When I first had the Qualcast Concorde 32 i thought ..where are the heavy steel quality parts my father had, but when i used it i found it to be light, quiet and cuts excellent. You do need a flat lawn but it provides a perfect stripped lawn. Drawback in my opinion is the plastic catcher has to be emptied quite often, unless you cut the lawn at least twice a week. I just cut mine now after 2 weeks it was struggling a bit but then the grass was over 4" long! I do also have a flymo hover for the rough parts of my garden where the cyclinder mower cannot do.

I was given a Concorde 32 in 2000 from a neighbour who was moving to spain. As I was aware at that time, there was no such model by qualcast as a 'Concorde 32'. Still back then, you could buy the little Concorde 30 and the 'XR' rear collection mowers. I dont own this anymore, but i am sure my concorde 32 was different to this bigger one. Mine was a double of the Concorde 30. It was small, green, slim not bulky, and was superb to use. In fact looking at the Concorde 30 to compare with mine, the only difference was that my mower had a black handle, whereas the Concorde 30 had a green one. Plus the 32 was wider in width than the 30. Now the 'new' concorde 32 seems bigger and bulkier. Weird! Maybe Qualcast decided to changer their designs??
