Advantages: Light; good grass collection. Disadvantages: weak lower handle
I bought the Compact 300 in 2006 and, generally, have been happy with its performance. However, there does appear to be an Achiles Heel in the shape of the lower handle. I have have just ordered the second replacement. Each handle has fractured in the same place (just below one of the side fixing points). I had a Flymo before this and never had a problem with the handle, so it does seem that there is a design fault with this model. A replacement handle has cost about £17, and, of course, the phone number for Parts is now an 0844 ( the alternative number given on the 'SayNoto0870' site goes unanswered/.
I've also had a problem with the plug which attaches to the mower as the spring clip has flown off and, apparently, cannot be replaced other than by buying a new lead ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Partner (DVD)
Advantages: easy to use and store Disadvantages: unsuitable for large lawns
Absent a lawnmower since last year (the old Flymo had gone to the Big Skip in the sky) and as things were suddenly growing, a new device for keeping the grass in reasonable order was needed. At the weekend, the lady wife suggested a trip to B&Q the following Wednesday when the pensioner discount was available.
I checked with Ciao on availability, price and suitability. The Qualcast Easi Trak 320 was in the right price range and with positive reviews. The cheapest price was from Amazon at £57.20. This included free delivery within 10 days. I ordered on a Saturday and by the next Wednesday it was on my doorstep - the same day I might have driven to B&Q.
The product was well packed. It required assembly but that was very easy to do; I managed it in 15 minutes without even wearing my glasses. The only fiddly bit was fitting ...
