My only issue with it is that the brushless motor has electronic protection that shuts it off at the first sign of being clogged/jammed. When that happens, you have to manually remove all the blockage. Every tiny little bit. I have to use 2 flathead screwdrivers to clear these clogs. It becomes annoying. I have a cheaper 18v from Ryobi that has a brushed motor and it gets jammed, unless it's a 1/2" branch, you just have to hit the power switch a few times and it will push itself through the clog 99% of the time. This one can't do that due to the motor protection.
