Hedge Trimmer Main Review<\/h2>\n
We have completed a full review just below, and we have concentrated on the key features that you should consider before buying this model.<\/p>\n
Value for Money<\/h3>\n
This is sold with battery and charger, so as we mentioned earlier, so this is excellent value for money. With a lot of the other trimmers you have to buy a battery and charger separately, so this is quite an advantage.This complete trimmer package is on average \u00a3120. Also, going forward, if you like to own and use high quality tools like Worx, then a whole range of cordless tools can be used with the same battery and charger.At this price then, you have to think this is very reasonable.<\/p>\n
Battery Life<\/h3>\n
This model takes a 18V\/20V battery and that gives it a bit of extra power. The battery supplied looks small but will give you around 60 minutes of trimming and it takes an hour to charge back up again.On the whole this might be perfectly fine if you have a small hedge and I know this is not one of the most expensive models but I would still like to get at least an hour to 90 minutes from any of these trimmers. It is also worth noting that the battery you get with this can be used on all Worx Lithium-Ion range tools.<\/p>\n
Ease of Use<\/h3>\n
This trimmer is equipped with 2 handed operation switch; the motor will only be activated when the switch and top handle are engaged. Once you have mastered this then it’s just press and go, couldn’t be any easier. The blade is double sided and will cut through your hedge with ease both ways.<\/p>\n
We found that this hedge trimmer will easily cut until you get up to branches around 1.9cm in diameter and that’s bigger than most standard hedge trimmers. After that you will need to use a saw or lopper. The Spear and Jackson Telescopic Lopper<\/a> is particularly good for that type of heavier branch work.<\/p>\nImportant Basic Features<\/h3>\n
Most people just want a trimmer that will take care of their hedges. The beauty of a cordless hedge trimmer is that you can use it anywhere, and you never have to worry about accidentally cutting through another electric lead again. (If you have ever done that, you know what we mean!)<\/p>\n
The Blade<\/strong><\/p>\nThe blade length on this is 61cm (just over 24″) so longer than the standard width and big enough for most hedges. The blade is sharp and coated to stop it from sticking, and the blades are very easy to replace should you ever need to.<\/p>\n
The Cutting Stroke Speed<\/strong><\/p>\nAt 1,350 strokes per minute, this is fast and will quickly trim hedges. This trimmer cuts on both sides which you will find extremely handy.<\/p>\n
The Battery Life<\/strong><\/p>\nWe have already explained this above, but Worx hedge trimmers have one of the best battery life of any of the branded hedge trimmers.<\/p>\n
What Features Make this a Better Choice?<\/h3>\n
There are lots of these cordless hedge trimmers on the UK market. So what makes this one different from the rest?<\/p>\n
Great Build and Construction<\/strong><\/p>\nWhen you think of good quality tools then Worx will definitely be one of the makers that comes to mind. This hedge trimmer is superb quality in every way and all at a bargian price. The casing is strong, sturdy and built to last. The stain free shear blade is nickel plating with a high anti-abrasion surface for long lasting coating.<\/p>\n
<\/strong><\/p>\nCompatible with other Worx Power Tools<\/strong><\/p>\nIf you have a range of Worx tools then you will know all about their batteries. This battery fits 120 other machines , from hedge trimmers and chainsaws to combi drills and jig saws. The combination of highest quality cells and advanced electronic management leads to higher energy storage density, faster recharge, longer runtime and longer lifetime compared to standard Lithium batteries<\/p>\n
Our Verdict on the Worx Hedge Trimmer<\/h2>\n
It’s very hard to look past this Worx cordless hedge trimmer. Most buyers got this to replace an old petrol model and they were amazed at how well it worked. The battery is brilliant, it is a two handed operation that cuts on both sides and will go through branches up to 1.9cm.<\/p>\n
It is suited to small or medium sized garden hedges as it will cut for around 60 minutes, depending on the style and thickness. This will suit a lot of users but I would need a bit more cutting time myself.I can recommend this model for ease of use and cutting capability. Also the build quality is great, just make sure that cutting time is long enough for you<\/p>\n
