Mower works well. Grassbox and lid a bit flimsy – two halves just clipped together and do not locate on the mower particulaly well. Height adjstment good, mowing action good

 

Easy to put together, the wheels make it light to use no pushing and pulling like a hover mower, powerfully motor, cuts long grass well, large grass box, handle folds to save space, it makes mowing easier and quicker great buy.

 

I am a little disappointed that it doesn’t cut as well as my flymo did therefore having to mow more often.

 

Great little Mower, the 1500w motor helps tackle slightly overgrown lawns with ease. Previously had a 1300w that would have struggled. Good for small to medium size lawns. Gives a lovely cut to the lawn leaving a nice finish.

 

Have been looking for a replacement mower as my 8 year old Bosch has given up the ghost. Saw this Flymo Speedi-Mo 360C at a reduced price and took the plunge. The construction of the grass box is a little fidly and the instructions are not that helpful but look at how it goes together and you will soon have it clicked together. Have used the mower for the first time today. It is much more powerful than my previous mower and has a larger blade and grass box so it saved me time. The motor is a lot quieter than I was expecting and I did not feel uncomfortable cutting the grass at 7pm. The mower does feel a little heavy but once you start it up, it is very easy to manoeuvre around and the cord is a good length and the handy hook in the middle of the handle means there is less need to keep moving the cord from side to side. Overall I am very happy with this new mower and would recommend it for medium gardens.

 

At nearing 67 I notice bits of me are wearing out or falling off – and the same goes for the mowers I’ve used over the years. Most have been Flymos in various forms because I like the brand and, usually, they’re lightweight. But they are not always up to the demands of the garden, quite long , on different levels, hazards to avoid (monkey puzzle tree, pyracantha, Ma’s favourite bulbs, hedgehog houses and more). When the motor on the last packed up on its first outing this year I went for something tougher, more robust, and hopefully resilient. This has more oomph under its belt , a more powerful motor, and while the wing nuts were a bit fiddly (they take a while to engage so persevere) and the blasted grass box in three parts proved a bit of a trial for arthritic fingers and developing depuytrens contracture, and kept falling off until I twigged where it was supposed to fit, it all fell into place. This time in one glorious and, for me, quite heavy mower. I like the fact the grass box holds far more than the last mower did, and that it doesn’t fall apart when I lug it off to the compost bin. It’s not quite as easy to upturn and clean as the last – but again the last was much smaller and lighter. I LOVE the ease with which I can adjust the cutting length and the choice. It’s wonderfully accessible – I don’t I ever figured out how to adjust it on two previous Flymos or was frightened at my hand’s proximity to the blade. The instructions are a bit meh. Lots of flying screws and other things but the really good news is most of the mower is already assembled. It’s just a matter of getting the handle into place , the blasted wing nuts to finally connect and engage, and remembering to adjust the height – I forgot I’d shrunk over the years. If you can be bothered , fold it all away for the next un-rainy day. If you’ve got the space leave it assembled but remove the grass box. If you’ve clipped it all together it will slide into place on the next venture out. As for the cut – it’s pretty good. Not quite as easy to manouevre as the smaller models but you gain far more with the impressive span of the cut. It covers far more ground but you’ve just to lug it a bit.

 

I had a Flymo Chevron which had done many years of service, which died. I purchased this as a replacement.

It was relatively easy to put together and is really lightweight.

I’ve used it for the first time today. The grass box doesn’t catch all the grass (even when under half full), the motor makes a strange noise as it turns off (akin to a sea gull), and needs both sides of the handle to be pressed to turn on.

I’m not sure I’ll get stripes as I did with the Chevron.

Time will tell!

 

Best lawnmower I have ever owned. Cuts the grass to perfection even when it’s wet. So glad I got i

 

This purchase was my second of this particular model – the previous one expired with a smoking motor yesterday after the best part of five mowing seasons/years. Not great but seems par for the course given recent past experience with certain more expensive German lawn mowers which had similar, if not even less, “longevity”.
Hey, ho, for less than 100 it is a great product. No roller but does leave nice stripes for a day or two after cutting. Lightweight, picks up the cuttings in the big box and easy to clean.
If only they lasted a little bit longer …………..

 

I purchased this mower in April during an Amazon Warehouse promotion. It was described as “used – very good”. When the large box arrived there was no damage to the box itself. On opening the box the mower itself was in pristine condition, and had obviously never been used. The two sections of the grass box were still in their clear plastic bags, and again were brand new. The instructions, and warranty card were all present.

However, when I came to assemble the mower, I realised that the fixing kit for the handle was missing. I contacted Amazon via their online chat, and the assistant was very helpful. He said I could either return the mower, or have a partial refund. As the mower appeared otherwise perfect (and I had got it for a good deal), I opted for a partial refund. I used this to buy the fixing kit from Amazon. This arrived quickly, and I was then able to assemble the handle. What I hadn’t realised at the time, was that the handle off the grass box, and the plastic “lip” were also missing.

Despite searching online, I have failed to locate a handle for the grassbox, so have managed to attach it by just holding the box on either side, and sliding it into position. This does make things a little awkward.

Aside from this, the mower itself performs very well. It is lightweight and easy to handle. The blade setting is easy to adjust, and it performs much better than my previous Bosch mower.

The fact that parts were missing does not detract from the fact I am very pleased with this mower. When I first contacted Amazon, they were quick to help, so I cannot fault their Customer Service.

I would definitely recommend this mower.

 

The first season I used this my lawn looked better than it had for some time.
I dont know why but this year it is not looking so good, the grass looks what I can only describe as twisted as thought the mower is making a small crop type circle before it cuts the grass off.
The design of the operating pull switch is not the best in its placement, it is awkward to keep pulled into the handle and can result in soreness of the area of the hand between thumb and fingers as this area of the hand has to grip the handle.
Removal of the grassbox has also not been thought through, left hand through the handle to remove it from the mower and then drop the box and reach under the handle to take it away from the mower.
Emptying the grass box is not simple, you have to rotate it through many angles to get the contents to fall out and then before refitting it to the mower you have to clear the grass off the chute the grassbox sits on.
The grove below the grassbox flap also fills up with debris as does the indentation in the top of the mower below the main carry handle.
All in all not a bad mower but some design features are poor and have not been thought through.
I expected better from this manufacturer, it’s not as though they have just entered the grass cutting market.

 

Flymo is certainly a make you can rely on. Found this machine sturdy and strong. Willing to take on
tough work with ease. Typical Flymo, good and reliable. Thank you

 

I applaud Amazon, no wonder thigh street retailers suffer when you receive service like I have experienced.
Bought this lawnmower model back is Sep. Stopped working 5 days ago, motor just cut out. Contacted Amazon and within 10 minutes agreed to replace and originated pick up and drivers of new mower.
If this was a retailer in the high street, would have not been easily resolved, all from the comfort of my armchair, stress free. 3 days later, mower picked up, new one delivered.

The lawnmower, despite motor issue, have recieved another mower of same model, we have small garden lawn so perfect, easy to use and store in shed.

Excellent customer service by Amazon!

 

Purchased this to replace my old lawnmower. Really easy to assemble, very easy to operate and manoeuvre. Cuts grass brilliantly even when wet. Really good selection of cutting lengths and a good size grass collection unit. Excellent value for money.

 

Assembly is relatively straightforward Tip: take care when to attached lip when assembling basket.
Cut height adjuster is very easy to use
The safety grip has to be fully against handle during operation and even a tiny fraction of an inch gap will cause mower to stop. My previous mower (Bosch) was less sensitive but just as safe (the lever could move about a quarter of an inch away from handle without stopping) and this made turning the machine during cutting easier.
There is no cable rack and you simply have to invent how to wind it round the handle. My old Bosch did have a couple of hooks one of which turned for easy release of wound cable. a quid on the price could have solved that shortcoming.

 

Got this from Amazon Warehouse when they had 20% off as it said the box was just damaged. It was purchased for my son & his girlfriend for their new home. He assembled it quickly & easily & seemed happy with it and said it had really good long cable & that he liked the handle on the top of it to make it easier to carry. He gave it a quick go & it seemed to be good but didn’t need to do a mow at that point.

 

This is a really good mower I have a huge lawn and this takes it on with no problems. The different heights gives you a choice of cut length and the collecting box is really easy to empty. I love it and have created some lovely stripes lol

 

Slightly awkward to assemble, particularly the grass box, but once together it’s a great little mower. Easy to manoeuvre and relatively quiet. Cuts well with plenty of options for blade depth.

 

Coped with a completely overgrown garden on the higher setting and then cut to a really nice length on the lower setting. Cuttings bin is very useful. Very east to manoeuvre. Light and easy to store. Very impressed indeed.

 

I have bought this for my daughter for Christmas so can’t write about that, but we have one the same and it is still going after 8years. So must be good value for money.

 

Oh wow my lawn has never looked so good. The box compressed the grass so do not have to empty too often, no longer have to are in edges as cuts right to the edge. The instructions for assembly are a bit bad I just followed the pictures and it only took a few minutes to put together. Very easy to use and to change the cutting height.

 

Huge improvement on my 11yr old cheapest in the shop mower. Wider blade, bigger collection box, more choices for height adjustment, cuts the grass well without tearing and has halved the time taken to cut my 100 sq metre back lawn. If you know what a mower should look like it doesn’t take long to attach the handles together and snap together the grass box which is the only fiddly bit.

 

as there were only diagrams with this and not step by step guide, I found it difficult to put together. Still havent been able to fold handles down flat for storing unless all screws are undone. However its very efficient and grass looks nice.

 

After my third Bosche mower needed replacing I decided on this as a fairly cheap mower to bridge the gap until battery powered mowers improve enough to be feasible for my use.
While it doesn’t feel the most strongly constructed of mowers, this allows it to have a light weight for manouvering etc.
The motor feels way more powerful than that in my previous mowers and it was able to deal with grass which was about a foot long and wet.
The grass collection is very good. While the collection box isn’t the largest in the world, this mower can really cram it in there so you’re not spending half your mowing time emptying the thing (by the way, it’s definitely worth the extra 1 or so to get the version with a viewing window.)
Height adjustment is very simple, but then that’s fairly standard nowadays.

All in all I would not hesitate to recommend this mower, it’s far better than its relatively low price would suggest.
