Product Description

Garden Groom "Midi" Collecting Hedge Trimmer The Garden Groom is the world's only cutting, shredding and collecting hedge trimmer. The Garden Groom vacuums the clippings as you go, so there are no more clippings to pick up after trimming. It reduces trimming chores time by up to 40%. The shredded clippings automatically collect in the on-board container. T The Garden Groom includes a volume collection bag for big jobs. The shredded clippings are ideal for gardens and composting. It is constructed from high impact plastic materials resulting in its weighing only 6 pounds. High quality stainless steel blades never need sharpening and resist corrosion. The revolutionary concealed blade virtually eliminates the cutting of the power cord Garden Groom trimmers feature a recessed steel blade for safe operation. And they mulch as they cut, for easy disposal or composting. Trimmings go into the built-in receptacle; for large amounts, attach the flexible tube and bag. Two-handed operation provides stability and allows for horizontal or vertical use. High-impact plastic. Garden Groom Midi is perfect for most home use Features: Only 3 in 1 collecting hedge trimmer Cuts, shreds and collects Collects clippings Shredding action 10:1 Ultra Lightweight Saves time Ideal for shaping Includes volume collection bag

1.0 out of 5 stars Garden Groom - Waste of time., September 18, 2006

I purchased a Garden Groom MIDI and after two uses it has broken. The item is constructed mainly of plastic parts and just won't stand up to any sort of use. In additon, there is no warranty on the item -- so if it breaks -- you are just stuck with it. I would not recommend buying this item.

The idea of a rotary, safe, mulching hedge-trimmer is great. The letdown is the durability and performance. After two weeks of use the plastic central spindle broke. In addition, it is obviously designed for the less robust hedges of the U.K. and not the woody, thick-leaved ficus, ixora, carissa etc. of the Gulf States. It reminds me of Renault cars, fine for Europe but when equipped with power windows, power steering, air-conditioner (i.e. standard for U.S. cars) the electrical systems proved unreliable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Will not work well on firmer hedges, September 9, 2006

By 

Seinor Gardener (Florida) - See all my reviews

I just purchased the Garden Groom Hedge Clipper. I found it very heavy and awkward to use once it filled up with clippings. On most hedges, other than the softer ones, it will not cut well. One has to make too many passes back and forth to get it to cut properly. Great idea and safe to operate, but not worth the effort. Cutting after awhile is extremely tiring, especially when you have to reach across the hedge and extend your arms for any length of time. I do not recommend it for seniors.
