I tried the Flymo lawnmower that makes cutting the grass feel effortless – here’s what I really think

I’ve always thought mowing the lawn was one of those garden jobs that feels like more of a chore than it should be. My old mower was bulky, awkward to move around and took up far too much space in the shed, so I was keen to try something that promised to be easier to handle. After using the Flymo EasiGlide 360V, I can honestly say it has made a noticeable difference to my regular garden routine.

Designed for small to medium-sized gardens, the Flymo EasiGlide 360V is a 36cm corded hover lawnmower with a powerful 1800W motor. The first thing I noticed was how smoothly it moves across the grass. Thanks to Flymo’s technology, it floats on a cushion of air, which makes it much easier to manoeuvre around the garden, glide around corners and reach those awkward areas that can be difficult with a traditional mower.

The mower feels really easy to control, and I found I could quickly cover the lawn without feeling like I was constantly having to push and pull against a heavy machine. The dual lever handles also make it comfortable to use, especially when you’re mowing for longer periods.

One of my favourite features is the 26L grass box. It’s positioned on top of the mower, which makes it easy to see when it’s getting full thanks to the handy vision window. The storage design is another big plus. Garden space is often limited, so I really liked that the Flymo folds down neatly and can even be wall-mounted.

Performance-wise, the Flymo motor does a brilliant job of keeping the lawn looking neat and well maintained. It has plenty of power for regular mowing and makes light work of keeping grass under control. Compared to some battery-powered lawnmowers I have tried in the past, one of the biggest advantages is that you don’t have to worry about the battery running out halfway through the job..

The only downside I found is that it is slightly heavier than some other lawnmowers I’ve used before. While the hover technology makes it much easier to move around once you’re mowing, lifting it in and out of storage does require a little more effort compared to some lighter models.

Overall, the Flymo EasiGlide 360V is a great choice if you want a mower that is powerful, practical and easy to use. The hover technology makes cutting the grass feel much less of a chore, while the clever storage features and reliable performance make it a great addition to any small or medium-sized garden.

Despite being a little heavier than some alternatives, I think the long-lasting power, easy manoeuvrability and impressive cutting performance more than make up for it. It’s a dependable lawnmower that has made keeping my garden looking tidy much easier.
