    Had one of these for one year approx and it is an amazing piece of kit. Its a plodder rather than a high revving cutter and hence due to the design branches are reduced to a rough rather than fine mulch. If you have a big garden like me, buy one .... you won't regret it!!

    Like several others reviewing this product my Flymo Pac A Shred Shredder has broken. The casting holding the cutting plate has cracked all the way around. Additionally the machine is very heavy and cumbersome, and actually rather slow to use even before it broke. I paid nearly £200 pounds - ...

    I bought the Flymo Pac a Shredder as a birthday present for my wife but having read through some of these reviews I felt I had wasted my money before she even tried it.......... We had recently taken down a 20ft high leylandii, put the trunk to one side for use on the log burner next year and were l ...

    Purchased a Flymo Pac A Shred about 16 months ago and at first it did everything asked of it. Removed it from the shed this summer to dispose of the garden waste and it wouldn't shred. All it produced was a long line of half chopped garden waste. After watching it work for a while I noticed that the ...

    I've had two in the last month and both have failed for the same reason. The machine uses a bladed cog, which cuts against a striking plate. The plate is adjusted with an Allen key so that it it is kept in contact with the the cutting cog. Unfortunately after a day's use with branches close to the m ...

    Really did my homework on buying a shredder. It was a toss up between the Flymo and the Bosch AXT 2200HP. I was outbid on Ebay for the Bosch and then spotted a brand new, still-in-the-box BIN Flymo Pac A Shred Shredder for £130 being sold by someone in the next town.
    Used it today for three h ...

    After doing some research on the web, I picked the Flymo Pac A Shred Shredder because I wanted a quiet shredder which would auto feed, and was reasonably priced(£169 B&Q). It has performed very well.
    I under stand the previous comments about larger pieces after shredding, but this is not a pro ...

    This Flymo Pac A Shred is my third shredder, and by far the best. It dealt with a mountain of laurel quickly and quietly, far surpassing my expectations. It coped with thick branches with real ease.

    Just purchased one of these Flymo Pac A Shred Shredder today after killing a cheap 'Pro performance' cheapo shredder. It will chop anything you throw at it and it's quick. The mechanism uses a sharp toothed gear which seems pretty robust. It folds away neatly into it's own box and has wheels to get ...
