We used to have one when we first moved in here as we just could not afford a powered one. They are okay if you keep on top of the grass. A bit hard going if you let the grass grow to long.

Agreed.
They are actually pretty easy to use if the grass isn't super thick or super long. Much smaller and easier to manouver than a big petrol powered mower. We have one to do the courtyard in our unit, about three times the size of what you are talking about. $60 ish from Bunnings.

Thanks for the advice. I might get it professionally done first up and then maintain it from now.
Mitchell got a lawn mower that blows bubbles for Christmas so he can help me.

Hahahaha I used one last weekend on our longish grass.... Absolute hell....... I could see how you could use it on very short grass but they are a lot of muscle work.....
too much for me and I'm pretty fit, have only about 4m x 4m......

we went to get one recently but the line trimmers were cheaper so we ended up getting one of those

i am the world's worst gardener! it's a whipper snipper - it doesn't cut the grass to perfection but ours isn't a lovely lawn, just random grass! it's electric & gives it a good trim. it does edges as well, if you're that way inclined! i don't think you need both...but as i say - extremely lazy/bad gardener here!
