Getting set for summer.
You've ignored it for
long enough, but now it is the time to think about your garden. After
a whole winter of neglect it is now due a good going over; to get it
clean, clear, and set for the coming sunny season. To that end Aldi
have stepped up with another of their famous Specialbuy ranges, this
time filled with useful and affordable goodies for the garden.
The Aldi Garden
Maintenance Specialbuy Range, available in stores and online from
17th April 2017, is very much about the preparation our
gardens require for the summer, and is therefore filled with heavy
duty tools and handy accessories. Top of the list is a Workzone 2.2kW
Pressure Washer (£79.99), a Pole Hedge Trimmer (£64.99), A Grass
Trimmer (£39.99), a Hedge Trimmer (£39.99), and a Hover Mower
(£29.99).
To supplement the big
boys, the range also boasts a Wheelbarrow (£39.99), A Telescopic
Tree Lopper (£9.99), Path & Border Edging (£9.99), a Barrel
Planter (£8.99), a Kids' Gardening Set (£5.99), an array of seeds
(£1.49 each), and a few other bits and bobs. As ever, Aldi were kind
enough to bung us something from range to try out, and we were pretty
happy with what we got.
Gardenline Li-Ion Hedge
Trimmer
This garden tool is
light, compact, and uses a rechargeable, removable battery for power.
The half-metre long blade section is fully metal, while the main body
and grip handles are a mix of plastic and rubber. It is easy to hold
for long periods and feels nicely balanced in the hand. Those many
bladed teeth can snip twigs of up to 15mm diameter, so this can be
used to tackle thick and tough plants, as well as the typical leafy
hedges.
It's also pretty quiet,
which is something you might expect from Li-Ion powered gadget, but
the blades whiz by each other without a racket. Because of that it
isn't any bother at all to quickly whip the Gardenline Li-Ion Hedge
Trimmer out and keep on top of the fast-growing hedges all summer. It
also comes with a tough plastic blade guard which slides directly
over the cutting section, and also a battery charging cradle. Which
is nice.
This is a great and
very handy tool to have, especially at this time of year. Being able
to nab one of these for less than £40 is rare, so if you're sick of
those hedges taking over the rest of your garden, go for it.
