# STIHL: cutting edge power tools for all gardeners
## From cordless chainsaws to ride-on lawnmowers, STIHL power tools make
gardening easy for professionals and hobbyists alike, says Deborah Stone.

Ever since Andreas Stihl developed his first chainsaw in 1926, the company's
outdoor power tools have grown to be regarded as among the best investments on
the market.
STIHL garden power tools are a favourite of professionals, but they're on the
wish list of all gardeners in the know - whether they tend an estate or a
suburban garden.
And to make sure you get the right products for the job, the company only
sells through its national network of Approved Dealers, which offer a free
personal consultation and an expert support service.
The company is responsible for changing gardeners' expectations forever with
the first lightweight chainsaw for the domestic market, but products now
include hedge and grass trimmers, high-pressure cleaners, hi-tech leaf blowers
and even protective trousers and ear defenders.
It's still the world's best-selling chainsaw brand, with an extensive range of
different models to choose from, including petrol, electric and cordless
battery options.

There is even a sister brand of lawn and garden care products; the VIKING
range. This offers really good-quality electric lawnmowers for the average
family lawn, petrol mowers and a whole fleet of ride-on mowers. VIKING
shredders take care of your garden waste, and VIKING tillers make it easier to
prepare your vegetable beds and allotments.
So while STIHL is the first choice of many professionals, it has plenty to
offer both suburban lawn lovers and cottage gardeners too.
As you would expect from a firm at the cutting edge of gardening equipment, it
is continually developing its range. And its advanced low-emission, fuel-
efficient technologies also make its products increasingly eco-friendly.
Although professionals may opt for one of the many powerful petrol-fuelled
products, domestic users may prefer the electric or battery-powered tools,
which are lighter and quieter. For instance, the new HSA 65 battery-powered
hedge trimmer is a quiet yet powerful tool that lets you tidy your hedges
quickly and easily. It runs on an AP 80 lithium-ion battery that operates for
up to 45 minutes after charging and cuts through 22mm diameter branches with
ease.
As you would expect, safety is paramount. STIHL tools are packed with
innovative safety features to keep the user safe and comfortable. Plus, the
network of STIHL Approved Dealers is always on hand to offer expert advice
before you start work. There's a wide range of protective clothing available,
too.
To make sure you get the best from your garden power tools, STIHL's network of
highly trained Dealers will give you good maintenance advice and offer full
after-sales service you can rely on.
