The shredder arrived on time ,very quickly! Difficult to assess performance as yet, because it is late in the season, our 3 hedges and many bushes/trees had already been trimmed for the year and we used a recently purchased fire-pit to burn all, in the absence of the shredder which appeared unobtainable because of CV. However we had read 'Fred the Shed's recommendation so we hope it fits the bill. It appeared on 3 other web-sites awn a cheaper cost but they couldn't provide it when needed. We had had a McCulloch shredder years ago for our 2 acre garden but it proved a waste of money.

The machine shredded my fresh Buddleia prunings very well, although I have not tried it wih damp, or soft materials. The machine seems very robust in design. However, it is both noisier and much more expensive, than my previous Bosch shredder, (similar to the the 25 D). It is also very top-heavy and not as easy to move around the garden. The fact that it has to rest on its runners at one end, is not good for protection of the runners. It would have been more sensible to incorporate rubber feet or bumper pads at least. This is surprising as Bosch products are usually the very best for user friendliness and ergonomic design. (I could praise the design of my Bosch lawnmower endlessly.)

I'd been considering this for a while after hiring one a couple of years ago. A great addition to the garden as it easily handles branches up to 4-5 cm that are too large for my existing shredder and would take forever to decompose. It doesn't chop smaller material very finely so I'm glad to have the old shredder for dealing with the green stuff - top growth of veg, etc. As another reviewer has noted, it is top-heavy and a bit awkward to manouevre as a result. Delivery was prompt and as promised.
