I’m a shopping writer and here are the best gardening gifts for men this Father’s Day

Your dad will never have to use the kitchen ever again. There are seven functions under one lid: Grill, Smoke, Air Fry, Roast, Bake, Reheat and Dehydrate and the outdoor cooking possibilities are endless, making it a must-have item for summer cook-outs. Alfresco, with an upgrade!

A customer commented that though the Woodfire looks "a little intimidating", once you get the hang of it, you can be surprised by how simple and effective it is to use. They add: "It's almost too easy to believe" - after having trialled a leg of lamb for Easter. Once they tucked into the softest (and flavoursome) lamb ever, they were sold. They love the air fryer feature and veggies char really well.

The opportunities may be endless, but are there any negatives? Some customers say this might and versatile outdoor cookware is a little heavy, but we're sure your dad is up for the job.
