NICE TOOL FOR A NICE PRICE!
By synz4gyvn on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2025
I selected these over others because I didn't want to spend alot (only have one tree), but wanted good quality, nevertheless. I know Fiskars to be a very reputable brand in cutting tools, as I have used their household scissors for years. The price is comparable with lesser known companies' products, available locally, so I think this is the better choice. One feature I really like is that to extend the handles, all you have to do is give a little clockwise twist, pull them towards you, then a counterclockwise twist to lock them in place, which is super efficient, requiring only one hand for each handle. Most others I've seen require you to engage some type of lever higher up on each of the handles, in order to be able to extend them, then re-lock the lever afterwards, cumbersome, and requiring both hands. They have soft foam handles, and include a plastic, protective cover for the blade head. I haven't used them yet, but am sure they'll be just fine for any 1.5 or <, branches, as advertised.

Plastic parts seem short-lived & they attached Stiff Info/Warranty Card to lopper! Annoying.

I had my doubts when I saw it arrive and realized how small 15 inches really is! However, the blades looked sharp and the weight was nice, not too heavy. The device has a lot of plastic parts, which was worrisome, as I figured they probably won't last long. The blades especially worried me, because although one blade is metal, the other one seems to be plastic!? Well, the first time I used it (today), the plastic blade developed a crack! :( UGH. It does cut 1.25 inch branches, wet or dry, which impressed me, but will probably break next time I use it. Also, Fiskars for some unimaginable reason "hard-wired" their stiff warranty card onto the lopper with a screw! Now I need to find a Phillips screw driver before I can get rid of that card. What a nutsy thing to do! (Do companies ever consider the HASSLES they cause their users with such self-serving silly stunts like this, making it troublesome just to get rid of their warranty card? Why not use string or a plastic tie to attach the card to the device, instead of screwing it on like this? Annoying--"screwy" in fact (LOL)!) I probably won't buy another Fiskars item after this. I have a bigger "no-name" lopper coming tomorrow and I hope I will be happier with it. Will let you know! ;-P
