"This hedger is absolute weapon" based on your review I went and purchased one of these and mate I have to agree. It's bloody amazing and a joy to use and knocked many valuable minutes off my hedging jobs. So quiet too. Thank you for your reviews, I always value your opinion. Steve Brisbane.
Excellent video & explanation as always. Love the way you let us viewers hear the machine… as opposed to pounding musak! Just had my hands on the (newish) ECHO dhc-2800r. Also very impressive. These commercial battery hedgers are really getting there. Might be worth a future comparison?
Secondo me, si’. L’ho solo tenuto in mano al negozio, ma mi sembra MOLTO ben fatto e abbastanza leggero per un tagliasiepe commerciale. Pero’ caro!@@MrStteeeffff
a very good and neutral review... i just ain't decide a battery or motor hedger... i love Husqvarna , they are a little underestimated because Stihl has got the biggest marketing program! But anyway very interesting , so thank you very much !
Really great review. I am torn between the HD75 and the HDR60, with the main difference being Trim Cut Blades vs Course Cut Blades. I have a very overgrown garden with lots of brambles. I want to clear those, which makes me lean towards the HDR, but once they are clear I don't suspect I will need to do that again, and the HD would be better longer term. Would the HD75 be able to handle brambles and thicker twigs / branches under 30cm, or would I ruin it by using it for this purpose and blunt the blades?
Thanks mate, I’d say the HD75 would be fine to get through the thicker stuff if it’s just sort of one off and then you have the better hedger for the maintenance stuff. Easy to sharpen the blades again afterwards if it does blunt them a little bit I doubt it will. Although I haven’t seen your garden lol. Might better clearing the brambles with a blade on the line trimmer?
Thanks. Battery life is good, I use the BLi200 in it mostly and with 4 of those you’ll be good for a days worth of hedging pretty much. Charges up in about 30 mins on the QC500. Cheers
Bar length, 60cm vs 75cm and the type of trimming they are designed for. One is for course thicker hedges with different gearing, and the other is for more regular maintained trimming with a higher blade speed. Cheers
How does this stack up against the 522HDR75X? I get about an hour of run time, and only a few seconds to refuel. It will also go through an inch and a half if necessary!
I haven’t used a petrol hedger in about 3 years mate. Can’t imagine I ever will to be honest. I haven’t compared that particular one but I doubt you’d be disappointed.
As a stand alone tool for a home owner or a young business, yes it could be considered expensive. From an established business perspective, this tool earns us thousands of dollars a week, from that perspective it’s worth every penny and I would rather invest / pay a bit more for quality gear that will last. I’m not making money if the tools aren’t working! Cheers

Hey mate, stoked you like it as much as I do. Cheers for watching and commenting 🤙🏻

Thank you mate, appreciate you watching and commenting. Would love to try the Echo gear and do a comparison 👍🏻
Ciao from italia. Is so good the echo trimmer?
Secondo me, si’. L’ho solo tenuto in mano al negozio, ma mi sembra MOLTO ben fatto e abbastanza leggero per un tagliasiepe commerciale. Pero’ caro!@@MrStteeeffff
@@MrStteeeffff hey mate, never tried the Echo but this would be hard to beat!
Lovely review, you have sold this product to me.
Thanks mate. Don’t think you’ll be disappointed 👍🏻
Thanks for the review mate - ergonomics matter!
Thank you mate. Appreciate you watching 🤙🏻

Thanks for watching. I love the battery hedgers. Haven’t used a petrol one in years now. Don’t think I ever will either. 👍🏻

excellent quality and ergonomics! do you know if husqvarna has a leaf catcher for this 75cm blade?
Not that I’m aware of mate. Thanks for watching
Good review. What's the battery life like on this thing? How many do you go through on a large job? What's the charge time?
Thanks. Battery life is good, I use the BLi200 in it mostly and with 4 of those you’ll be good for a days worth of hedging pretty much. Charges up in about 30 mins on the QC500. Cheers
What’s the difference between 522ihd 60 and 75. Only see the 60 in USA
Bar length, 60cm vs 75cm and the type of trimming they are designed for. One is for course thicker hedges with different gearing, and the other is for more regular maintained trimming with a higher blade speed. Cheers
@@lovelawns is the 60 for regular maintenance or course thicker hedges. Thanks mate cheers
@@andrews2203 according to Husqvarna website the 60 is for the thicker stuff. 🤙🏻
@@lovelawns2 versions of the 60, the ‘R’ means ‘rough’
The standard 60 is also 4400 CPM
How does this stack up against the 522HDR75X? I get about an hour of run time, and only a few seconds to refuel. It will also go through an inch and a half if necessary!
I haven’t used a petrol hedger in about 3 years mate. Can’t imagine I ever will to be honest. I haven’t compared that particular one but I doubt you’d be disappointed.
Any chance of comparing the Husqvarna hedger with the Stihl HSA100?
Would love to mate but I don’t have the Stihl or know anyone local with one.
very good but very expensive
