Advantages: Well made

Disadvantages: Pink, pink, pink, pink

Whilst looking through dooyoo's 'newest products' section, I came across 'The Pink Gardening Set', which can be purchased for £24.99 from Amazon. Considering it's an item which I recently bought for my sister, I thought I would swallow my pride and give it a review. Before I start however, I'd like to say that in no way do I condone owning a pink gardening set, and even though I can tell that you don't believe me when I say I bought it for someone else, I did... pink's not really my colour, and I don't have a garden - so there!

The set contains a small steel gardening fork, some pruning shears, a weird curvy thing (which I'm informed is called a 'dibber'), heavy-duty suede gloves AND lightweight cotton gloves, a kneeling matt, plant labels, gardening twine, and handcream.

Everything comes contained in a bright pink plastic 'trug' which is sturdy, and features a handle which makes the transportation of your newly acquired girlie tools a doddle.

The tools themselves are surprisingly well made, forged in the fires of Mount Doom with steel that is reassuringly solid. The pink rubbery handles ensure that extra bit of comfort, and even if you do overwork your poor hands, the included moisturizing cream will put things right.

As well as the tools, the plant labels and string are handy inclusions - although it is a shame that the string is white, rather than pink to match the rest of the set.

Both the heavy-duty and lightweight gloves are... ahem! *apparently* comfortable, and those with a taste for the flamboyant will appreciate the pattern and colour.

All in all, for just over the £20 mark, The Pink Gardening Kit makes for a cool novelty gift which is practical as well as stylish. The build quality of the tools, in combination with the striking colour makes this a cool set - just don't leave it on the lawn, cos it will frighten the birds away :)
