General Comments

I recently bought the Flymo 2700 garden vac, primarily for vacuuming lawn clippings from around our pool. We have a slab terrace around the pool, then lawn. Prior to buying the Flymo, collecting the lawn clippings meant grovelling on me hands and knees with a dustpan and brush, so I hoped the Vac would be the solution to all my problems. Wrong!

It's unbelievably unwieldy, heavy and awkward. I cannot imagine how an elderly person or unfit female would manage. When vaccing, the air drawn in has to come out somewhere and this is through the bottom of the sack which hangs immediately below the motor, thus blowing air back out on to the surface you're trying to clean and scattering the very stuff you want to suck up. Brilliant! The cretin who designed it obviously never tried using it for its intended purpose. Why can't the exhaust air be blown out the back of the motor? Furthermore, the shoulder harness is an uncomfortable waste of space.

The Easi Wheel expensive option is essential, unless you have the muscles of the Govenor of California. Quite why this an extra and not standard is beyond me.
