Einhell Power X-Change 18V Cordless Multifunctional Garden Tool - 2-in-1 Long Reach Hedge Trimmer And Mini Chainsaw / Pruning Saw - GE-HC 18 Li T Solo Pole Hedge Trimmer (Battery Not Included)

The whole thing is easy to assemble not that there is much . Both the trim.er and chainsaw are very sharp and do the job. Really great value for money, it doesn't eat battery life which I was happily surprised about. It is as others say a tad heavy but if you take the time to adjust the strap for balance it's not that bad . I am a wheelchair user & found I could use it , better than some much more expensive brands

Great quality and very good hedge cutting blade. The chainsaw attachment is quite small and leaks oil in my garage, but my biggest issue (and this is probably due to me not using it correctly) is that it is heavy. get your muscles out! Overall, very capable and does a stirling job on the hedges, so can't complain

Bought this to tackle our high hedges we have at home. Which were a struggle with a normal hedge trimmer, though this unit will reach easily over a 2m+ hedge. The extendable pole of this unit is easily adjustable, the blades are very sharp as it just cut through small branches with not much resistance. The chain saw adapter is also very handy for the thicker branches at hight one can't reach. Is a bit weighty for use on longer duration and if you have a bigger garden it's worth getting a additional high capacity battery as found after 1 1/2 hrs it was drained and was far from finished with the hedge. Overall great unit worth the buy

Get the main gripe out of the way:- I looked at several similar products and finally settled on this one. However, what I didn't realise was that this on one it was not possible to create "hand tools" by connecting the battery/motor directly to the cutting heads. You have to have the pole connected and collapsed to its minimum of about 1m. This can be difficult when there are space restrictions between the hedge. and building/ fencing, especially as the angle of rotation of the heads and motor is in the plane of the shaft only, you can't rotate them "sidewards" to effectively create a shorter, more manageable tool. Similarly the handle can only be mounted in the same "plane", not rotated to 90deg to make it more useable held to the side and swung up and down. It really is designed for trimming high areas, ideally those above you with the pole vertical and swung side to side. However this is my mistake from looking at too many products and confusing the capabilities of the different ones.Overall the hedge trimmer works on leylandii branches up to about 5mm easily. Above 5mm it does have a habit of jamming,.The trimmer is quite heavy to use because of having to carry and swing the weight of the full collapsed telescopic pole all the time.The cutting heads are easy to interchange and overall it is probably a very good tool for trimming high growth.

All good. But be warned just a little heavy when fully extended

Solid. Heavier than expected. Easy to assemble. Dont forget to buy chainsaw oil as non supplied.

Used several times now, it is heavy and cumbersome but so will all other brands be. Have put it through some serious usage and it holds up well. Used a 4ah battery and lasted longer than I predicted

Slightly on heavy side but does a fantastic job and saves messing with wires and ladders. Battery seems to last a long time as you would not be using battery for chain saw constantly so longevity is great and quite surprised actually. Simple set up but does require maintenance of course so chainsaw oil for example. Ensure you get safety glasses and hard hat as this extends so anything wood falling from a height doesn’t take you out.
