Keep that Yard Clean, Tidy, and Secure
These tools were easy for me to use around my 2 kids and 3 dogs. They made maintaining a large yard a breeze and way less time consuming.
The best part about this is not having a rolled up hose to have to move or re-roll after using. I love that it stores itself and retracts itself. Making pulling it out and getting something sprayed off way less labor intense.
VEVOR 5/8"x100ft Retractable Garden Hose Reel
These are easy to put up and work perfectly to add ambiance to the yard. They even provide enough light to finish yardwork in the evenings.
SOLPEX Solar Deck Lights 16 Pack Warm White
This is on my wants list of yard tools. I have been wanting to pressure wash my house and porches. This will be my choice for the electric ability over gas and the many options for use.
2026new 5000PSI Pressure Washer w/ Touch Screen
This is the type of mower I generally use. It does the job even for a larger yard. It is lightweight and easy to push. It is easy to start as well, unlike some others.
Hyper Tough 20" 125cc Gas Powered Walk-Behind Push Lawn Mower with Briggs & Stratton Engine, Black - Walmart.com
I upgraded to this from a corded leaf blower and am very satisfied. It makes me get it out more often for the porches. I love that it comes with two batteries. That way, you can always have one charged even if you forget after using.
Electric Cordless Leaf Blower with 2 Batteries
I love to keep this on my front porch or in my trunk. The size makes it easy to store and keep out of sight. The size also makes it super convenient to get out and use to blow out those car seats and floor boards in the car.
Turbo Jet Cordless Leaf Blower - 800,000 RPM
Living in the Midwest, we definitely are preparing for mosquito season. I had to try this from seeing videos on it, and it does not disappoint. It is favorable over the flame or citronella products because of solar power.
Solar Bug Zapper Outdoor, 10W Solar Panel
I have used these as home security for about 3 years now. I love the ability to have the 24/7 recording, the ability to hear and speak thru the camera, and download the recordings. I like to face them out my window so I don't have to worry about them...
WYZE Cam v4 2.5K AI Security Camera 2 Pack
I like to keep this on the back deck. When having to sit outside and watch the kids or when the dogs are outside, it has a strong enough output to keep you cool in humid heavy heat.
iLiving 18" Wall Fan 6360 CFM 3-Speed
This makes shoveling the steps or driveway easy and a lot faster. Did not even know I needed one, but I am glad I have this.
Craftsman 10 in. 20 V Battery Snow Shovel Thrower Kit (Battery & Charger)
I like that these are 100ft rather than shorter as we have a large yard. They are waterproof and shatterproof, meaning they can swing in the wind and still work. Worthy purchase. Love the dimming option.
DAYBETTER 100ft Solar String Lights 50 Bulbs Warm White

I was researching the viral Costco hedges and found these instead. I like that they are Gardenia rather than the English Boxwood. Makes them a little different than the ones you typically see being bought.
CREATIVE SURFACES Gardenia 40 in. x 40 in. Artificial Hedge Panels with Lights (1-Pack) CSHEDGE0414
The rental I am currently in has a hot tub pad in the backyard, and this is at the top of my wishlist this year. This one seems to have easy or set up, the ability to keep the water clear, and protection during the winter months.
Coleman Miami 2-4 Person Inflatable Hot Tub
This is new at Target this season. I love the price point for a small bar table that has a shelf space and comes with two stools. I like that it seems rather small to not take up too much space but be of use.
Christopher Knight Home Toronto 3 Piece Patio Traditional Rattan Bar Set, Brown
This is on my wishlist to avoid the kids coming in and outside but not having a clunky cooler out. This will look nicer on the back deck but be super useful.
Costway 8 Gallon 3 in 1 Patio Rattan Cooler Bar Table Adjust Ice Bucket Black
I love that this storage container comes longer in size for both storage purposes and to double as a bench for the kids. It is easy to put different cushions on top. We also like that it locks just in case we do want to lock it.
90 Gallon Lockable Resin Deck Box - Black
This comes with so much for a reasonable price. The cushions included are zippered, making them easy to clean. The rattan materials make them easy to match to other pieces. I like the glass tempered top on the table as not all have that.
Costway 4PCS Patio Rattan Furniture Set Armrest Cushion Sofa Coffee Table withShelf Garden
I think these would be a nice alternative to stepping stones. The reviews say they withstand extreme weather and humidity. I think they would create a cute pathway leading to a gazebo or pool area.
Plow & Hearth 8' Outdoor Cedar Pathway
