Flymo SimpliTrim Li Battery Grass Trimmer
Perfect for small gardens, the SimpliTrim Li is Flymo’s newest integrated battery grass trimmer. With a cutting width of 23cm, it makes light work of trimming the edges of your garden. Made for the user in mind, the SimpliTrim weighs only 1.7kg and uses durable, long-life grass blades.
- Includes 4 spare blades on the handle.
- 1 blade = 4 standard cuts.
The SimpliTrim Li comes packed with a host of efficient features to help make trimming your lawn quick and simple.
-
RotorCut
Equipped with easy-to-fit durable plastic blades for optimal cutting performance.
-

Integrated charging port with LED indicator with storage for your spare blades (included).

User Friendly
Optimised ergonomics for maximum comfort while working.
-
Light weight
Light in weight at 1.7kg for user comfort – ensuring you can trim all your garden hedges with ease.
Plastic Blade Benefits
- On average trimmers with plastic blades are, on estimate, 5dB quieter in comparison to trimmers that use nylon line, therefore making them more pleasant to use – for your neighbours, the wildlife and you.
- Blades are easy to fit and remove from the cutting disk in comparison to trimmer line which can become tangled, prone to uncoiling and generally difficult to work with before you’ve even started the trimmer.
- Depending on what density of grass you are cutting, one blade lasts up to 4 standard cuts. For thicker, denser grass, you may need 1 blade per cut.
- Nylon line snaps and breaks off whilst in use, leaving small bits of line on your lawn and around your garden, therefore making it an environmental hazard to birds and other animals that could pick it up in a mistaken identity of food. Blades on the other hand just wear down over time – being more durable works.

Very happy with this. Ideal for our small garden. Battery lasts well. Easy to fit replacement blades
I prefer strimmer with blades as no need to keep feeding strimmer cord. This is good forme with a small lawn as I’mm able to strimone and a half times on one charge!
Bought this for the wife as she wanted lightweight. easy to use and surprisingly effective for light duty work. I bought spare blades but so far have not needed them
I am 73 and this is lightweight and very easy to handle and no getting tangled up in a wire anymore
Light and easy to use and it’s great that replacement blades are stored within the handle too.
Love this strimmer , I had terrible back trouble trying to trim around the lawn hedges but now this lightweight piece of kit has made it a breeze. Blades last well. I recommend this especially if you are a bit on the mature side.
akes longer to charge than i would like.
Main advantage of this one over others is the blades it uses are really secured well and last ages
i have only used this for the first time today -i am a 72yr old arthritic lady,, my hands are bent double but
i had no problem putting it together -it has run for 1 hour on 1 tyne. light to handle.there was a lot of
long grass which i took down in stges. it has coped really well. i appreciate its early days but at the moment
i am extremely pleased
Very light and a charge last a good 40 min plus just plenty for the time wanted in garden this hot weather very pleased with i
Cordless trimmer, great for the job, it does what it says on the box.
If you purchase one of these yo will be pleased with it lightweight super strong have used this now for 2 years and it’s like new great product only downside can’t buy the blades Via look on Amazon and you can buy them by the hundred for less than 10 just make sure you buy the correct ones
Hubby loves it – no cables anymore! Does the whole garden in one charge. Light to hold and just a breeze to use rounds the hedges, trees and grass border because there’s no cables to worry about.
Hubby says he goes through a blade every time he uses it – but we do have a lot of trees and rugged large stones on the edge of the lawn.
So long as it’s easy to get the blades at a reasonable price going forward then go for it!

Leicht und handlich, fr einen Pflegeschnitt sehr gut zu gebrauche
Easy to assemble , safe & strong plastic .
It would be marvellous if the battery would last longer .
Very lightweight – and so far has done a great job.
As one gets older it is wonderful to be able to use a strimmer that doesn’t weigh a ton.
good trimmer for grass and long weeds, wont cut thicker roots also blade worn out within 1 hour of light cutting
would reccomend if only used infrequently
Lightweight easy to use, works well, battery charges fairly quickly, I am very happy and pleased with the Flymo strimme
Lightweight to use. Use for cutting graves grass in churchyard. Really needed battery life to be a bit longer.
So pleased I got this! No more cables, stupid reels. Bliss!
Good design as you would expect from Flymo.
Easy to use and lightweight. Battery life enough for a medium sized garden. Plastic blades don’t last long if you’re careless like me around walls,kerbside or paving but that’s my problem.

Great having the blades instead of the cassette which kept braking.
Fabulous being cordless
Excellent lightweight cordless trimmer. Handles well and does the job. I’m arthritic and had no problems assembling or using. Some comments refer to not being able to buy spare blades – these are now available on Amazon. I agree with other comments that if you have hard edging on your lawns you may need a new blade each time you use the trimmer, but benefits far outweigh this and blades are easy to replace.

Its not that heavy and there is a technique to using it around kerbs and walls so you dont destroy the blades. Its pretty well thought out and took me a while to notice there is a place to store extra blades on the handle. Kinda like Sarah Conners shotgun in T2. Just for that, 5stars.
We bought it for our grass verge outside the front of out house because the council make such an appalling job of it my husband has been cutting it with shears on his hands and knees and at 84 is getting too old for this.
Now he does not have to bend down and it is done in a few minutes with no resulting backache.
Only on complaint, it was delivered in a rather tattered box with no outer paper or box nor an address but it was intact so we kept it..
Just what the doctor ordered and was pleasantly surprised in the operation, it will be a good benefit to my garden.
Great powerful strimmer
good quick charge only one downfall the blades are not very durable
An excellent tool for edging my lawn. The battery life is sufficient to do a lot of edging. Really easy and lightweight.
Very lightweight. Purchased due to this fact. Appear good battery life and works quietly away at normal strimming.
Good product but can’t see how it chops as advertised.
Wasn’t aware that it would only come with U.K. type plug, took a while to track down an adaptor.
I’ve only used this hedge trimmer once so far and it did a good job. Its reasonably light weight and nice not to worry about a cable.
Very good did what I expected much easier than using my old corded one
Does a job.. quite impressed.. battery not the best.. Great for small garden.. makes a great job in the limited time you have… Better battery powr required.. speak to milwaukee about battery power 😉
jUST WHAT I WANTED
Super efficient easy to manage and super quick compared to my secateurs method
WELL DONE
Used this on hedges and shrubs with no problem. It is not heavy, great power. Battery charged up quickly and lasted a long time. Would recommend this produc
Light weight but very effective and easy to use even for older gardene
Very good machine goes through blades quite quick but those people who are finding it dificult to find blades buy them from Amazon they are called SurePromise pack of 100 used for Gardena lawnmower exactly the same blade.
The spare blades are very hard to get hold of, but the machine is very good and easy to use.
Brilliant tool, easy to use and not too heavy and best of all Cordless
In lockdown with no gardener I bought this to keep the grass down. As I am over 80, I needed a lightweight strimmer that is very easy to use.
I had to call in a strong man to help me put it together, but otherwise it does the job well.
The battery life started at 45 minutes but is now just over half an hour. This does not worry me as I find that is quite long enough for an old lady to be strimming!
I like this product as its light and easy to use

This is a great values trimmer. But for me the main plus was not having to struggle with a cord spool.
It’s lightweight and yet still manages to get the job done! The clips are easily changed and the battery power lasts 35-40 minutes, which gave me enough time to make a start on the garden, then a good tea break before I tackled the next side. I’m very impressed so far.
My one tiny niggle is that I have only found one source for the replacement clips (with the correct head) but I hope with more research I can resolve this easily enough.
I read the reviews on so may strimmer’s and finally decided on this one and i am so pleased that i did,,, Great description, great product.. I strongly recommend
It’s great. It does what it is supposed to do.

Great little strimmer but be warned impossible to get replacement blades even from flymo!!!!!
Plug and play probably isn’t the right term to use, but it really was that simple. We plugged it in overnight for a decent charge then enjoyed the freedom to reshape our overgrown hedge without needing to worry about dangling wires or needing to feed an extension cable through a window.
I’ve now been maintaining that 30ft length (4ft tall) hedge for over three months and haven’t yet needed to charge the trimmer.
Compared to my old trimmer, I truly couldn’t believe how smooth and comfortable this was to use, even while it was chewing through deep layers of box hedge. The two-hand operation provided a sturdy grip and safety clip made it feel safe during use.
This strimmer is very light and really easy to us. It came within the time stated and I am very pleased with it.
Overall very pleased however, I am now struggling to buy spare blades as Amazon don’t sell them and I can’t find them on the manufactures site. Really bad!!
Very good product. Cuts down weeds really well. Light and easy to manoeuvre.
I liked the ease with which it was able to be set up, charged, and battery life was so much longer than my previous strimmer (not a Flymo) and the price was excellent, about half the price of some others. I like the spare blades being incorporated within the machine so if you run out or one breaks, you have spares with you in situ. I am in my seventies and it is a lovely light practical machine, easy to clean and I am very very happy with it.

The first blade broke quite quickly but I was tackling an area that hadn’t been cut for some time. I was concerned that spare blades were difficult to find but then they became available. So I purchased some spares and I don’t need to worry. Easy to use and changing the blade is easy too. I would recommend it.
I hoped this was not a wasted purchase as I thought the price was good. It wasnt. Lightweight, cuts well and stays charged long enough to get the garden done and we have quite a lot of hedging to cut. Weighed up against the price of paying a gardener this is great buy.
If you’re clumsy like me then this is a must buy. I went through 3 wired trimmers (literally…) before resorting to wireless and it’s made life so much easier. I can just hack and slash away without worrying about cutting the wire or running extension leads which just makes the job less stressful and quicker too. Battery lasts a good 2.5 hours too which imo is very respectable.
I have only used this once trimming a couple of bushes but it worked extremely well and it was easy to use.

Disappointed that you cant buy the blades easily. Now waiting till the 10th August before they are available.
Having had bad experience with string/wire based strimmers which jam, I decided to purchase one which uses plastic blades instead. This works really well, has lots of power and cuts nicely. Battery life is good (I have a very small garden but it will last a few weeks, trimming once a week).
There is a negative though – the battery isn’t removable so you have to charge the battery inside the strimmer which, for me, means taking the strimmer indoors to charge. This isn’t enough to demote it to a four star rating for me but it’s worth noting.
Best product I have bought for ages very easy to use very pleased with i

He likes it because it is light. As you get older some become to heavy
This was an impulse lockdown purchase. I wanted a cordless lightweight small garden vacuum without dual purpose blower. It is useful, although the debris container is very small & fills up quickly. However the motor is quite powerful and the item is well made, with the 2 x nozzle fittings attaching easily & firmly. Was great for rose petals on grass as well as general dirt & grit along edges of terrace slabs. On balance I am happy I purchased.

Very light and gives a good cut, was able to go through quite large weeds with no problems,
Blade was still like new after using for about 40 mins so hoping it will last for quite a long time.
Still power left in Battery and easy to charge only took around hour or so.
Also very quiet which is a bonus would recommend with hesitation.
after charging worked well cutting bushes hedges but some branches cause it problems.Been portable is + even 1 hour use still worked well
Purchased this to replace my old, heavy, cordless strimmer as the battery was due to give up the ghost. Good for trimming the edge of the lawn but not very good for cutting the edges which is what I wanted it for. But in saying that, it is very lightweight and cordless and not bad value.

Easy to put together, easily charged and light to use. I was worried about breaking the little blade, but have used it twice so far and no problem.
Would recommend.
As a pensioner with a body not so supple etc anymore,this is brill. The fact it’s so light makes it worth every penny. Rechargeable is so the way to go,especially for tripping hazards.
Lightweight but it’s up for heavy jobs.
Easy to use and manoeuvre safely.
Excellent price for a good product.
Recommended purchase.
Liked this strimmer because of its lightness used for lawn edging
Just what I wanted to replace a 20 years old, but still working different manufacturer’s cutter of simlar style, however the older one is a pain, as the huge battery has to be removed and charged in a mounted unit, then replaced to activate the machine, and that at times can be tricky, but this one, is already incorporated, Just plug into a point, charge and off you go.. 60 minute run time too! Not used yet, but looks perfect for my needs. Not able to lift heavy items and an arthritis sufferer..

When the trimmer arrived there was a massive chunk taken out of the side of the box, which just happened to coincide with the plug, so the top pin had snapped off. A plug change and a charge later it was ready to go. it is really straight forward to get going and so light. I used it for a solid fifteen minutes around the summer house and it was no problem. It cuts really well and left it all looking nice and neat. I have had to change the blade already and while it does come with spares it could get expensive if they need changing every time.
Being cordless, it is fantastic not to be hindered.
Flymo SimpliCut Li Cordless Battery Hedge Trimmer – Lightweight 14.4 V Li-Ion Battery Integrated (Including Charger), 40 cm Blade Length, 16 mm Blade Gap, Premium Cutting Performance.
We had an electric hedge trimmer before this came along, it was ancient and had most definitely seen better days…. It was in the out building of this house when we moved in and that was nearly 10 years, its gone in the bin now!
This one glides through the hedge easily with no electrical cables getting in the way like the old one.
It charged up in a couple of hours and was ready to use, once fully charged you get a runtime of 60 minutes. I’m not sure if the video has uploaded as I’m having issues with uploading videos at the moment.
But as you can see from the video(if uploaded) that it glided through the hedge and its not to noisy.
The integrated battery is 14.4 V, the cutting speed is 2400, the blade width is 40cm and a 16mm blade gap….. It’s lightweight and weighs only 2.1kg.
Its so easy to use, we have had no issues with it whatsoever.
Flymo are well known for garden tools and have been around as long as I can remember.
I think this is priced about right at 100.54 (11.3.20) and can highly recommend.
For years I have been using a strimmer around the edges of my garden and leaving the grass debris behind. Now with this handy gadget I can go around and hoover up the grass cuttings and any other small fluff. My garden is small to medium sized and there was enough charge on this to do the whole lot. Very pleased.
I have a normat strimmer which needs a cable. IT is a pain to use and as a result it doesn’t get used much atall.
I tried this one out on my uncut grass, about4″ tall at the moment.
IT is light,easy to handle and the blade works well. No need to keep thumping it to get a bit more cutting chord.Just keep going.
I wonder if I can find some mug…I mean some needy person to off load the old cable operated one on to!!
I can honestly say that I love this Flymo. I know it is meant for gardens and I have used it outside for leaves and cobwebs but after giving it a wipe down I have been using it indoors as well.
It is ideal for stairs being that it is cordless, as well as high up cornices and skirting boards. It includes the long crevice nozzle as well as a soft brush nozzle. The crevice nozzle for floor edges, corners and hard to reach places. The soft brush nozzle for dusting, skirting boards and hard to reach high up cobwebs. I found the battery life to be brilliant (product description says 20 minutes) but I’m convinced I went well over half an hour, finished my house and the battery was still going strong.
It sucks up powerfully (wet or dry) — I have been doing the cobwebs outside in the corners and after all the rain we’ve been having it worked just fine. It is fairly lightweight as well, especially for holding up while doing the cornices.
I did find that the filter is not that big and I needed to empty it before continuing but that’s because we have a Labrador that sheds hair at an alarming rate and it collects her hair with ease but really fills up the filter quite quickly.
The end of the Flymo has a rubber type accessory that needs to be removed when inserting the long crevice nozzle and brush nozzle but kept in a safe place because when you’re not using these attachments it protects the end of the tip from cracking if swooping across hard surfaces to protect and prevent accidental cracking of the tip. It also includes a charging dock which can be wall-mounted, but ours has found its designated place and I really love it.
This Flymo SimpliVac is an 18V wet and dry cordless garden vacuum cleaner. To me, this is a niche gadget which seems to be intended for picking up small quantities of clippings and soil etc., it is not a leaf vacuum. In the box apart from the vacuum, you get a charging dock/adaptor, long crevice nozzle and brush nozzle plus a user guide.
The unit feels sturdily constructed but at the same time isn’t heavy at around 1.3Kg and is well balanced plus easy to hold. My example took around 4 hours to charge and you get over 20 mins run time. You can either plug the charger directly into the machine or connect it via the wall mounting dock supplied which also has storage for the tools.
There are two filters — one looks washable, whilst the other looks like the sort that you can clean quite a few times but would eventually replace. In use, the unit is fairly noisy and there’s no speed control, just on and off, although the suction power is good.
The crevice nozzle and the brush nozzle are well designed and, in the case of the latter, you can retract the brush and just use it as a nozzle tool. The translucent waste compartment is easy to remove and empty but in my view is just too small and will require emptying quite frequently. The machine copes okay with wet and dry waste although the filters will need a clean after clearing up wet debris.
I am not a hardcore gardener and struggle a bit to appreciate which niche this product is intended to fill — it’s no leaf vacuum but I suppose I could see it being used in a potting shed for pickling up spilt compost or cuttings. It could also be used for cleaning up inside a car etc. but the tools are limited for that. Another concern is that I think it represents a sizeable investment for what it is.
Overall, a well made and powerful niche product at a price, my struggle is in deciding what the niche is.
