Question

Should I buy the Flymo EasiLife GO or the EasiLife?

Choose the Flymo EasiLife GO if your lawn is small and fairly flat; choose the Flymo EasiLife if it has real slopes, is a bit bigger, or you want a screen on the mower. Both are boundary-wire robots from the same Flymo family, with the same basic cutting system, so the choice comes down to a few specific differences.

Slope is the biggest one. Flymo rates the GO for 25% and the EasiLife for 35% within the lawn. If any part of your garden is steeper than a gentle incline, that alone points to the EasiLife.

Size comes next. The GO range covers 150–500 m², while the EasiLife runs 200–800 m². The EasiLife also cuts a little longer, up to 50 mm against 45 mm.

Controls differ too. The GO has LED "Push & Go" buttons and relies on the Bluetooth app for anything more; the EasiLife adds a small display and keypad, so you can programme it without a phone. The GO is lighter, at 6.1 kg against 7.3 kg.

Much is shared: the 160 mm cut, 60 cm passage width, bump-only obstacle sensing, no alarm, no Wi-Fi and the same warranty terms. Flymo doesn't publish UK RRPs, so compare the live retailer prices shown on the EasiLife GO and EasiLife pages.
