Item arrived in double quick time, first charge to full took about 2 hrs. Item is light weight and really useful to reach tall bushes due to extended length. Run time is approx. 45 minutes as advertised. Worst feature is on/off trigger switch which is very awkward and stiff to operate, requires good finger strength. Be aware that this is a good trimming tool and ideal for a mid season tidy up but should not be considered to be a serious hedge cutter. My 30 year old Black and Decker corded cutter is much better for tough hedging. However bearing in mind it’s limitations it is a excellent product for garden maintenance
