Simple lightweight mower. Doesn’t do anything fancy, but that’s not what I bought it for. Has been reliable and produced a good quality cut. Not much to go wrong and a good price.
I bought this for bumpy ground and embankments and it works really well, I don’t think it mentions this in description but there is a very handy roller built into the bottom at the back enabling you to push it uphill more easily. I did have to secure those plastic attachments that hold the struts for the handles in place it seems a lot of people have that problem reading reviews of this and other Flymo mowers but you can put a nut and bolt in or simply stick the ends on the outside with electricians tape.
Only issue was trying to change the height of the blade. It was really difficult to undo the nut holding the blade in place.
Great quality item, perfect for small gardens.
Very little maintenance needed, runs well, is a little on the heavy side, but for me, it is no problem.
The handles fold in half which is great for storage; and flymo sell a bracket which is perfect for mounting it with the extended handles.
It doesn’t collect the grass, however, I prefer mulching grass clippings and this is ideal for that.
This mower was easy to assemble, it’s lightweight and easy to manoeuvre which makes cutting the grass enjoyable. Would recommend this product.
Ideal for my small garden, I can lift it easily and putting spacers in was fuss free. Although there’s no grass box I found that if I cut grass regularly I don’t have too much trouble with cuttings being blown out. Good little mower.
easy to put together – a bit noisy but works ok on dry grass
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
Had this delivered to my mother in law, fast delivery and value for money would recommend
Thank you
This was purchased for my Sister-in-Law, who has a gardener to cut her back lawn. This meets all her requirements and excellent value
I got this as my lawn i have 2 small lawns and my original lawnmower was a pain to carry from back garden to front, this is so easy to use and much lighter to carry doesn’t cut quite as short as my previous lawnmower but that’s fine. Very very pleased with this one!!
I am in my late eighties and need ever lighter tools. This mower is certainly the lightest we have had and is very easy to use. The only slight drawback is that the mains cord is quite a lot shorter than my last (heavier) mower.
We bought this mower for our front lawn. It seems best on fairly short grass, so it needs to be cut more frequently but as it is so light, it takes a short time to use so this is not a disadvantage.
A Lightweight Lawnmower, purchased for a pensioner, great for the smaller garden, manoeuvrability is great & easy to use.
Our grass area is on a slope so we need a light mower which is easily manoeuvered. This mower fits the bill perfectly. It has more power than I was expecting from such a small mower and I’m very pleased with it.
Very good little machine bought specifically to cut two smallish area of grass. that were too small for my petrol mower.
ot powerful enough for my medium sized garden and over heated, ok for a small garden though
Love this mower very light to use really is a good mower.
This was good value for money
But doesn’t glide like I thought it would
Also doesn’t cut low enough
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.
This mower was easy to use in a small lawn. Just like hoovering. The flex had a long enough reach and the mower folded enough to store. It was necessary to undo the screws holding the handle to do this.
This small hover mower is ideal for small steeply sloping areas of lawn and I now have two – one for the front garden and one for the rear. They are light in weight and can efficiently cut areas where a heavy mower would be difficult to use safely. They are very easy to assemble and can easily be hung on a wall for storage.
Didn’t expect too much from this mower but it does a great job. Have even started to enjoy cutting the grass
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.
We have a steep bank and this is light enough for me to cut both from the top and from the road holding the machine to cut the grass. I deducted 1 star as the wheel could be positioned slightly more prominently to assist with dragging the machine up the bank from the top
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.
Lightweight and very manoeuvrable.
Had a problem with one side where the push stud kept coming out so that we eventually altered it which means that the handle goes flat instead of staying up but that’s ok.
look, this mower is perfect for my small lawn, it would probably be equally as good for bigger lawns but you’ll need more extension lead, inverting this discussion ok .. mowing lawns is difficult particularly if long grass/ wet/ obstacles etc but .. every aspect of the process will probably be more difficult with a bigger mower, this mower has plenty of power, i wish it were completely weightless but that isn’t possible, as it is, it’s probably the lightest and cheapest mower there is but most importantly i like it very much
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.
It is easy to assemble, light to move around and is thus perfect for a small lawn. It can hang on the wall but folded it takes up very little space in a shed or garage.
Lovely light weight mower, gives a nice neat cut but doesn’t like long grass to much as it’s only got a little motor. Value for money and easy to store and use.
Hi flymo good product and at a great price ideal for a small garde
for me an excellent little mower as my lawn slopes a good bit, its so easy and light to move around ,the plastic blades are very good and so easy to fit. all in all….lovei
Ideal for a small garden, neat and lightweight. Arrived next day.
Simple and easy to use lawn mower.
Not the most powerful mower in the world but great if you have a small lawn.
Easy to assemble and light weight
So good if you have issues with heavier lawn mowers.
great little mower. have had several and could never heighten or lower the cutting blade. this is so easy and safe with the tools provided and easy to clean and store. I bought a separate bag for mine but it stores quite nicely and compactly and does a great mowing job
Found this mower really good as I’m only little.easy to use and lightweigh
Easy and light to use but doesn’t cut grass very sho
Really lightweight and easy to use. Very pleased with it.
yes lovely. light weight, easy to push. very enjoyable to cut my grass now
I find this mower does a great job and means it is not such a massive effort to cut the grass !
Easy to lift, and chops the grass nice a finely so saves me a lot of effort !
I bought this for my husband and he really likes it. It was very easy to assemble and lightweight and easy to use.
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’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.
Works well and cuts grass. Does not have a grass collector so leaves grass to mulch on your lawn. This means no collecting and raking up grass; however, wear wellies as you will get grass clippings thrown all over your feet/ lower legs.
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
Bought for my small garden, it does the job intended – cutting the grass .
Comes with the accessories to manually adjust the cutting height which is worth doing in order to keep your lawn in the best condition .
Easy to clean with the scraper provided .
Does not collect the grass like other models .
Handle folds parallel to the base making it easier to store away .
Wasn’t expecting much from this but pleasantly surprised. Only have a small grass verge to cut as the council have pretty much given up cutting the grass now so didn’t want to spend a fortune. Despite the grass being long and full of thick weeds it cut through no problem. The folding handle is a bit of a poor design but other than that all good.
Very light and easy to put together and use. Just right for small garden.
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.
This is a very good lawnmower and easy to use,I bought it for my daughter and she is really impressed.Easy to store and very light to use.Quick delivery too
This was purchased for my niece – she loves it!
Does what it’s sipppose to do very easy to assemble. Doe not pull at the grass like our old mowe
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.
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!
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.
. easy to put to together
. blocks provided lower the cutting height. They fit together easily & is a tool provided to loosen & tighten fitment.
. Small footprint means it’s easier to push forward & create lines, than swinging side to side.
. Slightly heavier than old model but cuts very neatly.
. Very powerful for the price.
. Only one negative & that is it’s noisier than my old Flymo. I don’t like to disturb my neighbours too much – it cuts quickly though..
. Overall great value compact mower for smaller lawns that doesn’t take up lots of storage space.
Ideal for a small lawn. With a metal blade, cutting is more efficient. You can adjust the height of cut. Easy to clean and store in a small shed. Parts are easily available. Does the job I ask of it.
Its lightweight, small enough to store away and does the job I need it to do on my small lawn.
Super light weight cuts well and I can finish the garden in half the time.
Cheers xxxx
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 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!
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.
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.
