Daylight robbery. I was caught out. No better than a very expensive toy both to purchase and run. Expensive blades last no time. Neither does battery which takes ages to charge. I am amazed that Bosh haven't copped on to this disaster and hoodwinking of customers. Don't purchase one and if you do don't say you were not warned. Not even worth one star but that was the minimum that could be awarded. True value is about £10.

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH COMMENT WRITTEN ON 14/10/2010- I HAVE A FAIRLY LARGE GARDEN- HENCE THE NEED FOR A CORDLESS STRIMMER AS AN ELECTRIC CABLE WOULDN'T BE PRACTICAL AND REACH THE WHOLE PLOT! THE BATTERY ONCE CHARGED COVERS ROUGHLY 6 SQUARE METRES BEFORE RUNNING OUT, THE BLADES ARE EXPENSIVE AND DON'T LAST LONG - A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY. I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO KNOW IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO BUY METAL BLADES FOR THIS STRIMMER SO THAT IT WOULD BE MORE COST EFFECTIVE. I ORIGINALLY SAW A STRIMMER ADVERTISED IN ARGOS WITH METAL BLADES BUT WHEN I GOT AROUND TO BUYING IT - IT WAS NO LONGER STOCKED!! - CAN'T HELP FEELING THIS STRIMMER WAS TAKEN OFF THE MARKET AS COMPANIES LIKE BOSCH MAKE ENDLESS AMOUNTS OF MONEY SELLING THE POOR QUALITY BLADES ONCE YOU HAVE PURCHASED THEIR STRIMMER!!
