Neatly-trimmed hedges are a must as we get prepared for summer, but petrol hedge trimmers can be tiring to use unless you are super fit and trailing cables from mains-powered machines are always a worry.
The Greenworks 24v Deluxe Cordless Hedge Trimmer with Twist Handle (2200107-A) uses the latest lithium-ion battery technology to give great power but with no fumes and at a fraction of the weight.
It gives a continuous run time of 35 minutes on a one hour charge and reftains its charge when not in use.
It weighs just 3.3 kg and has 56 cm dual reciprocating blades and the handle rotates through 180 degrees to make it easier to hedge sides and odd shapes.
The trimmer comes with a charger and battery and costs £119.95 and the battery will fit all other 24 Volt Greenworks machines.
We deliver it free the next working day and there is a two year warranty.
When it comes to hedge tops you need a long reach hedge trimmer and this one from the same manufacturer is much lighter and easier to use than petrol-powered ones.
The Greenworks 24v Long Reach Cordless Hedge Trimmer (2200207-A) has a shaft which extends to give a total reach – include – of 2.4 to 3.6 metres including the user.
It weighs only 3.9 kg and has dual reciprocating blades. The head pivots to seven positions to make it easier to get a smooth level finish.
It costs £139.95 and has a two-year maker’s warranty. And we deliver it free the next working day.
