My wife bought these as she is partially disabled
Being keen on gardening she as always struggled to reach when pruning, but these have been absolutely great, she loves them.
It’s great that you can snip small branch/twigs and plants from a distance – and bring said bits back to dispose of etc – but I found it a little heavy and my hands ached for days after squeezing the end to get the blades to shut. Some disabled or elderly may find this impossible to use.
She loves it ! Easy to use and just the thing for deadheading plants and roses as keeps hold of cut off flower bud etc. to retrieve. Not for pruning thick twigs etc. Highly recommend.
Nice gadget. Head swivels so you can cut exactly where you want to. I use it for the pond plants. Easy to cut and remove the dead leaves without dropping them into the wate
make sure that the red side is on the outer side of cut other wise it won’t hold what you have cut so easy to use as a professional gardener these are a god send thank you
This was a very useful tool to use with one hand if anything I might have ordered the shorter one but it was manageable in the size. And not that heavy. The delivery was fast so happy with order and the tool.
Just what I wanted. Easy to hold and use, lightweight and a good reach. To be able to cut & then hold the piece you’ve cut is absolutely brilliant. Have only just used it as it was too hot before. Very pleased indeed.
This seems to be well made and very light l only received it yesterday ,so l have only tried it out ,but l think it will be useful as l am short and it will give me a longer reach.
I wish I had bought these secateurs years ago, they’re marvellous. Comfortable, easy to use and manoeuvrable. The bonus is the gripping of the plant snipped instead of falling into the flower bed.
I already had the shorter version and knew this would be very helpful.
Just be prepared that the longer length means that it can seem a bit heavy after a long pruning session!
So pleased to have seen someone on gardeners world using one of these. I can now reach to deadhead the flowers with ease. So liberating to be able to things for yourself instead of having to ask others to do them for you. Along with my trusty gripper I can enjoy working in my garden. If you have thought about getting one of these don’t hesitate any longer.
I have found the pruner extremely helpful, it has meant that I have not found it necessary to clamber around on steps. As described, it is suitable for thinner branches only, but it is a great advantage that it grips them so that they can be lifted down and not get caught up out of reach. Pruning a climbing rose was much less painful this year! It is light to use, much easier than loppers which are now reserved for the heavier jobs. Definitely recommended.
A very well made tool which works really well. I have a garden with steep banks and it is very difficult to get at some of my roses for dead heading but this tool makes the job easy and safe.
This is a brilliant piece of kit. It is great for reaching out of ordinary reach plants such as across a border or high on a trellis. It is especially good for trimming and dead-heading prickly plants & shrubs ie roses & pyracantha. When you are getting on in years, it also reduces the amount of bending when dead-heading low growing flowers. A must-have item for the older gardener.
It doesn’t always grab the smaller diameter branches but for me that is not a problem. A bonus for me is being able to prune the roses at the back of the bed from the lawn and path.
Product exceeded expectation and was delivered prior to delivery date. It was exactly what I needed as have had replacement hip operation and cannot bend to prune plants. A little heavy and hand can get caught in cutting “claws” but this is not a problem as you soon learn and does not detract from the produc
