What Customers Are Saying
These loppers are generally considered a high-quality and effective tool for cutting thick branches and shrubs. Customers praise the sharp blades, sturdy construction, and ratcheting mechanism that provides extra leverage and cutting power. Many note the loppers can handle branches up to 2 inches in diameter with ease. However, some had issues with the handles not being durable enough for the amount of force the blades can generate, and a few felt the product was overpriced. Overall, the consensus is that these are excellent loppers for cutting through larger, tougher vegetation, though they may not be the best choice for smaller trimming tasks.

Would RecommendI really like these ratcheting trimmers because they give you leverage to cut bigger branches. I had an inexpensive one that fell apart but these seems much better quailty and I think it will last.

Good product
Would RecommendLabel description said the lopper would handle up to two inches and it didn’t lie. Pretty sure it handled a few branches larger than that.

Don't buy it.
Would Not RecommendLiked the ratcheting feature. Handles, however, won't handle the pressure that the head is capable of producing. Lots of flex and I had to be careful because I legitimately thought I ess going to snap one. For what it costs, this is unacceptable.

Can't Find Replacement Blade
These loppers worked very well on softer and green wood, and the 2" claim is not exaggerated. They are easy to use and, with proper technique, do not require a lot of strength. However, I tried them out on some dry Osage Orange (Hedge) and had considerable difficulty, even on some of the smaller cuts (~1"). In the process of cutting the hedge, the cutting edge bent sideways, making the edge very ragged. They still cut, but not as well. Dry hedge is very hard, tough, and difficult to cut (ev...

Bad packaging
Would RecommendThe box had 2 fiskars for cutting in it with only air plastic bubbles. The box was torn where the shear tips tore/busted through box. They were all scratched up on sides & tips. Who ever packed these did a very poor job. These could have easily hurt my feet/toes if the slid out. They did work well. I only used the fiskars for a little while as I wasn't sure if I was going to return due to poor packaging causing cosmetic damage.

Video representation
Would Not RecommendVideo doesn’t represent the intent item that it is supposed to. How am I supposed get an actual representation when it is not even showing the item that you are selling???

Junk - Plastic handle broke first use
Would Not RecommendJunk. The ratchet is a gimmick and doesn't work. On first use cutting 1.75" diameter stick, I heard a crack and saw that the plastic (yes, plastic) between the handle and the cutting head bad cracked. Will be returning these and shopping for something better made.
