Gets to the high places.

I picked this item up on sale from Sears. I used it to prune the high branches out of a lilac and saw the dead out of two trees with no problems. The lopper did not bind up or get stuck like some of the cheaper models do. The saw blade cuts nicely but it can be difficult to get started when the pole is near its full extension. Once the pole is extended to about 12 ft. or longer, it can become a bit unweildly. That has improved with use so I think that may be more operator issue than tool issue. Also, this is quite a workout on your shoulders, so don't over do it your first time out if you don't do this kind of work often.

I would recommend this tool to a friend or family member.

Junk
I bought this tree pruner just over a year ago. There is one pole within another pole which you can extend to adjust the height of pruner. There was a black ring around where the two poles connected which could be tighten to secure the two poles together so they would not move as you sawed/pruned the branches. After using this pruner one time this black ring broke off so now I can not secure the two poles. I put the pruner away for the year and forgot about it until I used it on a neighbors tree earlier this year and remembered it was broken. I can not get a replacement "black ring" anywhere. Craftsman does not sell them separately and of course its too much work for them to obtain a new one from the manufacturer. I will not be buying another tree pruner from Craftsman.

better than expected

I didn't expect to be able to trim and saw so easy with this tool, however; it made cleaning, pruning, and trimming a snap. The trees look so much better after a winter of non-maintenance. I like this tool, it really helps with pruning and trimming.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Nut and screw on blade falls off

Works great!

I bought this item to trim some trees in my backyard from time to time. It's much nicer than other (cheaper) pruners that I've used. The handle has a nice pad so your hands don't get tired. This item will be a big help and the best part is, it's covered under the Craftsman warranty...

Save your money!

I bought this pruner to trim palm trees and It was a waste of money. 1). Its too heavy 2). the blade is dull 3). the telescoping pole either gets stuck or will not stay connected. Save your money on this piece of junk.

Great for small branches

I was lucky enough to pick this up on sale. I bought it and put it to use right away. After about a week of using it the metal head which hooks the branch and hides the blade actually snapped. Part was due to the fact I may have been trying to cut a branch slightly bigger than this was intended for. I took it back to sears and got a brand new one. No trouble. No questions asked. I realized then that this was made for small branches and if I need to cut down anything larger than about an inch I would have to put the saw extention on. So my advise. Remember what it is intended to cut. Don't try to over due it and you will be happy with this.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

14 ft tree pruner with saw blade and trunk clipper with rope.

Long and sturdy for reaching tall limbs impossible to reach easily. 14' reach gets to most of the higher branches I needed to cut. Rope and handle were quite strong.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
