Product Information

The blade is two sided, with only one side doing the cutting and so when it dulls, simply turn it over and use the other edge. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. For which the included plastic paddle seems light, but is actually very good at helping to feed through branches.

So the best method, for example when in my case shredding conifers is first to lop the branches into handlable lengths then snip intermediate branches again so that you are feeding single branches into the machine and best not to exceed 18mm diameter and of course note the icon on the feed opening; feed from the righthand side. We love the patented hopper design and the practical plunger as it seriously speeds up the whole process and is safe and easy to use. Bosch was created in 1886 in Stuttgart, Germany by Robert Bosch who formed the business to specialise in the manufacture of electronic components.

We first tested this garden shredder way back in 2008 but, since it’s still available and popular, we decided to put it through our tough tests again to see how it compares with newer machines on the market.

My overall thoughts on this shredder is good I thoroughly recommend this machine for garden shredding including in my case conifers; excellent machine, no known problems todate and it shreds pretty quickly if you use some commonsense and don't attempt to go to maximum size shredding. However, it seems to be better than previous more expensive models I've tried in the past but it is early days.
