'Impressive' Amazon hover lawnmower 'better than expensive models' slashed to £52
'What great value for money! It flies across my lawn with ease. It even comes with replacement blades—perfect.'
Before you can even think about setting up the barbecue this spring, you first need to tackle cleaning up your garden after the long winter months. The biggest task is normally cutting the lawn, which can become tiring quickly when you are lugging around a heavy mower.
Well, we have found a product that can make this task feel like a breeze - and it won't break the bank at the same time. The Black and Decker Electric Hover Mower is a lightweight and easily manoeuvrable grass cutter that was designed to make your gardening chores easier, quicker, and less taxing.
Normally retailing for £66.94, Amazon has dropped the price by a cheeky 21 per cent down to only £52.99. Perfect for smaller gardens and lawns due to its compact and lightweight design, you will be able to give your garden a new lease of life in no time.
This "small but mighty" lawn mower becomes especially useful when used to tackle sloped and uneven ground, reports OK! This is due to the nifty lawn mower's hover design, which increases the machine's manoeuvrability, allowing you to get jobs done with less hassle and in a quicker time.
The Black and Decker Mower is also very versatile as it comes with three cutting positions - between 20 to 40mm - which provides added flexibility to meet your specific lawn conditions and preferences. This mower also comes with a 10m long cable allowing you to get the job done without tripping over extension leads.
Ultimately, what makes this lawn mower a must-buy, is that it comes with ten replacement plastic blades. This saves you the hassle of having to sharpen blades in between uses and you won't need to fork out extra cash to keep the lawn mower in tip top condition.
Many Amazon shoppers have been shocked by the power that this hover mower provides, which has led to a 4.1 star rating. One delighted shopper wrote: "Great little mower. Powerful enough to cut through some stubborn brambles down the side of the house. Great performance overall.
"Very lightweight, I'm able to just carry around in one hand if needed to. Small enough size wise to fit into a shed or garden storage bin. Can dismantle apart the base and handles for storage. Not much adjustability in terms of height but it is worth the money."
Another shopper was pleased with their upgrade, saying: "My old Black & Decker GX300 hover mower packed up so I bought this one (being Black & Decker and having had the other one for years giving superb performance!) and I have to say it is quite an impressive little hover mower.
"There is a tiny bit of vibration through the handle when using it, but nothing really to write home about or uncomfortable, and it cuts the lawn brilliantly. My old hover mower had a metal blade, so I was a bit sceptical at first seeing these plastic ones, but they did good.
"It is light enough to carry easily and not all that noisy when used, and it does float/hovers above the grass well. All in all, I am very happy with it."
A third five star reviewer said: "What great value for money! It flys across my lawn with ease. Thanks so much. It even comes with replacement blades—perfect." While a fourth praised: "Had some more expensive ones with metal blades but this does a better job."
Another shopper also gushed: "Small but mighty. I had a very overgrown garden, but it didn't take long to get it all cut back. Great buy."
However, one shopper wasn't pleased with the weight of the mower, writing: "I wanted the lightest weight mower for a quick simple cut but in all honesty it was still too heavy for me to manoeuvre in hindsight a wheeled mower would be lighter but it's a great little thing if all you want is quick cut I would imagine it would be great for banks or sloping cuts."
Another shoppers also warned that the small plastic blades "don't last very long", while another said that it doesn't collect grass so you will need a rake.
