SK5 High-Performance Compound Action Anvil Lopper,Chops Thick Branches with Ease,2 Inch Cutting Capacity,28inch-40inch Telescoping Lopper, Tree Trimmer with Sturdy&Comfortable Handle

I've gone through a few loppers. The head on this one is big and sturdy and cuts through thick branches easier than any I've used. I don't like the ratcheting, this one is not, it is simple and effective. The extension is easy.The only improvement I would make is a thicker bar. This is the same bar everyone uses and I've bent them all. Going to be more careful with this one. Great design.

These loppers are perfect. They're lightweight and cut through some pretty substantial branches. Everyone who uses them loves them. I have trouble holding onto them when I'm working with a group. I'm sending the info on them to friend now who wants to purchase one for himself.

Strong. Actually saves getting out the saw for small limbs

I loved it! Cut branches as big as it could hold, for a wide variety of trees as well as brush, dead or alive. And.even a few roots (carefully, so as not to dull the blades). It cut whatever I put it to, with ease. I forgot about the extended handles until I got to some high, hanging branches. Extended them, and snipped them with off neatly. Fantastic tool. Recommend it to anyone with trees!!!

It cuts the thick branches better than any other lopper I've ever used. The locks on the telescoping handles are extremely easy to use.

The ease with which it.cuts thick branches is such a relief. I was used to trying to use a small hand saw to trim branches above my head on a ladder and the extension and blades handle this task unbelievably well! I paid $46 for them and now price is such an awesome bargain I am thinking about buying another one.

Purchased these for their long reach and reasonable price. They are a little on the heavy side which is the trade off if you want something that will last and easily cut through one inch diameter branches. People need to realize that in the fully extended mode you need to be careful to not apply too much leverage otherwise you risk breaking them - but this is just common sense which it appears many reviewers do not have. When used properly they are excellent loppers and appear to be quite durable. Very pleased so far and I've used them quite a bit.

These are actually some nice loppers , I've been through many sets over the years. None of them are going to last forever if you use them hard like I do. Some reviewers complain of handles not holding up , most likely they are cutting large limbs with them extended. The jaws on these will handle some pretty large limbs for a lopper and sometimes it is better to change up to your saw rather than over stress your loppers. They extend to a nice length and are stout. Common sense should prevail when using and maintaining tools , don't use TOO much force , keep them clean , oiled and sharp and you should get plenty of life out of them.
