GARDEN GROOM GARDEN-BARBER CORDLESS COLLECTING HEDGE & SHRUB SHAPER

Garden Groom have made the most of the latest Lithium-Ion battery technology to produce an ultra-lightweight cordless hedgetrimmer that offers the sort of performance you’d expect from a mains-powered machine, but with none of the restrictions of a potentially dangerous power-cord. Perfect for cutting-back, shaping and deadheading, the Garden Groom Garden-Barber Cordless Collecting Hedge & Shrub Shaper collects clippings as you work. This not only saves a great deal of time and effort, but also keeps the hedge free of growth-inhibiting cuttings. After collection, hedge-clippings are sent through an integrated shredder, which reduces them at a rate of 10:1, producing a material ideal for composting or mulching. The Garden-Barber’s high-performance 7.2v lithium-ion battery doesn’t have to be empty to be recharged, and it suffers no memory loss (it charges in just five hours, giving a run-time of 30 – 35 minutes). Other key features include a fully concealed blade for maximum user-safety; and a unique removable head, which makes it easy to clean and maintain the blade. This model weighs only 750g, and is supplied with a six-litre collection-bag as standard.
