Pole Pruning Saw 27 Foot Long Handle Adjustable Length, Tree Pruner Tree Loppers Long Reach for Palm Oak High Branches ;with Carry Bag and Sturdy Pole, Cuts Clean and Fast

I bought the 8m(26ft) version which comes with 8 x 1m extensions. And having disposed of 11 limbs of various sizes in <2hrs, I am very pleased with my purchase. I used 5, 6 & 7 for various branches from ~1" upto over 4" and it made very quick work of them all. Maybe 5 minutes of cutting for the largest; and much of that was me taking a few seconds rest between bursts of sawing. (I'm 66y/o) It gets heavy and bendy; but if the made it less bendy it would be heavier; and if they made it lighter it would be more bendy. I think they got the balance spot on. The hardest part of using it is guiding the blade to a suitable place to cut. The length, weight and wobble make it tricky to position but once done the cutting is relatively simple and very efficient. (Quicker than my bow saw by a good margin.) The trick is to get the blade into the crook of a V and let the side of the blade run against the minor limb as you cut the main branch. Takes a couple of attempts to get the knack, but get easier with practice.

Very useful bit of kit

The only downside is that it is very flexible at full length making it difficult to manoeuvre and awkward to lift off the floor. It maybe easier to use with a second person adding the extension’s so it can kept vertical.

Like many people my neighbours are absolute c*nts & have overgrown trees they don’t maintain. I’ve had 3m poles plus me to reach 5m but doesn’t touch the sides to the high branches. To get a tree surgeon to climb the tree to cut the tree back out of my garden was going to cost upwards of £1,000. This cost like £66 & took me 3 hours. I also then used an electric saw when the branches fell to cut up small & throw back in the cu*ts garden. The saw represents incredible value for money & is a well built saw & pole. The pole does flex at length so the trick is to let the saw do the work don’t push the saw down just gentle back & forth & the branch will cut. It has a very useful stop at each end which makes sure it doesn’t slip out when your going back & forth. This is possibly the best value garden tool I’ve ever brought. Comes with a spare blade so I think for most people it’ll be a tool for life to cover trees of any size.

Any kit to buy and have for that long reach outside with a large tall tree 10/10 also it's good quality and comes in a nice bag so you can pop it all back into when you are done with it and each part screws in and off so you can decide what size or reach you need to do your tree.

This has been such an asset for cutting down over hanging branches from neighbours trees. The blade slices through quite large branches and there is a spare. I am a 60 plus female and have found this tree pruner very useable.

Brilliant quality,each section locks into place easily the design is very cleverly done , the weight does get heavier the more sections that you put on so if your doing very high up branches probably better to have someone help, the thickness of each sections is the same as to stop it from bending the higher up you go , I cannot fault this product money well spent .

Ace product got the job done without a ladder and saved a fortune on hiring a professional only downside is it does flex a bit after 4 poles or more but it’s all in the balance blade cuts like a knife through butter but tighten the 2 nuts and bolts every now and again because the will become slack and fall off. Still can’t fault it 5 stars from me.
