My Dad's got one. Looks heavier than it actually is, so not too bad.
He thinks it's great (he's 73, so bending to pick up bits is trickier
than it used to be!). He did say large branches don't cut so you have
to use secateurs on them but it keeps his hedge in trim, and you don't
get branches if you do it regularly. I think he has to cut it more
than he used to because it's more unforgiving on the larger twigs.
