Hi,

My 12 years+ Flymo Rollermo has packed up. Budget of £110-120 max,
Any recommendations? Medium sized lawn. Want a roller on it too.

Options probably are
Bosch 
Flymo
Webb
LawnMaster

Black Friday may mean some saving, but not the right product at this time.

    Given the site we're on, are you in any of your local Facebook recycling groups, or on Freegle / Freecycle? Mine seem to have lawn mowers on offer for free almost all the time. When mine packed up, someone up the road put one out with "free to a good home" on it.

    Bosch Rotak......German design & build quality. Highly recommended.

    I can recommend the Cobra lawnmower - I have an electric one and thought it seemed more solid than my friend’s Bosch Rotak.

    I did have a minor issue which under 3-year warranty was resolved quickly.
