Bosch Electric Hedge Cutter EasyHedgeCut 45 (420 W, Blade Length 45 cm, in Carton Packaging)

* Physical I have used one of these before. The previous model, Bosch, was my father's. He bought it second-hand. I do not know how long the previous owner had this device. The combined ownership in my father's hands and mine is currently at least TWO decades before the second-hand Bosch died on me. This new one has the same lightweight, quality feel. It's easy to handle as it's balanced in your hands. The cabling on this is longer than that of my previous model. I still recommend you get a cable extension reel to extend its range of usage. If you feel hard done by having to buy this cable reel just for this, think it will help you hoover your car and mow your lawn? * First looks It came within 24 hours. i saved £15. I decided to set up a three-year warranty. To do so you're required to surf the Bosch website. I entered into this online warranty form, two serial codes. These two codes are on the box it came in. One has a single letter in its number code. This other has just a string of 9 numbers only. Then I printed out and scanned my Amazon bill and uploaded it in the form as part of my three-year guarantee warranty. This proof of payment is uploaded at the end of the creation of the warranty and then if it is sorted, you can download and print the tailored to your customer warranty document for safekeeping. Bosch recommends you download and print this out. I would then staple the warranty and the bill of sale together and keep it somewhere safe. * What is it like to live with? These cutters are great. I recommend the application of a lubricant - such as WD-40 - to the blades. It's a good idea to apply this every time you use these cutters. It's a mild lubricant and cleaner of crusty grud. Not designed to replace dedicated oil lubricants. This one is cheaper, and i.m.h.o, just as good as the own-brand Bosch spray-on lubricant. I say this with confidence. As I used this same spray on this same Bosch model hedge cutter and it lasted over two decades! Please note, this Bosch hedge cutter is loud when you're using it. If the hedges are wet, I suggest you wait for a dry day. They can cut more than fresh growth. It's easy to cut verticle and horizontal level cuts on well-established hedges. Not all cutters can do this on strong growth. The way it is not too heavy helps when using it. It has a plastic scabbard to protect the blades when required to put it in storage for winter. * Any tips? My sister put me onto working with hedge cutting. Instead of putting it off and then having a single, major hacking of the hedges back, trim the hedges every few weeks or so. Why? It's easier to carry out these minor trimming operations than to do a big chop all at once of the hedges. You don't have bin loads of waste to deal with. And each time, this has more control over the overall tidiness of these hedges. And takes much less time than a major hack. So you're less likely to put it off. And you're more likely to keep on top of them. The blades on this Bosch hedge cutter are the same length as on my previous model. It feels great build quality. Please try not to cut the cable you're powering it with! My dad and I did this a few times! I have discovered that a replacement cable for this hedge cutter can be sourced from Amazon suppliers. So if you must maintain the safest usage of this tool and cut the cable, you can buy one for less than £20. If you don't want to buy a replacement cable, I suggest using a soldering iron, solder, insulation tape, a Stanley knife and Gorilla tape to repair it. * Summary I expected this device to be around £90. This is based on checking with a nearby, well-known physical DIY store. The one spelt with three characters. It's great it's sold on Amazon at a more manageable price.

كيبل الطاقة قصير جدا واستغرب من شركة تعرف أن هذا المنتج يستخدم الاستخدام خارجيا وبالغالب أن مقابس الكهرباء تكون بعيدة أو الشخص يحتاج إلى صعود بعض الأشجار، الكيبل فعليا قصير مما اضطرني إلى شراء توصيلة كهرباء، أيضا جودة القطع ليس كما هو متوقع حيث فقط تقوم بقطع الأوراق الصغيرة جدا أما المتدلية و الطويلة ستجد صعوبة في تشذيبها

Lightweight enough for a 5”3 small woman, and compact (large cat for scale). I have a cherry laurel hedge to trim in a few months but will test out on some weeds in the garden too. I like that it’s mains powered as battery life is an issue with my strimmer.

I got this trimmer because it seemed to be a good combination of functionality and value. It cuts really well and is easy to handle. The benefit is the power is always strong and the price is great. Build quality is good. Sure, it’s a bit inconvenient having the cable, but I only have a small hedge so didn’t want to spend a lot of money. Very happy with it.

Impressed with Bosch so far! I have a Bosch lawnmower that powers through my very thick wild grass in my garden and for the past 3-4 years, has cut it through sun and rain. I have a pretty wild garden in the sense that everything has been left to grow naturally, so have clumps and all sorts of wild grass. I just keep it low cut and trimmed so it looks neat but otherwise leave it au naturel for the wildlife who love it. My Bosch lawnmower never complains even when I drag it through thick mud on wet afternoons. So when I needed a trimmer, I naturally turned to Bosch again. And I love my hedge trimmer! Cuts through normal hedges and even some slightly thicker branches without any issues allowing me to keep my garden looking as though I had paid a professional. Well worth it.
