Good review, we run three of them, great hedge cutters  all we use.

Regarding the weight ,I have a cheaper 18v version but always end up using my standard batt trimmer and steps for the top of my conifer hedges as its the motor at the end of the blades  that makes them "top heavy" when you are trying to hold it to cut the top part as you are trying to keep it from resting on the growth but at the sane time trying to pressure downwards to cut enough off.With these long reach type you definitely need strong upper body and arm muscles (maybe some gym work before Spring/ Summer arrives!).

What’s the vibration level like on it ? I’m swapping over from my stihl combi tool hedge trimmer as it’s shaking my bones and giving me carpel tunnel so hoping this is much better in terms of vibration

not sure if i want this or a milwaukee

ive just got the 66, really pleased so far, ive yet to run a battery down with solid cutting for 3 hours and in some dense new growth

These are great low entry machines with a fantastic reach and battery runtime.But I've been unlucky and have been through three in the past couple of years.The last one I had about a month before the cutting head gave up.Have now purchased a Hla 66 and hoping it's more robust.

Wow, this looks gutless.
