 Shaken not Stirred Sep 11, 2006
By Kevin
After loosing 2 hours of my life reading reviews in order to get the right hedge trimmer, I settled on the HT2200. My results of one day's urban hedge trimming are:
1. Cut the small stuff fine. Got hung up on anything tuff (say 1/2" diameter and knobby). No big deal, simply cut those main branches with snips from my pocket.
2. The weight and reach were fine.
3. The cut quality was fine.
4. It is very jerky, with many vibrations.
On the whole ... it works and has no bells and whistles. I am satisfied (see below).
My Search:
-Requirements: Trimmer that works, won't wear out in the next 10-15 years. Nothing fancy.
-Didn't want cordless from fear of battery life not lasting 10-15 years.
-Didn't want the "double action" Black and Deckers due to all the bad reviews on them getting dull. I.e. won't last the 10-15 years I want.
Best regards,
Kevin

GREAT - only one GRIPE! Feb 03, 2007
By Michael G. Llewellyn
"orbeavhawk"
I am REALLY GLAD that I bought these Hedge Trimmers - they work GREAT - but - I found that as others had said the ONLY BUG is the way they designed where and how you plug it into the Trimmer. It gets to be a Pain in the --- after awhile because as you trim the cord catches every so often on the branches and unplugs itself - you have to continually re-plug it in again; other than that it is GREAT! [I would have given it a 5 except for this]
PS - It appears that from the photo of the product that they have changed the design of this unit - and you now plug this model in differently than mine.

 It works, but . . . Jun 07, 2007
By Tax Pro
My old (meaning over 15 years old!) B & D electric trimmer gave up the ghost last week, so I decided to replace it today with a newer model. The HT2200 is much lighter than my previous trimmer, which was great news. It also easily cut through my evergreens and magnolia bush. So far, so good. Next, the bad news: as soon as I moved over to my rather large arborvitae (about 8 feet tall), the extension cord came out of the unit about every other swipe. I tried switching extension cords, thinking that perhaps the connector on my cord was faulty. Apparently that wasn't the problem, though, because the second cord popped out even more than the first. Talk about annoying! Fortunately, my tots were out in the yard with me so it kept my frustration from becoming audibly offensive ;). However, I fully plan to take this unit back to Home Depot tomorrow because I can't deal with aggravation of having the cord fall out every 10 seconds (literally).

 Not worth it Feb 14, 2008
By A. Wolters
"dewOlt"
I purchased this unit based on price...it seemed like a good value.
In the past I had always borrowed my friends professional gas trimmers but I kept my expectations in check as this unit is 1/10 the price. The feel and control is nice and I didn't have any problems with the cord falling off. However, the unit does not make clean cuts. It almost appears as if its tearing instead of cutting. You also have to go very sllooowwwwwwww or make several passes to even see progress. I will not use this unit again.
I would not recommend this item.
