Flymo Speedi-Trim Electric Grass Trimmer, 300 W, Cutting Width 25 cm, Orange

We all know and trust the fly brand for reasonably cheap garden power trimmers and strimmers which was definitely a factor in my purchase. I was not at all disappointed, it came in a far smaller box than expected due to some clever packaging and a snap toner design which, when assembled, seems very sturdy. The twin line head really cuts well and the assembled guide is handy when folded out although its the least sturdy part of the design. Integrated cable storage is a bonus although it has no quick release so you do have to unwind it the long way. Nice long lead as standard and reasonably quiet operation make it ideal for your every day garden strimming and trimming.

Used only once but it is portable, easy to handle and the quality seems decent. Only annoying thing is the autoFeeder keeps releasing spool every time it is turned on and off. So it quickly builds up to a long string very quickly and have to manually reverse it.

Lovely Flymo great strimmer

SUPERB HIGHLY RECOMMEND

I don't get on with it, when the guard is on the line doesn't seem to feed out; if you take the guard off it feeds out far too much.Also the guard has little to nothing to secure it and keeps coming off. When it arrived the interor cable was trying to escape out of the join in the handle.Not impressed. Would've sent it back and wish I had but have used it now.

Lightweight, simple and easy to use; perfect for trimming areas that a lawnmower can't quite get to, and much better quality than cheaper alternatives.Handy length ~10m cable that plugs into any main power plug, simply plug in, squeeze the handle and get rid of those ugly edges around your lawn.No need to worry about shredding your flowers, or covering your lawn in newly cut grass, as there is a guard/cover that prevents this mess.If you do manage to hit something by mistake, because the cutting is done by a wire rather than a blade, it's much safer and less damage can be done. These wires can be replaced when needed, and are cheap and easy to replace.

This product is a good little bargain. For the small price, I was expecting the product to lack power or not do a good job. But I was quite surprised. I cut the grass of my garden, edged the sides all to a good standard. I occasionally had to go back and cut the same part of the garden but it still kept the grass to a good standard of cut.A Garden Trimmer's main use is for trimming and edging, so if you are cutting a big garden, don't expect amazing results from a pretty cheap product.It was very easy to assemble and literally took two minutes to plug in, set up the cable and turn it on. Make sure you read the instructions before you use it as if you're unfamiliar with Garden Trimmer's, if anything goes wrong you won't know how to resolve the issue.I was surprised by the overall sound of the trimmer. I thought it was going to be quite loud but it was great. If you live in a private area and don't want to annoy your neighbours, don't worry because it's not loud.If you have weak wrists, take regular breaks. Even though it's lightweight, it can be exhausting to your muscles.Overall I think the product is priced correctly and would recommend for anyone with small to medium gardens.

Everything looked right on paper about this, so I bought one.Easy to clip the parts together, easy to use and very effective at cutting - for a while...!!!But - the strimmer cords are thin and weak - they just wear away and then tangle the ends up inside the main hub.You'll be taking the hub apart every 20 minutes or less to untangle the cords and re-thread them... unless you stop and re-start the thing every 30 seconds to feed a bit more cord through - which gobbles it up!A very nice strimmer, nicely designed, and spoilt by penny-pinching cheapness where it matters!At the end of the season, I can see my nice shiny new Flymo strimmer hurtling towards the bin!I won't be buying from Flymo again - a shame as they were a well-trusted brand once - long ago...!
