20V Cordless Hedge Trimmer, 51cm Blade, 2x Batteries & Charger

Excellent purchase. Really light and easy to use. Has made trimming the hedges so much easier. Battery run time is very good too. Good value for money. Would definitely recommend.

My corded hedge trimmer gave up the ghost after some 25+ years of hard work, in all those years I only ever cut the cable once by mistake. So when looking for a replacement I did consider another cable unit but weight was the deciding factor. They are just too heavy to use for long periods the older you get. This item is lightweight, easy to handle and having used it today it cuts as well as the corded one it replaces. Not sure what the battery life is exactly but it did a hedge that was about twelve feet long, four feet high and grossly overgrown, in its stride with not a stutter. It came with two batteries and I bought a third so that as one goes down it can go on charge and with the three in rotation you are ready for a lot of hedge trimming in a day. I have found it can’t cut 15mm thick stems, well not easily, but I never thought it would. All in all it’s not a bad buy, but only time and use will tell and my main concern is that you will be unable to source replacement batteries for it in the long term but then the big name brand’s have the same issues and change the battery design to get you to buy again. I’m happy with it, so far, it is easy to use and not a bad price for what you get.

Brilliant, I bought it to replace it's predecessor which just stopped working for no obvious reason. They have always been reliable and being battery powered there is no electric lead for me to cut through. The power and the cutting strength is superb and have no hesitation in recommending it.

My garden was very overgrown and I did a lot of research on which item to buy to trim it back. I was thinking I'd need a chainsaw, but they scare me. The Terratek trimmer is a great compromise and has done the job really well. The length of the blade makes it easy to hack through the undergrowth and reach places you wouldn't be able to get to so easily with a shorter blade. It's fairly light to use and has a good safety mechanism, whereby you have to hold it with two hands and press down on two different switches to get the blades to work. Obviously you still need to be really careful but I felt quite safe using it. It was great using sweeping movements through the thicket but it was also precise enough to cut individual branches or strands of bindweed. When my trimmer arrived I noticed that one of the batteries wouldn't charge. There is a little button on the battery that lights up three LEDs to indicate the amount of charge and this button didn't work either. The other battery was fine. I emailed customer services on the day my trimmer arrived (Saturday) and received a response on Monday morning, as they only work Mon-Fri. They posted out a new battery, which I received on Wednesday and that battery works just fine. I think this is excellent customer service! Overall I'm very pleased with the trimmer and I would definitely recommend it. It won't go through large branches, so if your garden is as overgrown as mine then you might need to use a saw on those, but if it does the bulk of the work and saves me from having to use a chainsaw them I'm very happy with that!

Was fantastic first 6 cuts then started smoking so stopped disappointing as was great when working
