Seems pretty decent, 110 is a good price for a branded lawnmower with a respectable warranty as opposed to the generic cheap brands of places like Woodies/B&Q which would cost the same without the strimmer.

Included strimmer is probably a basic 250w model or similar worth around €30-35 but it's overall a pretty good package.

Just be aware that a 33cm cut width on the mower will take a lifetime on anything bar a small grass space.

It cuts the grass fine but one arm has broken already and I've only had it a month, the bit it clicks into has popped off so it's not much use to me
Sod's law it's just after the 30 day guarantee has expired

It's too weak in my opinion
Go for something stronger

There's a 2yr warranty on this.

Bring it back to argos, 30 days is not an expected lifetime for a lawnmower.

Argos will just ask you want you want, replacement or refund. Their customer service with faulty items is superb.
