Customer photo review of Solid™ Cultivator

What really stressed me out with my previous cultivation is how it feels when using it but this one was really comfortable and dug through the soil with ease.

Being able to reach high branches without needing a ladder or hiring someone was a game changer. I finally got to cut those branches that have been bothering me for a long time. Really quick and cuts with ease

Customer photo review of SingleStep™ Lopper Bypass Hook head (S) L28

Trimming my branches was so smooth. -This pruning tool cut through the brunches like butter. I was so surprised that even the plants that would release a lot of sap held back a little.

Customer photo review of PowerGear™ X Telescopic Tree Pruner (UPX86)

This tool is unbelievable! I don�t need to get the ladder out every time I need to trim my pergola bougainvillea - fantastic tool and very easy to use. The blades are very sharp and great for getting to the taller trees that need cutting.

This is great for those �clean up� gardening days when you remove all the dead growth to make way for new, fresh branches and blooms. Easy to hold with a secure and comfortable grip.

Customer photo review of Plus Folding Saw SW68

This is a very handy little tool to have in your gardening toolbox. I have always been a bit apprehensive to use a saw for safety reasons but this is small, sharp, and very manageable for those quick clean clean cuts.

Plus Folding Saw SW68

It does exactly what it is supposed to do in an ergnomic manner. Ideal for people who are unable to bend down.

Xact™ Weed Puller

Works great, very effective at splitting logs up to 30cm diameter, which is the size logs I had on hand that needed splitting.

X-Series Splitting Axe M Blade (X28)

I have just received my pruning shears from the competition I won with The Gardener mag. I am totally blown away! I have arthritis in my hands and was battling to prune anything. The ease with which I can prune anything without force is amazing. I was a hairdresser for years and this feels like an expensive hairdressing scissors. I will never buy anything else for pruning in future. Thank you so much for sponsoring the prize.

The pruners are extremely sharp and strong, yet light. Easy on smaller hands.
