Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

The first time I used the pruner, I thought I had missed the branch I was trying to cut. The cutting action was so smooth and easy, I didn't realize I had made the cut until the branch fell at my feet. It is a good length for trimming small fruit trees and large bushes while standing on the ground.

Love this tool

Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

Have only used it once but I trimmed several tree branches that were up higher than I could reach with my other tools and it worked as I had hoped and then some. I was surprised how well it cut the branches with little effort. So far I love it. If the blades stay sharp at least for a season or two this definitely deserves a 5 star. It would make a great gift!!! Perfect for ornamental size trees but good for anything in my yard.

Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

I am older and have problems with my hands. The pulling action is not very comfortable. I had to brace the handle against my stomach and pull with both hands to get enough strength to make the cuts on anything a little thick. It would be better if it was ratcheted.

Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

This is a wonderful pruner! Because it is light weight and has a long reach, you no longer have to get up and down and move a ladder. I have also used it to prune nuisance trees that grow up into my rows of evergreen trees - saves me from crawling beneath them to prune.

Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

I love it and bought on for my sister for Christmas. My brother borrowed to trim his trees. It's a hit!

I like tools that do one thing and do it exceptionally well. That's what this trimmer does. I'd also like to have one that is longer, to get the higher branches. This is a great trimmer - it is svelte and can reach between branches to get the branch you want and at the correct angle.

I love this tool, even though the rotating head often rotates unintentionally, if the lever gets caught in the branches. But it allows me to avoid a LOT of time perched on a ladder. I use for trimming trees and vines on my pergolas.

Pruning Stik Tree Pruner

By Teri keeper of Gods garden

Pros:

Comfortable Grip, Easy To Use, Lightweight, Long Reach, Sharp Blade

Best Uses:

Pruning 27 Hemlocks

Describe Yourself:

Master Gardener

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Pruning Stik Tree Pruner:

I have used the Stik Pruner on my Canadian Hemlocks for many years, since they were 5 foot tall.

Gives me the ability to shape chronically, and the height.

This year however; I had to use the pruner with a latter, since the Hemlocks are now 18 feet tall.

This is my second Stik tree pruner, and I would have no problem buying a third if the occasion ever came about.

Meant my needs completely.
