We have quite a large garden, with a lot of hedges, and areas that are
constantly invaded by brambles. We are thinking of getting a shredder,
obviously needs to be fairly powerful and able to cope with some woody
branches, etc., but also needs to last more than one or two seasons.
Storage space is not a problem.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Yes, don't use it before 8am!
