    Anyone here have a long reach petrol hedge trimmer. Any recommendations as to make, model, pros, cons etc would be much appreciated.

    Have a few through work.
    They are grand but a tiresome thing if your using it for long.

    The hedge trimming is fine. The small chainsaw attachment is a bit springy when using it but handy for Lobbing branches.

    Have Kawasaki, Ama and still motors with the Ama being the less reliable as you’d expect.

    Have the Honda multi tool here grand job for the bit I use it. I have the short hedge trimmer attachment so light enough.
    I have whins/furse to cut at the minute and I'm looking at the chainsaw attachment for it to save me bending.

    If you are near power there is an electric one that comes up in Aldi.
    Not expensive and guaranteed.
