Summer is officially here, and it's that time of year when gardens require a bit of sprucing up. Whether it's mowing the lawn for a garden party, trimming overgrown weeds, or tidying up outdoor spaces in preparation for barbecue season.
The days of lugging around a corded strimmer and being restricted by its reach are long gone. Cordless strimmers are becoming increasingly popular as people seek to make garden maintenance a pleasant, straightforward task rather than being a burdensome chore.
Now, customers can snap up the 21V Cordless Strimmer, Telescopic Lightweight Grass Trimmer from Amazon for just £31.58, reduced from £37.82.
This electric strimmer boasts two six-inch metal circular blades capable of cutting branches and tough brushes, while an additional ten six-inch metal blades can tackle weed piles and denser grass areas. It also features an adjustable telescopic rod that can be modified between 33 and 47.2 inches to suit different environments.
Weighing in at a mere 2.5kg, this strimmer also has an adjustable cutting head for various angles of use, and anti-collision iron bars to ensure customers needn't worry about the strimmer getting damaged if it comes into contact with anything hard or concrete.
The strimmer is fitted with an upgraded 1500mAh lithium battery, which provides an hour of use, allowing customers to hopefully complete all their tasks in one go, reports the Daily Record.
The strimmer comes with a host of additional accessories, including two lithium batteries, one quick charger, one wrench, a set of gloves, goggles and a handle, a grass guard, a pressure plate screw, a retractable tube interface and a gasket.
If this strimmer doesn't tick all the boxes, there are several alternatives available. For instance, the VonHaus 1000W 2 in 1 Grass Trimmer and Brush Cutter, priced at £84.99 from Debenhams, is perfect for tidying up edges around lawns, fences, decking and more.
Although it's not cordless, it does come with a lengthy 10m cable for easy manoeuvrability around the garden. Another option is the Bosch EasyGrassCut 26 280W Corded Grass trimmer, available for £35 from B&Q, which is lightweight yet powerful, offering durability and lasting results.
However, the Amazon strimmer has received high praise, boasting a rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars on Amazon. One customer commented: "Actually really good, very surprised by the quality and the lightness of it. Spare blades, easy to put together. Great value and excellent quality."
Another satisfied customer wrote: "Excellent product. Easy assembly."
One pensioner was particularly impressed, stating: "This strimmer is brilliant. I watched the video which was very easy to assemble. There are lots of different blades which made it easy for me to cut back trees, shrubs and remove weeds and dandelions from my lawn. If I can do it, anyone can use this strimmer. It's not heavy. I am a pensioner and I did not struggle with it. I don't need a gardener anymore, very pleased and impressed with my purchase."
While some customers left mixed reviews, one commenter noted: "Okay for the amount."

Another reviewer remarked: "Excellent at the price for light use - but use with care."
This aside, the 21V Cordless Strimmer, Telescopic Lightweight Grass Trimmer could be a viable, quality option for those seeking an affordable choice.

'Smart' robot vacuum that leaves homes 'sparkling' now almost 50% off
The HONITURE G20 robot vacuum is nearly half price and offers 4-in-1 cleaning A compact robot vacuum cleaner praised for making daily chores effortless is now heavily reduced, offering busy households a more hands-free way to keep floors spotless. The HONITURE Robot Vacuum Cleaner with Mop is currently available for £128.98 on Amazon, down from its original retail price of £249. That's a 48% discount on the model. Finished in sleek black and measuring just 7.6cm in height, the HONITURE G20 vacuum offers 4-in-1 functionality, sweeping, rolling, vacuuming, and mopping, with a 3000Pa suction power and low-noise operation at just 50dB. A Japanese-engineered brushless motor powers the unit, while a 2600mAh battery allows for up to 120 minutes of continuous cleaning. The HONITURE Robot Vacuum Cleaner with Mop features a 450ml dust box and 250ml electronic water tank that can be filled with non-foaming detergent. The vacuum's mopping system includes water-level control for better results, and it can switch between different modes without needing to swap out parts. The G20 is also equipped with intelligent navigation that follows a 'Z' path and includes sensors to avoid obstacles. It automatically boosts suction on carpets and increases cleaning power for pet hair and hidden dust. HONITURE Robot Vacuum Cleaner with Mop £249.00 £128.98 Amazon Shop Product Description Users can control the vacuum through a remote, app, or voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant. A 2-metre boundary strip is included to define no-go zones. It has an average rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars from more than 1,100 reviews.

One reviewer said: 'I simply can't do any housework particularly hoovering and mopping during my pregnancy. So I thought best to give it a try… Very smart, suction is very good… makes housewives' life a lot easier.' Another described it as 'really great,' adding: 'Glides along the floor sweeping up any dirt… leaves the kitchen tiles sparkling… My daughter was so impressed that she has purchased one as well.'

A third praised its suction and mopping, saying: 'It's amazing with good suction power. As a mop, it's ok for everyday cleaning… The customer service is amazing, I had a problem with the first one I ordered and got a replacement straight away.' However, not everyone was fully satisfied. One reviewer noted: 'The mop is not very good, leaves a lot of streaks… the battery has depleted quickly after a year.' They added that the product felt 'ok' overall, but struggled with corners and didn't receive manufacturer support. Another said: 'It's very 'just okay'… gets stuck on power cords or toys… the mapping on the app is poor quality and doesn't remember the last cleaning map. Handy for in-between cleaning, but still need a proper hoover weekly.' Still, with its combination of mopping, vacuuming, and smart features, the HONITURE Robot Vacuum Cleaner with Mop remains a strong contender in its price range. Get this product HERE.

Electric car fires in Scotland could be massively under-reported, experts warn
Scots police and firefighters say outdated recorded systems are to blame for a lack of accurate data on EV blazes. The number of electric car fires could be hugely under-reported, police and the fire service have claimed. Outdated recording systems are being blamed for the lack of accurate data on the number of blazes in the vehicles. New data shows only 17 electric vehicle (EV) fires recorded in Scotland since 2020-24, despite more than 80,000 of the cars believed to be on the roads at the end of last year. The Home Office Incident Recording Systems (IRS) rely on a predetermined list of categories to record incidents which excludes a specific category to record lithium batteries, electric vehicles, e-bikes or e-scooters. The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service said it makes it impossible to capture accurate data. It said it is contributing to a group supporting the Scottish Governmen t and Home Office in a review of the IRS platform. The Scottish Police Federation said it had also flagged up concerns over EV fires. Its general secretary David Kennedy said: 'The lack of specific guidance and up-to-date equipment tailored to EV fires is something we believe needs urgent attention. "We also share concerns about the outdated recording systems which mean the true scale of the risk is not fully understood or reported.' EV fires can hit 600C to 2760C and first responders can be exposed to dangers including hydrogen cyanide, hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride. EV fires can take much longer to extinguish and can reignite. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

Philips 'excellent value for money' wireless headphones get price drop
The Philips headphones are on sale in three colourways Headphones can be useful accessories for everyday life. They are ideal for commuting to work, going to the gym, walking the dog, or simply doing the housework. They're not just for listening to music either, they can also be used to take calls and keep up with the latest podcasts. Over at Debenhams, shoppers can currently find a reduction on a pair of Philips wireless headphones, worth £49.99, which are on sale for £34.99. For a limited time, the retailer will include a mystery free gift in consumer electronics worth £10. The Bluetooth-powered headphones are made with a cushioned headband for comfort, soft ear cups that can be angled, and 25 hours of play time when fully charged. Shoppers can choose from black, white, and light brown colorways, however the latter hue has limited stock. A Debenhams buyer said: "Bought these for my teenage daughter at sale price. " Excellent value for money, great product. Would definitely recommend. Daughter loves them." More ratings and reviews can be found on Amazon, where the headphones are also priced at £34.99. One consumer raved about the connectivity between the earphones and other devices. They said: "I've paired with the TV, and they're perfect." "Very good sound but to be listened to at moderate volume to enjoy it", said another shopper. Elsewhere, emerging marketplace Yimbly is selling these JBL wireless noise-cancelling headphones for £79.99, down from £99.99. Yimbly is owned by The Mirror's parent company, Reach PLC. Over at Argos, shoppers can buy these Beats Solo 4 On-Ear Headphones for £199.95. The headphones are foldable, making them easy to store in bags. Going back to the budget Philips pair, another user shared they thought the pair were good value for money. They said: "Nice design, materials with quality in line with the price, it is a good basic product that deserves five stars. "One star less only because at the time of purchase in the description it reported 25 hours of listening but the model selection button reports 50 or 11." Another Amazon customer, however, was not as pleased, writing: "Good sound. However, when it is charged, it cannot be used, and the foam crumbles with use."
