Wonderful I have lots of batteries already, now I have the hedgetrimmer that does what it says on the box, love the triple speed and the variance in all angles, love the way it folds to fit the van. Thank you Makita, also Powertool world.

This is a great hedge trimmer. It's very powerful although this does also depend on the battery condition. The 3 speeds is a must. At high speeds the cutters will skim over branches so require a slow speed to allow the cutters to get a grip on the branches and so cut them off. Being new, the blades were razor sharp, so the cutting was easy. The faster speeds were great for tackling the leaves and outer small stems.

£300+ was a big investment but having many of the other Makita 18v LXT tools i.e. batteries made the decision easier; we have a lot of hedges and I was desperate for something that's quicker, cuts through thicker branches and aids with reach... The Makita DUN500WZ is absolutely amazing and worth every penny! I have just the 3.oAh batteries and they last plenty for me, it cuts through everything (haven't needed to use the reverse function yet!), it cuts beautifully straight and being able to adjust the cutting angle is just fantastic. Can't recommend this tool enough and I expect it to last many years with good maintenance. 5*****

Fast delivery. Makita cordless Hedge Trimmer. Sharp, powerful, lightweight, long reach. Got Makita tools already so have 4 batteries. I’ve got massive leylandii hedge, went through it like butter. On number 3 speed you’ll get around 45 mins to 1 hr run time. No more noise, no mixing petrol, no stalling, starts immediately. Cannot go wrong, lovely piece of kit.
