It appears to be well made and we wanted it to cut a 40 metre hawthorn hedge, without the problems of a petrol engined cutter. It does the job easily and much more quietly than one with a petrol engine. The battery is very small despite its power and is easy to put on/take off for re-charging and storage. The charger is also compact. The head can be moved to alter the cut angles by depressing the large orange buton at the cutting head end, with plenty of adjustments. On the downside, as has been commented by others, it is "head end heavy", as unlike a petrol engined model, there is no weight at the back end to counterbalance it. Annoyingly, the shoulder strap can't easily be moved to the front end of the main shaft for a better balance, although evenyually we managed to do so, which helped. The harness rig and placing need to be better thought out. I am also finding it difficult to buy a spare battery (as I always like to have one charged up in reserve). This may be a local supply issue due to the Covid 19 crisis. If you are tackling much more than 30-40metres of hedge, my advice woud be to pay the small amount extra and buy this cutter supplied with 2 batteries. In conclusion, a good machine at a fraction of the cost of the market leader. Easy to use and although the sling could be better, it does the job effectively. Good value. Read full review

I think if you are simply wanting to reach high places they are great but you will need normal ones as well as trying to use them to cut normal sized hedges is ridiculous I had to stand 3 meters away to cut the tops of a normal height hedge. A poor investment for me , I would farther use a ladder and feel that I have control of the trimmer. Plus although great not to have the wire it’s a lot less powerful

Straightforward to put together, just follow the well written instructions. Not too heavy to use. Trimmed a large hedge. It cuts well and cleanly. The Batteries charge within the hour. They didn't last quite as long as I was expecting, but I can make allowances for that. Easy to clean and dismantle.

At an extremely competitive price for the hedge cutter AND 2 batteries, I did wonder how it would perform. Firstly, the construction was robust and good for its task. The battery lasted for a long time 15-20 minutes of continuous hard running. I did think the blades might be only good for cutting thin material, but it handles 10mm woody material easily. The batteries charge quickly and appear to maintain their performance after charging. The downside for this unit didn't worry me but might be an issue for others..... The cutting end is heavier than a petrol version because the motor is situated at the cutting end and not the handle end. The harness attachment point is too close to the handle end and would need to be dismantled to position it further out, on the other side of the rubber grip. A quick fix would be to bind some cord or webbing on this position and use that as an attachment point. Otherwise an excellent buy and would buy again. At this price it would pay for itself after only a year.Read full review

Their is no getting away from the fact that any hedge trimmer of this type will feel heavy after some use, no matter which one you buy. This is easy to assemble, seems well built,( time will tell), isn't noisy and cuts well. Overall very pleased with this.
