Best thing about the bosh is that it is extremely light and it does not shake your wrists to fatigue which the cabled ones will. You can cut a lot of hedge in one go, I had a black and decker one once, 20 minutes going at it and your arms were busted.

Why are you asking for advice here when you can read reviews online... and then why are you buying in B&Q when it will be cheaper online/Screwfix?Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Make sure you got the power4all one. the batteries are interchangeable over a range of tools and they are 18 volts, they last longer. I think some of the slightly cheaper ones are 12 volts and are not as powerful.Originally posted by Gumbo Robot View PostYou've convinced me.
