Total freedom to trim wherever you need, with no cable to manage. Bosch's 18V and 36V cordless range delivers impressive power and runtime — and all models are compatible with the Power4All battery system.
Modern cordless hedge trimmers have genuinely caught up with corded performance for most domestic gardens. The 18V models comfortably handle the majority of UK hedges, and the brushless motors in the Universal and Advanced ranges mean longer tool life and better efficiency from every charge.
The big advantage of Bosch cordless is the Power4All battery system — one 18V battery that works across Bosch's entire Green range of garden and DIY tools. If you already own any Bosch 18V tools, your battery may already work with these trimmers.
For long-reach and telescopic models see the Long Reach page. Runtime figures based on 2.0–2.5Ah battery. Tooth gap = maximum branch diameter the trimmer cuts cleanly.

⚠️ 36V battery note: The AdvancedHedgeCut 36V-65-28 uses the Bosch 36V Power4All battery — a separate system from the standard 18V Power4All. If you already own 18V Bosch tools, the batteries are not interchangeable. Check before ordering.
⭐ Best seller for most UK domestic gardens.
The lightest and most affordable cordless model. At just 2.3 kg with up to 85 minutes of runtime, it's ideal for small gardens and regularly maintained soft hedges.
The most popular cordless trimmer in the Bosch Green range. Brushless motor, Anti-Blocking System, and a 20 mm tooth gap that handles the vast majority of domestic hedges. Battery level indicator keeps you informed mid-job.
The longer-bladed sibling of the 18V-50. Same brushless motor and Anti-Blocking System, but a 55 cm blade and up to 75 minutes of runtime — ideal for medium to large gardens.
Bosch's most powerful cordless consumer trimmer. Brushless motor with corded-level cutting speed, a 28 mm tooth gap for hawthorn, berberis, and blackthorn, and Syneon Technology to optimise power vs endurance automatically.
Bosch sells most models both with and without a battery and charger. If you already own Power4All 18V tools, buying the bare tool saves a significant amount. New to the system? Buy a kit with battery and charger included.
The 18V models share batteries across most Bosch 18V garden tools — the standard Power4All system. The AdvancedHedgeCut 36V uses a separate 36V battery. More power, but a different ecosystem — check before you buy if you already own Bosch tools.
Yes, for anything beyond occasional light use. Brushless motors run cooler, more efficiently, and last significantly longer. The UniversalHedgeCut 18V-50 and 18V-55 both have brushless motors — it's a big part of why they're the top sellers.
All 18V Power4All batteries are interchangeable. A 4.0Ah battery gives roughly double the runtime of a 2.0Ah. For larger gardens or longer sessions, upgrading your battery is far cheaper than buying a new tool.
For tall hedges or overhanging branches, Bosch's long-reach and pole-mounted tools are also battery powered and Power4All compatible.
