    I had been using a strimmer on an uneven small lawn. The Flymo mower was so easy to use, it collected the cut grass and the lawn looked much neate

    Lightweight, ease of use
    Compact product, perfect for my small lawn (4m x 3m). Due to vacuum effect grass collection box holds loads. As with most hover there’s a bit of loose clippings blowing about which don’t get collected. Height adjuster fiddly as blade needs to be removed and discs inserted/removed whereas wheeled mowers there’s just a clip to lift/ lower body : hence 4 star.

    How to remove the blade effortlessly?
    Lovely and light for my small back garden. Good value price wise. My big question is how to remove the blade underneath to fit the spacers? I literally had a team of adults attempting to do this, as per the instructions, without success. It was futile. I really like this lawnmower. If I can figure out how to get the blade off, I will love it more.

    4.0 out of 5 stars It works fine but there isn't much hove
    It is working ok and the grass is cut to the desired length but the mower is hard to move around as it doesn’t hover very well. I think the emphasis to get cuttings into the box reduces the power available for hovering.

    As a lover of all things Flymo this lawnmower doesn’t disappoint. Its a good solid construction yet light weight and most importantly gets the job done. The addition of the grass box to catch all of those clippings is just the icing on the cake. Oh! And did I mention what a great price, absolutely can’t go wrong.

    Arrived all well, mounting it all up was easy, I did have a problem undoing the bolt on the blade to add the spacers as on very tight.

    I took a before picture and after.
    I’m very happy with this lawnmower, does a great job!!!

    The bad points, as it a flymo it will blow the grass around, it will suck it up if you go over it, not a big thing, I did fill a bag up with grass.

    I have a small patch of lawn which does not warrant an expensive mower so this is perfect. It was easy to assemble and light to carry too. It does not cut as close to the edge as I like and is not too easy gliding but i am not complaining for the price of it.

    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.

    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

    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.

    Okay
    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.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersMy First Flymo.
    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.

    Brilliant little mowe
    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.

    Grass collection could be bette
    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.

    Does the job
    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.

    Easy to manoeuvre as it is a hover mower but makes a lot of mess as it blows the grass around. Ideal for small gardens (upto 30 sqm) anything bigger than that you better buy the next size up.
    It is light and easy to store in a shed. The only negative side is the time consuming process when it comes to change the height of the cutting.

    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.

    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
