Overview
A dual action blade at the end of an extension pole trims tall hedges from the ground, and the head pivots to change the cutting angle. A lithium ion battery powers it, with a charger included.
The pole and pivoting head carry the blade to the top of a tall hedge without a ladder, and the battery and charger arrive in the box. The limits are its weight out at the tip of a long pole and a runtime the listing never states.
Who it's for
Homeowners with tall hedges who want to trim standing up and avoid a cord. Large properties, thick woody growth or users uneasy lifting a long tool overhead should consider other options.
Pros and cons
- Extension pole removes the ladder
- Pivoting head angles the blade
- Dual action blade cuts in both directions
- Battery and charger included
- Battery runtime not listed
- Heavy at the end of a pole
- Trimming limited to hedges and shrubs
Performance notes
The dual action blade moves its teeth in opposite directions, so the cut stays steady as the blade is pushed through foliage. The pivoting head sets the angle for tops and sides, and the pole length sets how high you can work. Run time depends on the battery charge, which the listing does not give.

Frequently asked questions
Can the BLACK+DECKER LPHT120 handle a very long hedge?
The listing gives no battery runtime or area per charge, so a long hedge may need a recharge before it is finished.

No. It is a pole hedge trimmer with an extension pole. The listing describes trimming shrubs and hedges up to 11 feet high.
