DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Pole Hedge Trimmer (Tool Only)

Head is not stable.. because pole and head have backlash

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Safety first, the most dangerous thing about battery powered tools is their bite is much worse than their bark. Just because it is not loud doesn’t mean it can not remove fingers. Please be careful. Does it cut? yes big stuff, and little stuff this tool will cut it. I jammed the blade cutting a larger limb, I removed the battery, pryed the blade to move it and was back in business. I set the unit on a vise and put a charged 4Ah batttery (1 year old) and clamped down the trigger. It ran for an hour, straight, then I took the tool out and cut shrubs with it. There was no battery heat. The motor however was too hot to touch-not really a suprise given the run time. The tool fits in hand well given the fact that it designed to do a job at arms length.

Very lightweight with excellent cutting ability and dependability.

Heavy and not balanced Overall cuts bushes

This device is great”¦ makes the trimming of bushes and small trees much easier. The battery lasts a good amount of time, but I did have to use 2 of them for everything in my yard (which is quite a lot),

Purchased unit and used immediately.this is very sharp.cut my hand pulling sheath off.lol.worked great.unit it rather heavy for an old man but did notice when I took out the 2ah battery and installed the 5ah battery it did help to balance unit.i have only used once but exceeded my expectations.appears to built of quality materials.as of this time I would highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this tool and no longer need a ladder to work on my 9 foot high bushes. This tool is perfect for reaching high bishes without a ladder. The only down side is working on waist high bushes/ shrubs. The head is a bit heavy while working on waist high bushes but other than that. I would highly recommend this tool.

I LIKE IT, AND IT DOES A GREAT JOB. HAD SOME HIGH BUSHES TO TRIM AND IT WORKED GOOD!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One thing I would like to mention before getting into the review is that in my honest opinion i do not think this tool was designed for heavy commercial use. However, if you are a home owner with lots of hedges and youre trimming them every so often or even if you have a few properties with hedges to trim this would be a great tool for the job so please keep that in mind when reading the remainder of the review.It is a dewalt brand tool obviously and in my experience you always get a great product from them. It is well built and designed for the most part, not extremely heavy, it has great reach, the angle is variable and is easy to change on the go. If you are already in the dewalt tool platform you obviously do not need to worry about run time although you will get a good hour or more of run time out of just one battery. I was also very impressed with how smooth the blades run.I would like to mention the breakdown and storage of it. The tool comes apart in the middle so it can be stored or carried in two relatively equal sized pieces and it could fit in the tool box of a truck fairly easy depending on the size of your tool box. It is also assembled back together very easily.Now, I would like to mention a con of the product. The blade head does have a lot of “play” or wiggle in it. When held out at a distance and shaken a little there is a significant amount of movement. Is this a problem? Most of the time I do not think so. For one thing, you arent going to be shaking it back and forth when cutting with it and the resistance the hedges put into the tool when cutting will keep it still. Also (as with any tool) practice and use over time will result in better or more even cuts. Overall I think this is a great tool for homeowners.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The length of this trimmer is great, allowing you to get deep in between hedges, behind, or top of hedges with ease. Also the weight is balanced enough that trimming in the easy to reach areas is also an ease. Blade is sharp and long to which helps me maintain a nice straight line. The swivel head is great and locks in secure, especially at the 90degree positions. Straight out it has a little play but nothing that effects my work. No more getting scratched up reaching for tough areas!
