Remember you only get what you pay for. For stripes I believe you do need a
roller. I am sure that I did see an rotary mower advertised last year that
also had a roller but I can not remember the maker but if you can find one
it may do the trick.

I have a 20 year old flymo mower and looking to buy a new mower. The
flymo leaves a lot of cuttings and leaves the grass "soft" with it not
cutting short.
I'm wanting to get a "hard" short cut grass with stripes, i've been
treating it and feeding it and the condition of it is fairly good but
not good enough for a cylinder cut mower.
Am i expecting miracles if i only buy a cheap mower like the Qualcast
one?
B&Q have them on offer at just under 90ukp at the mo.
