I had this clipper for a couple of years now and I am very satisfied with it. I have a pretty large hedge and it cuts the whole thing on one charge. I'm still using the same battery too. No need for a new battery, this one still works fine.
I got a refurb for my mom who is disabled. It's lightweight and the charge lasts longer than she does. She really likes it for her hedge roses and misc. stuff around her big yard.
This model was an upgrade for me, even though it was a refurb, and it has been a delight to cut my large number of hedges with it. The battery lasts just about as long as I do, before needing a recharge; the cutter is new and sharp and glides through the twigs. It's not as smooth and quiet as a new one would be, but for 1/3 the price or so, it's a great buy.
This is an outstanding product, the 18 volt system has enough power to cut through normal shrubs and the charge lasts 45 min. to 1 hour. I also have the 18 volt B&D string trimmer and between the 2 pieces of equipment I have 3 18 volt batteries and this is enough power to tame any job I would start.Black & Decker NHT518-1 18-Volt Cordless Electric Hedge Trimmer
As a librarian I review "everything", expecting that this would be an adequate hedge trimmer with the exception that the battery life was somewhat short, and less powerful than a corded trimmer I went ahead and tried it. After a 11 hour charge I procedded to trim my yard of extensive gardens and shrubery and trees. I was pleased to find out that the battery charge lasted for over an hour of on and off starting of the trimmer to complete the whole yard of trimming. Unless you have very thich branches to cut, this, is a great trimmer to buy.
