The electric weed killer has hit the middle aisle, just in time for the bank holiday season.
Perfect for penny pinchers, the Aldi dupe costs just £14.99, £123 cheaper the Bosch original which will set you back £127.99.
The bonkers “corded bruschetter,” flips between an astonishing four functions.
Not only can it wipe away those pesky weeds with a hot air gun so powerful that it can also remove paint, but it also has a handy barbecue lighter and can varnish without the need for toxic chemicals.
The Aldi version is actually stronger than its more expensive competitor with a 2000 watt blast compared to Bosch’s meagre 950 watt capability.
Unlike the mowtown massacre of traditional chemical weed killers, you’ll finally win the war of the weeds with “no brown spots in your lawn” or horticultural “collateral damage.”
The Aldi offering even comes with five spare blades for when you inevitably drop one through a grate.
A stainless steel heating pin is perfect for keyhole surgery on those floral freeloaders lurking just under the soil.
Flame weeding is very effective, especially when weeds are caught early.
The optimal time for thermal weed control is in early spring when weeds are still small and don’t have any reserves stored in their root system.

The heat boils water in the plant’s cells, causing them to burst.
It essentially destroys the cell structure in the leaves, so the plant can’t photosynthesise and dies.
If the stem is burnt, water and nutrients can’t move from the roots to the top of the plant, killing it.
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.
- Idealo 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.
- CamelCamelCamel 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.
