The Flymo Quicksilver 46SDR is a self-propelled lawnmower, upgraded from the 46SD model with a rear roller, perfect for creating a beautifully striped lawn, together with providing extra stability when mowing close to the lawn edge.
A powerful 4hp Briggs & Stratton petrol engine delivers 2900 watts at maximum RPM, allowing the Quicksilver 46SDR to easily handle the thickest of grass. Cordless usage is obviously a further advantage of the petrol engine, giving the operator the freedom to roam without getting tangled up in electrical cable.
Flymo Quicksilver 46SDR RollerThe Flymo Quicksilver 46SDR is also easy to store, the folding handles save space around your garden shed. In addition, the handles have a soft grip material improving the comfort of the operator.
Whether you require a short cut, or want to leave some length on your lawn, the Flymo Quicksilver 46SDR should deliver, featuring an extended range of cutting height between 1.7cm to 6.5cm, available in 6 steps.
The large 50 litre grass box featured on the Quicksilver 46SDR saves time by reducing emptying trips. In addition, as with all Flymo models, practicality has been considered throughout the design, making it easy to detach, empty and refit in seconds.
Ball bearings are fitted in the wheels which reduce friction when pushing, to help make your mowing experience smoother and easier.

GOOD POINTS-
1) Light and easy to handle.
2) Powerfull engine that enables long grass to be cut at the middle length setting(quite short).
3) Groves cut in the drive roller give good traction.
4) Starts very easilly especially when warm.
5) Very economical.
BAD POINTS-
1) Plastic side guards on the roller break off very easilly exposing the drive chain.
2) Mower height adjuster handle sticks out to far causing it to snag.
3) Mower is a bit light to leave clear stripes.
4) Only one speed there is no throttle.
5) Safety handle needs to be pulled in to start the mower so every time you have to empty the grass you need to stop the mower(the blade starts automatically so if you tied the handle back you could easily lose a hand).
OVERALL-
I would recomend this mower to people on a budget. I was impressed with how it cut over three weeks growth of grass quite easily. Most of the bad points you could put up with if your not too fussy.
