What Customers Are Saying
The product is a mixed performer. On the positive side, it is effective for cutting small to medium-sized branches, with a sharp saw blade and good reach. The pole is praised as strong and sturdy when extended. However, the locking mechanism often fails, causing the pole to slip or extend unexpectedly, making the pruner difficult to control. There are also concerns about durability, with reports of plastic components breaking or wearing out. Some users find the pruner overly heavy and top-heavy, challenging to maneuver.

This is my Go-To tool for most pruning and trimmin
I bought this product about two years ago and it has become one of my most used tools in the lawn and garden area. I read some of the negative reviews on this tool but believe most are using it improperly. Although it is sometimes difficult to get the blade into areas with lots of branches, when properly used, it trims and cuts like a hot knife through soft butter. The blade angle can be adjusted which makes all the difference in making the proper cut. The trimmer works great if you can get clea...
