Bosch 06008B3001 Cordless Telescopic Hedge Trimmer UniversalHedgePole 18 (Without Battery and Charger)

Product Information

It is specially designed for starters and pros so that the task of garden maintenance will be a stroll in the park. If you want to extend the performance of any hedge trimmer, it needs a decent blade cover. I’m happy to report that the blade cover is one of the best ones I’ve tried out. What makes it easy to use is that it’s more like a sleeve that completely encloses the blade. I much prefer it to a fiddly bit of plastic you need to feed onto the blade. It’s much better at keeping the dust off the blades for long term storage as well.

The Vonhaus long reach hedge trimmer has an anti-vibration system, which makes it possible for you to get closer to it. That way, you will be able to achieve more effective cutting at all times. Its blades are made of hardened steel, and that is why you can rely on its durability. I found this to be one of the Bosch’s main benefits. You save a lot of time and effort if you don’t have to take the machine apart just to reach the top of a tree or hedge.This machine comes with 51cm precision blades so that you can cut at the highest level of precision. With a low vibrating cutting action, which oscillates at a speed of 1400 revolutions per minute, you may not be able to get a better deal elsewhere. Besides, the cord can easily get caught between the hedges, or you may accidentally cut through it with the machine. Either way, an electric hedge trimmer is not the most straightforward machine to use, and you will have to be extra careful to trim with it.

At the other end of the scale from the mighty Stihl is Ryobi’s far lighter and quieter trimmer that uses the same 18V battery as their electric screwdriver but is still powerful enough for the vast majority of garden jobs. The Einhell 3410866 GE-HH long reach hedge shears comes with a tiltable main handle with four settings for optimum performance. Also, the motorhead is tiltable and you can use it in seven settings. Its telescopic aluminium handle is adjustable so that you can be more flexible with your operations. Long-reach hedge trimmers are known for their long shaft which one can adjust in length. The cutting blade of this machine sits at the end of this shaft, and you only need to tilt the blade to cut your hedge. A shoulder strap is in place to reduce pressure on your shoulders during operations. There is a blade sheath that helps in providing adequate safety during and after use.
