You ran out of cheese?
Got 2
(y)
Annnd guess what

I thought it was worth the punt for the price given the English summers! :)
That’s what puts me off too
Cushions look very thin. Might be OK for a typical UK summer, any more than that, say 4 hours instead and you are stuffed.
Bargain !!! These were 125+ each last year when I was looking.

Decent enough unit pretty comparable to the Bosch green one I also have. Blades are much cheaper for this & just as effective. Don't expect to wade through tall grass with it chomping it's way ahead - definitely more of an in & out affair to allow the blade to build speed back up. Did a decent size really overgrown lawn last week on two 3Ah batteries & wore one blade out on the edging to the slabs. If you steer clear of hard surfaces the blades will last ages & they are pretty flexible.
I had one of these from homebase (branded Ozito) a few years back. The rivet that holds the blade broke off on the 1st one (initial use). The 2nd one just kept braking blades every few seconds. I took it back and got the manager to use it and he also broke the blade in a few seconds. They are OK for cutting 'open grass', but as soon as you use it for 'edging' the blade breaks on anything harder - like stone, brick, fence etc because the blades are stiff & brittle. This is where you need the flexi nylon line that can keep extending every time the ends wears. I used up all the blades on the ozito (in 10 mins), got my money back, and bought a worx one where the nylon has lasted around 3 times per year for the last 4 years. For me - I use a lawnmower for open grass, and only want one of these for going into those tight edges (against hard thing) where the lawnmower wont reach, so they are not really fit for my purpose.
Blades all the way, probably does cost more but its worth it
Bought it on Facebook a week ago brand new £25 it's very good
Where from please?




I'd say your shed might be a better bet than a greenhouse, so should be ok. Plus if you protect the pots too, might be ok. Cheers
80%! Wow, I was planning on overwintering them in pots too but on a shelf in the shed. Might have to rethink possible purchases. It's hard enough to get things to grow and bloom in this erratic weather let alone survive until the following season. Good luck on tomorrow's visit, hope your local has a good selection.
I'm no expert mate, but everything I've read is they're not very hardy, so mulch them well and pray, or dig them out to be safe... I overwintered a load in the greenhouse in pots and lost 80% of them ☹️ I'll be popping in my local tomorrow to see if I can grab some more :)
Hehe, Is everyone buying dahlias? Is there anything else worth getting? Out of curiousity, do most folk dig dahlias/begoina out at the end of the season and store them away for the next year or do you leave them in the ground/plant pot.
Thanks, obtained some showy dahlias, 70% reduction and a further 10% off the total.

No idea, my partner preferred the colour of the ace and also that it slopped back instead of forward. Wickes has the Max for £130 at the moment for anyone that wants that one instead.
I ordered with the blue light code too and free delivery, paid £137 earlier today. Is ace better than max? A lot of reviews say otherwise?
We missed out on the free delivery, had to pay before 2PM for the free jubilee delivery offer. Yes I paid for delivery but checked out with that zip thing (£25 off £100 spend) and the £25 supposedly applies to the 4th ZIP payment
Hi, Thanks same here I can get it for the same price 137£ but mine is not coming with click &collect option only home delivery which is extra 12.50£. Did you pay for the delivery? Thanks
Delboy5: Don't worry about deleting the comment, the pun was too great to ignore for Hotuk community ;) These sheds are decent, however the early on models had issues where the hinges snapped or cracked off easily and even the main lids locking clip but keter fixed this and made a more flexible and durable material, I have the original 1st gen of these. Keter has excellent customer services sent me out twice the hinges and locks but the new ones now last. I made the mistake at first of putting this directly in the back garden where the sun was blasting it, Do not do this! Its plastic so its going to warp otherwise, my doors are slightly warped so don't close now but requires bit of push. So store this Keter in a shaded cool place. Otherwise Its fine, took an hour to put together on my own and was worth it, but always go for the biggest these get filled up very quickly with crap.
Your Guide to Cheap Garden Furniture and the Best Plant and Flower Deals
Britain is serious about gardening. So serious, in fact, that we spend around £30,000 per household on gardening over our lifetimes and spend an estimated 5,700 hours each in the garden throughout our lives. There's something about creating and tending our own patch of nature that appeals to our souls, but as any gardener will tell you, it takes more than soul to make a garden flourish.
Gardeners also need the right tools, plants, plant pots, solar lights, garden storage, and garden furniture to turn their yards into beautiful, manicured spaces that suit their own unique tastes. This hotukdeals buyer's guide delves into the world of garden products, and should help you find exactly what you need to turn boring old lawns into spectacular floral displays. From cheap garden furniture to cheap plants, we collect all garden deals here at our listings, so check it out!
Exploring the History of Home Gardening
There's a reason why the “English country garden” is known across the world, and why the Chelsea Flower Show is one of the pre-eminent global gardening events. Starting in the 18th century, the UK invented its own style of gardening, drawing on centuries of everyday practice to create natural-feeling, flower-packed spaces that were crisscrossed with pathways, fountains, and rock walls.
By the time the Victorians arrived on the scene, it was customary for wealthy Brits to cultivate a garden to impress their visitors. But the Victorians took things further. Gardening was an obsession for mi 19th century Brits, as they brought in plants from across the world, and the garden centre industry grew rapidly.
The middle class suddenly found that it had time, money, and space to explore gardening seriously. Flower beds, hot-houses, wooden fences, summer houses, and ponds all became status symbols (and matters of personal obsession). And this was reflected in novels like the “Secret Garden”, which drew on the importance of private green spaces for British children.
In the 20th century, working-class gardening became much more important, as parks became larger and more ambitious, allotments became available, and housing improved. By the mid-20th century, it was normal to find nurseries and garden centres in every town, with mail-order services for exotic seeds, and gardening manuals on every bookshelf.
Television helped, as well, with Gardener's World becoming a surprisingly popular show, while Gardener's Question Time still retains a cult following on Radio 4. And there are few signs of a gardening depression. As people become more eco-conscious in the UK, they are flocking to their gardens to grow herbs, fruit and veg, and to escape air pollution or urban noise. Balcony gardening in high-rises is even enjoying a renaissance, as any glance up in urban centres will prove.
If you are a passionate gardener, you'll know how expensive the hobby can be. So let's explore ways to save money and find the perfect products that will allow your plot to shine.
Where Can You Buy Garden Products in the UK?
Firstly, where are the best places in the UK to find a garden furniture sale, or affordable plants to add to your beds?
Until recently, out of town garden centres have been the primary option, and they continue to be extremely popular. Quality varies a little between companies but Wyevale tends to be fairly reliable, and runs branches across the country. However, check for independents in your area, as they may offer services and connections to landscapers or arboriculturists.
Supermarkets now offer an alternative for people who aren't keen to drive to suburban garden retailers and carry boxes of plants back in their car boot. Almost all major supermarkets will have plant selections (especially from March to September). Most larger stores will have sections with seeds, weedkillers, tools, and books. Prices for plants should be reasonable, but choose your products carefully. Quality control isn't always as tight with supermarkets as it is at the best garden specialists.
The rise of the internet has presented gardeners with a third option: buying online. Obviously, you can purchase things like lawnmowers, hoes, forks, and spades from big retailers like B&Q or via Amazon. But you can also order plants, which is something fewer gardeners consider.
Retailers like Crocus specialise in arranging safe deliveries, which minimise the risk of damaging plants in transit, and the Royal Horticultural Society's own store (RHS Plants) is a good place to look as well. Before you buy anything online, though, be sure to check the hotukdeals Garden and plant listings for current discount codes.
How to Choose the right Garden Furniture
Whether you want to relax on a high-rise balcony, or you're furnishing a massive verandah, finding the correct garden furniture is essential. When doing so, here are the major categories of products to think about adding to your design:
Garden Table and Chairs Sets – It's rare to find a garden without somewhere to sit with the newspaper or drink tea with friends, but the range of garden table and chair options are extensive. So which style should you choose? Whenever you buy tables and chairs, go for weather-resistant materials that aren't too heavy. Metals like aluminium can be fine, but rattan fibres are preferable due to their soft feel and durability. If you want extra comfort, models with cushions are great. Again, choose all-weather cushions that are easy to clean, or models with storage compartments for soft furnishings. And think about space. Don't buy products that will overwhelm your patio, or too many chairs for the space available. If you do want a large stash of chairs, make sure they are stackable. That way, storing them in between uses will be much easier.
Parasols and Tables – If you purchase a table and chair set, it also makes sense to add a parasol and base to the mix. These oversized umbrellas are made from lightweight canvas or other fibres, which protects the table against both sunlight and rain. The best aren't heavy, and are easy to slot into apertures in the centre of the table, before connecting to solid bases that anchor them in windy conditions. However, if you don't want a parasol sticking through the middle of the table (and not everyone does), cantilever parasols offer an alternative. They can be attacked to poles or walls, and extended across a table, and make a lot of sense for smaller spaces.
Garden Benches – A garden bench is the ideal way to relax and enjoy the flowers, wildlife, and general atmosphere of a well-tended garden. Be careful when picking one, though. Remember that garden benches are bulky and semi-permanent. They need to last for years of outdoor exposure and use, which means that durable materials are essential. Wood is popular, but will demand some form of treatment to seal it against the rain. Rattan is an option, as it is plastic, but these styles don't tend to last well beyond 2-3 years. Instead, metal or stone benches are the ideal variety. They may be slightly pricier, and bulkier to install, but they pay back the initial investment in their longevity, avoiding the need for replacement after a couple of years. And premium garden bench designs can often be found at massive reductions via garden furniture sale promotions, so snap up the right style at hotukdeals when they become available.
Hammocks and Recliners – Summer is the peak season for enjoying a garden, and it's also a great time to unfold or unroll fabric-based garden furniture. Most people will want a deckchair or two in their garden shed, or a hammock to string between trees in a shady corner. When you buy a hammock, think about softness, ease of use, and size (you don't want to tumble out in mid-snooze). If height is a worry, go for a recliner instead. These folding seats can be adjusted to the shape of a dozing body. Choose models with materials that won't chafe or start to feel clammy in hot weather. And go for recliners that can pack away conveniently when not needed.
So, what brands should you look to when buying garden furniture? There are plenty of dependable names out there, but popular labels include Montura, Ikea, John Lewis, and Hokku – whose Japanese-inspired designs have a unique look. Hadleigh make excellent garden chairs, VonHaus hammocks offer great value, while Habitat designs elegant metal benches, and Cleobury's wooden benches also sell very well.
Handy Garden Storage Options to Think About.
When it comes to storage, go for as much as you can fit in or afford, without ruining the aesthetics of your garden. Let's start with the most important storage purchase of all: the classic garden shed.
Most gardeners will find it advisable to max out on shed space, giving them room to work on repairs, potting, and racks or hooks to keep their equipment safe and sound. But it's easy to overspend on sheds, especially when plenty of shed deals are available via hotukdeals.
When browsing the listings, try to keep in mind the kind of things you'll have to store. In smaller gardens, owners might just need to store a few trowels, pots, watering cans, and bottles of weed killer or fertiliser. In those cases, there may not be any need for shed floor space, and cupboard-style designs may work best. Larger sheds will also need some preparatory work, including concrete foundations (or even planning permission), which is all worth considering.
Whatever style or size you go for, make sure it has sufficient space, shelving, racks, and hooks to store your equipment. A workbench placed underneath a window will ensure natural light, which could be preferable to running a mains connection. The best idea for actually finding the right model is to step inside and have a look. Many garden centres feature demonstration areas for sheds, with everything installed for customers to browse. Check out the interiors, then head online to look for deals.
Sheds aren't the only garden storage option, though. If you're buying for a patio or balcony, storage cupboards or chests could make a lot of sense.
When buying cupboards, the usual rules apply. Make sure your mower, strimmer, and other essentials can fit inside. And think about security. There should be thick, well-secured doors, and a lock to keep equipment safe from intruders (or wildlife). Wood is popular here, but imitation plastic can work just as well, while offering lower prices and better waterproofing. That can make a big difference if you are storing parasols, hammocks, tents, or other fabric items.

Choosing the Ideal Garden Plants For Your Home
Gardens are nothing without plants. Well, they might be useful places to park a car or play basketball, but that's not the kind of garden we're talking about here. Classic English gardens are full of colourful flowers, trees packed with fruits, berry bushes, beds crammed with herbs, and lilies resting upon the surfaces of ponds. However, these adornments won't appear automatically. So how should you buy the perfect plants for your garden?
As we mentioned earlier, there are three basic buying options: garden centres, supermarkets, or online. But there's another possibility: community seed swaps let you pick up fertile veggie varieties and even home-grown roses, and local markets tend to have flower stalls as well.
When choosing plants, think about dimensions. This is really important, and something that many people forget. Plants tend to grow outward and upward. This can pose big problems if you pack them too close together, or you're creating a garden for a small space. Dimensions are usually listed with plants when you buy them, so take a note and compare it to the spaces available.
Matching up colours is important as well. Don't just buy randomly. Take a bit of time to plan what colours will be in bloom at the same time (and remember that blooms come and go. Have plants that will flower in spring, early summer, and late summer, as well as hardier shrubs for other times of year).
If you can buy in person, do so. That way, you can check leaves for any signs of disease. Go for plants that are lush and green, and showing no signs of wilting. Also, opt for plants that are budding, not in flower. They will soon open their buds, providing more pleasure that plants that are already showing off their colours.
Finally, don't be too cavalier about choosing exotic plants. The UK isn't a tropical country, although some exotic species grow well here. Be careful about the ones you choose, and plant them in places that receive plenty of sunshine.
Aside from that, let your imagination roam. Plants tend to come in multi-packs (as bedding plants), and 2-for-1 plant offers are common, offering a good way to cover wider areas of soil rapidly. You can also buy larger single pot plants at a price premium, while the cheapest option of all is growing plants from seeds. This takes time and skill, but is almost certainly the most rewarding method.
Essential Gardening Accessories
Whether you choose to grow your carnations from seed, or as bedding plants from a local garden centre, some accessories will always come in handy:
Trowels – More than undersized spades, trowels allow gardeners to plant out their purchases quickly and ergonomically. Go for designs with soft, padded handles (to avoid blisters during long planting sessions). And ensure that the bowl of the trowel is fairly large, allowing you to create the right-sized holes with just one scoop. Key brands include: Wilko, Spear & Jackson, and Burgon & Ball.
Spades – No gardener can do without a dependable spade. For larger digging purposes, shovel style designs make sense, with their sharpened blade and foot-steps to apply downward pressure. But for more precise gardening, you'll want a T-handled spade. Remember that spades come in various sizes (so don't be stuck with one that makes you stretch). Weights vary too. Generally, fibreglass models will be lighter, but a touch flimsier. Key brands include: Wilkinson Sword, Spear & Jackson, Kent and Stowe.
Forks – Aerating your soil can make all the difference, and nothing breaks up clods of earth like a good garden fork. For most people, lighter versions will be preferable, especially if you are dealing with a medium-sized garden (allotment holders may appreciate heavy-duty wood and steel models). If you intend to grow potatoes, a special potato fork could be useful, as it allows you to raise potatoes quickly and easily without the risk of damage. Key brands include: Fiskars, Rolson Ash, Kent & Stowe.
Garden Lights – Gardens aren't just there to be enjoyed during the daytime. They are also places to socialise in the evening, when natural light isn't available. In those situations, garden solar lights really come into their own. These clever accessories come with spears at one end, solar collectors at the other, and powerful lamps which are powered by the sun. Options range from tiny tea lights that can be hung in trees, to security lights which clamp onto walls. Key brands include: Mpow, Atlas, and Bawoo.
Plant Pots and Beds – Some gardens are left wild, and plants can spread freely. But most of the time, this isn't feasible, and we need plant pots or other containers to separate plants and keep the garden manageable. Cheap containers can often be picked up via multi-buy plant pot sale promotions. However, be a little careful here. Choose ceramic containers with proper ventilation, and make sure your containers are large enough to accommodate spreading plants. Hanging baskets and pots are often a great addition to smaller gardens, while raised beds can be ideal purchases for vegetable growers. Eco-friendly gardeners also like to convert large sacks into plant containers, and these work very well for deeper rooted plants or root vegetables like potatoes. Dependable brands include: Scheurich, Crocus, Waitrose, Wyevale.
How and When to Find the Best Garden Deals
Allow your garden to show its true colours, by picking up the accessories, plants, and furniture you need. Gathering together everything may seem like a costly undertaking, and it can be expensive to add mowers, spades, plant pots, bedding plants, forks, trowels, and add-ons like sheds, recliners and cupboards. But remember: saving money is always a possibility. If you shop smart, you can smarten up your garden for much less.
Plan out your purchases first, pruning away any unnecessary additions, and drawing up a list of must-have items. Then, dive into the hotukdeals garden listings. Out listings include specific pages for key gardening purchases, such as furniture, plants, and tools. So checking out those pages could be the first port of call.
Alternatively, you can browse the general garden listings, where you'll find the latest offers from merchants like Wyevale, John Lewis, Amazon, Ikea, Tesco, Waitrose, and Aldi. If it's used outdoors, and it's reduced in price, our listings will provide the information about how to save.
Garden sales tend to be seasonal, with off-season bargains for unsold tools and accessories, and planting season promotions for specific blooms or seed varieties. Cheap garden furniture like benches or big-ticket appliances can be picked up at Black Friday, while the New Year sales are a good bet for gardening gloves, spades, or pots.
Whenever you shop, you'll find ways to save on garden essentials at hotukdeals. So start imagining your next steps, visualise a plan, and turn your back garden into something to be proud of, without spending a fortune.

Really struggle with the string on these things, just gets tangled up and I rage quit them.
Thanks I was looking for one and went with your suggestion. Little cheaper and looks like good product from the specs. Cheers
There was a £35 550w one at Homebase (Powerbase one) with all the above plus a wheel to edge lawns easier. Took a gamble and was pleasantly surprised how good it is. Head adjusts too as well as the handle so no end of comfy positions for folks of all sizes - hope this info helps! Same as the Qualcast GT3011 in appearance. Wear goggles though FFS as if the line breaks on anything hard when edging sideways on it doesn't half fly off at speed....spare spool with it too although I bought some Stihl 2.4mm square line for 5-6 notes off Ebay for 20m.

correct - it will work fine for such a basic lawn mower engine.
that's a lot of lawn mower oil for domestic use - 600ml per year so you will using this for 8 years
A strange oil to my eyes... Colour of 4.0 suggests its mainly old fashioned, solvent extracted, heavy mineral base oil. There's no VII polymer in it of course. Total Base Number (TBN) is quoted as 11.0 so it contains a lot of metallic detergent (why so high?). No mention of ZDDP but I assume it contains some. Other components?? Probably not given its low price. Does this stuff genuinely meet API SJ? I strongly doubt it but there's no way of telling. I'm sure it's okay in a lawnmower but I might stick to a cheap, properly formulated Mannol 5W30 PCMO for peace of mind.
I have always used my car oil, in this case Castrol GTX 10w /40 in my lawn mowers and never had a problem.

As far as I can see Haines McGregor we’re a brand agency engaged to develop the Hozelock group. Doesn’t look like a Hozelock and the pipe looks like a cheap pipe I bought from B&Q once.
Yes discontinued, just providing a comparison for this model though obviously prices have gone up.
Can't find the Aldi one available anywhere! Looks like it's been discontinued as it states "no longer available" as opposed to "out of stock" :(
Looks similar but not as good to the Aldi one I got last year. Paid £34.99 for mine and still working well. Has a 3 year guarantee as well (y)
Is McGregor part of the Hozelock brand? Doesn’t look like a Hozelock reel.

Here are some pics the foreman is about 1)3 bigger but doesn't get hot enough for my liking Might be faulty
About the same as an average fan oven for comparison.
Wow that's a lot thanks for that
I'll be swapping them out of the shed later. So I'll take a side by side picture for you
Running costs approximately between 50p - 60p per hour

FYI For any old 2 stroke Vespa owners out there, this is used as gearbox oil, Good price. I normally get this for my old 2 smokers tho'
I think the main selling point for me is that my lawnmower takes 600ml, so I don't have to measure, and I don't have 400ml of leftover unsealed oil absorbing water in my shed for a year.
Been using10-40 oil in my honda mowers for the last 10 years and they're still going strong. Cant see the point with sae30 when multi grade (its cheaper also) works just as well.
This is engine oil for lubrication, not fuel
This £6.50 litre, 5litres of the Molyslip £2.36 litre (I think)

If I had my way that would be my method with all this Ooni stuff too ... but I didn't have my way.
The oven temp in the weber gets up to 250 c but the pizza stone itself hotter about 350c as coals directly underneath it. This is the main difference from just putting it in your oven. The base of the pizza goes very crispy and charred but the top just goes brown and does not puff up much like on the hotter pizza ovens. Taste wise its very good and its a cheap starter into pizza making.
Or get 559 Iceland pizza’s and do them In the oven 🍕
Do you manage to get charing on the top when using weber kettle. Never tried it tbh as i though it would be difficult to get the stone to 400c.
If you dont mind waiting 10mins you can do 16 inch pizzas on a weber charcoal grill with a £30 pizza stone. No need to turn them either although ooni pizzas are a little better and much much quicker for larger families. We just share each one every 10 mins. Heat as a decent reduction anyhow.

HOMCOM stuff is awful. Plus at least with Ikea you can get hold of spare parts. But I would agree the cost of delivery is ridiculous, especially if you don't need to buy much.
Customer service is horrendous, have you ever tried taking anything back, good luck
Looks like I'm bringing the missus and her card with me!
Nope , its £10 total discount given with a spend of £100 or more , going through twice wont work unless you have another Ikea family card registered to someone else that you can perhaps use ;)
I have no experience with their higher end stuff, it might be fine, but their budget stuff is terrible, while budget stuff from Homcom or Argos had no issues at all for me.

I had Eufy, but switched to Ring. Faster response, less glitchy, better detection, clearer picture. The only thing Eufy did better was the brightness of the lights imo. Now I've got Ring cams on all 4 sides of the house, plus the doorbell, plus 4 cams inside. The only thing I wish the would improve on is the link to Echo Shows as it just does not work.
I got this but upgraded to RING floodlight pro for front of house . Way better . Better detection , better app, less false alerts .
Yes
I commented on another post about the 4GB memory not being enough the motion/human detection is that good i do not get false recordings i would recommend it
:/ So it’s not good ? I am in need for good security cameras front and back without subscription please 🙏 at least 2 within budget please.

Amazon currently have the Core125 £84.99 If you need a snow foam lance for the car Euro Car parts recently had a great deal on the Nilfisk AutoBrite lance with an included bottle of snow foam. It really depends what you're using it for, I have the Core 125 and it does me; I've use it on everything from my car to the wood tables and chairs in the garden; great for the patio too.
Also how would this compare to the C110 advertised from cleanstore?
Is this also from Costco?
Buy the core 125 and get better 3rd party accessories with the money you save.
Starts 30th

"Bricks not included" So it's essentially a very expensive set of stamped metal grilles.


Try again! Good price. I paid £150 a couple of weeks back without the bottle opener. Argos sell similar (with bottle opener) for £170. RRP is bol....err rather rubbish!
Portable? Really.. bbq has wheels at best (lol)

I can recommend the trimmer as well, quite powerful on second gear!
I don’t have a flower bed, just grass. But if gets rid of weeds up against the house wall/trees no problem. Also spool does not disappear like it did on my corded one. Spent too much time rethreading the spool. From above, if you get 2 batteries then it sounds like a deal. I just got 1
What's it like for edging using the wheel? I have a flower bed, wondering if the grass would go all over the place?
And a free battery by the look of things

Have similar ones, although they're no longer for sale https://www.amazon.co.uk/wolfwill-Resistant-Fireplace-Barbecue-Temperature/dp/B01IQN5G1U They're great, much better than using a tea towel or normal oven mits Not sure how this is a deal though considering you can get pairs for less than a tenner and they're the same things
You can't juggle burny-hot stuff as well with a single glove.
£20 for one glove? Seems overpriced when you can pick up a pair of welding gauntlets for £5.
I've had the Asda ones a few years now good for placing logs in the firepit never had a issue with them you could say I've never got my fingers burnt 😁
Probably made in the same factory :D
Pity no windows, will need additional lighting.
In the summer it will be too hot and in the winter too cold.
Is it easy to fix and possibly may he use it as home office sometimes/ house storage items?
