the hedges to go a little too crazy in shape and began to protrude past portions of the garage which
would scratch against our cars.
I added some hedge shears for $30 into my cart and was about to purchase it as I figured electric would
be too expensive. I was extremely surprised to see the BEHT100 listed for $37 with free shipping. I
figured the worst-case scenario is that the BEHT100 is not the greatest, but for only $7 more I would give it a shot. Plus, it seemed to have good reviews.
The box arrived and unfortunately the weather was not cooperating. Much to the annoyance of my
fiancée I got to pretend to be Tim “the Tool Man” Taylor while opening it up and pretending to give the
cat a haircut. Neither were amused. That’s when I noticed it did not come with a cord.
So just a heads up that you need to either have an extension cord or buy one. I purchased a 16AWG
50FT cord for ~$17 which works great. Plus, it will come in handy later on in life.
Finally, the weather was nice, and I got to test it out. The instructions did showcase how to best use it,
but I did elect to watch some YouTube videos as well. Overall, I was more than satisfied with the performance, especially compared to the price. I added some before and after photos. Photo of the product leaned up against a gallon of paint for a size reference.
It is easy to operate one handed and still manipulate the Lock Off button with your thumb and activate
the trigger with your hand. The result looks pretty good too for a first timer. There were a few larger
branches that didn’t cut as well, but I believe they were larger than the recommended cutting size. I was
able to break them off and continue finishing the job.
My initial impression has been great overall and I look forward to getting to use it more often next
summer! I hope to be able to edit this review later on to have more experience on the reliability & longevity of the product, but for now I have no complaints.

I also tried the trimmer on the dead stems of goldenrod and on 1- to 2-year-old stems on a Pieris hedge, well under the 5/8-inch diameter promised by the manufacturer, and it sliced in a nanosecond.
It’s important to note that there are three versions. The 100 has a little less power. The 125 adds a short saw that attaches to the end. It’s intended to cut larger branches than the hedge trimmer’s main blade. However, customer reviews show complaints that when you’re using the main blade, the saw is a nuisance because it catches on the vegetation. Personally, I’d rather use a hand pruning saw anyway.
The 150 has the best power and no saw, so that was my choice. Oddly, it cost less than the 100, at least at the time I bought it.
As far as weight, I found only one comparable model (there may be others); it was said to be 3.0 pounds vs. this trimmer’s 3.9 pounds and more powerful, but cost almost twice as much.
All in all, the B&D model seems to be a great value, especially if your yard has many ornamental grasses. What used to be a huge chore with manual tools takes only moments now.

No incluye cable (pero es muy barato), corta muy bien incluso corta ramas más gruesas de lo indicado cuando se usa de ambos lados de la rama para ir desgastando, relativamente buenos materiales, ligera de usar. Por el momento se mantiene afilada y sin problemas después de unas 5 o 6 sesiones de un par de horas cada una, espaciadas en algunos meses.
Muy recomendable. Gran diferencia de facilidad y tiempo de uso contra unas tijeras de podar.
