    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.

            You've convinced me. Off to Homebase/B&Q later.

                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?

                  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.

                    I wouldn't trust any reviews online.

                    Also homebase do 20% of bosch power tools like every second weekend.

                      For the same reason people ask questions about a whole range of things on here e.g. cars, bikes, stereos etc.
