Black & Decker NHT518-1 18-Volt Cordless Electric Hedge Trimmer Reviews

This trimmer is awesome. I have a 200′ long area of juniper that must be trimmed twice yearly. This trimmer will go through almost the entire 200′ edge without changing batteries. The trimmer is very light and sharp – trims as well as my gas trimmers and is a heck of a lot easier to handle. I also have the Black & Decker 18V string trimmer and leaf blower. The leaf blower eats batteries; the string trimmer is not too bad. But this hedge trimmer goes forever on a single charge.

This is my first powered hedge trimmer so I have nothing to compare it to, but I was surprised by how well this battery powered hedge trimmer did the job on it’s first use. It trimmed about 30 large bushes on one battery charge and did it almost effortlessly. The blades work well, the product is light-weight and the vibration is minimal. I must admit, it was a gift…I would not have bought it, but after using it I am impressed and would recommend it for any weekend landscaper. One more extra battery is all I would recommend. Good product from Black & Decker!

I trimmed 2 giant aborvite, 3 moderate sized hollies, 3 medium crape myrtles, and a couple of smaller bushes in about an hour. Didn’t notice it slowing down. It’s light, manuvreable, and cuts through branches my old corded trimmer would not. I can’t speak to batteries since it’s my first use, but so far so good.
