Bosch Electric Hedge Cutter EasyHedgeCut 45 (420 W, Blade Length 45 cm, Weight: 2.6 kg, in Carton Packaging)

Got this as a used product so expected a little wear and tear on it. Looks like it has hardly had any use at all. A couple of small scratches and some very very small dots of surface rust on the blade and that’s it and the cord looks brand new. Gave it a spray with lubricant for protection. All in all very happy works a treat.

* PhysicalI have used one of these before. The previous model Bosch I owned was my fathers. He got it second-hand. And it still lasted over TWO decades before it 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 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 looksIt 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. 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.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, insulation tape, a Stanley knife and gorilla tape to repair it.* SummaryI 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.

Price and assured good working order. So accepted as seen thankyou.Hole in product box authenticated by driver .would like to think it will have no detriment to its working order.will see when its in use.

There's a reason why my fridge/freezer, washing machine, mower, drills are all by Bosch. I have never had an issue with any of them. The latest edition, hedge trimmer, has been tested and was not found wanting. Quality at a reasonable price.

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.

I'd never used an electric hedge trimmer before, believing that they were both heavy and expensive.However, when I saw the price of this and the make (Bosch), I thought I'd take the plunge and buy it.For those, who like me, have never used a hedge trimmer before, you have a trigger handle and an additional dead-mans handle at the front, for two-handed operation.The principle is similar to the standard safety features found in lawn mowers.You also have a strong safety shield so your hands cannot slip onto the blade. Now, I'm as clumsy as they come, but felt perfectly safe with it.Holding it in both hands, I found it well balanced and fun to use. The long flat blade makes it quick and easy to square off the hedge.I'd definitely recommend it.

I’m pretty sure I have done a review for this already. Good product, works well.
