Our Spare Parts Finder
When you invest in high-quality garden tools and machinery, you can expect it to last. So, at some point in the future, should a particular part need replacing, it often makes financial sense to purchase that replacement part for your tried and tested machine, rather than go to the expense of buying a completely new one.
This is the beauty of our Garden Machinery Spare Parts Finder, which is a one-stop shop for ALL of your spare parts requirements.
Whether you need a replacement part for your lawnmower, hedge trimmer or chainsaw, you’re sure to find it here. Our extensive range includes everything from blades and chains to spark plugs and fuel filters, all brought to you by the world’s leading manufacturers of garden tools and machinery, so you know they’re built to last.
You can find the spare part you need by entering the product’s SKU or name into the search bar. And if you’re unsure about these things, simply contact our UK-based Garden Machinery Experts, who will be delighted to help you find the part that you need, so you can get your prized tool or machine back up and running as soon as is practicably possible.
Sort by Price
When you click on any of our product category pages, you are given the opportunity to filter your search to help find what you need quicker. The filters available depend on the products in question but typical examples include brand, power source and operational measurements.
At the top of these category pages there is also a drop-down menu giving you the opportunity to sort the available products into a specific order by focussing on their popularity, rating, name or PRICE. An arrow next to this drop-down menu then allows you to apply these variables in either ascending or descending order.
Therefore, this facility is a huge help if you want to search for the cheapest models, available at that time, of a specific type of garden tool or machine.
For example, when sorting by price on our Scarifiers category page, you will see this highly rated AL-KO model near the top of the list. As one of our cheapest but best-rated scarifiers, it’s a genuine bargain…
