 Lightweight, and SHARP! Apr 08, 2004
By Savee Dadee
I recently picked up this item at my local hardware store, and found it extremely lightweight. The Fiskers pruning blade is very SHARP. Extending the pole to its max did not stress the fiberglass pole one bit. But like a fiberglass fishing pole, it did create some BOUNCing action while sawing. None the less, the job got done! Suggestion, after you are done pruning, give it a spray with Pam Cooking Spray then store. I also found the branch shears very useful for those limbs less than 1" in diameter. One pull on the rope cut these little guys with ease. However I would want the rope attached to the shears a little shorter.

 Waste of money Dec 15, 2008
By mhtones
Don't waste your money. The saw blade on ours was only strong enough to cut very very small branches (less than 1" in diameter). The leverage needed to saw and the instability of the extension pole makes this part of the tool almost useless. The pruning tool also requires too much pull to make this useful. The blade often got stuck in branches less than 3/4" in diameter. Had to pull so hard on the rope that the extension clamp and pully system broke. It will also cost me money to dispose of this tool at the dump. Won't fit in my garbage can. Maybe I can use my next pruner to cut this up so it fits in the garbage! We've borrowed other similar tools that work 10x better. Fiskars should stick to scissors which they do manufacture well. Disappointed because we trusted the Fiskars' brand name until this experience.
 Dissapointed Jan 20, 2012
By Bob
I've used Fiskars hand tools and thought this product would work as well. Not the case. The rope mechanism tangles easily in whatever you're cutting and the rope frayed badly on the guide after several cuts. It worked better after I filed the sharp edge.
Fiskars Tree Pruner Sep 03, 2011
By Shirley A. Clemens
"Paintmaster"
I purchased a Fiskars replacement head this past April. I used the new replacement head only a few times when the rope started to break apart. The material used is a nylon material and not strong enough for pruning tree branches. My old Fiskars unit came with a rope that was made of a strong material simular to a clothline material. Fiskars should replace this cord with a stronger cord Fiskars Green Thumb Tree Pruner (93936993) POLE NOT INCLUDED
 Replacement Trimmer Head Works Jan 05, 2011
By smartguy38
This trimmer is designed for homeowners who need a long reach trimmer for preiodic use. It's not substantial enough for professional use. The product is just the trimmer head so you have to have the original pole to attach it. The part came in the original manufacturer's plastic display and included the saw blade. It fit the pole perfectly. The pulley design for the loper blade is the original which sometimes allows the rope to get tangled. The saw part is sharp and works well on the pull stroke. The long reach of the pole is a real plus and is why I purchased this replacement head rather than buy a whole different trimmer.
