What Customers Are Saying
The Telescoping Power-Lever Bypass Lopper is a versatile and effective gardening tool. Key features include telescoping handles that provide excellent reach and leverage, comfortable ergonomic grips, sharp precision-ground steel blades, and a power-lever mechanism that delivers up to twice the cutting power. The tool is well-built, durable, and rust-resistant. However, some users reported issues with the locking mechanism on the telescoping handles, which can affect safety and usability when fully extended. A few customers also experienced premature breakage of the handles or other components.

Would RecommendWe absolutely have loved these loppers for the past 3years. The house we bought had an overgrown backyard with unkept plants and trees. (I wish I had taken a picture of the before we started yard). We have trimmed, cut up branches to be able to burn with these loppers without sharpening or failure…until today. One of the handles fell apart when I extended it. Thankfully my husband was able to fix it & you can’t even tell it fell apart. I will be replacing them if anything happens without a doubt...

Would Not RecommendPurchased from 'The Fiskars Store' via Amazon: Fiskars Loppers for Tree Trimming, Heavy Duty, with Extendable Handle (24.5"-37" Range), Sharp Bypass Steel Blade Tree Branch Cutter up to 1.5-Inch Diameter Cut Capacity review: They worked great for the first month or so, then one of the extendable handles would not lock-in when fully extended. Now the handle just spins around and it's impossible to get any leverage. They're still usable at the 'short' setting but I specifically bought the heavy-...

Steel snapped within one week
These loppers snapped in half while attempting to cut a small sumac tree just an inch and half in diameter. Total junk product. I chose the Fiskars loppers because I thought this was a quality and reputable brand. Utterly disappointed and shocked at how easily these loppers catastrophically failed.

I love these loppers!
Would RecommendI bought my loppers many years ago (maybe 10-ish) and I have done so much lopping every year. They make my pruning and lopping sooo much easier. They give me a lot of leverage in cutting larger branches and give me a great reach too. Everything is intact and other than an occasional sharpening and maybe a bit of oil, it's my reliable tool. I was just looking to see if these are still made and was disappointed to read reviews about the extender lever breaking on newer ones. Could be just a m...
From Fiskars
Nice tool
Would RecommendI like these....I am trimming some overgrown juniper and they are a little hard to get up under the branches (on the ground) so I chop down from the top/
Verified Purchaser
Glad to hear you're putting the lopper to good use! Juniper can be tricky to navigate, but tackling it from the top sounds like a solid approach.... Read More

The Good and the Bad.
Would RecommendCutting action in 25" position is great. When extended to 37", cuts require the wingspan of an albatross. Crux: plastic locking mechanism...broke on first use. Hoping for replacement of tool or peice of plastic!
From Fiskars
Glad to hear the cutting action is working well for you at 25", but sorry to hear about the locking mechanism. You can file a warranty claim here: htt... Read More
Locking handles
Would RecommendThe best part is the way the telescoping handles lock with the flip down locks. I have another pair that twist lock, and ALWAYS unlock and slip. These new ones won’t do that.
