Prise anglaise alors que j’habite en Belgique

The motor was dead on arrival. Completely useless.

Arrived today and just tested it,

It’s not bad to put together but the instructions are poor “not hard to follow” but generally poor in their presentation,
Operation is very good to get it running but once I put it onto the grass it’s performance was exceptionally poor, the grass is not contained underneath and it spits it out up to 6ft in the air “I am 5ft,6inch” and I was higher than me. As it doesn’t contain the grass it chuck it all over my decking and pond so now it’s a massive clean up operation after using it.
It’s quite loud for a small machine as well, I was very disappointed in the cutting width,to me it’s too small another inch would be much more useful.
The basket doesn’t really collect much grass for my liking and changing the blade is not a safe operation as you need to grasp the bit that spins around to get the spanner on the bolt to unlock it, but if your hand slipped you will slice your hand open.

Overall I am dissatisfied and disappointed with this product and will probably be sending it back as it’s not what I was expecting in performance or safety.

The only good thing I can really say is that it’s lightweight.
Otherwise it’s poor value for money.

I was very sceptical from reading the mixed reviews but it is very good!
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.

I’ve used this mower for my small lawn for about 6 months now, it does exactly what you would expect from a Flymo hover mower and does so at a great price. The mower is very light and easy to manoeuvre, the blades are decent and cut effectively, even longer grass. The assembley process was easy and the instructions are were clear.

I do have two issues, the grass box is very small, my lawn is about 5mx5m and I have to empty it about 4 times per cut. Its not a massive issue as the as its so light that taking the amount to the garden waste bin becomes quite tiresome when you are trying to cut the grass quickly!

The second issue is build quality, I have used Flymo mowers, for more that 25 years and never really had any issues, this one however has very poor build quality. The plastic is very thin and if not correctly placed could buckle or break in the assembly. The other issue with build quality relates to the plastic hinge/retaining bolt that holds the handle to the mower, this broke after only two mows, and I have replaced it with a metal bolt I had lying around.

Overall, ok for the price but build quality lets it down.
