Pole hedge trimmer recomendations

Hey guys, anyone got a recommendation for a pole hedge trimmer?

Would usually just go with a stihl or something but they seem to be £300 minimum which seems a little excessive...

There a bosch mains system AMW I think. That can have different heads and an extension pole.
If you want petrol see what Screwfix have on offer.

Check the weight of whatever you purchase! i have a petrol one and it aches after a few mins of carrying it / reaching high.
I'd be looking at a battery / re-charge trimmer if i were purchasing again.

You get what you pay for with stihl. I use stihl tools all day everyday. If you look after them they will last you a lifetime
