Flymo TurboLite 330 Corded Hover Lawnmower

Replaced this with my old flymo that I had for years, very powerful I cut it on the lowest setting my lawn looked lovely, I would highly recommend this flymo so happy with this purchase and a good price too!

In the 1970s I used some of the very first Flymos, as a teenager. It did help to remember how to manage the long cable safely and how to tip up the machine when starting, and if it struggled with thick grass, to let more air underneath.
This is a noisy little brat of a machine which does a fair job on a small lawn. Light weight, easy to manoeuvre. So light and brightly coloured orange you could be tempted not to take it seriously: but make no mistake, this is a vigorous thing with a razor sharp whizzing blade so don’t rush... And use a brush or (as I do) a twig or piece of kindling to scrape off the mush of grass from inside the hover skirt. Always clean the machine otherwise it won’t work properly.
Buy the 13Amp safety extension cable, then you’re sure to get the full area done.
If you’re a lawn fanatic this is not the machine for you. I set the blade at its highest, to leave plenty of grass to survive end of winter frosts etc. The first cut was quite uneven but it had to be done between rain showers...
...Flymo cutting really does need dry grass. More 1970s memories!
I’m confident of getting a more even cut with the blade at lower settings, in dry conditions. I don’t mind kicking the odd lump of grass cuttings into a flower bed or breaking it up on the lawn. The bits just blow away or fade into the ground.
Only for small lawns. Light and easy to use.
What was the original slogan? - Oh yes: “It’s a lot less bovver with a hover!” :)

This is a good mower for a small lawn the people who say this is a rubbish mower don't know what they are talking about and sounds like don't know how to cut grass at all I've had this mower 3 years with no problems so why don't you go and by bigger mowers

if you expect it to cut the grass ... it will.
if you expect it to collect the cut grass for you ... it wont.
but it is light and you get what you pay for.

I don’t know how I managed before with my cumbersome mower. It’s light, efficient and a pleasure to use. I have a large garden and it suits me well. I suppose it depends what finish you are after. For me as long as it cuts the grass, that’s fine and it does!
