With such a varied choice of hedge trimmers to pick from, which would suit you the best?
Read on for an overview of the options available to help decide.
Cordless Hedge Trimmers
The performance of cordless hedge trimmers, both the hedge trimmer itself and the rechargeable batteries, has improved to the point where they are nearly unrecognisable when compared to equipment used in the past.
The absence of a power cable in these machines is a significant benefit since it improves safety by removing the possibility of accidentally severing the power cord.
It is also possible to achieve the versatility of a petrol hedge cutter, despite the fact that there is significantly less noise and pollution as a result of the batteries’ provision of clean electricity.
In addition, there is no noticeable drop in performance, since the exceptionally sharp blades and robust rechargeable batteries produce outstanding results when used for trimming.
Electric Hedge Trimmers
Electric hedge trimmers have been providing services to gardens of all shapes and sizes for a number of years now, and as their level of performance has grown, they have gained favour over the noisier petrol hedge trimmers.
In many situations, a petrol hedge trimmers of lesser quality will be outperformed by a high-quality electric equivalent, which will leave a nicer finish and allow the operator to experience less fatigue.
If you simply cut your hedges on an infrequent basis, you should be fine with a medium-sized electric machine because it is more than adequate. However, if you routinely trim your hedges and have a large amount of work to accomplish, you may need a high-quality electric model; constructed with better motors and even more robust materials, they are able to perform frequently without failing.
Long Reach Pruners & Trimmers
The long reach hedge trimmers is a necessary piece of equipment for any garden owner who has hedges reaching to head height or higher. This equipment will not only save you time and energy, but it will also improve safety while working in your garden.
When you use a traditional hedge trimmer, you have little choice but to stretch over your head in order to cut tall hedging, which may be a very taxing experience. On the other hand, if your hedges are more than 8 feet tall, you will need to climb a ladder in order to reach the top foliage, which is not an ideal situation even in the best of circumstances.
However, if you have a long-reach hedge trimmers, you may remain securely planted on the ground as you trim your hedges. The exceptionally sharp blades of these machines allow them to effortlessly cut through stubborn annual growth.
They are user-friendly and well-balanced, with a shoulder harness carrying the machine’s weight so that you can focus on the task at hand.
Petrol Hedge Trimmers
The petrol hedge trimmers is the tool of choice when significant volumes of hedge trimming are required, and it is offered in two separate styles: double-sided and single-sided.
This is a reference to the style of the blade, and the consensus among experts is that a double-sided blade is the superior option in the vast majority of situations, especially when it comes to trimming home hedges.
In the appropriate hands, a double-sided hedge trimmer with a reciprocating blade is an easy-to-use, precise instrument that can meet nearly all hedge-cutting requirements. Blade lengths can vary, but in most situations, a blade that is roughly 50 cm long delivers the best balance while yet being long enough to get the job done.
If you have a lot of hedge cutting to accomplish, a single-sided hedge cutter with a long blade might be the way to go; they are built so that you can just go up and down the length of the hedgerow without stopping.
