 Sharp and light. June 26, 2008

I've found these trimmers very easy to use. They're light to handle and come with a good length of cable. The blades are sharp and cut through quite thick stems.
A good purchase.

I bought this item to replace a similar Challenge trimmer that broke down after only 6 months. This was the only one with a collection device in the catalogue. The Challenge trimmer was better balanced, especially doing the sides and the collection device was much better(lighter and shorter) and because it dosn't curve away from the blade you're restricted to using only one side of the blade with it on. I intend to make a smaller one from a piece of 100mm PVC duct. Also, I would have liked to have had an inspection plate on the bottom to enable lubrication of the cam.
Plus points. The blades are the best and sharpest I've ever used so take care, first time users. You could take a bigger bite than you intend. Not as powerful as most other "2 footers". It dosn't need to be with blades this good. Well worth the extra money.
ps. Curiosity got the better of me and I opened it up to inspect the cam mechanism after 10 hrs continuous use. I need'nt have bothered. The mechanism is so well enclosed that it keeps the grease in contact with the parts that need lubrication much better than other cutters I've used.
Rest assured, this thing is built to last.

Not used it for the main job i got it for yet, but initial trial proven very good indeed! Incredibly quick at it's task.
>I think it is was worth getting this slightly longer cutting blade.
>The power cable is a good length (though need something to store it around).
>Plastic teeth cover is fiddly to put back on - maybe practice required.
>I have sprayed the teeth with WD40 after use as good practice and advised by a neighbour.
So far so good - recommended! (shouldn't give full 5 stars untill it has fully proven itself)

I bought this from Amazon it was free delivery and delivered on time. The Trimmer is excellent, trims really thick branches, also has long reach. Very powerful and easy to use. Would recommend to anyone as good value for less than 60

I can't praise this product highly enough (although I am probably about to). I used to use a Black and Decker hedge trimmer and cutting the hedge was always a chore - each area needed three goes and it took forever, and the results were never that brilliant.
In fact I thought it was my fault that the results weren't good, until we got this new Bosch hedge trimmer. It really is the bee's knees: the blades are super sharp (careful now!) and 2 feet long, so they cover a much longer area with each stroke, and the sharpness means you only need to run over each patch once. It has literally halved (or more) the time it takes me to cut our hedges. I wouldn't say it's become a pleasure, but it's certainly much less of a chore.
The collector is a useful attachment, but only for doing the top of the hedge. Then it gathers the trimmings as you go along, and you can just tip them into your bin as you go.
All in all a superb product which has transformed my gardening duties!
