CleverLawn is a free resource built to help UK homeowners and garden enthusiasts find the right products for their outdoor spaces. To keep the site running and the content free, we use affiliate links — here’s exactly what that means for you.

Amazon Associates

CleverLawn is a participant in the Amazon Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme operated by Amazon EU S.à r.l. and its affiliates.

As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
  • Some links on this site are affiliate links that point to amazon.co.uk
  • If you click one of these links and make a purchase, we receive a small commission
  • This commission comes from Amazon — it does not add any extra cost to your purchase
  • The price you pay on Amazon is exactly the same whether you arrive via our link or not

Why this matters to you

We believe in full transparency. Here is what our affiliate relationships mean in practice:

🔄 What it changes

  • We earn a small fee when you buy through our links, which helps fund the site

✅ What it does not change

  • Our editorial independence — we are not paid to recommend specific products
  • Our honest opinions — if a product has drawbacks, we say so
  • The price you pay — Amazon commissions come from Amazon’s margin, not yours

How we choose products to recommend

We recommend products based on a combination of:

  • Research into specifications, features, and value for money
  • Customer review analysis on Amazon and other platforms
  • Comparison of competing products in the same category
  • Relevance to UK buyers — including availability on amazon.co.uk and suitability for UK gardens and conditions

We do not accept payment to feature or rank specific products. No brand or manufacturer can pay to appear in our buying guides or be listed as a top pick.

Commission rates

Amazon Associates commissions vary by product category. For full transparency, here are the typical rates for categories we cover:

Category Typical commission rate
Lawn & Garden ~4%
Home & Kitchen ~4%
Tools & DIY ~3%
Electronics (e.g. smart garden tech) ~1–3%

Commission rates are set by Amazon and can change at any time. Our recommendations are never influenced by which category pays a higher rate — we recommend what we genuinely believe is the best option for our readers.

Third-party links

Occasionally we may link to non-Amazon websites for reference purposes, such as manufacturer websites or independent review sources. These links are provided for information only and are not affiliate links unless stated otherwise.

Prices and availability

Amazon prices and stock levels change frequently. Any prices mentioned on this site were accurate at the time of writing but may have changed. Always check the current price on amazon.co.uk before making a purchase decision.

We never fabricate or exaggerate pricing claims. If a deal or offer is highlighted, it is based on the price at the time the post was written or last updated.
