About DEWALT 20V MAX Hedge Trimmer, Tool Only (DCPH820B)
Overall Feedback:
82% positive
83% appreciated the long battery life, although 17% thought it drained quickly
The trimmer works well and is more powerful than my other one. Since I mostly use Dewalt battery powered tools, I have plenty of batteries.
I have experienced several issues with the mower, especially with the battery-saving speed adjustment that has ruined three of my $400 batteries (12ah).
73% liked the sharp and durable blades, yet 27% found them dull quickly
I am concerned about the positive lock of the head rotation, as it seems weak.
69% praised its sturdy construction, yet 31% felt it was flimsy
I compared the product's quality to that of a toy, as it feels lightweight and poorly made.
I am concerned about the weak positive lock of the head rotation.
81% liked excellent cutting performance
This trimmer works well and is more powerful than my similar black&decker trimmer. It works well with my 20v, 5ah batteries.
I bought this tool to cut undergrowth at the edge of my woods and it worked very well for that purpose.
80% liked its user-friendly design, while 20% found it cumbersome
I bought this power-hedge-trimmer to cut undergrowth at the edge of my woods and it worked very well for that.
The trimmer is heavy and cumbersome to use. The joint where you can set the angle of the trimmer is loose with too much flop.
The hinge for adjusting the tool angle does not hold any position tightly, making it frustrating to hold steady while cutting.
80% liked the low noise level, while 20% found it too loud
The trimmer is squeaking, flopping around and almost feels like the cutter head is going to break off.
After 11 months, my trimmer stopped working and the warranty was not helpful.
If I lightly move the tool handle, the head shakes around as if its barely attached.
74% appreciated its portability, though 26% found it heavy
I find it difficult to carry the weight of the power hedge trimmer with the shoulder strap, even though I am tall.
65% appreciated the safety features, but 35% found them lacking
The safety mechanism on the trigger is annoying and makes it difficult to turn the device on/off.
The hedger is awkward to handle, flimsy and doesn't extend.
75% liked its versatility for various tasks, but 25% found it limited
The product is a game changer for my trimming tasks, but it is heavy and tiring.
85% highlighted its minimal vibration, although 15% experienced significant vibration
I have complained that the hinge mechanism of the trimmer does not hold any position tightly, making it difficult to hold the tool steady while cutting.
Rephrased: The hinge mechanism of the trimmer does not hold any position tightly, making it difficult to hold the tool steady while cutting.
