Customers Say
Effective hedge trimmer with good cutting power and long reach, but often criticized for being heavy and top-heavy, making extended use tiring. Easy to assemble and good value for price.

Sharp blade
Sharp blade, easy to use, nice long cable, comfy to hold. Lost a strap clip after 1st use, so unable to use the holster.

Extendable long reach hedgecutter

Great
All of the above does the job well
Chopper 1, 55 - 64
A bit disappointing
Very heavy and awkward to use. Not as effective as I had hoped, the saw is not as powerful as the non-extending model by S&J

Superb
I bought last month i am very happy with item
Lijo, 35 - 44
Good product
Very good product at a reasonable price it is a little heavy when fully extended. It cut everything I needed to cut and the adjustable head makes all areas accessible. It just a matter of getting used to it.

Good price
Bought when in sale, good price, it is a little top Heavy. Haven’t used as yet hence 4 stars

Broke first time using
It broke the first time we used it. The plastic snapped where the cutter attaches to the pole, which isn’t surprising as it’s a lot of weight loading on one plastic pivot

Haven't used it on the hedge yet but it doesn't seem that powerful when operated. The box had previously opened and resealed with masses of sellotape as some of the packaging was missing.

Hi Ellie,
Thanks for your query about the Spear & Jackson 45cm Corded Pole Hedge Trimmer - 550W.
This is equipped with an aluminium telescopic tube, which extends from 195cm to 265cm for safer long-reach cutting. The telescopic handle prevents you having to over reach, so it's easy to adjust to suit the height of your hedge. A shoulder strap makes it easier for you to hold and control the trimmer.
Thanks for using Q&A.

Hi There,
Spear & Jackson 45cm Corded Pole Hedge Trimmer - 550W
Having checked the manual I can see it advises to fix the hook of the shoulder strap into the lifting lug
on the handle pole of the appliance.
Thanks for using Q&A.
I found these instructions online and it does work, however, I feel it may be unsafe and I just use the metal clips.... The L shaped metal bar at the end of the long black strap goes through the loop attached to the spring clip that fixes to the pole. The bar at the other end of the orange strap then slides through the slit in the L shaped bar, locking it in place.
