While it’s in action, it’s not a particularly noisy machine – I would say that it’s one of the quietest hedge trimmers that I have ever used. It also boasts some great safety features – even someone who was hedge trimming for the first time would be able to safely and confidently use it. Reach aside, I was very pleased with the power behind this machine. You get about 45 minutes of runtime with a 2.0aH battery, which is actually pretty impressive! Even better, this isn’t an overly noisy machine either – it’s ideal if you need to trim a hedge that’s in close proximity to your neighbours. One further thing to consider when buying a telescopic hedge trimmer is how small it compacts down. Most telescopic trimmers, even when not extended, can still be quite long (somewhere in the region of 170 cm).

Choose a battery-powered pole hedge trimmer for convenience – there’s no cable and you can go anywhere in the garden. Most battery-powered trimmers have sufficient power to handle standard garden hedges. Look for a battery life of at least 30 minutes. A meticulously crafted tool that embodies the artistry of handmade precision, elevating your pizza-cutting experience to new heights. Handmade in the picturesque region of Yorkshire, this pizza cutter is not just a kitchen utensil; it's a testament to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Models with a long battery life can be more expensive, but it’s often good advice to spend slightly more at the start rather than end up frustrated with a trimmer that cuts out after 20 minutes. Interchangeable Batteries Worx is a budget-friendly brand known for producing quality garden tools and, after having used several of their products myself, I can personally attest to that. So, I was hoping that the Worx WG252E.9 18V Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer, which promises to be ideal for high and wide hedges, would be equally impressive.If the batteries are interchangeable, you can buy a trimmer of the same make, and extend the running time of your trimmer by transferring the batteries between compatible products.

Seeing as this is a corded hedge trimmer, I was a bit limited on where I could use it. Even with an enormously long 10 metre power cable, it wouldn’t reach outside the front wall of my property. Even so, it made short work of trimming my Japanese maple tree and other climbing plants in my garden. We can offer a paid service to build and deliver your BBQ. Please call us first, to discuss your requirements. The main advantages of cordless hedge trimmers are their manoeuvrability and their weight. They can be taken anywhere because you’re not tethered to a plug, and they can be used for prolonged periods without causing fatigue. I’ve learned that the most effective way to control a heavy long reach hedge trimmer is with a good set of handles, which the GE-HH 18/45 has. The rear handle isn’t the best designed, but you can set it to four different angles to suit the task at hand. The huge front “D” handle makes things much easier to control, and there’s a shoulder strap too. Delivery - Goods are priced in UK sterling.

From the plastic blade guards to the dead man’s switch to the electric chain brake on the pole saw attachment, Greenworks has made this tool safe for even a newbie to operate. Due to this trimmer’s one-piece folding body and ultralight frame, I’ve reached for it more than the rest for any odd jobs around the garden. Thankfully, that extra power doesn’t translate to more noise. You should still wear ear defenders for your own safety, but, at 96dB, this tool won’t bother your neighbours too much! Noise: Telescopic hedge trimmers typically range from 80 – 95 dB in noise levels, so any models that produced more than this were rated down. Exceptionally quiet models were given higher marks in this category, as these models ensure you don’t annoy your neighbours! Telescopic pole hedge trimmers also tend to have adjustable ‘head’ positions, so you can cut at several different angles too.
