As spring approaches, many will be keen to spruce up their outdoor spaces in preparation for the warmer weather. However, lawn maintenance can often feel like a battle with unwieldy mowers, making it a task many would rather avoid.
Now, there’s a solution on offer with the Flymo Speedi-Mo 360C electric wheeled lawn mower, currently reduced to £99.99 from its original price of £134.99 on Amazon. This lawn mower is touted as ideal for first-time homeowners, capable of tackling medium to large gardens and boasting user-friendly operation.
Equipped with a carry handle, a 40-litre removable grass box, and dual lever handles, this lightweight mower weighs just 11.5kg. It features a 1500W motor and a 36 cm cutting width, complete with a central height adjustment lever offering five cutting heights (20-60mm).

If buyers want a slightly cheaper alternative, they could opt for the McGregor 30cm Corded Hover Lawnmower for £90 from Argos that has 1450W and is described to be perfect for small to medium-sized gardens. It also has a cut height adjustment feature that gives buyers a range of cutting heights that they can choose from.
Another option could be the pricier Stiga Collector 136e Klt for £229 from B&Q, which is said to be lightweight and agile at 11.75kg and is fitted with a 34 cm cutting width with six cutting heights ranging from 25-77mm to suit the conditions, reports the Express.
The Flymo lawn mower has garnered an impressive 4.6 out of 5-star rating from a whopping 8,180 reviews, illustrating widespread buyer satisfaction. One pleased customer praised the device, stating: “Great little mower, easier than the hover mower due to the wheels. Cuts well.”
Another enthusiast expressed their approval: “I love this mower. I bought the last model some years ago, this is the same quality but improved collection box design. Excellent stuff,”.
A different buyer recounted their positive experience: “I’m so happy with this lawn mower… it cut straight through the grass my old mower wouldn’t entertain, collected the grass nicely in the container, was easier to use and push along, easy to change the blade height. I have a massive garden and have done the job lovely.”
Not every user, however, shared the same sentiment, as one dissatisfied customer remarked: “Too many parts to put together especially the grass box, should be one piece, keeps falling apart when taking grass out. Not sturdy enough.”
Another offered a mixed review, specifically pointing out the product’s durability issues: “Good for a small garden now and again. Bought June 2024 but by mid October was showing signs of wear and tear and not performing reliably.”
