Out of the box I thought it was cheaply made , I gave it a chance anyways..Light weight , battery had a gd charge out the box.Durable blades chopped 1/4-1/2 in hedge limbs with ease.I really do like the trimmer.No cord to drag around or get in my way, no cut cords, easy to use, does a great job.Runs smooth. Blades are sharp.Easy to manage, can reach around much easier without a cord.I used it to trim my euonymous and rose of sharron.I had no problem with the shrubs the rose of sharron was a bit difficult with some of the seasonal growth thicker branches. It did cut them I was patient and did not rush.Battery life is great I finished before the second battery was out of power.bcharging doesn't take too long.Loaned them to my neighbor he brought them back and said he is going to order one.Gave my corded trimmer to a friend after using the trimmer once.Overall this is an excellent battery powered trimmer especially for the listed price.Recommended.So I'm going to be honest.... I got pretty lazy and let my bush get out of control. My bush got sooo big and disheveled that the neighbors began to whisper. I was embarrassed and ashamed due to how unkept my bush was.Then, as if a light from heaven appeared and this battery powered trimmer arrived! As I tore open the box I gazed upon a well build and lightweight trimmer. The days of being bush shamed was over! I charged the unit and anxiously waited for it to be ready. When I was able to use it I slapped the battery in, got myself in proper bush trimming position and went to town. Pass after pass, trimmings fell to the ground and with each swipe I felt the shame of my bush become something I could now proudly show off!After what felt like an hour of non-stop grooming, low and behold my bush was now complete! It was a sight to behold. The perfect roundness and shape of my bush was now the talk of the town. It was glorious.If you suffer from an embarrassing bush then I implore you to get this trimmer and put the days of bush shaming behind you!I decided to mow the lawn by myself and decided to buy this for trimming hedges and bushes. I'm not handy, when it arrived, I was surprised to see how light weight it is. I tried it for the first time to trim the bush line along the driveway. It turned out to be my favorite tool so far. It's really easy to operate on. As for the battery life, I can't tell yet, but I did get the whole bush line done!
