    Very Impressive! 26 Jun 2007
    By G. Wylie TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
    Amazon Verified Purchase
    My cottage garden is totally surrounded with hedging, mostly beech. Never having used a hedge trimmer before, I was a little apprehensive as to how I would manage and what sort of cut it would give. There was, however, no need to worry. This little machine coped magnificently and produced a most impressive result. Much, much faster than by hand shears and the result just as neat. Should have got it earlier!

    Considered getting the larger trimmer, but glad I finally decided on this one. Ideal for my garden hedge. It is a little heavier than I had imagined, but is still easily managed. Mind and buy a pair of goggles with it.

    Very sharp blades 18 Feb 2009
    I have owned several hedgetrimmers, both electric and petrol. This is without doubt the best I have had by far. The main factor is the blades. They will cut through everything CLEANLY. this makes a big difference particularly on Leylandii, which my previous trimmers have done by nibbling away at the foliage until it falls off, which means a frayed and untidy cut. The Bosch cuts through it all on the first pass and leaves a very tidy finish. Motor has plenty of power and not too heavy either.
    If this one breaks I will buy another straight away.

    This is out 3rd hedge cutter. We should have got this one first. It's very easy to use, very sturdy and makes cutting the hedge a veritable pleasure.

    Bosch hedgecutter
    Brilliant! Cut through tough old conifer hedge no problem. Easy to handle and good for shaping an unruly hedge. Not too noisy so doesn't hurt your ears. Recommended.

    Does the job
    My previous Bosch hedgetrimmer lasted over 25 years and cut some tough hedges in its time. This one is more lightweight but certainly does the job on some rather less demanding... Read more

    hedge trimmer
    I previously used a friends petrol hedge trimmer . The weight was a real drawback . This trimmer is light weight , powerful , and does as good a job as the petrol machine .
