Product Information

Full details

The Flymo 18V EasiTrim Plus 230 is a cordless grass trimmer ideal for maintaining small to medium gardens. Its key benefit is the freedom to trim without a power cord, powered by a versatile 18V Power4All battery. A potential caveat is that it uses blades instead of line, which may require different maintenance than traditional trimmers.
