Terratek Cordless Hedge Trimmer Long Reach 20V 1HR Fast Charge, 2.4m Telescopic Hedge Trimmer Cordless Hedge Cutter with 1x Battery, Shoulder Strap and Charger Included, Grey & Orange

I am delighted with this hedge trimmer. It simply does what it’s supposed to do.I needed a powerful trimmer that reached 2mtrs and not too heavy as I’m well into my 80’s.I am so delighted with the quality of this trimmer.Last year I was faced with a bill of £140 for less than an hours work by a man with a trimmer.For under £100 I now can do my own trimming.Delighted with this machine.

Generally very happy with these hedge cutters. Easy to use and quiet in use but I do agree with others who felt that they are rather heavy. It may be a lack of experience with this type of hedge cutter never having used a pole type before. I do feel that it is imperative to allow the shoulder strap to take as much of the weight as possible.Only used once but I would not go back to a standard hedge cutter again. The pole certainly adds a greater degree of safety as the cutters are well away from your hands and body.

Why didn’t I buy one of these ages ago. Trimmed the hedge in a fraction of the time it normally takes, no ladder or steps required and a better job done. Battery lasted the whole job with the spare on charge just in case.

I'm unsure what I was expecting from this but unfortunately it's almost too heavy for me to use. The jury is still out but I just a few test trims of hedges and realised that it's nearly impossible to use without also wearing the shoulder strap and, really, it should come with a full upper body harness. As I type this, my wrists still feel weak. Everything else seems OK. It seemed to cut fine. The noise isn't excessive or ear-piercing. Because the cutting teeth are so far from the handle it can be hard to cut things at close quarters, because you always need to be around 5 or 6 foot away. I'd say you should probably combine this with a more traditional trimmer for the close-up work.

Cheap tat!Used twice got it out after winter it would not work.. it’s either the battery or the motor. Was kep in dry shed . Simply busted with no apparent reason. If it’s the batteries (both of them) had a life span for charging once or twice in total.. either way it’s not worth a penny let alone so called reduced price of £89. Do not spend your money on this … buy something else!!

The whole system is good, It is light, easy to use and the blades are sharp. Extending it is easy, two batteries. A good price.However on the first time I used it on a yew hedge the blades jammed on a 8mm stem.( it should cope with at least 14mm according to the brief) From then on the motor started screeching. When this happened the blades slowed right down. I oiled the blades but it made no difference as soon as the blades are put to a hedge they slow down and the motor screams. This all happened in the first 10 minutes of use. I have checked other reviews and a lot of people have had the same thing happen.There are far more good reviews than bad so I am not sure why I got a duff model, It has been returned to amazon for a refund. I liked the system but I cannot recommend it because the one I had was so short lived.

This kit is a must for those considering a long reach hedge trimmer, without spending above £100 look at the spec, as this trimmer is up to the majority of trimming jobs in your garden, shrubs, hedges, with a 14mm cut width its well worth the investment, you will not regret it, colin

Cuts well and batteries last around an hour which is very good, also very fast charge time, the only down side to it is it's quite heavy especially on full extension, it is better with the strap fitted but still heavy, I am 6 foot tall and fairly fit but still found it heavy
