| Features of the AHS 48 LI Cordless Hedgecutter Cordless freedom Being cordless means there’s no hassle of untangling the cable before, during or after use, but most importantly there’s no chance of cutting the cable whilst in use. The hedgecutter can be used anywhere--no need for a power source--and unlike petrol hedgecutters, it’s free of smell and excessive noise. | |
| Anti-blocking If a thick branch can’t be cut through immediately, the AHS 48 LI’s innovative micro-electronics detect this and instantly adjust the running direction of the blades. It uses a reciprocating motion to continue cutting powerfully through wood where other tools would stall. | |
![]() | Powerful battery and blades The AHS 48 LI is powered by an 18V/1.3Ah Lithium-ion battery that gives 50 minutes running time when fully charged. The battery is interchangeable with other 18V Lithium-ion-powered Bosch garden and power tools. Being laser cut and diamond ground, the blades last longer, and the 15mm tooth spacing makes it easy to tackle hedges in medium-sized gardens. |
| Comfortable use and vibration-free trimming The AHS 48 LI has been ergonomically designed for your comfort. It is easy--and safer--to operate with a two trigger start system, and since it weighs only 2.2kg, it’s easy to handle. It has quiet and vibration-free running, which means less strain on your ears and your arms. The hedgecutter comes with a protective blade cover so it can be stored safely when not in use. |

Anti blocking really works,
By Maijay4 (Surrey UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bosch AHS 48 cm Lithium Ion Cordless Hedgecutter (DIY & Tools)
NOTE: review refers to the AHS 52CM Li version
I have 2 mature privets and 1 mature hawthorn all around 6ft high. It cut through the privet with ease and did pretty well with the hawthorn bar a few times when the anti stall kicked in. Now usually when the hawthorn causes a jam I'm tugging away trying to get the hedge cutter unjammed but no such issue this time which really helped cut the completion time down. This product is also very light being approximately half the weight of my old electric and with no cables to worry about I was able to cut the hedge tops using it upside down over my head rather than getting the steps out - job done in no time. One small gripe is you have to remove the battery to charge (fiddly) and there's no wall mount facility for either the charger or hedge cutter.

Mixed Feelings... Bosch AHS 48cm Lithium Ion Cordless Hedgecutter,
By
This review is from: Bosch AHS 48 cm Lithium Ion Cordless Hedgecutter (DIY & Tools)
I have (for my sins), three types of hedges on my property - laurel, conifer and privet. I bought the hedgecutter because of the splendid reviews found on Amazon. My previous Black & Decker (power) hedgecutter had evenually given up the ghost after five years of sterling service. For your information therefore:
1) the battery lasts about an hour before it needs recharging 2) the hedgecutter cuts through privet with ease 3) it struggles a bit with the conifer hedging (taking into account that I would expect it to do so with larger branches) 4) it does not want to know the laurel hedge. Although it makes a valiant attempt to cut the sides, it just "bounces off the top of the hedge" as it does not have the weight or the "punch" to make a clean cut. After several attempts I eventually gave up and used an old Black & Decker power hedgecutter that once belonged to my dad and finished the job in a mere fraction of the time it would have taken with the Bosch (recharginbg times not included). I dread to think of the wear and tear. Although I would recommend this hedgecutter for certain types of hedges, I am now find myself in the position where I will have to buy a more powerfull machine.

Lightweight and powerful,
By rhosllan (North Wales) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bosch AHS 48 cm Lithium Ion Cordless Hedgecutter (DIY & Tools)
This item is far better than I expected of a cordless hedgetrimmer. It is light and quite powerful, and I have used it frequently as it is so much easier to use than getting out cables for my electric one. There are a couple of minor drawbacks.
1. I find the battery difficult to remove, because it involves pressing the release catch in the opposite direction to the battery removal direction. 2. Operation of the trimmer involves squeezing two levers/catches together which, although not difficult, does seem to be at an awkward angle, and my hand and arm muscles ache after a relatively short time. This operation seems common to most hedge trimmers, but my elecric 'Little Wonder' trimmer is much easier as it requires only fingertip pressure on a button, once started. I suspect that these two problems are because the hedgetrimmer was designed by a man, for men (who go to the gym), and I am a female with weaker muscles! Having said this I still love the hedge trimmer and am glad I bought it - I would certainly buy the same one again, and would recommend it.
