Have used this mower successfully for 3years, now need another as it is wearing out. I am disabled and it works so well for me on sloping banks. Cannot find another anywhere! Has this so useful mower been discontinued? Do hope it returns soon as many people give it max good reviews...

Used the Qualcast Easi-Lite 28 Hover a couple of times a week in the growing season on a small back compact garden.The hover mower gives no problems on a slight downhill garden lawn and is light and easy to manoeuvre. Would recommend to all.

We have a very steep bank and I have had a number of hover mowers over the years and the Qualcast Easi-Lite 28 Hover is the easiest and lightest we have had so far. Would highly recommend.

I find the Qualcast Easi-Lite 28 Hover to be excellent, and certainly comes at a good price. It is also very light and little to no maintenance is required.

I chose the Qualcast Easi-Lite 28 Hover lawn mower as our (fairly small) garden is somewhat uneven. Figuring a tilting hover mower would suit the lawn, we went for this model and have regretted it ever since.
I suppose it does the job, but on the bumps and ruts it can be awfully hard to push, and I am a big strong chap! When the grass gets damp things just get worse, and the thing bogs down in the slightest of dips in the grass. I typically find two of the weedy plastic cutting blades are needed each time I mow, regardless of whether I find any unexpected objects in the grass. Hover it over the path as the other reviewer suggests and you can make that three blades. No wonder they come in packs of 20!
Having owned it for five years, my one wish is that it would break down. However, I can report that leaving it out in the rain didn't achieve this, so reliability is a plus.

We only have a small section of lawn in our back garden and the Qualcast Easi-Lite 28 Hover is perfect for this. It runs over our brick lawn edging and also the garden path making mowing the lawn a two minute job. The blades are very easy to change and the cut length is also very easily adjusted. Manoevring the mower is very easy as it tilts and so flows with you with very little strain on the arms. Touch wood, I have found the mower to be very reliable. It cuts damp grass with ease, however, as it is so light, if the grass gets a little long it's quite hard going. Would definitely recommend though.

Hey it's me again. I eventually gave this mower away to my parents who wanted to use it to mow a small patch of lawn beside a summer house (they had a 21 inch big petrol rotary mower for the main lawn). It was used a couple of times then sent to the tip. They disliked it as much as I did.
