MyGreenShed started with a simple frustration: finding reliable information about garden tools is harder than it should be. Manufacturer websites are full of marketing speak. Retailer reviews are hit-and-miss. And most “best of” articles are written by people who’ve never held a hedge trimmer.
We wanted something better — a site where gardeners could find honest, practical advice about the tools they’re considering. Not hype, not sponsored content, just straightforward recommendations based on real research.
That’s what we’ve built. Every review on MyGreenShed is written with UK gardeners in mind. We focus on products you can actually buy here, at prices that make sense for normal people, from retailers you can trust.
We’re not a big media company or a faceless content farm. We’re a small team of garden enthusiasts who care about getting this right. We know that a lawnmower is a significant purchase for most households, and we take that responsibility seriously.
Whether you’re looking for your first cordless mower or upgrading your entire tool collection, we’re here to help you spend your money wisely.
We don’t accept payment for reviews, and we don’t let manufacturers influence our recommendations. Every product is assessed on its merits — performance, reliability, value, and real-world usability. If something isn’t worth buying, we’ll say so. Our reputation depends on being honest, even when that’s uncomfortable.
We can’t personally test every product we review, but we do thorough research. We analyse specifications, study user reviews across multiple retailers, consult expert sources, and draw on our own gardening experience. Where we have hands-on experience, we say so. Where we don’t, we’re transparent about our methodology.
All our reviews focus on the UK market. We cover products available from UK retailers at UK prices. We understand British gardens — the climate, the soil, the typical lawn sizes, and the specific challenges of gardening in this country. No American-centric content that doesn’t apply here.
We know that most people want clear answers, not endless technical details. Our reviews cut to the chase: what’s good, what’s not, and whether you should buy it. We include the specs that matter and skip the padding. Your time is valuable, and we respect that.
