Gardener shares ‘handy’ £16 tool that ‘makes jobs so much easier’

A green-thumbed enthusiast has revealed her indispensable gadget that she simply can’t do without now she’s used it.

As the season turns and those with a patch of green to call their own ponder over how to cultivate a blooming vista by , one avid gardener has taken to social media to share her top tip for an easier life among the flowerbeds.

Sally, known on as @sallygrace_gardening, divulged that for anyone deeply involved in gardening, there’s one particular tool that proves “so handy”.

And what might this be?

She enthused about her beloved “two-in-one garden kneeler and bench”.

Proclaiming it “hands down” one of the most effective tools in her arsenal, Sally expressed astonishment at not having discovered it earlier.

She detailed that her purchase included “gardening gloves with claws,” which she finds “pretty handy if you’re digging around in soil”, as they simplify the task far beyond mere finger-digging.

Sally shared: “I’ve got another one that I’m going to pass to my dad because it’s so handy. I love the way that you can flip it over and use it as a bench as well, and it also comes with a little bag to pop your tools in”.

She raved about its knee-saving design and how “it’s easy to get down and back up again”, avoiding the discomfort of bending or kneeling directly on the ground – deterrents that could dissuade many from gardening at all.

Sally also shared that some had “taken the mick” out of her for using the tool, but she said: “I don’t think it matters how old you are. If you do a lot of gardening like me, this is honestly so useful”. She also showed that it “folds away easily,” so it can be stored without fuss.

What’s more, the product will set you back just , so is well worth a try.

In the comments, people praised her for showing them the product. One wrote: “It looks great. I’m going to get one for my Dad as he’s gardening daily all year round. Thanks for sharing. The kneeling mat looks nice and cushioned”.

Another penned: “Definitely good if you suffer from severe back pain especially. Yes, it’s been around, but still a lot of people don’t know about them. Anything that makes gardening easier is a plus for sure”.
