Not everything in the Lidl garden aisle is own-brand this is a proper Fiskars secateur, the Finnish brand gardeners actually ask for by name, at about half its usual price.
Fiskars fans is this the model youd recommend, and how does the PowerLever mechanism compare to a Felco for hand fatigue If youve been putting off replacing tired, gummed-up secateurs, is £7.99 the nudge Drop your thoughts below.
For £7.99 you get Fiskars bypass secateurs (the clean-cut type for live green growth, as opposed to anvil blades for deadwood), suitable for right- and left-handed use, with the brands PowerLever mechanism that multiplies your cutting force so branches up to 20mm go through with noticeably less effort on the hand and wrist. Precision-ground, non-stick-coated blade for clean cuts that dont crush the stem.
I checked what Fiskars PowerLever secateurs go for elsewhere:
Retailer / ProductPriceLidl Fiskars Bypass Secateurs (PowerLever, 20mm)£7.99
B&Q Fiskars bypass / PowerLever secateurs£15£16
Tooled-Up Fiskars PowerLever bypass secateurs£14£16
Amazon Fiskars PowerLever bypass (P751)£15£18
Same brand, same PowerLever tech, roughly half the price of what B&Q, Tooled-Up and Amazon charge. For a tool that lasts years and comes with Fiskars long manufacturer guarantee, £7.99 is a genuine steal rather than a middle-aisle punt.
Good for: pruning roses, shrubs and soft green growth, deadheading, cutting back perennials, and general autumn tidy-up jobs a clean bypass cut keeps plants healthier than a crushing blade.
Worth noting: bypass blades are for live/green stems for dry, hard deadwood youd want an anvil pruner instead. Live from Thursday 20/08, and as ever with Lidl, once theyre off the shelf theyre gone.
