About this deal

The lithium ion battery is integrated, and it has no memory which means that it retains its charge when not in use. Making it ready for use at any time. The Bosch Keo cordless pruning saw and tree trimmer is lightweight and ergonomic making it easy to use and manoeuvre. In fact, before we get started let’s watch their demo. They show you a scaffold pole being cut through with ease funnily enough as I just mentioned above. I’ve saved you two seconds wasted life starting at the right point to see the cut ability: Straight blade pruning knives are better suited for cutting things anywhere below shoulder height but above the waist because of the angle of the sawing motion in cohesion with where you are standing. Curved bladed saws are better for cutting branches above shoulder height or for low branches below the waist
.

Also, some have had issues in the past with build quality, this is something they have rectified on newer models as the percentage of unhappy campers has dropped considerably. So after saying this is marketing genius it does have a few holes. They are mainly down to how heavy the use, if it’s light work then Bosch is the best option for sure. I don’t want to sound too down on this tool because it really is useful for lighter work! Pros: There is always some pruning work to do in our gardens whatever the time of year, from fruit trees to shrubs, to vines and roses. Well established tough plants and trees often need tough tools to deal with them. Cordless secateurs or hand tools are not quite enough. The 8 inch saw blade has 9 teeth per inch and does a great job of slicing through branches thanks to the Japanese style ‘cut on pull’ designed to reduce friction.
the handles worth a mention too. The feel is nice and you can expect to hold on reasonably well. However, theres no chance of me using a pruning saw without gloves as per their demo image. Keep the pivot nut tightened as well. Thats a useful tip. The tighter the more stable, within reason of being able to open the blade of course! Pros:Not everyone can afford, or wants to spend a lot of money on a silky pruning saw or something similar. Thankfully for lower end money you can actually have the best. This blade is coarse and an absolute ripper. You need a bit of force to make this thing move, but once you do, you won’t be disappointed. Being triple ground you need some force to cut – this is why some may snag as they cut. The blade is hard, very sharp, and resistant to rust. Don’t worry though, further on in the review I talk through some finer cut blades that are super easy to use. Let’s start with the few bad ish points I can find. With the cable only being 3 metres in length you’re going to want a waterproof cable reel as they didn’t even try to add a cable long enough to this unit. I actually think that’s a wise move. Most trees could be anywhere up to 80 ft down a normal garden. It would increase the price of the unit beyond sensible costs to add that length of cable. A smart move really to accept the cable issue off the bat. You can be completely secure in the knowledge that nothing passed to SagePay can be examined or decrypted including transaction information and/or cardholder data by any third parties, staff within our company or by SagePay. It also has a variable speed trigger and the blades are easily changed via the no tool blade change system. Other blades for various cutting jobs are available to buy separately making this an ideal choice for a variety of household diy tasks.

Customer reviews

Before I go to far on the review, lets take a look at how this cuts and we can discuss the nitty gritty after. Sorry I had to fast forward this guys video a whole 5 minutes to saved wasted time:

One week later and after approaching the shop to see what is going on, I’m told that they need a part and it will take ONE MONTH. In one month it will be spring: no longer time for pruning! These power tools improve with every new model that comes on to the market. Lithium Ion batteries are a lot longer lived and take less time to charge. They also keep their charge, so you can always be assured that they are ready to use at any time.You don’t need to force this cutter, it’ll do the work nice and gently for you. Sure lean into the cut a little, but make yourself comfortable as it’ll take a little while to get through larger branches and certainly beats hand operation all day long. Pros:

It would be suitable for pruning any small-medium sized fruit tree, native, etc. I wouldn't recommend it for large/very large gum trees that ... Read more require a chain saw and that have very large branches. It is a pruning saw not a chain saw for a large gum tree. You’ll want to decide if you want a pruning saw that folds away like a pen knife, or fits in a holster. This will be led by the size branches you want to cut (longer blades don’t fold away pretty much). If it’s occasional use you definitely want one or the other, having a blade without a sheath is an unnecessary risk for light use. Pruning saw with a foldaway blade – convenient and strong enough for occasional work With its 20V power the VonHaus cordless pruning saw is more than adequate for pruning overgrown shrubs and small tree branches. It’s tidy, ergonomic design means that it has a nice feel and fits comfortably for extended lengths of work. The soft grip handle helps to reduce vibration and muscle fatigue.

Cordless garden tools ensure effortless garden maintenance, and they ensure a good, clean cut which is what is required so as not to damage the remaining branch which can in turn cause disease.
