The trimmer is similar to a Bosch buy, which has a slightly higher price.
Bosch's is currently available for £100.
This buy is described as "flexible and comfortable" with a telescopic height adjustment.
However, this item has a lower wattage than the Lidl gadget, meaning it may not be as ideal for larger gardens.
The tilting head guarantees precise trimming under benches and hard-to-reach spots, and helps to protect your flowerbeds.
Unlike the Lidl buy, this gadget is fully cordless, making it easier to manage.
According to manufacturers, the battery life on this buy has the capacity to trim the edges of up to six tennis courts.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
