'Easy to use' leaf blower that's 'easy to assemble' has £20 off

With autumnal weather taking hold, it's often gardens that pay the price - from paths covered in leaves to damp corners gathering debris, everything needs a bit more attention to keep it looking proper. Staying on top of it feels like a constant job at this time of year, but the right kit makes things easier.

Yimbly is currently selling the Thompson & Morgan 3,500W 3-in-1 blower vac for £39.99, helping buyers make light work of garden maintenance without hitting their wallets too hard. Yimbly, is an online marketplace owned by the Express' parent company Reach Plc.

That's a £20 saving off the usual price of £59.99. This indispensable tool combines blowing, vacuuming, and mulching into a single handheld appliance, ideal for clearing paths, lawns, and patios in significantly less time.

Powered by a 3,500W motor, the Thompson & Morgan 3-in-1 blower vac delivers up to 270km/h of air speed for shifting stubborn leaves and grass cuttings, or they can be sucked up into a large 45-litre collection bag for simple clean-up.

With a built-in mulching function, the device shreds contents down at a 10:1 ratio, letting it collect the equivalent of 450 litres of dry leaves in one go. This mulch can then be composted straight from the bag or used around the garden to improve soil health, retain moisture, and suppress weeds.

The Thompson & Morgan 3-in-1 blower vac is mains-powered, so it won't create unpleasant fumes in the garden. It's easy to handle, too, thanks to a secure carrying harness, a light 3.7kg weight, and a 10-metre cord for generous reach.

A slightly cheaper alternative is the McGregor 2,800W corded leaf blower garden vacuum available from Argos for £35. It can also mulch leaves and debris, and it has six variable speed settings.

Currys sells a pricier alternative, the Flymo PowerVac 2,700W garden vacuum and leaf blower for £79.99 down from £89.99. This unit delivers strong airflow up to 310km/h and includes a 40-litre collection bag.

Many shoppers are happy with their 3-in-1 blower vac from Thompson & Morgan, with one customer leaving a review on the Yimbly website: "It arrived quickly. It was fairly easy to assemble. It was also easy to use."

Another said on the Thompson & Morgan site: "This machine is brilliant, I don't know how I would manage without it now." A third agreed: "Perfect. Does the job I required it to do. Particularly pleased with the shredding process."

A few customers noted a slight shortcoming, with one person saying: "The only downside is you can't use it when leaves etc. are wet from rain or frost, of which we have had plenty recently!"

A second advised potential buyers: "It is very useful, just need to be careful not to vacuum too many leaves at one time as it gets clogged up."

The Thompson & Morgan 3,500W 3-in-1 blower vac is available from Yimbly for £39.99.
