I had never owned electric hedge trimmers before. I grew up using hand clippers and being a creature of habit I never upgraded. Finally, this season I was too overwhelmed to even attempt cutting back the hedges and bushes around my house in that old manner. Researching products on-line the 2450 model stuck out as the "best workhorse" for the buck. This 2455 trimmer is basically the same unit but with a rotating handle.

I can't get over how well this unit cuts through the woody growth of my old hollies and camellias. It is lightweight and well balanced. I needed this unit "yesterday" so I purchased it at the local Lowe's, which had the same price as Amazon.

This unit works very well for me, I highly recommend it.
I kick myself now for all the years I stuck with those old hand clippers!

This thing just took down my overgrown and unruly hedges like a knife through warm butter. I had my eye on the HT512 (only 2" shorter but with more power and a lower price) or the very popular HH2450 (currently the best reviewed on the web), but after popping into a Home Depot and hefting these things, I was sold on this one.

This model is basically the HH2450 with a new swivel handle, which allows you to turn the blade and handle 90 degrees left or right, which makes transitioning from trimming the top of the hedge to the side of the hedge a real breeze. I have long hedges and spend as much time trimming the sides of the hedges as I do the top, which with every other trimmer I've seen, makes for a pretty awkward hold. With the swivel feature, it's just as comfortable trimming vertically as it is horizontally. This is a nice upgrade to an already very solid trimmer-

Works great on my Bottle Brush Hedge. The Bottle Brush grows so fast that I need the 3/4 inch cutting capacity. Packaging is not strong enough to withstand UPS or Fedex transport. Cutter came bent but was able to straighten it out. Amazon price was better any other place.
