Bosch AXT 25 D Garden Shredder
However, the shredder can struggle with soft stems and leafy materials, frequently 'gumming up' the machine. The pressure plate wears away quickly, and finding the optimal adjustment for the pressure knob can be tricky.
One user pointed out that despite the machine's robust build, it feels overly safety-conscious and cumbersome to operate compared to older models.
Overall, the AXT 25 D Shredder offers robust performance for specific tasks but comes with notable limitations.
What Owners Think
A great shredder but it too heavy for moving around on grass or uneven ground.
I wrongly hoped this would replace my old Bosch shredder which finally met its end after many years of faithful loyal dependable work. I suspect it felt a happy release!! The old one never jammed, shredded superbly and was safe to use.
This one did none of the above and was so "safety conscious" it was impossible to get at unless it was disassembled...Bring back the older design!
Great shredder for general garden use. Chops up small branches easily but not so great on green shrubbery etc, can get clogged easily on stuff like that but is easy enough to clear. Better with dry material but I'm happy enough with it for the purpose I bought it for. Small and dry things work well but don't expect it to shred a Leylandii easily, it doesn't like soft green material too much.
