## Description

Cordless hedge trimmer with 53cm blade and 60-min runtime lithium-ion battery. Lightweight design with adjustable head and shoulder strap for comfortable use.

Review: It really is a good, strong hedge cutter and is quite lightweight too. - This purchase wasn't without hassle as the first one arrived and promptly died. Returning it via Evry was a complete pain, firstly I hadn't used my printer for ages and it wouldn't print the bar codes. I rang up desertcart for help to see if I could return it without the codes, yes she said just write the address on and all will be ok! So I did and headed off to shop number one... not taking any Evry parcels that day! Next day shop number two, we got there to find the shop surrounded by police cars, back home again! Shop number three, we managed to park right outside and it was open... huge parcel shoved in their direction until they told me that it really did need those printed bar codes, I was going to have to find someone to print them for me, so back home we go still with the damn trimmer in the car. Finally I did what I should have done to start with and reinstalled my almost new ecotank printer. Labels finally printed off we returned to shop number two and waved goodbye to the dead trimmer. I'd already received my replacement trimmer and it worked beautifully, hedge cutting has never been so easy and I would recommend this machine as it is much lighter than others in its price range. A word on returns, you only have a limited time to return the faulty goods or you end up paying for both of them, which is why we were in such a hurry to send the broken one back.
Review: Nice and light - Nice and light easy to use

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you have this in stock?**
A: I get very busy & don't always have the time on my side, it is preferable for me not tobe overwhelmed, my time is limited

**Q: How much is a spare battery pleas**
A: £54. 99 is the price of a spare battery

**Q: Is it telescopic or do you need a bolt o .pole to boost the length**
A: It's not telescope it's got a long arm and a blade that you can bend to alter to trim the tops of hedges. I'm 72, and I found although it's easy to use, but after a while it got heavy for me to keep holding, but it does do a good job. Hope this helps.

**Q: What thickness of branch will it cui**
A: Personally I find it's more to do with the toughness of the branch rather than its thickness. In general though I wouldn't use it on much more than one centimetre but I think it claims to do much more. Not as powerful as mains electric types but very good for light trimming and well engineered.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice and light
*by A***A on 3 December 2025*

Nice and light easy to use

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very lightweight extended trimmer which is easy to operate.
*by S***. on 3 August 2025*

I decided to look into extended trimmers to cut my many tall hedges. However, having read most of the many dissatisfied reviews of this product I spent some time looking at the alternatives. The reviews of all of these were equally disappointing; many a lot worse. In the end I thought I'd risk it and try the Gtech LHT50. I have to say that (so far) I am pleasantly surprised. I find this trimmer very lightweight - the main feature for me, as a male in his 70's, and of slight build. Most of my hedges are privet and hawthorn and the blade cuts through these adequately. I also have a long, mature conifer hedge on which I use a powerful, standard length trimmer. I think it's a bit much to expect the Gtech, which is clearly designed to be a lightweight extended trimmer, to cut through thick conifer branches. So, yes, you will need to complement the Gtech with a standard length trimmer. I don't think this is unreasonable. In addition to its lightness I found the switch OK to operate; the trimmer is easy to manoeuvre and it's very easy to change the angle of the blade, even in a precarious position. I've only used it for 3 days, so far, but have not experienced any of the blade-snapping problems others have had and I had no problems with the battery life or the time taken to recharge. It seems quite well made to me but I can't, yet, speak for its longevity, hence the 4 stars.
