ELECTRIC HEDGE TRIMMER

The patio duck

The more I look at it and the more I’m convinced that the day I designed this hedge trimmer I was thinking of a duck... maybe Scrooge McDuck or Donald Duck…something with an orange beak.

Valex wanted a clipper for household use that didn’t look too technical, something that looked reassuring, similar to another household appliance and that was cheap.

Thanks to its design and original solutions, the goal was met.
