I can’t agree more with some of the other comments in here. The so called “product designers” should have to use this as their only mower to understand it’s flaws. It goes against very basic product design practices. If you want a bad back, very difficult handling and a lawn mower that constantly wants to flip backwards, then this is the one for you. I’m 31 years of age and I feel like I have a bad back from one use. It simply goes against human ergonomic design.

This is by far the worst lawn mower I have ever had the misfortune to own, at best it tickles the grass leaving it as if the lawn looking as if was mowed over a week ago and is about ready to be done again. The designer of this mower should be forced to use it on his own garden, if he did he would never design an item again which simply does not work. Did nobody test this item before placing it on the market? There is some blame to come to me for this as I should have read reviews befor purchasing this on impulse.

Absolute rubbish. Do not buy this mower. It is very hard to control 1 handed. It doesn't hover when the grass box is used as its too heavy. I have researched flymo reviews and it seems as though Flymo are using cheap motors, as they only seem to last for 3 years at best. There is nothing good about this piece of junk. Be glad when this piece of junk blows up, so I can go and buy a decent mower. NOT FLYMO.
