According to our hedge trimmer expert
Thanks to the 65-centimeter blade, the Bosch AHS 65-34 won't be inadequate any time soon. It makes this 700-watt hedge trimmer the perfect tool for when you need to overcome an impressive hedge. It's lightweight and has ergonomic handles, making it easy to handle, even above your head. The sliding clutch provides a high torque of 50 Newton meters, which provides a very high trimming performance, and the laser-cut diamond blades provide a perfect and precise result. The hedge trimmer has a sawing function, which ensures the serration at the front of the blade can cut branches of up to 34 millimeters effortlessly. Finally, the AHS 65-34 is equipped with a useful blade protector for trimming along walls or the ground.

I chose this model because I have 4 Mulberry trees in the shape of a roof in the garden that sprout considerably every year. And if you are not quick enough, then it is a hell of a job to prune the branches (up to 3.5 cm thick) with secateurs on a stick.
Thanks to the heavy 700W motor and the long blade, pruning is now a piece of cake. I used to do 1 tree per hour with the pruning shears, now I do all 4 trees within an hour. Although the device is large due to the long blade, I find it manageable while on top of a ladder (as long as you think about what you're going to do before moving!). With one swing I can flatten almost the entire top of the tree, it goes that smoothly!
Smart from Bosch: In addition to the main switch in the handle, there are 3 safety switches incorporated in the second handle (bracket). So whether you hold the machine straight or tilted, the switches are easy to reach. This means you don't have to force yourself into an awkward position, which is safer when you're on a ladder.
Branches up to (2 +/-) are trimmed nice and tight, the thicker specimens (up to 3.5 cm for me) can get a frayed cutting edge. In those rare cases I take the 'old-fashioned' secateurs on a stick and work the branch with it neatly. That little bit of manual work does not outweigh the enormous time savings that come with working with this machine.
So highly recommended!
(For Durability and Maintenance not yet 5 stars because I have only had the machine for a short time)

I was a bit shocked when unpacking what a long knife. You have to watch out for that. But it is easy to handle, just too heavy and you can work easily and quickly with it.

We recently moved into a house with a large garden with many large shrubs and had to work with a hedge trimmer for the first time in my life. I was still undecided about a smaller size, but I'm glad I didn't. This is really a top device and it went through the bushes like butter, even the thicker branches! It is also very light, today I could easily prune the taller bushes. Highly recommended!
