Some of the negative reviews for this mower are a bit baffling, and I think they come mainly from people who are desperate to be disappointed. I got this from the Amazon Warehouse, fully boxed with some tiny signs of previous use, for well under forty quid, and it seems like an absolute bargain. I’ll deal with some of the issues other people have said.
It doesn’t come with a cable tidy, but all you have to do is wrap the cable round the handles, it really isn’t hard.
The handles fold up into the vertical position very easily and very quickly, without any need to start taking things apart. It literally takes about 3 seconds, and then you can lie your mower flat against your shed wall. You just have to squeeze the handles together while folding them, it’s explained in the manual.
It’s quite noisy, but that’s because it’s powerful. Lawn mowers generally are noisy, but you won’t need earplugs, I promise.
To adjust the blade height you use the spanner that comes with the mower. It should take you a couple of minutes, and once you’ve got the height right, just leave it at that setting.
The only issue I’ve had is with the plastic pivot pins that fix the handles to the body (the little round things in photo 2). As lots of other users have reported, they are slightly loose. The Flymo online parts department sell these for about 3.79 delivered if you lose yours, and I suspect the replacements are a better fit.
I have a large lawn and use a heavy duty petrol mower, but I’ve planted an orchard and I don’t want to damage my trees with the big mower. This little Flymo is perfect for the job. It’s very light and easy to manoeuvre. Yes, it has its limitations, but with garden machinery you do get what you pay for, and this is good value for money. And if you register it with Flymo (part of Husqvarna) you’ll get a two year warranty too. Great.
Very to assemble and lightweight, looking forward to using it soo
Small and lightweight but not as good as they used to be. Doesn’t hover very well for some reason.
A Lightweight Lawnmower, purchased for a pensioner, great for the smaller garden, manoeuvrability is great & easy to use.

Noisy for a small machine cuts grass ok but doesn’t seem to hover well which makes it difficult to manoeuvre and quite difficult to fold down for storing.

I was skeptical at first, bit must say I am satisfied with the performance of the product so far. (Have used it twice)
It is lightweight and easy to assemble and manouver and definitely good enough for a small lawn. The cutting quality depends on the height of the blades, which you can adjust to suit.
The only drawback I found so far is when removing the handles, as even though you use some kind of a clip to hold them in place (without screwing them in), it can a little tricky to pull them out afterwards.
Also, I found it just as noisy as the big mowers, which was a little off-putting.
This is my first flymo, ordered because I wanted something small and lightweight for a small back garden. When it is working as it should it is perfect and just what I wanted. I have dropped a star though because as others have mentioned, changing the cutting height requires the entire blade to be removed completely so it’s not a quick thing to do. Also if the grass is long or you are going over uneven ground, the flymo doesn’t hover and becomes very awkward to manoeuvre. On balance, it’s great when it works but not when it doesn’t! I think I’d order a small rotary again when it needs replacing.
My new mower – Flymo Turbo Lite 250 Electric Hover Lawn Mower — 1400 W, 25 cm Cutting Width is easy to assemble and very powerful.
I have used it on my overgrown lawn and it cut through everything with ease. The 1,400W motor handled all I through at it including the long weeds. My lawn has many pits and bumps in it but the Flymo just glided through the lot!
Nice long lead fitted and only four fixings to fit the two piece handle. I am past retirement age now so don’t want anything too heavy to handle. This Flymo 250 I found light and easy to handle even over the uneven parts of the lawn. It’s metal blade is very robust even on the most stubborn weeds!
I got this delivered through Amazon so the delivery was super fast. “If I had blinked I would have missed it” fast!
Fully recommend this mower from Amazon for it’s ease of assembly, use and fast delivery.
Ideal for a small garden, neat and lightweight. Arrived next day.

Really good little Flymo very powerful ideal for small lawns.
You can alter the height for a first cut of the year. Easy to move around and get into the small places

I dislike the plastic pins securing the handles, but everything else is good.
Great little hover mower and the metal blade does a clean cut.
Loved this so easy to use and carry about does a handsome job
great lightweight and easy to use
good at the job required
Nooooo it cut out after 3 cuts of my grass and give up
Guys this is a cracking little lawn mower lightweight value for money
Very happy with this flymo, nice & light & very reasonably priced. Much better than previous Bosch mower I had which was more expensive.
Light and easy to use. Also folds down well so easy to store.
Absolutely great love my machine it’s everything it’s ment to be and does a good job
I’ve always had a flymo, this is a small lightweight mower. Only gripe, is the point where the handle meets the body is fixed by plastic lugs which arn’t very sturdy.

Very lightweight and perfect for the banks of our stream. Only downside, difficult to put into flat position when new; expecting it to loosen up with use

Very disappointed in the cut of the grass, only had the mower for a month and the blade is in really poor condition already my grass plot is 2mts x 4mtrs so it has only been cut about 4/5 times. The blade is very poor quality
I love this mower, i could not assemble it myself, so had a neighbour do it.Very light and cuts grass really well.
Bought this for my elderly mother who has a small garden and found this ideal for her and perfect for what we wanted
Perfect little mower – does the job and was a bargain!
Really pleased with this bit worried it was gonna be bit heavy for me (as I have food) but worked a way round it many thanks
This mower cuts the grass very well. It’s my own fault for not realising but there’s obviously no way to catch the grass and it flies around the yard and paths a LOT. You have to sweep up afterwards which takes quite a while. Other than that, it’s lightweight, easy to manoeuvre and the different grass level settings are easy to adjust. I put all 3 extender pieces on and that’s the amount needed for a nice short cut.
Much lighter than my previous flymo making it easier to do my lawns.
Lovely little mower,exactly what was required and an excellent service throughout from the selle
Very light to use …thing I didn’t like is the plastic screws to hold the handle in place work the way ou
Light weight
Easy to put together and to use
Stores fla
Very speedy delivery. Very light and easy to manoeuvre. There is no tray so you need to rake up the cuttings afterwards.
Only negative aspect of this product is that the clips that hold the handles in place, are plastic garbage that come loose while mowing. Other than that the it is great and does the job very well.

As you would expect from Flymo great product easy to assemble and even easier to use. Excellent for small gardens glides with ease and gives an even cut.
Best thing is it has a couple of screws i can loosen to fold the handle so it fits nicely in my garden storage box. Works well on my uneven lawn too.
Quite hard to use if land isn’t flat but great value
Yes this mower cuts grass well – and yes it is a lightweight mower – we are pleased with it.
Easy to assemble. VERY effective at cutting grass and even some soft stemmed weeds. The fact that you have to rake afterwards is a pain but its a perfect cost effective option for a small lawn.
Easy to assemble and use and makes light work of mowing the lawn. Only awkward bit is squeezing in the base of the handle on both sides simultaneously in order to be able to swing the handle down and hang the mower flat against a wall. Nonetheless delighted with the mower and would buy again.

A great little machine for a small lawn. It’s quite a flimsy little mower but it does the job on rough lawns; it would be no good for the ‘pride and joy’ type stripey lawn! Easy to use, easy to clean, cheap and cheerful!

A nice and light mower, I was able to cut the grass without it straining my back, only downside is that you have to hold the handle down or it cuts off
Cuts the grass well due to metal rotor. Lightweight with metal roller. Only 4 stars because it takes a long time to clean . Need an old toothbrush to remove clippings always stuck and wedged in holes underneath.
This is perfect for small gardens.. i had to use the attachments to lower the blade for our grass, but the tool is included… and its very simple to use.. and to operate.. Great Mower!
This was a present but I understand it was “just what they wanted” and they are delighted with the model I chose.
We have a small garden so this ‘Flymo Turbo’ seemed just the job for us! We are very pleased with it – it’s small, very lightweight and folds-up neatly. We have ours hanging up in the garage so very accessible – all-in-all – it makes very light work of moving the lawn and definitely worth Five Stars – Great Little Mower!
I love this machine and although it is a little noisy it does the job in no time. Very suitable for a small lawn.
Light and easy so far so good .Bought so that I can mow lawn as hubbys one is too heavy for me but guess what hes commandeered them !
Assembling the system is easy. It can be set up and get it working within 10-15 minutes. It does not collect the grass. That needs to be done separately. It does cut the grass properly. I did not face any problem so far.
I found it heavier than I expected maybe that’s just me. Not as easy to manoeuvre as expected especially if grass isn’t even my garden is a little bumpy in places
Ideal for my small areas of grass I am disabled and this is light enough for me to sit in a chair and do my grass as I sit.
The Flymo turbo lite 250 electric is easy to use and lightweight, the only problem is it’s a little small, so for a tall person may be little awkward to use
Great little lawnmower, for the price it’s awesome. Easy to assemble just shreds everything with those solid metal blades. Make sure you clean the vents after each job to not clog it up. Buy an edge trimmer to get in the corners and you’re sorted!
For its diminutive size it does its job reasonably well.
This lawn mower is a powerful little beauty. My last one was an older flymo, quite heavy to push around the grass but done a great job. It eventually died after 14 long years of flawless service. Sad to see it go. But this new flymo is much lighter, it glides around the grass like a hovercraft and cuts the grass and any random twigs/sticks with ease. Now that I have a light weight mower, I can get the kiddies to cut the grass instead while I paint the walls with lipstick and flush unwanted toys down the toile

I have a small garden tho it had become like a jungle this cut through it all. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked and how light it is. I would recommend this to anyone that’s looking for a lawnmower on a budget.
I found it tricky to put together but I am not good at construction! After some help to put together I have found it very easy to use and light.
I purchased this model to replace an older, bigger model which my wife (who does most of the gardening!) found too heavy and cumbersome for our small garden/verges and particularly the steep slopes adjacent to the lane. Excellent product, easy to use, lightweight and does ‘hover’, not dig in like the old one!
Easy to put together and to work. Still getting used to it.

I love this lawnmower it’s so light and easy to manoeuvre,and I love the fact you don’t have to worry about a grass box, it cut lovely and even.
Great for a small garden quick and easy to use it saves us time so we don’t have to use our petrol mower which we keep for our larger back garden highly maneuverable great value for the money
its nice and light because, I suppose, it hasn’t a grass box
I just needed something small and light to cut the back lawn. This fits the bill nicely. Very easy to manoeuvre, and no grass box to empty makes it a breeze to use. I found it quite easy to put together, and it comes with a tool to adjust the cutting height. Worth the price.
The mower itself works – it cuts and it’s keeping my lawns as tidy as my next door neighbours (with his fancy petrol mower).
Assembly instructions weren’t the best and even though the only assembly is the two part handle, you want to get it right – I didn’t the first time and one of my plastic bolts fell out and almost got itself mowed.
I had trouble lowering the handle for storage and then to my horror realised you literally have to bend over and squeeze the lower handles in toward the body of the mower – not easy when you’re barely 5 foot tall and lacking in upper body strength at the best of times.
Another problem with the mower (or with it being too small for my lawns) is that the vents get clogged every 10 minutes or so and it stops ‘hovering’ until I brush them out – I didn’t realise this was the problem until I read the manual.
The blade height adjustment works well – I was worried about having to handle the blade while doing this but the blade isn’t sharp – I think a sharper blade would be better actually, but then I’m sure it would not have passed ‘health and safety’.
All in all a decent mower for the price – if you have a very small garden.
For my own personal choice it could have done with an extra spacer to get a really short cut.
This mower does a good job, although it does not cut as short and as uniformly as my previous mower (a Qualcast easylite). This may be because the mowing season has only just started, and regular mowing will probably give better results. The mower is light and very easy to use.
