Gift Ideas from Hammacher Schlemmer

A product was given for review for my honest opinion. No other compensation was given.

Want to know a great website for finding the best gifts for EVERYONE on your holiday list???

Then let me definitely recommend you to the Hammacher Schlemmer website where I could literally sit all day and look through their amazing selection and say time after time "I want that!", "That is SOOO COOL!", "I would LOVE that!".

But this year I narrowed it down to TWO of my favorite gift ideas (and let me tell you...it was VERY hard to do!). Check them out below: 

The Best Leaf Shredder

This easy-to-use, emission-free device shredded leaves quickly and neatly, earning it the Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute. During testing, it chewed through 50 gallons of leaves in only 2 1/2 minutes—less than 1/10 the time required by inferior units—and unlike lesser models it did not choke on the occasional twig or let any leaf pass through unshredded.

With a cutting system similar to an oversized weed trimmer, The Best Leaf Shredder’s powerful 13-amp motor and cutting line turned 4 1/2 bags of bulky foliage into a single compact bag of rich mulch—other devices could only reduce leaf volume by half. Elastic straps secure a plastic or paper bag under the polypropylene hopper, creating a tight seal that won’t allow debris to escape.

The Best Leaf Shredder also has telescoping legs that adjust from 16 1/2"-29 1/2" to position the device over a trash can or compost bin. The bladeless device has five settings to devour everything from wet grass to pine needles, and a funnel cover enables tidy and efficient reloading. Comes with 20 replacement cutting lines. Plugs into AC with 16" cord. 49" H x 21 1/4" W x 21 1/4" D. (13 1/2 lbs.)

The Instant Pickleball Court Set

This is the pickleball kit that sets up in minutes for fast-paced impromptu fun for two picklers. Only available from Hammacher Schlemmer, its 12' W x 26" H net sets up on any hard surface, such as a driveway, tennis, or badminton courts. Invented in 1965 on the U.S. Pacific coast, the game combines the volleys of tennis with oversized table tennis paddles, a badminton-size court, and a perforated plastic ball.

Sized between a table tennis paddle and a tennis racquet, the two included wooden paddles (the original 1960s paddles were also wooden) make for easy, exuberant contests. The two included balls travel at one-third the speed of a tennis ball, making the game easy to learn and fun to play for all experience levels. Ages 8 and up. Kit fits inside carrying case: 3' L x 10" Diam. (1 3/4 lbs.)
