Bosch ART 23 Easytrim Electric Grass Trimmer (23 cm Cutting Diameter)

Just been trying to use this product and have lost count of how many times the line has broken off inside the spool cartridge. You have to remove spool cover, line cover, then feed the line back through the line cover then back through the spool cover, then re-fit the spool cover. My fingers have turned green with grass juice and I am fed up!

Also - no auto line feed!!! You have to press it on the ground every time you want more line - which is a total pain and there is always too much which means that bits break off every time you re-start it.

Trimmer Line for Easytrim/all Combitrim's /23GF/GFS/GFSV

 

Trimmer Line for Easytrim/all Combitrim's /23GF/GFS/GFSV  

Trimmer line is just as purchased initially with Bosch strimmer, works just the same so can be purchased with confidence.

Having tried to use a cheap alternative, this trimmer line proved well worth the extra money. It is much stronger and does not snap off every two minutes. So far have refilled spool twice with enough line for at least another two refills. Line is easy to use to refill spool and does not slip to unwind itself when rewinding. I would recommend this product as good value for money.

This strimmer line makes a really bad product (i.e. the strimmer itself) only slightly better. Instead of snapping every 3 feet (as the reel supplied with the strimmer does), it only snaps every 10 feet!!!

Bosch Isio Shape & Edging Li-Ion Shear

 Bosch Isio Shape & Edging Li-Ion Shear

I have a very big garden with around 50 metres length of 7 foot high hedging. I ordered the isio 2 years ago on the basis of reviews, secretly thinking that although it would be useful for those small jobs, I would probably have to get somethiing with a 240v lead to do the garden jobs properly... I was wrong...

A single charge takes around 2 hours & lasts for around 40 minutes continuous use.

Despite being only 3.6v, it is an extremely powerful tool (make sure you keep the other hand well away) and cuts through branches up to 1cm thick (I kid you not). It might have to "champ" a bit on the bigger branches, but does (after 3 or 4 "bites") get though them. With conifer hedges it cuts very quickly & efficiently at first contact. I find I can trim back about 8-10 metres length of a 7 foot high conifer hedge within the 40 minute (or so) charge time.

Because of the smart (no memory loss effect) LI-ION battery, I find the power & battery charge time still similar to first use 2 years ago.

It does have a safety button so that it is not possible to get fingers anyway near the blade with the hand actually operating it (do not be tempted to "feed" material into it with your other hand).

It is very light & comfortable to use, but will not (for safety reasons) operate with the charger wire plugged in.

It is amazing the amount of cutting you can do on one charge. If I have a lot to do, I simply go on to another garden job during its recharge time.

Mine came in a smart steel tin & it also has a blade attachment that can be swapped over for trimming the grass (which I also use to trim around trees & edges after mowing). It is competent for this but its real attraction (to me, at least) is its excellence as a hedge trimmer.

Get one & you won't be disappointed.

This is a great device. The two blade set is worth the extra money. Cuts very smoothly. It is lightweight and fits nicely into your hand. Last for about 40 minutes on continuous use. Charges quite quickly too. I enjoyed the product so much that I order one for my Mum. She loves it!
