Highly visible mains cord.
I have always loved Bosch products based on the quality of build, durability and reasonable value for money.
As I mentioned above the quite generous detachable mains cord has been manufactured using a very visible colour (Red)
This particular model is nice and easy to handle with my arthritis ridden hands.
The blades cut though my privvet hedge with ease and handled larger steams up to 15mm .
Whilst the trimmer is available in a longer length I stuck with the compact version 45cms
I’m really chuffed and would recommend to anyone with compact hedges where a long reach wasn’t an issue.
Does the job
Happy with hedge cutter does the job it was bought for, light weight, easy to handle and happy cuts through my medium sized hedges and shrubs. Quality you’d expect from brand
Works well, good balance.
This item comes with a useful scabbard to protect the bcutter blade from damage as well as safety for users.
Light in weight the cutter made short work of a 40 ft laurel hedge
does the job well
Bought to replace a heavier duty model which had a faulty cable (after 12 years and being severed several times) not quite as much power but still cuts through bushes and light branches with ease, easy to operate and lightweight. Good safety features and I especially like the fact the wire plugs firmly into the machine (and stays fast) and it is not wired directly into it (this would make it easier to replace wire if it were accidentally cut) good length of wire and with an extra extension easily reaches all of the garden. Recommended.
Great hedge trimme
Great tool, very sharp, good long blade, double safety switches, handy cable connecter , good value for money, probably not the lightest of trimmers but I used it for a few hours yesterday and no aches or pains today.
* Physical
I have used one of these before. The previous model Bosch I owned was my father’s. He got it second-hand. And it still lasted over two decades before it died on me. This new one has the same lightweight, quality feel. It’s easy to handle as it’s balanced in your hands. The cabling on this is longer than my previous model. I still recommend you get a cable extension reel to extend its range of usage. If you feel hard done by having to buy this cable reel just for this, think it will help you hoover your car and mow your lawn?
* First looks
It came within 24 hours. i saved 15. I decided to set up a three-year warranty. To do so you’re required to surf the Bosch website. I entered into this online warranty form, two serial codes. This has a single letter in its number code. And the other code is on the box it came in. This has just a string of 9 or 10 numbers only. Then I printed out and scanned my Amazon bill and uploaded it in the form as part of my three-year guarantee warranty. This proof of payment is uploaded at the end of the creation of the warranty and then if it is sorted, you can download and print the tailored to your customer warranty document for safekeeping. I would staple the warranty and the bill of sale and keep these somewhere safe.
* What is it like?
These cutters are great. I recommend the application of a lubricant – such as WD-40 – to the blades. This one is cheaper, and i.m.h.o, just as good as the own brand Bosch spray-on lubricant. I say this with confidence. As I used this same spray on this same Bosch model hedge cutter and it lasted over two decades! This Bosch hedge cutter can be loud when you’re using it. If the hedges are wet, I suggest you wait for a dry day. They can cut more than fresh growth. It’s easy to cut verticle and horizontal level cuts on well-established hedges. Not all cutters can do this on strong growth. The way it is not too heavy helps when using it. It has a plastic scabbard to protect the blades. If required to put it in storage.
The blades on this Bosch hedge cutter are the same length as on my previous model. It feels great build quality. Please take care and try not to cut the cable you’re powering it with! My dad and I did this a few times! I have discovered that a replacement cable for this hedge cutter can be sourced from Amazon suppliers. So if you must maintain the safest usage of this tool, and you do cut the cable, you can buy one for less than 20.
* Summary
This hedge cutter feels and handles with great control and balance, with not being too heavy. And it has a strong enough motor to handle well-established hedges, and to trim them back. I expected this device to be around 90. This is based on checking with a nearby, well-known physical DIY store, the one spelt with three characters. It’s great it’s sold on Amazon at a more manageable price.
Bosch 0600847A70 AHS 45-16 Electric Hedge Cutter, 450 mm Blade Length, 16 mm Tooth Opening, Gree
Owned for several years , used to maintain a couple of hundred feet of privet hedge about 4′ high, only problem I had was stupidly cutting through the cable. Replaced the cable without issue. I always give it the occasional spray of WD40 or similar type PTFE oil spray during use, I’ve also given the teeth a light dressing with a Dremmel rotary sharpening stone a few times, well worth the effort to keep it maintained in good order.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great trimme
Amazon sorted out an issue quickly, nothing wrong with the trimmer I have had this model before, replaced due to it being run over but wanted the battery powered model.
5.0 out of 5 stars Didn`t struggle with an overgrown hedge
Due to ill health my hedge had got a bit out of hand but this cutter did a great job. Cutting cleanly without tearing the hedge and not straining the motor. Nice to use easily and safely. The cord unplugging is a handy touch, makes it easier to put away after use and store till next time. Happy
I’m 75 Yeats old and found it very easy to use and much lighter than my battery One that I had to keep charging and has finally given up great inexpensive buy.
Quite pleased with this machine which has effectively cut through some extensive hedge growth. It has a decent blade length and isn’t too heavy to handle. Only fault is the rather short power lead so an extension lead is required for garden mobility.
Typical Bosch produc
Easy to use and trim the bushes. Light and maneuverable
Works grea
Up to now works well, only used it twice, but seems really good, no problems
The most powerful and efficient.
I have owned a petrol-powered hedge trimmer and cordless/battery powered one as well.
This is by far way better.
It trimmed the hedge like butter.
Nice lightweight piece of ki
It is lightweight but sturdy and sliced through the hedge in no time at all. A real pleasure to use. A very tried and tested brand name that I go for first as they have always been reliable.
Easy hedge and safe cutter!
East to use! Safe, sturdy! Long lead! Good value for money!
Fairly lightweigh
This is not a heavy duty hedge trimmer, but it is a useful tool, and I have been strong enough to use it myself on some of our hedges. Which is what I wanted it for.
So probably not the tool for cutting your sixth foot hedges, but a useful tool for periodic tidying up, even if like me you are 5ft 3 in without strong wrists. I did buy myself some ear protectors and a visor, and make sure I am otherwise safe when using, so don’t forget those steps too.
Be careful with the cable!
Nice and light and easy to use but I managed to cut through the cable after just 30 minutes so keep an eye on it. I’m so careful with things like this and still not quite sure how I managed it! Otherwise, it did the job great!
What to say?
Easy to use and what else to say? It’s a Bosch
Hedge cutte
I’m instructed to write what I liked/didn’t like about the hedgecutters and what I used them for. Weirdly, I used them to cut hedges.
I liked that they worked and did the job required. What I didn’t like was the blade guard was awkward to put on when I finished.
Excellent product and easy to use.
I bought this a few months ago but have only just used it. It trimmed brilliantly in no time at all, was easy to hold and has a safety feature to prevent accidents. Would highly recommend this Bosch hedge trimmer.
short back and sides
Only used once on 2 large shrub /hedges, dealt with them no problem . I’m not sure they are for smaller shrubs could be to robust. Happy so far well see how long it lasts
Fast and easy trimming
This electric trimmer is so much lighter and easier to use than our old petrol beast and makes trimming and shaping hedges quite fun. My husband says he’d prefer a battery operated one to avoid the hassle of extension leads and the risk of cutting the power lead but as a battery adds so much weight I’m happier with this version (and an RCD plug on the extension lead just in case!).
26mm cutting gap
This trimmer is suitable for medium size hedges and copes well with branches.
It is quite heavy and one does need to be careful that cord is looked after when operating off step ladders.
But in overall terms its a good buy.
Great buy.
Good power, lightweight and easy to use. Although it do like the double safety feature it does restrict being able to lean right across my 8′ high and about 2.5′ wide hedge.. just meant sneaking into the neighbour’s side to finish the top.. I recommend highly!
Very sharp-does the job
My old trimmer died , so I picked this one and it arrived in 20hours by prime. It is far more efficient (bur a bit heavier ) than the old one – A good buy !!
Tried and tested
I have had this product before so I knew it was what I needed. It suits my needs with a small garden and a few shrubs but would be capable of much more if needed.
Lightweigh
Very easy to use and cuts well. Just need to be careful not to slice through flex
Powerful & easy to use
I dislike, the cord must have a holder on it attach. I accidentally cut my cable on my first used. I didn’t realised that the cable was covered by bushes & whem I trimmed it, it was cut off. But I fixed the cable myself & it’s fine. So, what I did was I got the cable zip tied in a circle 5″ diameter to make the cable heavier & not to entangled anywhere again.
Really Pleased
Did short work of the bushes and privet hedge , wish I had bought one years ago , easy to use and the built in safety device makes sure you have both hands holding the trimmer before it will start. Really happy with it.
Good produc
Very easy to use & nice & lightweight, good price as well, perfect for me
As expected this is a replacement.
I have given this a 5 Star rating, I think Bosch are very mean with the cable.
Very ligh
My husband was not sure about this he did not think it would do the job, but it is a very sturdy hedge cutter
and certainly did the job and no complaints about sore arms.
Performance meets Expectations
After two uses of the hedge cutter I am satisfied with the performance and safety of this product. It is sturdy and cuts tougher branches. It is not too difficult to use with the effective safety features. Noise level is acceptable/low. Weight is tolerable and not confining for ground level use.
Much more powerful than a battery versio
My battery powered trimmer just couldn’t cope with my hedge. It would constantly get jammed and then the battery would die. It didn’t have enough power. Plugged this in and within a couple of minutes the job was done and the blades didn’t get jammed.
light and easy to use
my old hedge trimmer was 15 years old and was heavy and a short cut so you had to go ove parts you missed this Bosch was easy to use and very good on safety very sharp blades my only thing I would have liked was the blade cover could have been better otherwise a excellent tool
A must have.
It’s a safe tool to have for every garden lover.
Pretty dece
This is the first one of these I’ve bought or used, so can’t compare.
But it has done the job of trimming back the over grown bushes and brambles.
The double safety triggers are a bit annoying when trying to reach into a bush to get the back, but I’m sure it could be clamped or taped temporarily if needed?
Be careful of the lead though, it does seem to want to get in the way, and it is not very long so an extension cord will likely be essential.
Hedge cutte
Bought for my Mum as it stated light weight and it is light so just right for a lady in her 70s
Good
A good hedge cutter for trimming shrubs and topiary. Not sure whether it would handle anything very overgrown but great for most typical garden jobs. I wish the cable was a little longer and certainly that UK would have been considered for the plug but not a major issue. I am sure it can be worked out. Easy to use even if you are not a professional and sufficiently lightweight for most people.
Good Buy
Though I previously had a battery cutter it was always annoying to find I hadn’t charged it up enough when I wanted to use it. I was a bit wary of using a corded one but it has turned out to be very reliable, lightweight and safe if you following the instructions.
Bosch is my favorite name in power tools.
This is a nice lightweight and powerful small hedge cutter have the name of best power tools. Bosch always provide a quality, performance, longlife tools. This 45cm hedge cutter is ideal for smaller hedges, branches and bushes. The high-torque motor of 420 watts delivers excellent results. Compact and ergonomic, comfortable handles to grip for horizontal or vertical cutting. The tool weight is only 2.6 kg so the load to your arms and back is a minimum.
I use this cutter very often in my garden. Because I have a Carpal Tunnel syndrome and I cannot hold anything heavy in my hands so this cutter is perfect to me. I had other one which is bigger and heavier what causes a lot pain to my hands.
Very handy tool
Great for me to handle on smaller jobs. Glad I bought i
Does the job
Can very easily have nasty accident if you do not read the instructions
After long term use it is still brilliant at cutting.
Bosch Electric Hedge Cutter EasyHedgeCut 45 (420 W, Blade Length 45 cm, in Carton Packaging)
In the box.
The hedge trimmer and blade guard with fitted cable and plug, instructions and warrantee card.
Set up.
Just plug it in to the mains and its ready to go.
Using.
I have a lot of Bosch battery tools and they are great. I have the 18 volt hedge trimmer and it is fine for tidy ups but not powerful enough for more heavy work. This corded trimmer comes in handy with bigger cuts and more ambitious cutting. I would recommend getting a long extension cable to go with it. It cuts Privet, climbing roses, conifers and all of our hedges very well. I keep them neat with the battery one as it is much lighter.
Overall.
A good mains trimmer that has been in action all summer. just the odd spray of oil is needed to keep the trimmer in working order. Bosch tools are excellent.
Cutting That Hedge
Does the job well, would prefer no wire after using but all in all good, solid performe
Powerful trimme
Better than battery powered, much cheaper, just watch that cable when using!
