Flymo Resale Value Guides

2 guides to what used Flymo is worth — the price at each condition grade, which lines hold their value, and how to date or identify what you have. Flymo is best known for the hover mower, a design that suits small and awkward lawns and nothing else. Being clear about which type you have — hover or wheeled — is most of what makes the listing work.

Which Flymo pieces hold their value

Hover mowers in working order, which are light, cheap to run and genuinely suit small or sloping lawns
Machines with a sharp, undamaged blade and the collection box present
Mowers listed in spring, when the searches actually happen, rather than in autumn
Complete machines with the original cable undamaged along its whole length

And what pulls the price down

Damaged or badly nicked blades, which must be replaced rather than sold as working
Cut, taped or repaired power cables, which are an electrical safety problem and should be replaced before sale
Cracked hover skirts and housings, which affect how the machine floats and are model-specific to replace
Missing grass boxes, which are awkward to source and which buyers assume they can replace easily

Identifying and dating yours

These are the checks that decide which end of the range a piece sits in, and they are the facts a serious buyer will ask for:

Say whether the mower is a hover or a wheeled model, since they suit completely different lawns
Photograph the blade and the underside of the deck after cleaning, which is what a careful buyer wants to see
Photograph the cable along its full length and the plug, and say plainly whether it has ever been repaired

WishThrift does not authenticate or inspect anything. Condition and origin are described by the seller against five grades — what each one means — so photograph the markings above rather than asserting them.

Frequently asked questions

Is used Flymo worth buying?

It depends far more on the line than the label. Flymo is best known for the hover mower, a design that suits small and awkward lawns and nothing else. Being clear about which type you have — hover or wheeled — is most of what makes the listing work. Each guide below says which Flymo lines hold their value for that item and which have almost none, so you are comparing like for like rather than paying for the name alone.

How do I check a piece is genuine Flymo?

Say whether the mower is a hover or a wheeled model, since they suit completely different lawns. WishThrift does not authenticate, inspect or grade anything — condition and origin are described by the seller, so ask directly and expect an answer.
