Stihl GHE105 Electric review
Test scoreShow Context
- Impact
The Stihl GHE105 is a compact electric impact shredder that can shred branches up to a maximum diameter of 35mm, so it's aimed at anyone whose garden doesn't call for a lot of large-scale pruning. Stihl machines often do well in our tests, so we were keen to see if this shredder would follow that trend.
