Flymo Speedi-Mo 360VC Electric Rotary Lawn Mower, 1500 W, 36 cm Cutting Width

I bought this mower to replace an aging cordless model as the battery was no longer up to the job - it lasts ok, but the motor was not as powerful as it was and the battery kept over heating which meant I spent more time charging/cooling down than I did actually mowing. This was a breeze to put together, took no more than 10 mins and that included a quick look at the manual to see how the grass box fit together. First off this mower is light - much lighter than my old battery operated one (to be expected as no heavy battery), however this is really manoeuvrable. Second it has a very large cutting deck, which means less time to mow - as it mows more in a single line than my old one. The best thing by far though was how tall grass it cuts. I used it for the first cut of the season and the garden was a bit like Jurassic park (without the dinosaurs) in other words the grass was long. I put it on the highest cut settings and it made light work of the tall grass which was around 6 inches in places. The viewing window in the grass box lets you see how full it is, but I just kept going until I had finished the lawn (which was damp in the very tall grass). This mower took it all in it's stride. I was able to complete 3 fair size lawns in super quick time. I have tried a number of other brands since owning the first Flymo's many years ago, but having used this one I think I will stick with them in the future. The only negative is the cable is short at 12m. One lawn is double that, while the other is 1.5 times that, with the 3rd being smaller but much further away from an electrical outlet so I needed to use a long extension cable, but the disadvantage of the cable is smaller than the disadvantage of using a battery operated mower! I got this mower in the spring deal, but to be honest, I would have been happy with it had I paid full price! Great mower and I can highly recommend it!

Good product, met our expectations

reasonably priced lawnmower which does a great job of reasonable length grass. It is very light, which is great and it moves very well. The wheels also make it highly manoeuvrable and it is very easy when you need to turn it. The collection box is large (much larger than our previous mower) but is a little flimsy and we have trouble keeping it clipped together. Sometimes. if the back clips give way, you get showered in cut grass but that has only happened a couple of times. The cable (which is not a plug-in, it is integrated) is not particularly long and for medium to large gardens you may need an extension cable. Overall, no real problems and it is a big step up on our old mower - definitely a budget mower to consider.

Good and prompt delivery. Sadly the lawn mower died suddenly within half an hour of its first use. Very disappointing.

Easy to put together, just took one person. I like the manoeuvrability/portability of this mower with the wheels compared to our old hover. It cuts well is well made and I like the fact that it is super easy to adjust the cutting height. The grass collector is easy to take on and off and it holds a good amount of cut grass. Would recommend.
