This hedge trimmer is amazing! It's easy to assemble and the battery charged up in no time. The pole extends to reach the high shrubs/trees that I normally trimmed using a footstool by hand or with an electric trimmer. This battery lasted through all the trimming and still shows 3/4 charge left after about 30 minutes or so of use. It's nicely balanced and easy to use and includes a shoulder strap. It cuts through weeds, brush and all the shrubbery. Now I don't have to worry about dragging a cord along and it reaches everything high and low. This is a quality product and comes with a blade shield, goggles, gloves, carry strap, battery and quick charger. Everything I need and it's a great addition to my yard tools.
