A:  The weight is listed in the the specs section of the description. Just scroll down to it. The weight is 6.35 lbs.

A:  Not heavy to use for shaping shrubs about 5 to 7 pounds

A:  I am 60yrs old. It is ok to me. I cannot say the exact weigh unless putting it on a scale. I feel it fine if cutting 2 or 3 bushes, but like other tools if cutting many bushes and holding it for a long time l will feel pressure on my arm muscle. Compared to a gas one, it has much less weigh. The only problem is that I need to watch for the electric wire all the time since cutting the wire will result in time to repair and shock possibly.
