For the money this is an amazing purchase!

This Black & Decker 17-inch corded hedge trimmer can trim branches up to 5/8-inch thick.The stainless steel teeth on this trimmer are not as sharp as I would like but so far has not been an issue. You just have to cut a little bit slower so it does not get jammed up.  There is a 2 year limited warranty that comes with this. Because this is a corded trimmer keep an eye on your cord when trimming. This guy will slice right thru it.

For the price you can not go wrong with this. If you are looking for something to do some monthly maintenance in your yard this is ideal.  The Black & Decker Hedge trimmer is so lightweight and compact it made my work go by quickly and easily. I like how easily I can hold and handle this hedge trimmer and get my clean,crisp straight lines I like.
