Good tool, nice reach, not too heavy and powerful enough for most jobs. I have a petrol Stihl for anything tougher, but it's heavier and noisier. The Makita is not tiring to use.

Absolutely brilliant, I cut a substantially sized privet and holy hedge with ease.

This thing is incredible. It takes the batteries I have for my Makita drills from 2015 and on a full charge I expect to get 40 minutes of constant hedge trimming. The strap that comes with it is good for taking some of the weight, and it’ll take on some big branches but probably nothing over around 2cms in diameter. I wish I had bought it years ago, it gets through the hedge so quickly with a very neat finish. The adjustable angle on the neck is incredibly helpful, and the build quality is just superb. Typical Makita, cannot recommend enough.

Great piece of kit. Cuts through my hedges with ease. Quite heavy but easy to use with the supplied strap.

The safety cut off time is a too low, If you stop to sneeze and try to reuse then you have to switch it on again. I pressed the on button about 20 times over the course of 1 hour. Apart from that its a great bit of kit highly recommend and very happy with it.

Suprisingly lightweight & well balanced hedge trimmer that allowed me to cut a tall beech hedge with ease. The only very minor gripe would be the automatic power off within a couple of seconds of pausing the cutting process. No big deal but a tad annoying after a while. Definitely recommend it.

High quality. Used for first time on my hedges and trees. Cuts easily through branches. Strap easy to use, easy to clean. Great for high up cuts.
