Wave goodbye to wobbling on ladders as this extendable hedge trimmer gets axed by £60
If you need to upgrade your garden maintenance equipment but don't want to splash too much cash, you're not going to want to miss this gardening sale that could save £60 Thompson & Morgan is currently offering a range of deals on gardening equipment, including products from the beloved brand Garden Gear. This sale includes a 5-star-rated extendable trimmer that would normally set you back a steep £149.99, but which can now be added to your garden shed for the reduced price of £89.99 while this deal lasts. The Garden Gear 900W Extendable Hedge Trimmer is an extendable hedge trimmer that allows you to trim even the tallest hedges without the need for wobbly and unstable ladders or steps. Easily trim branches, stems, and bushes without struggling or straining and with your feet firmly on solid ground, ensuring safe and easy garden maintenance every time. Boasting a maximum cutting length of 0.4 metres, this trimmer can easily cut through stems of up to 22mm in diameter. It is perfectly designed for dealing with awkwardly placed and hard-to-reach hedges and shrubs of almost any height or shape, as it lets you simply add on the extension pole and extend your reach up to 2.5 metres without needing a ladder. You can also adjust the angle of the hedge trimmer by 180 degrees, to ensure you can reach any plant that needs a trim. With a razor-sharp blade that promises effortless trimming, this gadget boasts a range of different safety features incorporated, including a front handle locking knob, blade cover, and safety button, to ensure there's no risk of harm whenever it's used. The position lock lever ensures that it will stay in position until you decide to change the angle, while the shoulder strap is comfortable and attaches to the trimmer to ensure even weight distribution and safe, easy handling. Plus, the red power cord is easily visible among shrubbery and hedges to reduce any trip hazards while you're working. One green-thumbed shopper who picked up this device leaves a glowing review, writing: " Very good extendable hedge trimmer, excellent for our higher bushes. It is quite heavy but it isn't flimsy, very pleased with it so far." Further prasie comes from this buyer who beams: "Easy to put together, cut through the hedge without any problems." Though one customer did share their less than ideal experience, saying: "I started to use the brand-new trimmer and the cutting head stopped working in under two minutes despite cutting only very light foliage. The supplier has sent a replacement which works well, and I am now extremely pleased with the item."
