Mac Allister MHTP710 710W 600mm Corded Hedge trimmer

I bought this hedge trimmer 31/5/2019 to trim a small hedge round my front garden and it has only been used approximately 8 times at the very most. Tried to use it today and motor burnt out as soon as I started it. Complete waste of money. Very disappointed. Unfortunately reviews do not get your money back.....

Only bought this 2 years ago and has failed already. The blade jams only on small twigs and sounds like the clutch is slipping. Restarts if you tap the blade but fails straight again on restarting. Do not buy.

Have owned 2 of these cutters first for 3 yrs.was returned due to a recall.Just cutting my hedge when blades stopped but motor still running. As out of warranty i opened casing to look for problem.2 plastic fingers holding main gear wheel in position snapped allowing gear wheel when under load to move away from driving gear.No possible solution.Very poor design.

Bought last year for one small hedge - it worked. This year, the cutters stopped within short period whilst the motor continued to sound (the cutters were clean and unobstructed). Suspect gears inside do not work. Disappointing....waste of money. Poor quality -would not recommend to anyone.
Do not normally post opinion but fed up with rubbish that is sold which is substandard with no longevity

Did a great job and reasonably priced would highly recommend
