I replied saying I would never buy anything from them again and would urge others to do the same. Sending this review is at least one way to warn against this company’s after sales service. What particularly annoyed me is the way they simply refused to get involved or give me any practical help regarding their own product.All of this, together with the generous 10-metre power lead that is supplied, means this trimmer is ideal for cutting hedges of almost any height and at any angle without the twisting, stooping and bending or wobbling on ladders that you’d normally have with traditional inferior hedge trimmers.

You only need to use these products a few times a year so it was certainly not overworked when I turned it on in early October 2023, only to find it didn’t start. There is no helpful manual to turn to, so I started testing the electricity supply. In the end I was disappointed, but not surprised, to discover that the switch was not working, just like the first one.
