Shovel Sling
This special development lets you easily carry up to 70 lbs of long-handled tools with simply one hand. If you’ve ever attempted to bring an entire bunch of gardening tools, you understand what a juggling act it can be.
ThermaCELL Mosquito Repellent Device
Now that summer season’s on the way, the mosquitoes are out in force. The ThermaCELL gadget releases a repellent that keeps mosquitoes and other biting insects away within a 225 square foot area. It uses a butane cartridge to warm up a little mat that’s taken in mosquito repellent (don’t worry, there are no open flames). There’s no need to pipe yourself down with DEET and there’s barely any odor (there’s also an “earth scent” one that’s perfect for searching). It’s not just a gimmick– it truly does work.
Ultimate Hose Nozzle
Sick of sprayers that do not even last one season? Constructed out of top-quality stainless steel, non-corroding brass, enhanced fiberglass, and Santoprene rubber, the Ultimate Hose Nozzle is developed to last. Even after 3 years of mistreatment, mine is still going strong. It’s available in a range of colors, has 5 different spray patterns, and can be taken apart for cleansing. Note that it’s not as efficient with low water pressure, but in regular pressure conditions it’s a remarkable nozzle that’s almost indestructible. And it’s fantastic for cleaning vehicles.
Work Gloves from Duluth Trading Company
OK, so work gloves aren’t technically “gardening gloves”, but for heavy-duty work like structure stone keeping walls, spreading gravel, or carrying firewood, these hard, flexible, and comfortable gloves are certainly an essential. The gloves have actually enhanced finger pointers, padded palms, and a Velcro closure at the wrist to keep out debris.
Earth Talon Shovel
That 2-inch point is intended to focus energy (the force you put in when digging) into a smaller surface location, increasing the digging power of the shovel blade. And yes, it really works.
Lesche Digging Tool
An extremely flexible tool that will replace numerous others, the Lesche Digging Tool is made in the USA with heat-treated steel that can be utilized not just for digging, but for prying up paving stones, moving rocks, digging through gravel, and so much more. The serrated edge cuts through hard things while the flat edge pieces cleanly. It even comes in a left-handed variation.
ARS Pruning Shears
ARS produces some of the finest pruning tools on the market (in my opinion they’re even much better than Felco). These have a turning deal with (almost an essential if you do a lot of pruning) but are also readily available with a regular manage and come in three sizes.
Bionic ReliefGrip Garden Gloves
Excellent fitting gloves that are difficult yet flexible can be hard to find. These great goatskin leather gloves fit the costs perfectly. With Lycra inserts at each joint to make motion easier, and cushioning at each pressure point to prevent blisters, the gloves are comfortable, lasting, and maker washable. These gloves are typically $39.95 however we have a special deal of $5 off for GPReview readers with voucher code GPR2015.
Corona ComfortGEL+ Extendable Bypass Lopper
This is one heck of a durable, telescoping, compound-action lopper. The deals with stay put and the blades cut cleanly through even the hardest wood with ease. The cutting head is heavy when the manages are extended to full length however the extra weight is more than offseted by the severe cutting power.
