The Easy-Pour 2.6 gallon: Fiskars do it again

Since discovering the multifunctional delights of the Cuts+More scissors last month, our love for all things Fiskars has been heartily renewed.

Perhaps the only thing more impressive than the Fiskars ID team’s attention for detail, is the remarkably coherent design strategy and brand language that is carried religiously through their ever-expanding product range. Only with such clear ideals could an ancient knife manufacturer redesign the humble watering-can—and do it in such style.

The “Easy-Pour” is a seriously heavy duty watering-can—so serious you might well be reconsidering your stance on tulip-growing as we speak. Ever the champion of ergonomics, Fiskars have introduced a second, rotating handle into their new design that gives greater control, which in turn allows for greater capacity and less walking back and forth to the kitchen tap.

But the innovations to the world of watering-cans don’t stop there; the head of the can rotates too, to give 2 levels of flow—gentle shower or (I quote) “flower soaking”— and—for one last design detail—the filling-hole, rather than being stuck inconveniently under the handle, is placed neatly to the side for easy access. Clever Fiskars.

This watering-can of watering-cans is available from the Fiskars e-store for a very reasonable $19.99.
