Flymo Turbo Lite 400 Hover Mower

Flymo to the moon.......

Advantages: Compact and easy to use. Two cutting heights. Light and foldable.
Disadvantages: Not suitable for larger gardens.

contact in case of trouble; I?ve never had cause to use it, so I can?t comment on the waiting times or customer service. ~~~OUR MODEL. We chose a Flymo Micro-lite 28 Hover Mower. It set us back £39.99 from Index; they are available in most shops, e.g. Do-it-all, Argos, B & Q, and they seem to be pretty much the same price. We got ours from Index because we don?t have a car and Index is within walking distance of our house. A hover mower was the best choice for our needs, because they are ideal for use on uneven, bumpy and sloping lawns: Our lawn is all of these things! Hover mowers are also lighter and easy to manoeuvre. ~~~SIZE & MOVEMENT. Our lawn, although small, is an awkward shape, with an apple tree and a large tree stump in the middle of it. This mower is compact (it only has a 28cm cutting width) and very easy to get ...

Review of Flymo Microlite Hover Mower

Flymo fails to impress

Advantages: None that I can think of
Disadvantages: This machine is not robust and broke the second time it was used

Let me start by saying I used to be a huge fan of Flymo. I have had their mowers for years but I figured that after many years faithful service it was time I upgraded my old mower so when I did to be honest I didn't look at other brands, I just went for my tried and trusted favourite manufacturer and I decided to buy their latest model. So, off I went to B&Q and came home with the new Glide Master. Out of the box I was really impressed when I got it home, for once I didn't have to put to together it was more or less ready to go straight out of the box with just a few minor tweaks. I was a little disappointed with the cord storage feature because to be honest all it is is a simple reel that clips on to the top of the mower which you wind the cord around. It did seem a little flimsy and actually not very impressive but ...

Review of Flymo Glide Master 360 Hover Mower

Becoming A Two-Mower Family By Mistake

Advantages: Easy handling over rougher terrain
Disadvantages: No grass collection. When all said and done, it only cuts like any other rotary mower

MONDAY 15th May Most people with grass to cut will at least have heard of Flymo - I'm not entirely sure they INVENTED the hover mower, but their name always springs to mind, for fairly obvious reasons. I've got quite a long thin garden, largely given over to grass, or 'nature' as it's sometimes known. For various reasons, I'd left the first cut of the year too late this time (away all weekend, still raining etc - you name it, I had an excuse for it). In fact up to one week ago, I was considering buying a scythe. Then three things happened. a) My next door neighbour lent me his wheeled rotary mower with 4 hp petrol engine, which I then used at maximum cutting height to give at least a perfunctory haircut to my grass. b) I then used my own trusty Flymo petrol hover mower to get it back to the more normal length - i ...
