'I bought a cordless leaf blower, it's great at tidying the garden'
I have to say I've been really impressed with this £50 garden gadget It's June, the sun is (somewhat) shining and we're all eager to spend more time outside. Especially my young son, Teddy, who's quickly transitioned from crawling to practically sprinting in what feels like a fortnight. Consequently, I had to sort out my garden, replacing a muddy corner that doesn't see much sunlight with a fenced-off play area. All well and good, problem solved, right? Not exactly. Despite the play area being fantastic, one issue quickly emerged - on a blustery day, the fencing essentially serves as a pen for collecting what seems like every leaf in the vicinity. Naturally, as a ten-month-old, Ted has to put anything he picks up directly into his mouth, so I was keen to find an easy solution to the leaf issue. I already owned a corded leaf blower that is quite powerful and excellent for clearing away things like hedge and grass clippings. The issue is, it's a bit of a hassle setting it up, as I have to retrieve it from the garage and get out an extension lead - not something you want to be doing daily. In search of a simpler, and quicker, solution for clearing leaves and general debris tossed around by the wind, I turned to the McGregor Cordless Garden Leaf Blower, purchasing it from Argos for £50. I've since found out that there's a way to get it even cheaper for £34.38 by using TopCashback, more on how to do that below. And I must admit, I've been thoroughly impressed. Its cordless and battery-powered design makes it a breeze to quickly whip out of the cupboard to clear the play area in a couple of minutes. It may not be as powerful as my corded version, but it's more than up to the task of swiftly shifting the leaves and tidying everything up. It's incredibly straightforward to use. Simply select the power setting you need from one to six (naturally, I always just crank it up to the highest setting), press the button and off you go. It boasts impressive power and is incredibly handy for giving the garden a quick spruce up. Initially, I noticed my hand beginning to ache slightly after pressing the button for a few minutes, only to realise it has a function to lock the button on so you don't have to keep it pressed down. My only minor gripe is that the battery doesn't last forever. It's more than sufficient to blast the debris scattered around the garden into oblivion, but if you're planning to use it for an extended period, you might be better off opting for a corded option like the Einhell Leaf Blower Vacuum, priced at £51.95 at B&Q. That model comes with a vacuum function and a catch bag, making it a preferable choice for gardeners wanting to collect the leaves and dispose of them. It's worth mentioning that the three reviews for that product are mixed, with two four-star and one three-star rating. Shoppers have remarked that it "does the job" but pointed out that it becomes "a little bit heavy after a while." If you're eager for the confidence that comes with well-known brands, Amazon carries Dewalt's 18V XR Compact Blower, albeit for a steeper £71.94. It boasts a design focused on being exceptionally light, making it an appealing option for those worrying about weight.

‘I've been very impressed with my powerful leaf blower and there's a way to get it for £34'
It's June, the sun is (sort of) shining and we're all keen to spend more time outdoors. Not least my young son, Teddy, who's rapidly gone from crawling to charging around and virtually sprinting in what feels like a couple of weeks. As such, I needed to sort my garden out, and replaced a muddy corner that doesn't get much sunlight with a fenced off play area. All great, problem solved, right? Well not quite. For all the play area is great, one problem quickly arose - on a windy day the fencing basically acts as a pen for gathering what feels like every leaf in the neighbourhood. Naturally, as a ten-month-old, Ted has to put anything he picks up straight in his mouth, so I was keen to find an easy solution to the leaf problem. I already had a corded leaf blower that is pretty powerful and great when it comes to clearing away things like hedge and grass cuttings. The trouble is, it's a bit of a faff setting it up, as I have to get it out of the garage and sort out an extension lead - not the sort of thing you want to be doing every day. Looking for a simpler and quicker solution for clearing leaves and general debris chucked around via the wind, I turned to the McGregor Cordless Garden Leaf Blower, picking it up from Argos for £50. I've since discovered that there's a way to get it even cheaper for £34.38 by utilising TopCashback, more on how to do that below. And I have to say I've been really impressed. The fact it's cordless and battery powered means it's so easy to just quickly get out of the cupboard to clear the play area in a couple of minutes. It's not as powerful as my corded version, but it's more than capable of rapidly shifting the leaves and tidying it all up. I've found it extremely simple to use, you just choose the power setting you require from one to six (obviously I always just stick it on the highest setting), press the button and you're good to go. It boasts really decent power and is so convenient when it comes to giving the garden a quick tidy up. At first, I found my hand was starting to ache slightly after pressing the button for a few minutes, only to discover it has the function to lock the button on so you don't have to keep it pressed down. My only slight annoyance is that the battery doesn't last ages. It's more than enough to send the debris lying around the garden blasting off into oblivion, but if you're planning to use it for a long time you might be better going for a corded option like the Einhell Leaf Blower Vacuum priced at £51.95 at B&Q. That model comes with a vacuum function and a catch bag, so will be preferable for gardeners wanting to catch the leaves and dispose of them. It's worth noting that the three reviews for that product are mixed, with two four star and one three star rating. Buyers noted it 'does the job', though they said it was a 'little bit heavy after a while'. For those who like the reassurance of a big-name brand, Amazon stock's Dewalt's 18V XR Compact Blower, though that's a bit pricier at £71.94. It's specifically designed to be nice and lightweight, so is worth a look for anyone concerned about that. How to get the Argos leaf blower for £34
