 Garden Shredder July 27, 2010

Great piece of kit. Does exactly what it says on the box, efficiently, quickly and without too much noise.
Bosch AXT Rapid 2200 - What a great bit of kit July 27, 2010

I bought this shredder after reading reviews on Amazon and other retailers. The Bosch name, and this model in particular came up time after time with great reviews.
Perhaps a few pounds more than some, but it does exactly what I want it to, with ease, efficiency and simplicity.
Branches up to 40mm thick are gobbled with ease and cut to a fine mulch. Operation is simplicity itself with just one on/off/emergency stop button to worry about. The rest is just about feeding in your leaves and branches.
This truly is a quality product. In future Bosch will be my first port of call when purchasing electrical products of this nature.
 Great Machine. July 26, 2010

I must admit I wasn't totally convinced about this shredder. I've been disappointed before. Now after a couple times of use I am impressed. It a good answer for the average size garden. I don't know how I'll feel later on but up to now it is a cracker taking most of what I've fed through it. I'm still feeding stuff through because my garden is a mess. I've checked the blade and it's standing up very well.

Purchased this last Autumn and waited till now to comment.
All I will say is ignore Wapping Richard and go with Computer Dave
I've not owned a shredder before but this does the job. I researched quite a bit - particularly Amazon's reviews. And this shredder hasn't let me down. Huge bushes shredded in 10 mins and down to less than a full bag - which in itself mulches away in about 6 weeks. Haven't had to replace a blade or turn it round yet.
P.s. who's now singing the Barry White Classic...
Great Shredder (within it's capability) July 25, 2010

I selected the AXT Rapid 2200 Shredder after reading the Amazon user-reviews. After many years of Shredder purchase/use I am convinced that 2 types of Shredder are required for the average garden - one such as the AXT Rapid 2200 for the small-stuff & a larger slow-speed/high-torque unit for the larger branches. I have that combination now (or I will have when I replace the defective Electrical Cut-out Device on the large-unit). This also is a Bosch Model.
The AXT Rapid 2200 is the second "small-stuff" Bosch-Shredder I have purchased. The original had a "corkscrew" cutting action, & gave good service, but wear of the corkscrew blade brought it to the point of poor performance. I looked at replacing the cutting parts myself, but the parts-cost alone was considerable & I decided that the difficulty of repair warranted purchase of the apparently-superior AXT Rapid 2200 unit. This proved to be the better decision. I expected heavy wear-rate of the Blade from the user-comments, (& also because of the arduous duty that the blade has to do). I have not had the unit long, & recently rotated the Blade to use its second cutting-edge. I will be purchasing a new Blade in the very near future. The beauty of the Bosch Units I now have is that the Blades are so easy to change, & on changing the machine perform as new, giving maintenance at a fraction of new-unit cost. When I fit a new blade I will be showing the old one to local repair-shops to see if there is local facility to improve on the hand-held grinder refurbishment that I would be limited to.
I fully recommend the AXT Rapid 2200 unit for small-stuff use. Anyone expecting this unit to action large-branches will be disappointed. Get the larger Bosch slow-speed machine for that duty. I would like one-unit to do both jobs, but after a few years of shredding experience I am not living in hope. However, when shredding think Bosch, you will not go far wrong.
