Bought it on Sunday and it arrived on Wednesday. I used it on my hedges that day and it worked great. It didn't have enough power for the thickest lower branches, but it had plenty of power for shaping and trimming the hedges.

We've owned this trimmer for four years. I take it out, cut & shape my bushes, and put it back in the box for next time. It's always cut through everything I've asked of it, except a few branches from overgrowth left over from fall that I didn't get to til spring, but even then it got all but three or four real thick branches that I just cut off with a saw. Nice little trimmer especially for the lady who has a lot of trimming to do. The weight is easy to bear so you can keep going.

This trimmer does the trick for simple shaping and trimming. I am happy with it for the price. Just call me Edward Scissorhands now!

The only reason I deduct 2 stars is despite its small size it's still heavy and hurts you arm and hand. There is no way to luck the power on and you have to keep your finger pressed which also hurts finger after few minutes.

Bought this as a gift. Unfortunately, recipient already has hedge trimmer. However, I've owned the same brand/model hedge trimmer for several years. Works like a charm. I'll keep the new one for future use.

Pretty good product.
I used it a lot for many kinds of bushes, dead and alive. It doesn't cut well through thick branches, but then again, it's not designed to do that.
In summary, the trimmer met my expectations and I would recommend this to a friend.

This hedge trimmer does exactly what I wanted it to do, trim hedges perfectly. It's not too heavy and just the right length.

After all the great reviews I couldn't not buy it. As expected it works great. The only problem I have is that I wasn't paying attention and ruined a $50.00 extension cord. Now I keep a better eye on the cord.

We only have a few bushes but they definatly did the job These were established bushes that have fairly thick branches that were handled easily.

Purchased this from Amazon to replace my old Black & Decker hedge trimmer that finally bit the dust after many years of use. The length is just perfect and it cuts beautifully. Had no problems whatsoever. It will probably get a good workout this year since we've been having so much rain this spring. UPDATE: Lasted one season and quit working!
