Awesome power, heavy
This thing is unstoppable! I’ve burned up two name brand hedgers trying to keep my Indian hawthorn hedge under control. This baby just cuts right through. Spec says 1/2 inch, easily that and more. Didn’t jam or stop once and allowed me to finally get the hedge down to the base size I’ve been trying to accomplish for years. No hacking, just clean cutting as I passed the blade through the thick of it. The dual handles have to be gripped tightly to keep the safeties engaged, but you get used to it. The only negative I’ve seen so far is weight. This beast is heavy! Your forearms and wrists get quite a workout. I kept taking breaks to rake up to give my arms a rest. Even being heavy, I would highly recommend this tool. If you’re smaller, elderly, or infirm, you may want to consider a lighter unit, but if you can wield this hedger, you won’t be disappointed in its raw cutting power.
