Customer Review: Does its job, and does it well
Summary: 5 Stars
This is my first experience with a pruner, so while I can't compare it to other models, I can at least review the unit itself. I recently moved into a new house and my insurance company requested that I trim back some branches that were touching the roof. This model gets pretty good reviews here on Amazon, and I wanted to make sure I got something with a good reach and a good drive system. This model satisfies both requirements.
I found the reach of the pruner to be very good. It's true that once you have it extended out to its maximum length it can get a bit unwieldy. That's to be expected, though, as you're now working with a 14-foot pole. My arms did end up getting a bit tired, but I was able to make it through without much problem. I really appreciated that extra length, as I didn't have to get out the ladder. Adjusting the length is very easy thanks to the twist-lock adjustment. The padded grip is a nice addition. I imagine a non-padded pole would really add to your fatigue level.
The pruner does a good job of slicing through small branches, up to about 1 inches or so. Anything bigger and it would start to cut, but not be able to make it through. I did have the chain drive get twisted on me, but it only happened once. Branches had suddenly become much harder to cut. After a bit of investigation, I was able to see that the chain had twisted, and the rope was now coming out of the side of the chain guide, instead of the back. It was really just a minor annoyance and easily fixed.
I found that the rope handle didn't work very well. The handle has a groove that you slip the rope into, which should grab the rope and keep the handle in place. I may have been using it wrong, but it would just slip down the rope whenever I tried to lock it into place and use it. I ended up just wrapping the rope around my hand and giving it a good pull, then moving my hand up, and pulling again.
The saw was effective, but a bit hard to get started. The best method I found was to take a number of downward cuts on the branches, just to get the cut started. Once the cut is going, you can then start using a normal back-and-forth cut. This can be a bit tedious, especially on wobbly branches where you need to wait for the branch to stop swaying after each cut, but it works. The saw was plenty sharp and did a pretty good job of cutting through the thicker branches. The rope can get in the way, but I found that it was easily managed by just holding onto the rope, snug against the pole, as you cut.
All in all, I'm very pleased. I was able to trim back the necessary branches quite easily, and actually look forward to using this tool more in the future. There's a small bit of learning required when using a pruner, but once you figure out a good "system," it's smooth sailing.
