Just picked one up, there's about half a dozen left. It looks OK,

I do like the tool-less blade change, that has often been an issue on my old, soon-to-die one - where the bloody hell is that Allen key..?

Finally used it today, did an admirable job but I did keep knocking the lock on switch by accident. Certainly made me rethink the angle I used it! Was using the basic green cut 3 tpi blade, worked much better on hard woods like the cherry tree.

We were constantly watched over by a pair of robins that appear to be nesting in a particularly dense tree / bloody huge shrub, so we refrained from trimming that one :)
