Spare yourself the effort of climbing trees to reach far-off branches with this convenient and powerful telescoping pruning tool from Fiskars. The Pruning Stik's fiberglass outer pole and aluminum inner pole extend to a full 12 feet, allowing you to trim upper branches from the safety and security of the ground. Its extremely sharp cutting blade can be manipulated by pulling a rope or the pole's ergonomic handle. In addition, the sturdy cutting head rotates 240 degrees to enable you to choose the proper cutting angle for branches up to 1-1/4 inches in diameter. A 15-inch Woodzig saw blade is also included for added cutting power.

Summary: Should have bought this thing years ago
Comment: Incredible. For years, I've been using an older rope-type Fiskars pruner I got from my Dad as I didn't want to buy a new one, though I've never seen the Pruning Stik before. What used to take me 2 afternoons took me a few hours, and this time I pruned about 2x the amount I did before. That makes it over 4x more efficient than the older pruner set.
Some key benefits, that you've probably already read in the product description:
- Very easy to quickly extend and retract. Actually very fun. Clicks like a good tool should.
- Very long. Longer than my old pruner.
- Even when fully extended, it's light enough that you can still control it.
- Nylon belt embedded in the channel in the handle doesn't tangle up in branches or swing around like the rope.
- Great cutting blade. Very strong.
- Upwards pointing blade makes everything much easier. Rotating head is nice, but I've only used it a few times.
I still use the old pruner, but just the saw attachment for thicker branches. The saw for the Pruning Stik is good and convenient, but you still have to screw and unscrew it on and off. It's easier to just pick up the other saw and put it down again.
Sure it seems expensive compared to the other products, but you'll love using it.

Summary: Fiskers Pole tree trimmer is Fabulous!
Comment: The Fiskars telescoping tree trimmer is fabulous! This is the second one that I purchased from Amazon. It is so easy to use and so incredibly sharp that it makes tree pruning and sawing high branches a breeze. Fiskars makes great equipment and is a great company to deal with they give a lifetime guarantee on their trimmers.

Summary: Breaks easily, warranty misrepresented
Comment: Things to like:
Not much.
It does not have the dangling rope and handle my old unit had.
The rotating head is useful sometimes.
Things to dislike:
It does not have the power nor the longevity and strength of my old unit. (The old unit was purchased from Builder's Square many years ago. It was stolen, and I don't remember the brand name.)
Advertised - cuts up to 1-1/4 inch diameter. Well, yes if it is something very soft such as a vine stem. For oak, maple, hickory, 3/4 inch is about all it will manage.
Use: Both the head locking mechanism and the extension locking mechanism loosen up continuously. The saw attachment nut and bolt fell out and got lost almost immediately. They could have included a five-cent lock washer for that.
Longevity, strength: I used it for a couple of hours. The movable blade bent and the spring that retracts that blade snapped.
[...]
I will try Lowe's or Home Depot for some other brand next time.
