I have been using the Bosch AXT 25TC Turbine Cut System for many months now, successfully shredding all the material from a very large perennial flower bed and spreading it back on the earth - No digging!! However, just this week I have been chopping a mixture of foliage, pruned roses and plant stems - general material - and just this morning the machine would not operate. Upon pressing the Green button all I got was the buzz of the motor. I also tried the reverse button and heard the same buzz. I did the usual thing; unplugged the machine and checked it was not jammed in Shute, checked it was not bunged up under the chopping blades, checked the basket was correctly installed. All OK! I decided that if all seemed in order it was obviously a 'signal' problem so took off the yellow/red/green button plate and straight away I saw the problem. To the left (above the yellow button) are two white terminals. One of the terminals had worked loose and was not pushed fully home. Pushed it in, replaced cover plate, plugged in. Sure enough, that was the problem. All working normal again. JUST SAYING !!! Saved myself the problem of getting the machine back to Manufacturers at an enormous cost. Result!

This is a heavy duty garden shredder. i have been really impressed on how it handles all types of garden waste and turns it into compostable matter. bosch is a great reliable well made brand and this product does them proud.

Initially very pleased with this product, although i must question its ability to cope with 45mm diam branches. They do sometimes become jammed in the cutter and you can struggle to remove them with an old srewdriver (watch your fingers!). Sorry to say reliability is suspect. Mine won't run or start after 7 months of intermittent domestic use even though i have gone through the troubleshooting instructions carefully. There is a safety device (a micro-switch, i think) ensuring it won't start if the chute is not properly in place. But the switch seems to be broken or faulty. Now the complete shredder must be returned to the bosch service centre under warranty, but it has to be packed and i don't have the original packaging (which was falling apart with the machine gaping out of it, taped up by the cursing carrier, when delivered). "get a box from your local supermarket" they said. Yeah, ok! The machine weighs 30.5kg so it will need to be an amazingly strong box. Believe it or not bosch has no local repair agents for such garden machinery. So much for (another) example of fab german engineering (actually made in hungary), and wonderful customer care. Difficult to recommend, i'm afraid.

Received this on the tuesday, by wednesday night half the 2 acre garden was cleared of detritus and trimmings from trees. I followed the instructions on size and everything <40mm went in and disappeared. Everything bigger gets chainsawed and goes in the wood burner. The mulch is now spread over the flower beds and the muddy paths through the woods. I had to wind on the knife a little bit, as the day went on, so don't know how long this'll last before it needs replacing but, having seen the price ouch!

I have no previous experience of garden shredders but i have been most impressed by the performance of the bosch axt 25 tc turbine. Basically it does what it says and chomps its way through hedge and tree cuttings reducing them to kibble. Really labour saving when you have to chop up cuttings for garden bin collection. I wish i had bought one sooner! Good space saving design with safety features but the detachable plastic hopper does give me some concern for the possibility of future wear on the hooks.
