Great quality and value. Well designed and very solid. A little heavier that I expected but not a problem.
Only used once but impressed. I have a shrub hedge with thick branches and it cut nicely. I am 65+ female and managed to cut a 30ft hedge in one session, I had to cut the top on step ladders and still found it doable , a male would find it lightweight I found it manageable.
The long blade made it easy to get a nice straight top and square shaped edge. The option to tilt the blade made it easier to use. From my experience I would recommend
I have a third of an acre of hedge and three sides are privot hedge. I have to cut both sides. I can just manage the job in one session on a single charge. Well pleased.
Perfect for hedges which require more frequent use (especially in older arthritic hands)
I am a professional gardener.I use this daily and have been using it for two months. Its lightweight and easy to use. The two batteries that came with it are very good, each one lasts for about 45 mins.The one thing I like is the fact that if it gets stuck in something too wide or tough for the blades, it cuts out then after 20 seconds restarts cutting again.The batteries have a window with an LED display giving an indication of how much batter power is left. Great machine.Absolutely no issues.The two standard batteries are adequate and easily lock into place with a push and a click.
This is great, cut my hedges, so simple to use. I’ve got a spare battery, so when one has run out, I just put another battery in. I would highly recommend this hedge trimme
Hedge trimming changes angles easily and so well balanced. Quick charging too. Just great!
So handy being wireless and having the swivel to rotate the handle for the direction you’re cutting in. Battery lasts a good amount of time and has held partial charge whilst unused.
Great garden tool. So much easier than a corded trimmer. Would highly recommend. Worth every penny!
The battery lasts long wnough to cut my hedges! Woohoo. It has this neat bit which sort of saws through thicker thicket! Getting the hesge back into shape. It is longer than I imagined so it reaches easily across the hedge. The battery charges up wuickly compared to my old one and hilds the chsrge much longer. My only negstive is it is a bit heavy for me as a 66 year old woman with arthritis. But if I tackle with lots of rests it is fine.
I like it, especially for cutting back thicker knobbly Beech hedge branches. The charge is useful enough although longer time would be good. This is far outweighed by having no cord, fantastic! The long cutting arm is good.
The protective plastic ‘sleeve’ is rather stiff although this was eased with WD40.
This is a fantastic bit of kit. Very easy to use and great value for money. The battery lasts a surprisingly long time. We have a large hedge and it has had no trouble cutting the different thickness of branches and lasting the time it has taken to complete. If there was one improvement to make it would be a power on and off switch as the hand position to turn it on is also a handy way to carry the hedge trimmer. This can be a concern when passing the trimmer to another perso
Easily the best hedge trimmer I have owned over the years. Not a great reach, but highly efficient and strongly recommend
I am not a fan of Karcher pressure washers as from experience the quality isn’t what it should be, however this ticked all the boxes for what I needed. I always try to buy from AMAZON as the customer service is second to none if there is an issue. On receipt of it I charged the battery (about 45mins) and gave it a whirl, it is light but powerful and easily tackled box hedges and bigger bushes. The rotating handle is great as it saves awkward wrist and hand positions. As Amazon is an authorised Karcher seller I was able to order a free second battery which arrived less than two weeks later. Even without the second battery I was able to cut back a jungle at my mum’s garden which hadn’t been touched in a long time as the photos show, using only 61% of the battery capacity. Once you get the rhythm the trimmer cuts easily through branches of finger thickness, only occasionally jamming. When it jams you have to give it time to reset, about a minute or so.
Fantastic machine, no need to pay for a more expensive or powerful machine, no cables and no smelly petrol or maintenance issues. Great purchase!
