Rubbish. Straight to landfill product – I left a review on the site I purchased it from, but it seems they don't list 1 or 2 star reviews on their site, so I am here to give my review and… Read more
warn others to stay away.
DO NOT BUY.
Cheap and extremely heavy. Revs at such high speeds which cant be controlled. Instructions and assembly an absolute nightmare to navigate. To top it off, some of the screws to attach the handles and strap were missing from the box.

is my second latest. With the powerful rather bulky 56V battery you would think this is going to be heavy. In reality it is much lighter than my old petrol powered unit. What makes it better still is the perfect balance while using the EGO hedger, something I always cursed with the petrol one for being awkward. It has as much if not more power than my old petrol unit and cuts effortlessly without slowing or seizing which the old one did. I easily do all my edging on one charge which is typically 1/2-1 hour with plenty charge left on a 2.5Amp battery. The batteries work across the product range at various amperages. Cleaning and maintaining is a breeze. Really impressed with EGO and though it is on the pricier side for such equipment, it is worth it.

just maintain and trim, but cut in half right through the wood. I tried my chainsaw but it was very annoying as the chain tends to make the hedge bounce around, rather than cutting.
I literally pulled the trigger on this hedge trimmer, poked it in to the centre of my hedge (which is 1.8 metres tall) and stared pushing it sideways through the wooden branches. It cut right through first time. Success! In just a few seconds I had a section of hedge cut right along the middle.
This ego hedge trimmer for regular hedge maintenance is like using a hot razor blade through melted butter. The hedge just falls away. When you reach a wood part that needs removing this thing has the depth and power to slice through it.
It is well built, and feels solid where it counts. The central motor part is a big block of solid aluminium which gets very hot. This is great because that means it's doing its job of dissipating heat correctly. You will not find cheap abs plastic here.
It has some weight to it, it's not heavy but it most definitely is not light. I'm using a 5.0ah battery.
