In terms of the pole saw attachment, this boasts a 20cm Greenworks bar and chain. Adjusting the angle of the head is done differently too – instead of squeezing a button, you pull a lever, making it much faster and more convenient to re-angle the head. Again, this is more than what many other hedge trimmers offer. The head tilts to seven different positions, with a total range of 105°.
This is the longest blade of all of the hedge trimmers that I tested – ideal for people who either want to get the job done quickly or have a lot of hedges to trim. The hedge trimming head comes with a 51cm laser cut blade. All you need to do is swap over the cutting head pole to change which head you use, and this means that you’ll be able to tackle both hedges and trees with one tool. The fact that this is a two-in-one product would be a big appeal for many. With the extension bar in, the hedge trimmer reaches up to 2.1m while the pole saw extends to 2.4m. I would usually use a dedicated pole saw for this task, so I was eager to see how this two-in-one tool would handle the job.Īssembling this hedge trimmer is simple – all you need to do is slot the two halves together, with or without the extension pole. While the growth on the trees was only 1-2 years old, some of the branches were still thicker than the beech hedge. Since this hedge trimmer comes with a pole saw attachment too, I put it to work on some of my sycamore trees as well. I dedicated a section of beech hedge to each of the hedge trimmers that I tested, including the Greenworks Cordless Pruner and Long Reach Hedge Trimmer 2 in 1, so that I could make fair comparisons. My garden is home to several mature beech hedges that haven’t been pruned for a few years, meaning that some of those branches were pretty thick and strong. Read our product testing methodology here. This is a brand that focuses on providing green alternatives to traditional garden tools, meaning that all of their products are battery-powered.Īs a result, I had high expectations for the Greenworks Cordless Pruner and Long Reach Hedge Trimmer 2 in 1 – in many ways, it certainly sounds superior to its competition, but does it act the part too? However, Greenworks is a little different. This range will be further expanded in the coming years.Most of the cordless hedge trimmers out there are created by brands that also sell alternatives powered by petrol or mains electricity. You can also use the hedge trimmer batteries in more than 11 other Greenworks 60 VOLT garden machines such as a lawn mower, blower and chainsaw etc. The charging time of a 2.0 Ah battery is 60 minutes, 4.0 Ah battery 120 minutes and the 6.0Ah battery 180 minutes. The working time with a 2.0Ah battery is about 40 minutes, with a 4.0Ah battery about 80 minutes and with a 6.0Ah battery about 120 minutes. The batteries are equipped with 4 LED lights which indicate the amount of energy still present in the battery.Ī 4.0Ah battery has a longer working time, which is about double that of a 2.0Ah battery.Ī 6.0 Ah battery can be used up to three times longer than a 2.0 Ah battery. You can equip the hedge trimmer with a 60 VOLT 2.0Ah, 4.0Ah or 6.0Ah battery. The hedge trimmer comes without battery and charger. The 60 VOLT Lithium ION batteries ensure a very long working time.
The handle is adjustable 90 degrees (to the left and right), making it very easy to cut hedges. The 60 VOLT Lithium ION batteries ensure a very long operating time with extremely high cutting speed. You then have a knife that cuts both the top and bottom. The knives are laser cut, diamond cut, made of steel and have a double action.
The hedge trimmer's dual action saw blade length is 60 cm. Using no fuel means no exhaust fumes, so also environmentally friendly pruning. Just figure out what it will save you if you no longer have to buy expensive fuel. The big advantage of working cordlessly with a hedge trimmer is of course no extension cords, much less noise, low maintenance costs and no fuel consumption.
