Everyone deserves to be pampered at Christmas and what better way to indulge your family or friends than to ensure they have more free time indoors in the cold winter months.
So why not make someones life easier this winter when the snow starts to fall by buying them one of our trio of top, time-saving gifts that will take all the effort out of clearing paths and driveways of the white stuff and leave your loved ones a little more time for wassailing and warming by the fire.
First on the Christmas list is the Stiga Snow Electric 31. No one wants to spend all their time shovelling snow, but those paths and drives need clearing when it falls, so this neat and compact snow blower is spot on for the smaller household.
Light enough to hang up with the winter woollies, but with a powerful 1100W motor, this hard-working little helper will clear snow easily, throwing it up to 5 metres away, saving muscles from strain to take the ‘ow’ out of snow clearing.
It has a working width of 32 centimetres and is designed for hard surfaces like paths, patios and drives. It slides along on snowshoes, not wheels, skating along the path so it can clear ‘back-to-black’ – right down to the ground.
Comfortable to use, with a backache easing telescopic shaft for working at the optimum height, an adjustable handgrip and an effortless electric switch start, this is the perfect gift to lift their spirits while it lifts the snow.
It comes with free, next working day delivery at a stocking filler price of £89.00.
If the drive is a little larger, the path a little wider and the snow a little deeper, then the highly manoeuvrable and rugged Alpina Single-Stage Electric Snow Blower is ideal.
Ready to make Frosty and his friends quake in their boots, this model has a sturdy rubber-bladed auger to churn up the snow, flinging it up the snow chute and far away, saving hours of backbreaking work.
The clearing width is 45 centimetres, ideal for drives and decking and it’s so easy to use; just plug it in, push the start and off you go.
A hardwearing electric motor delivers peace-of-mind, and the snow chute can be rotated by 180° with the handy handlebar-mounted lever to direct the snow stream wherever the user wishes.
A space-saving folding handlebar allows easy storage and this great gift comes with a 10-metre mains cable.
It includes free, next working day delivery, a one-year warranty and comes with a storming price cut of £30 taking it right down to £169.
Last on our Christmas list, but by no means least, the larger, more powerful McCulloch SB121 Single-Stage Petrol Snow Blower is the perfect cable-free snow clearing solution when the winter wonderland has got a bit out of hand.
Designed for homeowners, perfect for your relatives out in the country where things can be a little wilder, this sleek, smart, black and yellow, single-stage blower will clear larger paths, yards and driveways effectively with its 54-centimetre working width.
The hardened rubber auger breaks up snow right down to the surface, throwing it at speed well out of the way and saving hours of hard labour.
An ultra-reliable, petrol engine, designed specially for cold weather, makes this model the gift that keeps going, even in freezing conditions.
The overhead valve technology provides economic, cleaner power and has an easy-to-use recoil start, which sports an oversized handle so it can be operated even when wearing thick gloves or mittens.
A handy-sized fuel tank of 5.1 litres means less time is spent out in the cold refuelling, and the bail-arm control is easy to use gloved or not.
The handles fold down so the blower can be tucked away snugly, letting the user get back in the warm on the double.
This excellent Christmas gift idea comes with free, next working day delivery and not one, but two, price cuts from the RRP of £499, down to £399 and now our special seasonal offer price of £349 – our gift to you.
So now we’ve got those time-saving present ideas all wrapped up, you can go and mull that wine or get the sprouts on early. Don’t forget to keep an eye on the rest of our savvy seasonal bargains as we head towards the 25th.
