 electric hedge trimmer December 5, 2009

The item delivered by ups was damaged. The item was in original box and had been wet and the parts were lying on porch outside box. There were no contact numbers and I didn't know what contents to look for. I called UPS and made them come pick it up. I then called a number and talked to someone who asked me if I wanted a refund or if I wanted another shipped. I requested another one to be shipped. I expressed my dissatisfaction as to the method they used to ship it. There was no wrapping just the box it came in. Very shortly UPS came back with same item and box was taped up but bottom half of box was torn and hanging out. I have not checked the item to see if it works but I will notify you if it is defective. I did not like the way it was shipped or delivered.
B&D MEANS POOR QUALITY December 2, 2009

The HH2450 I purchased lasted only 2 seasons. Even with careful use, the cheap plastic gear drive failed and could not be repaired by The Authorized B&D Service Center. Expect poor performance, from B&D's poor design, cheap materials and Mexican manufacturing standards. B&D is NOT the brand to buy.

I bought the Hedge Hog for my dad last Christmas, and he loved it even more than I was expecting him to. He has told me how well it works, and how much he enjoys using it. He has quite a bit of landscaping to do with many bushes in the yard, and they have never looked better now that he has the Hedge Hog.
 Good for thicker branches but poor for finer trimming October 30, 2009

I've used Black & Decker hedge trimmers for decades and always felt they were well built, economically priced and performed well. However I am fairly disappointed with this HedgeHog model. While it trims thicker branches (1/8"+) nicely, the blade does not seem to be designed for the fine feather and needle covering of a typical evergreen hedge. I found that the blade was fairly slow in cutting this material and rather than a nice crisp cut, it tended to 'yank' the needles off and leave a short length of fine white fiber behind. Almost seems as though the blade is dull, but in this case it's a new unit.
I have discussed this trimmer in more detail with a professional who agreed that it is not really designed for cutting the fine material on yews, etc. He said the gap between the teeth allows for cutting larger branches more efficiently but reduces the sharpness of cut for finer material. He said that B&D makes trimmers with tighter tooth configurations which seem to work much better on the fine stuff. That makes sense to me, although I think B&D should be a little more clear in how they describe the Hedge Hog, it's really more of a small-brush cutter rather than a hedge trimmer. It also works well for cutting back hydrangeas, etc. that have twig-like growth.
Black and Decker Hedgehog trimmer 23' October 27, 2009
Carl/Eileen (Tucson, AZ)
Waited too long to buy this. Saves hours of hand trimming. Does a great job with lots of power. Electric is good way to go.
Cuts branches about half inch thick but should probably stick to smaller ones. All in all a great tool.
