardens, easy to assemble and use. One side of my lawn goes up to a fence and due to the rim it can’t cut anywhere near it.
I also bought the electric strimmer that wasn’t expensive but does the trick.
It is decent at picking up grass but has a very small basket so if you dont change it when full it will leave the cuttings on the ground.
Perfect for my needs, but if I had a much bigger garden I’d want to upsize
Only have a small lawn,so this lightweight mower is ideal
So easy to assemble and very lightweight, perfect for small lawns
Got for my mum who has bad mobility and she loves it easy to use ligt Wigh

Having dexterity problems, this Flymo was very easy to assemble, and because it’s a hovver, very light and easy for me to manage.
I recommend this product.
Great little compact mower. It got boring fast raking up the grass every time it was strimmed so I decided to give this mower a go.
I was a little hesitant about the reviews saying it left grass cuttings everywhere but it’s not that bad. The air intake that collects the grass is on the back right so you just have to adjust your mowing style to collect all the grass. Yes a little more effort but that’s why it’s priced that low. I agree with reviews saying that it struggles a little on uneven ground but of course you have to expect that from a hover mower.
It takes seconds to fold down the handle and stow the cable away so makes life easy when storing away. The grass collection basket is ok in size and for my small lawns I only have to empty it twice. Adjusting the height of the blade is done in a minute using the tool they provide you and gives a reasonable range in cutting height. I would definitely recommend giving the underside and front of the mower a good clean after every use as it does get blocked up quickly but expected for a small mower.
Assembly was very simple too with clear instructions and took maybe 5 minutes.
Very pleased does the job well. Cutting on a slope
I have a small garden but do need a light duty mower to keep the grass tidy. This does the job well enough. It is a replacement for an older model of the same make that recently stopped working after a number of years of service. I am glad I had the older version still because it helped me understand how to assemble it as the instructions were not over clear.
It is fine for lighter duty work.
She is a fit 89 year old who still loves to mow her own lawn and potter in the garden.
This Flymo is small enough and light enough for her to manage comfortably. The grass collection box is not overly big and needs frequent emptying but then that is a good time to have a brief sit down and a slurp of something cold and refreshing. She says it cuts effortlessly and efficiently hoovers up the cut grass. She’s happy with the purchase so I am!
This item arrived when it was meant to performs beautifully and a good price
The machine is easy to assemble on delivery and works very well in all corners of my lawn which is a most peculiar shape.
Bought on behalf of my brother who id 81 years of age and found an ordinary mower to hard to push, so got this flymo and he is pleased with the purchase and finds it easy to use.
Only a small garden but the flymo is very manouverable
Excellent value for money. Portable and easy to use. Manages the contours of my sloping lawn very well.
Great wee mower. I have two small lawns and the flymo hover vac does a great job.
Great bit of kit – light and easy to manoeuvre – like the grass collection bucket inside – keeps the big bits inside – chucks the little bits out which helps to fertilise the grass…
Good value for money. Light weight and easy to use. Arrived quickly
You dont need this unwanted additional exercise if, like me, you’re a lazy once a month (if it’s lucky) gardner.
If you’re not bothered, you can leave the grass collection box off to get finished and back to the pub sooner.
Great if you have lots of banks and slopes in your garde
Very happy, perfect for an uneven medium sized garden. Lightweight and durable
Ideal for a small lawn. Too small for a large lawn.
This is a very small lawnmower. I’ve on got a small garden and i have to empty the box 2 or 3 times. Should have gone for the bigger versio
What’s not to like, very easy to assemble and use.
Fantastic but not too good in long grass.
Cuts short, and doesn’t require too much emptyimg
Great lawn mower. Always bought this one for many years as it’s reliable, light weight, easy to maintain and a good price.

Great mower perfect for my small patch good size grass box
Me and mowers do not go well together. This is my third in 13 years. But, this time, I think I have a good one. It is noisy. Please wear ear protection. 93db according to manual. The instructions are picturegrams so for some will be hard to follow. However having had two mowers, it did not take much to work out. Using the mower was easy. It is a tad sluggish so moving it about is a bit tiring. The 15 litre grass box is easy to lift out. This was good, as on first cut I had to empty 7 times. Cleaning after mowing was easy. Do clean it after each use. Pay attention to the air vents. It folds down for neat easy storage. A good small mower with a grass box.
arrived on time easy to put together and to use

Happy with the mower, however, have since found out I could’ve bought it a bit cheaper instore
Hey ho, some you win some you lose

Light, easy to use and good value for money. Handle does not collapse so wall storage is bes
This mower is a perfect size to cut my rear lawn. 20′ X 10′. The grass box has plenty of spare space after I have cut the grass .
I have a small garden, so it is easy to manoeuvre. Great compact size means easy storage.
Easy to put together and get going, however if your grass is a bit too long then you may struggle to push this around your lawn. It does a good job at collecting the grass, you may need to empty it once or twice as you go just to keep the weight down. It’s also not that great at actually hovering, my previous 20 odd year old hover mower does it better but this is a budget mower so you get what you pay for. All in all, it’ll cut your grass well but you might have to put some effort in from time to time
Amazing quality try out for test and they suck up grass so fast and strong give them 5 stars great value for price
Very happy with purchase a good value mower easy to use and it does a good cu

I love the way in which this mower glides over the lawn . Perfect for two small lawns.Very lightweight and easy to handle .
Perfect for my small garden, small and compact. Wouldn’t be suitable for a large garde
Nice lawnmower, light and compact, with the steel blade it sliced through the grass (even thick) cuts really low as well with the adjustable nuts for required height cutting setting, probably only good for smaller lawns, nevertheless good produc

Outer box was badly damaged, so I don’t know if that happened in transit – and if so, how – or if the seller knew about it as it was their last mower of this type.
Although the lawn is small, I have to plug the mower into the garage so that uses up about half of the lead, so the lead isn’t long enough. I’ve had to use an extension cable.
The mower is quite light and sometimes jumps and rears backwards when it meets long grass.
I’m still glad I bought it though.
The mower is light and generally does the job.
One point to be aware of is grass quickly builds up under the mower and needs to be cleaned off regularly to get the best performance from the mower. Also keep an eye on the grass box filling up as the top is not transparent.
Good value, perhaps getting one with a bigger cutting box would be a better idea.
I have a small suburban garden and even that fills it 4 or 5 times
Like : good value at 60 pounds, nicely made and lightweight, suitable for smaller lawns, easy to store and to operate, decent cable length, cutting height reasonably easy to adjust.
Downside: compact size means small grassbox and modest motor power.
It’s a Flymo. They are all the same, except this one has a grass bin atached. Still scatters grass over my pathway but it does catch some of the cut grass in the bin. Flymos are easy to manouver and very light. My last Flymo had a cutting edge of 33cm, this one has 25cm. I have only a small area of grass to keep tidy and I am leaving some of the grass to grow wild, so this Flymo is ideal.
I will just say, this Flymo was a used one from Amazon and I took the chance that it would be okay. When I was assembling it, it came together well. When I had used my new Flymo for ten minutes, the handle fell apart. I took some plastic bolts from my old Flymo and replaced the handle with these. Seems to be fine now.
Can’t seem to find a replacement blade for this machine anywhere
Only thing I don’t like is the capacity of the grass collector bin. It is a little small but okay.
Excellent product. Well made easy to use as it is so light. Grandson cuts our grass and loves it. Would highly recommend for a small garden.
Does a great job. I bought this for the front and back garden. The collection container needs changing a lot if you have a large garden but other than that it glides well is easy to construct and does a thorough job
Easy to assemble and has a nice long power lead. It mows the grass very well. Can’t ask for much more.
Had to send this back after 5 months. Had a flymo before that one which lasted 8 years, so was disappointed when it stopped working. While it did work, it was easy to assemble and use
Only negative is that a longer handle would prevent the need to bend forward for a taller person. Cuts well ; grass box is big enough; lightweight and easily manoeuvrable

Very good we use this for cutting grass on a slope to the greenhouse
I had the upgraded version to this previously, but decided to get this smaller one to fit into smaller areas. On a personal preference. Still absolutely fantastic! Very lightweight and easy to use. Easy to put together and the instructions are clear to follow.
Put all extentions on blade and it cut right to the soil … remove one and it cut to the perfect length. Good lawn miwer.
Fast delivery well packaged and easy bit of light assembly (screw handle together and fit to base) small and compact ideal for small lawn I adjusted blade to cut really low for a short cut and it was perfect. Nice small lightweight collector which is easy to take off and empty I emptied mine about 4 times. Great little mower if you don’t want anything big and bulky or fancy!
Yes it’s great for short grass not very good on long, after I’d bought this I found it cheaper else where,still a good buy know my grass is only short it dose t take me long to cu
Absolutely nothing wrong with this mower. I’ve a modestly sized, slightly sloping bumpy lawn and the hover action cuts perfectly, much better than a rotary or wheeled mower. I’ve been using a push rotary but after 3 weeks of lockdown rain the growth was too long, but not for the flymo.
Some grass flies out but barely noticeable. I was going to get a bigger version, lawn is 10 X 5 metres but this is fine, saved 50.
Easy to assemble, easy the use, lightweight, has a box on the back that you can literally take off and slot back on easily, fits in my storage bench so no need for a shed. Made my grass lovely, it’s no longer patchy grass, looks literally like a fluffy carpet now.
The only negative thing for me is that it’s gets a bit hard to push.
After my last flymo gave up after 6 year’s, this seemed an ideal substitute. It was easy to put together with clear and straightforward instructions . Cuts the grass well but as small, needs to be emptied more often. Would definitely recommend

Ordered this lawn mower after many hours looking at what was on offer, checking out what they said they could do and then how much they cost. This is the one that I settled on. It looked right for my smallish sized lawns, that are uneven, even wonky in places and dare I say rather neglected until now.
The mover it self is a good size, and having packed it up I noted that it doesn’t take up much space.
I used it for the first time today and it was a joy to use – mind you, I’ve been cutting my grass for years with a streamer (didn’t think I’d stay in this house long enough to need a lawn mower). I did note that the bucket does fill up rather quickly so I needed to keep an eye on that and empty it regularly. In summary, I found it a great new tool, something that cut the grass well and even sucks up the cuttings…bonus…
For its size the mower is very noisy and the handles very short so if you are over 6ft you will be bending your back but ideal for a small garden. Well packed and arrived on time
1. Easy to put up husband did it on his own in five minutes.
2.Cut the grass quick and easy, we have a medium sized garden, took about an hour to cut.
3.Has a grass collecting box build to it which is very helpful to keep things not too messy, I didn’t need to buy any other tools this alone did the whole job.
4.light enough for a small framed woman like me to use, I needed a rest or two in between because of my back issue but not too bad at all, I need to rest with my Dyson V7 as well if that gives any indication(slightly heavier than a dyson vacuum but feels to me similar pull strength on the back)
5.power cord is slightly short for us but no big deal as we have some extension cords at hand.
6. Not too noisy, I personally find it pretty Low noise, again similar to a vacuum.
7. Didn’t leave the garden messy as I was worried about it. I did the job in my PJs without any protecting clothing and didn’t end up getting grass all over myself.
Overall this is exactly what I imagined when I ordered it, fuss free, easy to use, ticks every box and works as it should do. This is my very first time using a lawn mower and I’m glad I got this one. I am not an experienced gardener so don’t know if this would be good enough for someone has higher expectations than me, but if you are like me researching on lawn mowers because of Covid-19 and you don’t want to risk having people in your house. I would recommend this one.

Brilliant compact lawnmower, ideal for a small garden. Easy to use and give a tight cut. Very quick delivery, arrived to Ireland within 10 days. Couldn’t recommend the seller any more.
I have a large Atco for general mowing but I wanted this for a small grassed area by patio. Just perfect and small enough to store in sentry box shed nearby. Would highly recommend this item, effective working and folds for storage.
Wanted a small mower for a grass pathway and this suits, its okay for that sort of area. I wouldn’t say it was fabulous but does the job okay. It is easy to empty the grass basket and to fit it back on. I would not recommend for an average sized lawn.
This model is a great size but the grass box is very small. With all the rain and sunshine lately, if I leave my lawn longer than 4 days, I have to keep emptying it too often for my liking.
This is great if you have a very small lawn but anything bigger than 5×7 metre lawn and you’ll want a bigger mower and grass box.
