    Comments about Clip & Shear Extension Handle:

    This item is very flimsy and difficult to use. I gave up and now crawl along the ground to use the clippers around the garden bed. It's just easier that way

    Buy the shears, but skip this handle.

    Comments about Clip & Shear Extension Handle:

    The shears this handle was supposedly designed for work great. This thing is poorly designed, and doesn't come close to fitting the shears properly. We had to use duct tape to make it kind of work. Easily the worst Mothers day gift I've ever bought for my wife. From now on, tools will only be bought locally, so I can take them back and talk to someone about them. Good idea... but poor design.

    Poor design to holding on the clippers. Must use an Ace Bandage to attach it for the purpose it was made for(Ha! Ha!)

    Comments about Clip & Shear Extension Handle:

    The clipper is a real boon to trimming and edging, though I'd like to be able to purchase an extra battery with the clipper. It does a nice job...

    The add-on handle is another story: I haven't been able to get it to keep a steady (sometimes ANY) electrical connection; the handle is wobbly no matter how I've tried to firm it. Good idea, but not workable as is.

    Comments about Clip & Shear Extension Handle:

    This looks like a great idea, but is hard to use. The trimmer doesn't attach easily to the handle, and tends to fall off easily also. The on/off buttons on the handle tend to not work also, probably because the connection where the handle and trimmer plug into each other doesn't work well. It's easier to skip it and just bend over to trim. The trimmer part works really well, but the handle was not worth the money.
