Moving house and emptying the shed. There are 4 hedge trimmers! AIBU to think WTAF and that at least 2 need to be rehomed?

According to my DP, who is a fan of gardening, "you have a different cream for every type of skin on your body, allow for a few specialised hedge trimmers".

We have two and, honestly, I would prefer another one with a swivel blade for the tops. They all do different things. If you have 4 identical ones, then definitely can get rid of a couple.

No idea but if he could bring one here and do my hedges I would agree with him that he needs all of them. If not I’m with you.

Two is fair. We have a long one and short one. Because the long one is heavy and so only used as needed.

DH has four. One petrol, one electric, corded and two rechargeable.

All different reaches - in his defence we have a lot of hedges

How many shavers, epilators, tweezers, razors or other hair removal devices do you own?

Hedge trimmers come in similar ranges. If they are 4 identical ones though, that's ridiculous.

1 pair of tweezers. I embrace the fur. And even if I didn’t I doubt a razor would be 6 feet long and need both hands to lift it! Probably get my tweezers and a hairbrush in the lorry without too much bother!
