Hedge Trimmers & Strimmers

What is the best hedge trimmer to buy?

The best hedge trimmer is the one that suits your needs the most. If you have tall hedges that are difficult to maintain because of their height, consider a long-reach trimmer.

Or perhaps you might have a large garden with lots of grass to cut, in which you might need a specific grass trimmer with a long battery life. We also have a range of lightweight, handheld hedge trimmers and strimmers which are perfect for maintaining smaller gardens.

What size hedge trimmer should I get?

If you want to maintain taller hedges and trees, choose a hedge trimmer with a long reach - ideally one that can trim up to 3.5, in height. For smaller garden jobs, a handheld trimmer should be the right size.

For grass cutting, find a grass trimmer with a wider cutting width - usually, one up to 25cm in width is sufficient.

Are battery-powered hedge trimmers any good?

If you need a lightweight hedge trimmer and strimmer that's easy to use, battery-powered options are a great choice. These hedge cutters tend to be a lot simpler to handle and make less noise than their more powerful alternatives. Battery-powered hedge trimmers are good for those with smaller gardens or easier jobs that don't require much effort. You can also find battery-powered cutters with chargers included, so you don't have to worry about replacing the batteries constantly.

On the other hand, if you have thick hedges, or a lot of greenery to maintain in your garden, you may prefer to use a more powerful petrol trimmer.
