- Thick branches
- Extended reach
- Leverage
A compound-action bypass lopper whose DualLINK gearing and telescoping handles let you cut 1 3/4 in branches and reach well overhead without a ladder. It is heavier than a fixed lopper and flexes at full extension, but the leverage and adjustable reach make it a versatile one-tool answer for mixed pruning around fruit trees and shrubs where reach is the recurring problem.
Pros
- DualLINK compound action multiplies force so 1 3/4 in limbs cut with roughly a third less effort
- Handles telescope from 27.5 to 37.5 in to reach high or deep branches without a ladder
- ComfortGEL grips and a shock bumper reduce the jarring that tires wrists on repeated cuts
Cons
- Telescoping steel handles are heavier than fixed aluminum loppers of the same reach
- Extended to full length the tool flexes and is harder to aim precisely
- Non-stick blade coating wears with heavy use and eventually needs resharpening
