A strong and well made hedge cutter that is easy to handle and makes the tedious job of hedge cutting much quicker. Very pleased with this purchase.
I can save a lot of time cutting brambles with the power of this hedge trimmer – which is great news as it’s very heavy to use and you can’t last very long – my arms can’t outlast the batteries that’s for sure especially above head height. However I can’t fault the build quality and how easily it cuts through the thickest plants.
Used on farm hedges, and performed well. So quiet, and so light compared to my old petrol one.
Easy to use, well balanced, battery lasts long time easily cuts long hedge without recharge. Only issue really could be slightly more powerful can stall occasionally.
As soon as the batteries were fully charged I cut ther hedge in the front garden. It was a real pleasure not having to worry about cutting through any cables as with my last electric hedge trimmer. Once the hedge was trimmed in record time I went around the back of the house and shaped a tree that had been bugging me for months.
Both jobs finished and life left in the batteries. used it a few times now and still pleased with the results.
This the best of several items I have purchased over the last few years. I always envied council operatives with their petrol driven clippers.
This the equal and really does do the task in hand.
Its quite heavy so 15 mins a time best for me at 79 .
Cuts through our mature hedges with ease. Equally as good, if not better, than our mains hedge trimmer.
Battery life is good enough for about 50m of hedge.
Battery lasts long enough to cut the biggest hedges. Light to use and provided you look after blade maintenance it cuts very well, better than expected!
My hedge is native UK species, Beech, Copper Beech, Hornbeam, Hazel, Purple Hazel, Gelder Rose, English Dog Rose, Privet, Blackthorn, Hawthorn & Holly. It grows like crazy every year and gives a wonderful show of contrasting colours and flowers as well as some pretty thick stems that need trimming back to keep the whole hedge tight and compact at the end of each growing season. Every year I cut it with shears but this year I nought the Worx 60cm hedge cutter and boy oh boy am I glad I did. It went through it like the proverbial hot knife. After an hour of work the battery indicator still showed 3 out of the 4 green lights, another hour with hedge cut neatly it still showed 3 green lights. Very pleased with this item, would not hesitate to buy more Worx tools.
So much easier than having to route electricity cables through shrubs and bushes. Just as efficient as cabled hedge trimmers. Superb battery life and very easy handling.
Excellent, long reach with plenty of power ,and decent battery run time, I hesitated in favour of the single battery machine at first as it was cheaper but the reviews convinced me the 40volt was the one to have if you have a garden full of privet and shrubbs, ordered bare unit as already have worx drill and grinder battery’s and charger so it worked out a bit cheaper, it can get a bit heavy while using but I just stop for a rest now and again, to finish, highly recommended, as worx power tools are well made and reliable and worth the extra you pay for them, no regrets whatsoever from me in purchasing this hedgecutter.
Impressive for a battery operated hedge trimmer, made light work of my mums 9 foot high 25 foot hedge and some shrubs with still showing 3 bars of power left.
Next day spent 5 hours in our own garden cutting back some rather large shrubs and it managed these with ease, again still showing power left, of I didn’t use it for 5 hours flat but still impressive.
Personally I found the weight ok, not light but still manageable with the two small 2ah batteries but if you put the 4ah batteries in then it starts to become a bit cumbersome but does give it more bite.
Not light but very powerful, cut through my 25 meters of privet hedge with no bother. Battery life easily coped but arms ached at by the end. However would recommend
Good solid item, qhite heave but robust and great cutting edge
Cuts really well. Battery lasts up to 2 hours with on/off use.
Its quite a large tool, much bigger and heavier than expected.
Can be hard on the arms is using for big job.
I checked out all the reviews before buying this and wasn’t disappointed with the result. I have other Worx battery operated tools anyway and knew the quality of Worx products. I did several large bushes with this and it cut extremely well with still plenty of life left in the batteries.. So much easier than having a trailing power lead. Very happy indeed.
It did what it said on the box fantastic bit of kit I would recommend it to everyone thanks.
Came next day wasn’t sure it would do my hedge in one go but did it with ease and 3 out of 5 lights left on the battery. Even cut through a real thick branch. So much quicker than petrol one as don’t have to keep starting, it’s lighter as well
I have cut a couple of long hedges with this trimmer. It is not as powerful as my petrol trimmer, but is much lighter and much easier to manoeuvre. You soon learn the trimmer’s limitations and adapt accordingly.
Battery life is good. There are two battery indicators on the top of the trimmer, which give accurate read outs.
I have a Worx strimmer with two Worx batteries and have them ready charged on stand by.
Overall, I have been very pleased with this hedge trimmer.
Excellent hedge trimmer my only concern is that it is quite heavy compared with a n=mains powered item. This isn’t a concern at ground level but working from a ladder it can become difficult.
Easy to use, I trim a 15 meter hedge and have 30% battery power left, not as powerful as some electrical cutters but good enough and more of a plus Then negative !
Great machine. But not sure if I should have gone for the 1 battery model.. used it a couple of times and it still jams if you try to cut anything bigger than the width of your little finger… so 25mm dia.. no chance…
Purchased after reading the review in Which magazine. I’ve had it for a number of weeks now and can’t fault it. Battery life is exceptional, and power is off the scale allowing me to cut through thick branches like a knife through butter. Best hedge cutter I’ve owned.
First time i used this the batteries didn’t last long despite a full charge but after another charge i was able to do full hedge on a single charge easily this is common for worx tools.
Cuts through surprisingly thick branches and has a great reach the swivel handle is a great help simple to assemble and well balanced comes with 2x batteries and dual charger recommended
This is amazing, as goos as any petrol hedgecutter but without the hassle of petrol, oil etc. Lightweight, I opted for 2 6amp batteries and these just keep going maybe 3 hours run time possibly more
This is a very powerful hedge trimmer that will zip through even the thickest of growth. The twist handle facility is good for cutting the side of hedges. Battery life is very good.
Brilliant hedge trimmer, cuts fairly thick stuff at full charge, but struggles as battery life is at its lowest, its good for 40 mins easily continuel cutting… The blades are really sharp… And very long.. And because you can use the battery in other worx products.. Would recommend this to anyone thinking of buying a hedge trimmer.
Made short work of my overgrown hedges, cutting through some pretty substantial branches. Great if you’re already invested in the Worx ecosystem, the 2ah batteries are enough to run this machine well, the 4ah and higher made it a little too heavy for me to be comfortable for long term use.
I would definitely recommend this product.
Got this yesterday cut 20 feet of hedge all round in one hour ( took longer to clear up )
Battery’s was full when started only one 1/3 power used its a great hedge cutte
This machine will get through all sorts of easy and not so easy hedge types. Battery life is some 20 minutes running. I am a convert also having a grass strimmer and power drill. For the batteries and charger I bought the drill with 2 x 20v batteries and a one hour charger. Cost me just 10 more than buying the batteries and charger separately and I have a very nice drill as well!
I can’t comment on the single battery trimmer, but this double battery model actually surprised me. It cut a lot better than I expected, and cut every bit as good as my old mains powered trimmer. Now I generally only trim my hedge two or three times a year, and my hedge is around half the border of a 1,300 square foot garden, so for me I think it’ll do the job for years. I’ve only used it twice and both times the batteries managed constant use for 20+ minutes.
Build quality is decent and its really easy to use, but it does start to feel a bit heavy near the end of doing the hedge.
Worth it if you’ve already got a few worx tools and a collection of batteries.
Also the thickness of branch it will cut is the greatest I have had on a cordless trimmer, it only stalled once. The only way my job could of been better is if I had a work platform so I could reach the top at the back rather than using my pole hedge trimmer.
Great hedge trimmer for medium and large hedges.
