    Wonderful
    This is an amazing hedge cutter, I read all the reviews before buying and can say they were all so right.
    I have inherited a wretched Laurel hedge which is so difficult to keep in orderthis cutter sliced straight through without any trouble and the job was done in 30 mins!!
    Light weight.I have arthritic shoulders but no problem, easy to charge and fit the battery, also the controls are easy to usein fact I enjoyed doing the hedge for the first time.
    Brilliantdon’t hesitate if you need an efficient hedge cutter, you won’t be disappointed.

    Battery lasts longer than I hoped
    I thought I would get a break while cutting the hedge so that the battery could be recharged, but it kept on going. That’s 20m of 1.5m tall privet hedge cut on one charge. I’m really impressed.
    Moving to battery power also means I no longer have to stay around an extension lead, nor move the value out of the way. It’s so much easier, and so much safer, I’m glad I’ve moved to battery power.

    Good blade reach
    I bought this for the longer blade than my previous model. It saves me standing on my garden to reach shrubs .

    It wasn't cheap but it is a great product.
    It makes cutting back the hedges and shrubs easier, quicker and more enjoyable if that is possible.

    Absolutely fantastic!
    Not had a battery powered hedge trimmer before, bought this to replace my old electric one. Wished I’d swopped years ago. Have just cut 3 sides of a 40m long mixed hedge on one charge. Plenty enough power to cut through decent size stems. Light enough for a 50+ woman (me!) to use. Delighted.

    Much easier than corded hedgetrimme
    Great improvement over my previous corded trimmer. No wires to connect or keep out of the way whilst cutting. No problem with battery usage which lasted without recharge for over an hour and much longer than I was expecting.
    Used on leylandii hedge and pyracantha hedge. Both cut well and easily despite being the first cut of the year.

    I bought this Bosch which I immediately returned (the plastic cover was so flimsy I couldn’t get the cover off the blades – kept getting caught and would not remove (I was successful after about 20 attempts). Didn’t even bother firing it up, I’d used a Spear & Jackson before (which is great) so returned this and bought one of those instead

    Light and easy to use
    We have an electric hedge cutter which I find very heavy to use and such a nuisance managing extension leads in every direction as needed, due to a very big garden.
    So this was for me and I am thrilled with it! Went around the garden trimming overgrown shrubs and borders. Charge lasts for ages. Cutters go through thick branches without a problem and it is light to use.
    Looking forward to autumn when I can really set to cutting shrubs back.

    Perfect for most gardens.
    I have a very large garden, one hedge is a farm hedge thick blackthorn and holly. This is great for Privet, Holly, Buddleja and anything you will come across in a garden, I like it and you have no danger of cutting through a cable. However for some of the thicker Blackthorn and Sycamore hedging I have it gets stuck. For that I use the Bosch Hedge trimmer AdvancedHedgeCut, that beast will go through anything, but it heavier and you have to use a cable. Over the three years I have had it I have cut it twice, thankfully I have a safety thermal cut-out, on my extension lead.
    I would recommend this, it will last for about 45 minutes of cutting on one charge, you can get a lot done in that time.

    Nice compact light trimme
    Cuts quickly, thick hedging tackled easily. Clears any jammed branches at a press of the switch. Much sleeker than my last trimmers. Shorter blades but compromised to gain 20 mm cut capacity which I’m impressed with. The Bosch registration is a hassle, scan doesn’t work and Manual sign in was laborious as it’s unclear which numbers are which codes etc.

    Easy to use
    Bought this as a replacement for my old Bosch mains operated [with cable] trimmer which was too costly to repair. This one is lighter weight than the previous mains operated one and is easier to use as it does not have the trailing cable On limited trials so far it appears to work well.

    Amazingly Powerful and Effective
    I don’t write many reviews but my experience using the Bosch cordless hedge trimmer has moved me to do so. After two days of use I can reveal that it is quite simply – superb!!!
    I have three sad corded hedge trimmers hanging in my shed and have a history of cutting through cables – my record is about 90 seconds. I ventured once into using a G-Tech cordless (having been very impressed with their vacuum cleaners) but found it jammed and cut poorly.
    The Bosch cordless is, however, brilliant. I used it to cut an entire large privet hedge and its long blade and free cordless movement meant it was far quicker and far neater than all my previous efforts. Even my wife was impressed – words I don’t often write in that order!
    On top of that, the battery technology seems to have come on in leaps and bounds as I completed all my work without the battery fading at all.
    This hedge trimmer will go down as one of my best ever investments and I would recommend it highly to any prospective purchaser.

    Arrived quickly. Tried it out on one of my garden bushes as was part charged and ready to go after opening. This Hedge trimmer is medium weight for me but easy to use even with my weak arms. Cuts very well and just what i needed after cutting through the cable on my old Bosch trimmer(that’ll now be a spare). Battery charged to full strength very quickly and well worth paying the extra expense to not have a trailing cable. No more cutting through cables for me now! Sorted!

    Like a hot knife through butte
    I was getting increasingly fed up of hand trimming a particularly large hedge we have, so I waited for the price to drop on this one. Thankfully it did, and I gave it a go on the garden this week! Absolutely amazing – I’m kicking myself for not buying one sooner.

    Does the job impressively well
    Easy to use and with impressive performance. I like the shorter teeth at the end that can cut through thicker branches. Then it’s easy to sweep through the rest of the hedge with the full length of the blade. I got about forty minutes trimming on one battery charge and it only took fifteen minutes to be back up to 80% charged and ready to go again. Just time for a nice cup of tea in between trimming sessions. Since I did a full trim of all my hedges, there has been a bit of further growth, but I have been able to re-trim very quickly leaving a well-manicured look. I am so glad I bought this.

    Good but don't buy a cheaper versio
    I’m pleased I didn’t go for a cheaper version with a smaller battery. The cutter is light, easy to carry, easy to use, quick charge and does the job efficiently.
    However, if you have a lot of hedge e.g. in eccess if 50 metres, my advice would be to spend the money on a really good one with a large battery

    Excellent Product at good price.
    I really am pleased with these hedge trimmers. They are both lightweight and powerful and cut with very little effort. Battery charges in about an hour and is sufficient for my two 20 ft hedges on one charge.

    Have only used twice since purchase but would recommend. Make sure you lubricate the blade before and after use with the proper lubricant to maintain optimum performance and cutting ability.

    This trimmer works great! It has the same battery as other bosh products I own so is really easy to mix and match charging. That said I’ve not managed to run the battery down despite having a pretty large hedge. So I have no idea how much hedge you’d really need.

    It’s powerful enough to get through some of the tougher branches. The odd one that it didn’t go through I had to take long arm cutters to anyway, they were beyond secateurs as well.

    Quality product at reasonable price
    A typical Bosch product. Robust, well put together, good cutting blades, and better than my previous Bosch because of the length of the blades which will cope with more than privets. The shears are well balanced, easy to manoeuvre, but does require stout pressure on the trigger before blades operate. Good value from a brand which is trustworthy.

    Great weight and cutting – we have a really awkward few areas we need to cut and with a wire you spend most of your time ensuring it’s out the way.

    I love this!
    I have had this for over a year now and remain extremely happy with it. It’s been put to good use trimming tons of hedges. It’s lightweight enough for a good, long hedge-cutting session. I am delighted by how long the battery lasts and the fact that I can just slot it in and get going even if it’s not been used (or recharged) for a while! I did buy a spare battery too but I rarely cut enough in one go to have needed the second one.

    I love the extra tough bit at the end of the cutting blades that allows you to cut through slightly thicker branches. Because there are always slightly thicker bits, aren’t there?

    The three-way hand grips make it easy to use in all positions and mean that I feel really safe – unless both hands are engaged it doesn’t start.

    It also has a function whereby it stops working immediately if you get something stuck in it, so you can’t damage it. I always remove the battery before I start pulling the stuck bit of wood out (just because I’m very cautious) and I’ve never had a problem getting it working again immediately the jam is sorted.

    Overall, a really excellent well-designed product.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersDifferent league to all other 18v cordless hedge cutters!
    If you want a cordless hedge trimmer for thicker or less well kept hedges, then this is the only one to own. It’s a superbly well balanced & lightweight device which cuts through stems up to 20mm thick with ease. The latter is due in part to Bosch’s unique anti-stall technology which reverses the blades in a nano second if the circuitry detects jamming. This feature not only saves time but can also save your fingers as trying to un-jam a sharp bladed hedge trimmer can be quite a dangerous process! This is the longer (50cm) blade model which at a mere 2.6Kgs is definitely worth the extra money and reach and with the equally lightweight and tiny universal battery included, you’ll be able to cut a lot of hedge before the power runs out.

    Combine the above with the Bosch X2 year warranty and the fact that this occasionally features as an Amazon deal of the day, then quite simply, even at full price nothing beats this in the 18v category for weight and power. The quality of the blades and the electronics that prevent it from jamming are the best on the market, period. Highly recommended.

    Lightweight, but powerful enough to trim conifers with ease.
    Well its lightwight compared to the old wired version that I bought this to replace. And being cordless its easy to manage and manipulate to where you want to cut.
    I bought it primarily for trimming conifer bushes and it went through threee bushes with ease and didnt seem to touch the batterly life. Only really need it to trim a maximum of 1cm conifer branches and the branch blade cutting feature saw these off with ease.

    Super Heckenschere
    Diese musste meiner Elektrisch kabelgebundenen weichen, und ich bereue es nicht – und ich schneide mir nicht mehr die Verlngerungsschnur durch

    A cut above the res
    Easy to use – the battery is a bit fiddly to put in but that’s probably the user! I used it for the first time today and it’s great. Not too heavy and safe to use. It doesn’t like thicker branches but if you persist it will cut. Like anything , experiment and it will be fine.

    Very good performance at this price
    Seems very good so far. Not too noisy and recharges quickly. A safety/lock switch would be a good addition but this is a relatively cheap model. I’d definitely recommend it for easy general maintenance of small to medium gardens

    Great - no long trailing cables getting in the way
    What a joy to use this hedge cutter. Having had to worry about cables, keep them out of the way of the blades, watch you do not trip on them, are they long enough, and then when the hedge is cut, all those cable to be picked up again. This Bosch hedge trimmer is wonderful, and one added bonus is that if you just want to cut a missed branch on the hedge, you just have to walk down to the problem branch, and with no cables to worry about, the job is done in seconds. I would recommend this hedge cutter to any gardener who has a hedge to look after.

    Freed from cables
    This is an excellent hedge trimmer for a number of reasons. The first being that I can use it at a distance from the house without having to work out how to get a cable there or have to use a smelly, noisy, heavy petrol hedge trimmer. Secondly as a 62 year old woman, it’s light enough for me to use with ease. Thirdly it does what it says on the tin, i.e. it cuts hedges, including slightly thicker twigs/small branches. If it catches on anything it stops and backs up automatically to clear. The battery seems to work for ages too. Didn’t time it, however I got tired before it did so while I had a break I topped up the battery and finished the rest later on. Noise isn’t loud either. Best one I’ve ever had.

    Good overall machine
    Very good hedge cutter light and easy to use. Not a lot of power but it does the job easily cuts leyandii and privet hedges. Weight is practically nothing so you can cut without exertion until the battery runs ou

    Lightweight, but not on power.
    This makes cutting the hedge a lot easier as there is no more faffing about with a cord. I ran out of hedge before I ran out of charge, so the battery, although quite small physically, is up to the job. The end of the cutter has slightly different blades which are good for thicker, gnarly outgrowth bits. Now we just need something to collect the cuttings automatically .

    Easy to use, not too heavy
    Since purchased in May 2019, I have been using it almost weekly except the winter months. Now at August 2020, the battery and the trimming blade are still as strong as new. It is not too heavy, and there is no wire to worry about. I have been through 3 mains powered hedge trimmer, one battery powered one, but none of those as as good as this one. I use the same batter to other Bosch 18V garden tools, that is a good point too.

    Surprisingly robust and powerful. Happy to recommend.
    A good choice for typical garden hedge maintenance. I have been well pleased with how well it is able to handle my privet and laurel hedges.
    The battery lasts just about the same length of time that I do, probably about 30 minutes of solid hedge-cutting.

    They work really well and are lightweight. I’ve used mains hedge trimmers for the last 30 years but these Bosch battery trimmers work just as well. The battery still had plenty of charge after 70 minutes of use.

    Well built and works as advertised
    Very light but cuts through quite thick branches with little problem. Battery last a long time and quick charging. I had one of the popular well advertised trimmers but was not strong enough and broke after a year and kept jamming. This Bosch is great. As I am seventy plus I find it handles comfortable which is important to me. Well built and works as advertised.

    Should have bought one years ago
    For years I have struggled cutting my hedge and bushes with a cheap cordless trimmer from a DIY outlet. This trimmer is so much better. I was able to cut my hedge back much further than before which has consequently stopped it growing so quickly. It is light and easy to use and I have used it for about 30 minutes and it is still going and has not lost power. The re-charging time is quick. This was a great buy.

    Great battery life
    Very happy with this trimmer. Not having to worry about cutting through the wire and having to use extension cords is just great. The battery life is impressive.
    Throughly reccomend.

    Impressive, no less.
    I’ve owned a few hedge cutters, but cheaper ones sadly, and therefore been struggling a lot with the job. Not so this time! The Bosch impressed me and made the job SO much easier, including the relief of not having to worry about a lead to cut through. Quick and sharp cutting with no troubling jams.

    Surprisingly good with long battery life.
    I took a punt on a cordless cutter and I am delighted. We have thick Leylandii trees in the back and they are a nightmare to keep trimmed. This makes much easier work of it. Perfect, light, easy to use, powerful motor for thick branches and a very good battery life.

    50 cm was enough to replace a 60 cm petrol one.
    Superb. Very light and cuts very well.

    I had intended to buy the 55 cm version to replace a 60 cm petrol hedge trimmer, but got this by (my) mistake. However it’s so light I can use it with my arms fully extended so I can actually cut further than with the petrol one.
