Default Has anyone used a garden groom hedge trimmer?

Hi,

I'm in need of a hedge trimmer & have stumbled upon a garden groom,
its an electric one where the blade spins round. It says it shreds
the trimmings as it goes, which seems a good idea.

I was going to go for a ryobi expand-it one but they are about £160
(as you have to but the engine (which come3s with a brusctuuer
attachment, then the hedge trimmer as an extra)

The garden groom's look to be about £80.

Has anyone used one? Are they any good.

The only as I see it plus side of the ryobi on is that you can also
get a cultivator attachmnt for £56 which may come in useful on the
yearly turning of the raised beds.

Thanks
