Bosch 0600849H70 EasyHedgeCut 18-45 Cordless Hedge Cutter with 18 V Lithium-Ion Battery, 450 mm Blade Length, 15 mm Tooth Opening

I bought this cordless cutter as I don’t like having cables around for this type of work. Hadn’t bought a cordless version of this before so wasn’t sure how good it would be. I’d read the reviews on here and the majority were good and they weren’t wrong. I am very pleased with its performance. It made light work of a job I’ve been putting off doing. Providing you don’t try and cut branches etc. of 3cm or more thickness then this will cut through easily. It took me longer to clear up than the cutting itself!! I would definitely recommend.

My garden has a hedge that's about 40 feet long and six feet high and several shrubs of different varieties. To trim them I have always used shears and a new pair had become due. But seeing this Bosch battery powered hedge cutter advertised at only twice the price of a decent pair of shears I decided to buy it instead. What a good choice! It's lightweight, easy to use and sharp. It easily cuts privett, box and quite 'woody' shrubs. I find the blade is just the right length in that it doesn't overbalance the tool. It also makes it easy to shape shrubs. The capacity of the battery is enough for all the work I have to do and delivers sufficient power without the hassle of trailing cables, extension leads and the inevitable cutting of the power line. I've owned many Bosch products and this seems as well made as others. I am confident it will last. If like me you don't have another Bosch battery product make sure you buy the option with battery and charger.

Lightweight and manageable due not having cord. Not as powerful as corded but overall beneficial and good at keeping on top of hedges.

I gave up on my Karcher hedge trimmer in the end due to its poorly designed and expensive batteries. I had three batteries fail just outside the 12-month warranty, they could not repair them, and I was not prepared to spend another £70 on a new one. This Bosch hedge trimmer is lightweight with a cutting blade length suitable for the general cutting back of hedges and bushes in the garden. The battery that came with it is quick and easy to charge and easy to slot into the hedge trimmer. I already have a cordless Bosch grass trimmer that takes the same battery (and another spare battery) so I can vouch that the batteries hold their charge well, are reliable in use, and I have had no failures in nearly 4 years. The Bosch batteries are also around £39.

Light, easy to use, not all that powerful but ok for hedge trimming new growth

My Mother had worked her way through many hedge cutters, in the search for something light, as her back it not all that it once was. So I brought her this battery powered Bosch, as I already had several 18v batteries.Even I was supervised how light the trimmer was compared to others that I have used in the past. It is a good size for many of the tasks that my mother has in her gardens, and the battery life is good to complete a lot of work, for it needs to be recharged.If you are getting one and a couple of hours is not long enough, I recommend having at least two batteries that you can use.I have bought and used many Bosch tools, both battery and cored, and I find that the build quality and reliability of all their tools are grand, for the enthusiastic hobbies, weather that be gardening or DIY.

I'm a 62 year old women I found this quite easy to use but it did get a bit heavy after prolonged use .The battery seems to last a long time I didn't need to charge it . Maybe it's me but I didn't find it that powerful but very quite .my nephew usually cuts my hedge with a petrol cutter with a long extension but I found it too heavy.This would be ok for a reasonable size garden but I'm on an acre 3 sides conifers I side laurels it seemed to cut the conifers easier .I was using it to tidy up what my nephew couldn't get finished but i don't think it would be suitable for very thick or tall hedges ( which he cut with the petrol cutter)

Great buy light easy to handle not scared of heavy duty trimming of hedges. Great battery life.
