Jhésite recommend this product because it seems that nobody is born received the same If it is indicated in the technical description that the charger is not provided, I have received a charger but the BS 29447 model with socket (UK plug), so you need an adapter to use sen. Fortunately the 40V battery, 29717 model, was a bit busy and between two winter rains i still able to test this pruner before buying an adapter. My battery model, guaranteed for 2 years, recharges in 60 minutes and the charger can be wall mounted (with screws) for easy operation. Installation is easy and lélagueuse measure up to 2.4m. I find it a bit heavy for a woman, but it is handy and proves to be very convenient to prune small inner branches of a large tree. For warranty period it is important to regularly clean the ventilation holes, adjust the voltage and check the status of the chain (which, if damaged, can not be replaced and the chain guide, than by Greenworks parts. Replacement Chain No. A6158 and chain guide No. 623381-00.), and especially of the grease before each use and after cleaning with a suitable oil, it is sufficient to grease the chain evenly along its length. This pruner performs its job well and is easy of use, it is a reasonable sized garden containing some trees, the fact is what wireless is a plus and it is a little quieter thermal quune pruner. By cons it is cumbersome and as no protection provided nest pocket, I have preferred to keep the box so that the children can not touch it. A good price / quality but uncertainty about the contents of the sales package, I recommend you of calling customer service before purchase!
