Bosch hedge trimmer and pole saw - for spares or repair (Lower Earley RG6)
Bosch heavy duty electric hedge trimmer and pole saw I have used this to trim some very tall hedges we inherited when we moved into our home but no longer need it now that we have reduced their height It has been stored in our shed for over a year and when I tested it before listing on freegle all the components seemed OK separately but I could not get them to work together. The base unit powers up and spins the drive shaft when switched on with nothing attached, but when the trimmer or saw are attached I could not get it to drive them. Hence I am listing this for spares or repair. This is a chunky unit driven by mains electric (so it has a power cord, not a battery) Pros: . powerful enough to cut tough hedges . long enough to cut very tall hedges . giving it away now as this is a good time of year to cut some hedges Cons: . heavy . will give your shoulders a workout, especially if you use the extension pole The oil reservoir for the pole saw looks empty which I suspect means it may be leaking a little. I can refill it for you before you take it away or you might prefer not to risk a leak into your vehicle. Available for collection from our home in Lower Earley.

Working treadmill (Earley RG6)
This is a Roger Black "Gold" Treadmill, model AG-10302 • It is working, but the running belt is frayed on one side and a small cover is missing, as you can see from the picture. • Other than that, the motor and drive belts look and work fine. • It can be folded down for transportation; details are in the manual () • It weighs 61 kg (134.5 pounds). It is 78 cm wide and 163 cm long. but It folds down to 66 cm, and is 132 cm high when in use. • I've checked that the speeds show on the console when the treadmill is working. They go up from gentle walking (0.5 mph) to fast running (10 mph) in small steps. The manual is in metric, giving the speeds in km/hour. • You can control the tilt, to make it feel like being on level ground or going up a 1 in 7 hill. • We are in St Peters Road, RG6 1PH; if you would like it I shall move it into our driveway and help you move it into your van or cat

Three-person sofa (Caversham RG4)
Need to give away by Sunday! A very well loved light beige/cream linen sofa from Habitat. Collection only. Size: 192 cm wide (arm rest to arm rest), 88 cm depth (back to front), 63 cm high (floor to top of arm rest). As it is over 20 years old, it has collected some stains overs the years on the cushions and arm rests and would benefit from cleaning its cushion covers and also spot cleaning the arm rests (removable covers are only on the cushions and not the sofa body). This was designed as a sofabed, but the pull-out for the bed is no longer operational - this should be used only as a normal sofa. Very solid and well made.
