Fa egregiamente il proprio lavoro, bisogna tenere conto che alla massima estensione necessita di una buona dose di forza.

works well just don’t try cutting any very large branches you’ll be at it forever

I have in no way been compensated for this review… so let me start by saying: I LOVE this saw.
We have a number of oaks (among other trees) on our property, and they hadn’t been pruned in many years. There was a lot of clutter in the canopy, and it was impossible to reach with our “standard” pole saws, so we decided to give this one a try. It comes with 3 blades – and 2 separate cutting heads. Two blades are identical and feature hooks at either end so that they don’t slip out of the cut, and one is the more typical curved pruning blade that attaches to the pruning shear head. You would use this one to go after smaller branches.
First: the blades are sharp and cut very nicely. Like I said, I’ve been working on oak trees and cutting 6″ diameter branches with a 20′ pole attached, and while I’m definitely getting a workout, I’m also quite happy with how these blades are cutting.
Second: the pole design is brilliant. The sections screw together, and then a spring catch locks into place. To disassemble, press the spring catch while starting to turn to loosen the screw connection. It probably sounds complicated, but it’s not; when you see it and use it, it makes perfect sense. The sections are 4′ long so you can tailor the length of the pole pretty precisely for the area you need to work in.
I’ve seen some comments that mention the tool being ungainly or hard to control… well, if you’ve got a 24 foot long lever arm, and you’re trying to control it by holding onto it by the last 4 feet, it’s going to be a challenge. It’s easy to add and subtract length to the pole for each cut – yes, it takes an extra minute, but spending an extra minute for safety and ease of control is just common sense. If you have to cut with the saw at its maximum length, you should be aware that it can be hard to position a 24′ pole precisely by holding onto one end of it, and that this does require some upper body strength. That’s not a ding against this product, is a feature of the laws of physics.
The saw comes with a nice canvas carrying bag that fits everything, and also comes with a hard plastic sleeve that covers the saw blade so that it doesn’t snag.
For anyone who needs a pruning saw that’s capable of taking down larger branches at distances greater than 10 feet, I’d recommend this saw without hesitation. For the capability you get, it’s a screaming bargain.

After a couple of high $ bids from tree pruning services we invested less than $100 in this tool, which did everything we needed. The length of the segmented pole is increased as needed by adding segments, which is very easy to do. there are two different tools that can be installed on the business end of the pole. One is a conventional bypass pruner actuated with a rope and a short saw similar to typical hardware store pole saws. The other is a larger saw blade with a hook at the end. This blade is very well designed and functional. With this we were able to saw off a 5 inch diameter branch at more than 20 ft elevation without climbing or standing on a ladder, and smaller branches even higher. At the longer extensions the tool gets a bit heavy. I am 76 and in ok shape, and could use it up to about 18 ft extension. My son is stronger and could use it at full extension with some moderate difficulty. Overall the tool is very well designed and constructed. It comes with a spare hook type saw blade and a nice carry/storage case. It is easy to give this 5*.

5/5 stars! I’m thoroughly impressed with this product, which has exceeded my expectations in several ways. The expandable feature was a top priority for me, and I’m happy to report that it works seamlessly. The blade is remarkably sharp, making it easy to use and efficient. Additionally, the tool itself is surprisingly light, making it comfortable to maneuver and reducing fatigue.
I’ve found this product to be a game-changer for my needs, and I appreciate the attention to detail in its design. If you’re in the market for a reliable and versatile tool, I highly recommend giving this one a try. The only potential area for improvement could be the inclusion of additional accessories or attachments to further enhance its capabilities. Overall, however, I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase.

For consumer use, this is a stellar product for $90. The lopper and blades (3 of them!) are all high quality, all work remarkably well with little effort. It’s easy to put together, and strikes a great balance between “light” and “wobbly”. It could be stiffer but that would add weight. I’m 60 years old in average shape, had no problem operating this at 16′, and could probably use it at 20′ without killing myself. I put it together at the full 27′ (which indeed measured 27′) just to evaluate. I was able to stand it up, but it was heavy enough and wobbly enough at 27′ that I was afraid to move it. This was in a clear area though. If I had stood it up right against a tree right where I needed to cut I think it would have been maneuverable. I think.
The one thing I found odd was how the tubes attach. They screw together, and when the threads bottom out a tab pops into place to hold it there. No way it could unscrew by accident, that’s pretty trick. The odd part is that it uses square Acme threads which by design have some built-in clearance, so it has a tiny amount of wobble even when tight. At 8′ you won’t feel it. 12′ you’ll barely feel it. 16′ you can feel it but it works fine. 27′ it still works but it’s a little spooky. I’m guessing it’s like this to keep from stress cracking anything; the manual has a warning to “not wobble it vigorously as if performing a failure test”. I’d call it a “quirk” rather than a “problem”, just note that if you abuse it, that’s where it will fail.
For $90 for homeowner use I’d buy it again in a split second. Love this thing. And it’s orange, how cool is that!

Haben ein Grundstück mit ca. 40, über 100 Jahre alten Bäumen, wo regelmäßig (nicht nur Totholz) ausgeschnitten werden muss. Die Astsäge hat sich vollkommen bewährt! Sehr scharf, gutes Handling. Bei voller Länge braucht man etwas Übung und Kraft, damit man das Gerät überhaupt gestemmt bekommt, geht aber. Absolute Empfehlung! Spart mir einen professionellen Baumkletterer oder -dienstleister (der meist auch nur mit so einer Astsäge, allerdings von Stihl zum 10-fachen Preis, anrückt)

This is really an excellent product! I can’t believe how much you get for the price. It’s very easy to put together and use. It’s very well designed. I’ve used it using three sections with the pruner and the branch saw and it worked great. The only problem is when I was using the saw the attachment came loose. It screws onto the last pole. All the other sections, both screw on and have a snap on. They can never come loose. I just wonder why they put the top section with the cutting tool as only a screw on??? But like I said, it really works and it’s a great value!

We had a few high limbs that were broken from recent storms. Since i’m too old to be climbing trees anymore and don’t like being on a ladder with saw of any kind cutting branches, I thought this would be a great idea. I have a chainsaw on a pole as well but it wasn’t close to being long enough. It arrived with all the parts, assembly is easy. I cut 2 dozen limbs of varying size at a height of 10’ to 22’ + with this tool. Blades are sharp, comes with extra blade, and the pruning tool worked as well. For the price, I consider it money well spent. Storage bag is a bonus. I’m not saying it’s easy holding a long pole 20 odd feet in the air and cutting but it worked. Go slow and steady.

This Extentable tree pruner by Vevor is very strong, easy to put together . I have only used 3 poles to get to the height that I needed. It does take a while to get used to and I found it easier to put on ground rather than hold as this makes it stronger to work with. The only thing which the rope that you pull to cut the branches , you have to make sure it is behind the scissors incase of cutting it. So far so good great piece of kit and love the bag. The blades and scissors are all well made. Looks like it will last a very long time. My high trees look much better now and did not take too long. I thought that doing a bit a day is easier. You do have to be able to hold and manipulate the tree pruner the more poles you put on . But made a difficult job easy instead of using a ladder.
