Many people say that Spring is their favorite time of the year. It puts an end to dreary gray winter days and revives the great outdoors with warmth and sunshine.

As the days become longer and the weather improves, we find ourselves flocking to baseball games, backyard barbecues, and tending to gardens, lawns, and flowerbeds.

And whether your spring is one filled with hard work, hobbies, or hobnobbing with neighbors, we’d like to present you our list of the top 5 newest Hammacher Schlemmer spring items.

1) The Garden Sprinkler of the Future

This spinning sprinkler enhances a lawn or garden with futuristic flair. It hooks up to a standard garden hose and hydrates plants as it rotates, soaking an area up to 30’ in diameter. The sprinkler’s whimsical retrofuturism style is decorated with a stationary helix at its center and adorned with four blue glass marbles.

2) The 50 Gallon Collapsible Rain Barrel 

Unique to Hammacher Schlemmer is this lightweight and easily storable rain barrel. Made of 1,000 denier polyester fabric with PVC coating, it captures up to 50-gallons of falling rain that can then be released with its quick-connect spigot. When not in use, the unit easily collapses down to stowaway in a garage or shed.

3) The Solar Flower Shadow Lamp 

This solar-powered lantern projects a floral pattern on a table or pathway for up to eight hours of nonstop ambient light at night. It can be hung from a tree, pergola, or shepherd's hook using the built-in handle or set up on a patio table. A solar panel at the top recharges the battery and provides power to the units warm white LED.

4) The Weather Resistant Acacia Curved Bench 

Made from weather-resistant Acacia, this curved bench is perfect for positioning around patios, firepits, or potted plants. The bench's slatted seat can be accessed from either side, allowing users to sit facing inward (around a central area such as a table or firepit) or outward when situated around a tree or shrub. And thanks to its Acacia wood construction, the bench is naturally resistant to water, bacteria, and mold.

5) The Weather Resistant Acacia Adirondack Chair 

Styled after the classic Adirondack chair that has graced waterfront cabins and patios since 1903, this particular model is made of classic Acacia wood. It supports up to 220 lbs. and has a high slatted backrest, angled seat, and wide armrests. And just as with the aforementioned Weather Resistant Acacia Curved Bench, it is naturally water-, bacteria-, and mold-resistant.

Springtime may not technically be synonymous with “new”, but it provides us with an annual chance to “re-new” and refresh all aspects of our home and yard. Every year, there are dozens—if not hundreds—of new Hammacher Schlemmer solutions guaranteed to enhance your outdoor spaces. At least until winter returns…
