You may be faced with a lawn resembling a desert or still with a lovely green finish depending on where you live in Britain.
But you will certainly find wilder areas still growing well wherever you are in the country.
This is a good time to tackle those bits of the garden. Indeed some gardens have really large areas which grow wild but nevertheless need cutting back to stop them becoming impenetrable.
So if you’re looking for a machine to help with this task have a look at this one on special offer, the Einhell GE-BC 33 AS Low-Vibration Brushcutter.
Engineered in Germany it is a very high-performing machine which cuts down thick gorse and brambles as well as tall weeds.
And as it is designed to have low vibration levels, it is comfortable to use over a long period.
It is built with a double bearing crankshaft and has a triple rubber shock mount. And the engine is a 36.2cc model-giving plenty of torque. Automatic choke and primer make it easy to start.
The cowhorn handlebars bake it easy to tackle large areas especially when teemed with a padded shoulder harness.
It is supplied with a three-tooth blade, and a strimming head for keeping lawn hedges neat.
The aluminium split-shaft makes it easy to transport in the back of a car or van.
This is a new model for this season, exclusive to MowDirect and is a bargain at just £169.95, £180 off the recommended retail price.
Next working day delivery is free and there is a two-year warranty.
The Einhell GE-BC 43 AS Low-Vibration Brushcutter is a similar machine but with an even more powerful 42.7cc engine and costs £199.95.
