Instead I simply poured the contents into my garden waste bin. Granted, the fully-leafed beech branches I tested it with remained in one mangled piece as opposed to being completely cut all the way through, but that didn’t bother me because I wasn’t considering using the mulched results as garden fertiliser. Its drum simply churns continuously, chucking the remnants of bushes and trees into its ample 50-litre collection box. And that’s why this writer is such a fan of the brand.īeing of the drum variety, the Cobra is exceptionally quiet in operation – in fact it makes far less noise than a cordless lawnmower. In fact, there are spare parts for almost every part of this machine – and every other Cobra product. I did that but was amazed to discover that spares are readily available. Also be sure not to try and push in a branch that is clearly too big to fit through the soft rubbery porthole or you could damage the cutting plate. Just be sure to lop off any nubs and stalks beforehand and give it time to complete its task before stuffing in another branch. This model accepts branches of up to 4cm in diameter though, in essence, it will swallow anything you can fit through the top-mounted portal. On at least two occasions, I fed it about 25 beech tree branches with full foliage one after another and it just kept on churning. ![]() This writer has used the Cobra QS2500 on a number of occasions and it has excelled every time. Similar in both design and function to the popular Bosch AXT 25 TC, this drum shredder impresses in a number of ways but mostly on price. The Cobra QS2500 is our favourite garden shredder for performance, low noise level and price. Doesn't cut larger branches all the way though
