We carry a wide selection of both electric and petrol powered hedgecutters by manufacturers Alko, Bosch, Gardena, Mountfield, Shibaura, Stihl and Tanaka.
For lighter duty work the electric machines are convenient and light to use. This type of machine will typically cope with branches of 13 - 20mm diameter (some claim to be capable of cutting up to 34mm branches but we would recommend purchasing a petrol machine for this work as the drive gears are much more substantial). They require little maintenance but are hindered in use by the mains cable and the need for a convenient electricity supply. It is always recommended that an RCD safety device be used with these machines.
Prices range from £29.95 to 119.95.
The Alko HE450 (pictured middle right) is priced at £49.95 - The Alko machines feature a special safety cable which cannot be cut by the hedgecutter blades (a problem encountered by many a customer!)
Cordless or battery powered machines are suitable for light cutting but limited by battery life, Bosch offer a wide range of machines in both cordless and mains electric. Their new Lithium battery machines are priced at £69.99 for the AHS41 (41cm)and £89.99 for the AHS52 (52cm) which has two batteries.
For the gardener who requires a heavier duty machine, the petrol machines generally offer more robust blades and gearboxes and are suitable for more prolonged use. The better quality machines can cope with branches of over 25mm diameter.
We offer a range of over 15 petrol hedgetrimmers including the Stihl and Tanaka ranges.
Prices of the quality petrol machines range from £219.00 to £495.00
The Tanaka THT2000 (pictured top right) is our most popular model and has a top quality 22cc engine with 20" cut at £219.00
Our range price lists, which include brief specifications can be downloaded using the buttons (left hand side of page).
Pole Hedgecutters are increasingly popular for high and awkward hedges. The cutting heads can usually be adjusted through a range of angles and they are a safe and convenient alternative to balancing on a ladder or constructing scaffolding.
We stock a wide range of machines with prices starting at £349 for the better quality machines. We are now offering the Mitox 265LRH priced at £219 but can only recommend this for light use!
Hedgetrimmer attachments can also be fitted to standard brushcutters or can be purchased as part of a combi-system where one engine unit can be used for, strimming / brushcutting, hedgecutting, pruning and lawn edging.
One of the most popular options is to buy the Tanaka TBC230 Brushcutter at £229 and the pole hedgecutter attachment THT200 at £209 giving you a high quality dual purpose product at a reasonable price.
