Plastic Part Broke
Would Not RecommendWorked OK until I dropped on on a sidewalk next to the hedges I was trimming. Little plastic locking mechanism latch on the top popped right off, broken, no way to fix it. Cheap construction, not made to last, and I'm replacing them with a Swiss made all metal competitor, where many reviewers have said that they've had the shears for decades.
Thank you for your feedback.
They are good for light trimming around the yard.

Make trimming bushes easier
Would RecommendI am replacing both products which are similar to what I had..both have been used already and made a difficult job much easier. The other two were about 9 yrs old and getting a bit dull.

Disappointed in this product, didn’t hold up
Would Not RecommendThey say lifetime guarantee, hah, they didn’t make it through one small bush trimming. After finishing, they did not want to close so I could lock them. I had to force them closed and pinched my finger. I returned them. Disappointed. Usually I’ve always had good experiences with this brand, not this time.

Look for other products for doing your pruning
Would Not Recommendthe product worked well at first for trimming small wood branches but after trimming about 20 branches now the hand pruner will not close and lock without some assistance and at a risk of cutting my fingers while trying to get it to close. BAD DESIGN/BAD QUALITY I would not recommend this product
