![]() So I bought the shredder, an Al-Ko H1100 (see photo), to give it a go as the idea seemed sensible it should save me time chopping up the woody bits and would ultimately make better compost. I had not given much thought to how I prepared material for my compost bins until that moment – all I did was to chop it up into convenient lengths so that it fitted into the bins and wondered why the results were pretty average. ![]() Sometime around 15 years ago before garden shredders were an established product I saw a demonstration of a small Al-Ko electric shredder at a garden centre. My reviews aim to give more depth to the ones I have used. Usually these do not cover the machines I am interested in, nor do they offer anything other than a superficial comparison. Even with the internet there is not much review information around other than the odd newspaper or Consumers Association group tests. I have found it a bit like trying to buy financial services – the only sources of advice seem be the dealers who sell them and there is little if any independent information around. ![]() I have found it very difficult to get real advice on what machines are really like. The aim of this review and the other garden shredders in this blog is to pass on my experience of the machines I have used. This is the first of four reviews I shall be posting on my experience with garden shredders over the next couple of weeks. ![]()
