Summer garden electricals: I made my husband try Gtech’s £999 garden gadgets – here’s what we really thought

It’s going to be a hot weekend which means only one thing - it’s time to cut the grass and trim back the hedges.

We recently tried the Gtech Cordless Lawnmower CLM50 £599.99 and the Gtech Long Reach Hedge Trimmer HT50 £249.99 and Grass Edge Trimmer GT50 £149.99 the (I say we but really my husband did all the hard work). But with the expensive price tag are they really worth the splurge? After putting it to the test here’s what we really thought of the garden electricals.

Gtech Cordless Lawnmower CLM50

The Gtech Cordless Lawnmower CLM50 £599.99 has a lightweight build that makes it really easy to push across the lawn with minimal effort. What genuinely surprised us was just how powerful it is for a cordless mower — the battery packs a punch, and we managed to cut the entire lawn on a single charge.

The adjustable height settings make it simple to get the perfect grass length, and it handles tall grass and weeds without any fuss, leaving behind a neat, professional finish. The cutting width is generous too, so the job gets done faster.

Storage is a breeze thanks to the fold-down handle, and the large grass collection bag means fewer trips to empty clippings. It’s a solid all-rounder for anyone after convenience and performance in a cordless lawnmower.

Gtech Long Reach Hedge Trimmer HT50

The Gtech Long Reach Hedge Trimmer HT50 £249.99 has a long reach and the extendable pole which allows us to trim back hard to reach hedges without having to use ladders. The handle extends to over 2 meters, making it ideal for those really hard to reach tree branches.

The trimmer's dual-action blades provide great cutting power, easily slicing through both thick branches to give an even finish. The 180-degree rotating head is really useful when you are cutting branches in different directions and it also has a really long battery life.

Grass Edge Trimmer GT50

The Grass Edge Trimmer GT50 £149.99 is a fantastic tool for keeping your lawn edges crisp and tidy. It's lightweight, easy to handle, and powerful enough to tackle even tougher grass and weeds. The adjustable handle and ergonomic design make it comfortable to use for extended periods, while the battery life is impressive for a cordless model. It’s a great addition to my husbands tool kit and doesn’t take up too much room in the garage.

All items are available to buy from the Gtech website with free next day delivery and a two year warranty.

My husband is very pleased with the Gtech Cordless Lawnmower CLM50 and the Gtech Long Reach Hedge Trimmer HT50 - let’s face it he will be using it more than me. Although he was at first a bit concerned about their cordless functionality. He now thinks they are much better than other lawnmowers and hedge trimmers available and definitely worth buying.
