Review on Fiskars PowerGear Super Pruner/Lopper, 15 Inch by Matt Simpson

Good thing Fiskars has a lifetime warranty otherwise 1 star. It will not cut 1 inch diameter branches. If you have enough strength for short stems and can cut through a thick branch, this won't happen. Mine broke after only 10 3/4" branches. No, I didn't drop it, I didn't use it as a hammer, I just pushed it onto branches. No twisting. It's not strong. I have a half dozen Fiskars tools and cherish them.Axes, long axes, shears, etc. These are for branches 1/2" or less in diameter, no more. Fiskars should resell them to become lawn mowers instead of pruners, or the plastic through something Replace more permanent.
