What do garden tools cost in Kuwait? Hoses, shears and trimmers priced

Mohammed Nazir |

A hose connector set is 0.450 KD, a 20 metre flexible hose is 7.000 KD, and a wall-mounted automatic reel holding 15 metres is 18.500 KD. On the cutting side, a straight pruning shear is 1.000 KD, a 30 inch lopping shear is 3.000 KD, and a 21 V cordless pruning shear rated for 25 to 30 mm branches is 9.750 KD.

Those four numbers are the whole shape of a Kuwait garden budget: fittings cost almost nothing, hand tools cost a few dinars, and the money is in the reel and the battery machines. Here is every item priced, read from the product records today.

Hose, fittings and reels

Start at the tap, because that is where most of these purchases go wrong. The connectors below are 1/2 inch and the adaptor in the table steps 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch, so measure the thread on your own tap before you buy a hose to fit it.

Item Size Price
Hose connector set, 3 pieces Set of 3 0.450 KD
Hose quick connectors, 3 pieces Set of 3 0.500 KD
Hose connector 1/2 inch 0.750 KD
Water tap adaptor 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch 0.750 KD
Hose connector set, 4 pieces Set of 4 2.000 KD
Flexible expanding hose 20 m 7.000 KD
Automatic hose reel, wall mounted 15 m 18.500 KD
Automatic hose reel, wall mounted 30 m 38.000 KD

The reel is worth the jump if the hose lives outside. A loose hose on a Kuwait yard in summer is the thing that cracks, kinks and ends up in the bin; a retractable reel on a wall takes it out of the sun between waterings. Fifteen metres at 18.500 KD covers most villa yards; thirty metres at 38.000 KD is for a long plot or a corner house with two sides to water.

Nozzles, sprayers and sprinklers

Item Detail Price
Adjustable nozzle garden kit 4 pieces 0.750 KD
Twist nozzle set 5 pieces 0.750 KD
Hand pump garden sprayer 2 L 1.250 KD
Adjustable nozzle, single One nozzle 1.500 KD
Garden sprinkler, round stand Static 1.500 KD
Hand pump sprayer, shoulder strap 5 L 2.500 KD
Auto gear sprinkler Gear driven 2.500 KD
Cordless electric sprayer gun 2 L or 5 L 5.450 KD or 9.950 KD

The 5 litre shoulder sprayer at 2.500 KD is the one that gets used for more than plants: it is listed for agricultural use and car washing, and it holds two and a half times the 2 litre hand sprayer that costs 1.250 KD.

Two irrigation timers

If the garden is watered at 5 am rather than at 1 pm, a timer is the item that changes the water bill and the plants at the same time.

One dinar separates them, so the question is only whether you want the schedule on the unit or on your phone.

Cutting and pruning by hand

Tool Size What it handles Price
Pruning saw 180 mm Branches too thick for a shear 0.850 KD
Pruning back saw 355 mm Straighter, stiffer cuts 0.850 KD
Straight pruning shear 8 inch Green stems and thin growth 1.000 KD
Pruning saw, wooden handle 14 inch A longer stroke on thicker wood 1.450 KD
Garden scissors 7 inch Flowers, herbs, light trimming 1.500 KD
Folding pruning saw 10 inch The one that goes in a bag or a car 1.500 KD
Bypass pruning shear 7.5 inch Live wood, and listed as a bukhoor cutter too 1.750 KD
Hedge shear 24 inch Hedges and borders, two hands 1.750 KD
Lopping shear 750 mm, 30 inch Branches above head height, long handles for leverage 3.000 KD
Hedge shear, telescopic 12 inch blade, aluminium handles that extend Reaching into the middle of a hedge 4.950 KD

Do not read that table as a size ladder, because it is not one. The 24 inch hedge shear is 1.750 KD and the 12 inch one is 4.950 KD: you are paying for extending aluminium handles on the shorter tool, not for blade length. Pick on reach and weight, not on the inch figure.

Bypass or straight? A bypass shear passes two curved blades across each other like scissors and is the one for living wood. A straight blade crushes against an anvil, which is fine on dry stems.

Battery machines, 9.750 KD to 79.950 KD

Machine Stated specification From
Cordless pruning shear 21 V, 25 to 30 mm cutting capacity, high-carbon steel blade 9.750 KD
Cordless leaf blower 21 V, two batteries supplied 17.500 KD
Cordless grass trimmer Two batteries supplied 18.000 KD
Cordless hedge trimmer Two batteries supplied 20.500 KD
Petrol lawn mower 18 inch cut, 7 HP 62.000 KD
Cordless lawn mower Battery 79.950 KD

The cordless pruning shear is the one worth a second look at 9.750 KD. Its record states a 25 to 30 mm cutting capacity, which is thicker than a hand shear will take without two hands and a lot of effort, and it is about half the price of the trimmers above it.

A chain saw is the next step up again: a 12 inch electric chain saw is 11.000 KD and a 16 inch 1800 W one is 21.500 KD, both covered in our guide to which saw you need and which blade fits it.

Rakes, a barrow, and moving what you cut

A rigid rake moves soil and gravel; a flexible lawn rake sweeps up cuttings and leaves without digging in. At 3.500 KD each the choice is about what you are moving, not about price.

Growing indoors instead

Three products answer the Kuwait summer by moving the plants inside: a self-watering smart plant pot with app and Bluetooth control at 22.000 KD, a second app-controlled version at 25.000 KD, and a three-layer self-watering rack with LED grow lights, 62 x 18 x 13 inches, at 52.000 KD.

What Kuwait does to a garden, and what to buy because of it

  • Water early, not at midday. A timer at 16.500 KD does that without anyone getting up, and it is the single item on this page that changes how a Kuwait garden looks by August.
  • The hose is the consumable. Sun and heat are what finish a hose, not use. A 20 metre flexible hose at 7.000 KD stored inside outlasts a dearer one left coiled on the gravel.
  • Dust, not leaves. A leaf blower here mostly moves dust off a yard and a porch after a shamal. The 21 V cordless one is 17.500 KD; corded blowers from 3.900 KD are in our vacuum cleaner and blower guide.
  • A villa yard is mostly hard landscaping. That favours a sprinkler on a stand at 1.500 KD and a 5 litre sprayer at 2.500 KD over a mower, and it is why the two rakes sell against each other rather than in sequence.
  • If the pressure is the problem, the tool is not. A booster or transfer pump is a different purchase, and those are in water pumps with our guide to choosing the right water pump.
