Amazon.com Product Description The Corona Clipper 12-foot compound-action tree pruner is a versatile tool that gives you the combined benefits of a saw and bypass pruner for fast, easy pruning; the telescoping fiberglass pole adjusts to precisely the right length for small, medium or larger trees. Pass-thru shearing action drives a blade sharpened on both sides directly through the center of the hook, giving you more even cutting power and resisting the binding common with side-mounted blades. The fully heat-treated, Teflon-coated cutlery steel blade easily prunes branches up to 1 inch in diameter, while the 13-inch conventional saw blade can be used to remove larger limbs. The pruning head is made of die cast zinc alloy for added durability, and the pruner features a compound-action pulley system that increases your leverage and triples your cutting power. The strong, lightweight fiberglass pole telescopes to 12 feet with an infinitely adjustable twist-lock extender and non-pinching twistlock adjustment. The unique internal stop prevents the inner pole from separating from the outer pole. The pole features a comfortable non-slip 24-inch cushioned grip to relieve hand and muscle stress.

Unhappy pruner April 5, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this pruner after my 22 years with my old pruner. We have a lot of trees, & the pruner gets used 4 to 5 times a year. This pruner constantly plugs, so I have to manually open the jaws. The screw holding the saw in place stripped & I cannot use the saw now. A very poor pruner for the price.. The handle is lightweight, so I now have an extension for my apple picker. Still looking for a new pruner.
It isn't a bad tool, and the manufacturer's guarantee is solid. September 16, 2007 I don't garden. But i have several over-grown trees that requrie cutting back to keep them from my roof and to allow some sunlight onto the ground cover, which is why i bought this tool. Last year, I kept it outside for months in direct sunlight and didn't take care of it, so the cord rotted and frayed. Remembering it was guaranteed, I took it to a local hardware store who asked no questions and replaced it (the entire tool, not just the cord). It has served me well, so I now make sure to treat it well. I clean and oil it after each use because if i don't it tends to stick and and jam. It's not the sturdiest, but it isn't a bad tool, and the manufacturer's guarantee is solid.
Screw strips out with normal use. September 17, 2003 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The metal strips out that a screw that holds the balde turns into. The blade and tool can then not be used and the tool becomes useless. This occured with below normal home use.
Cuts tree limbs great ....but.. October 16, 2001 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I thought about purchasing this item through ... but found it for less than the ... price listed at the time of this review. None the less, this product does a pretty good job at cutting and extending to lengths that reach most of the limbs of a reasonably sized tree found in yards of most residences. There were two things that stood out as far as dealing with this item. The minor of these is that the saw blade that is attached to the working end of this pole seems a bit too flexible. Would have been nice if it was made of sturdier metal. It was good however once you get a start in the cutting of the tree limb! Nice and sharp! The second, more troublesome aspect, was that the screw-down, that keeps the pole from extending (more than your desired length) would sometimes allow the pole to slip through during the cutting of a limb. Hopefully, with use, this will eventually no longer occur. Other than that, the foam grip area on the lower portion of the pole makes for a really great grip when in use. And as far as the pruning blade goes; it was very easy to trim small branches! While purchasing this item I saw others that had plastic/nylon parts. This one has metal (where the saw and prunining mechanism are attached). Overall, I would say this is a good product to take care of most of your tree branch cutting needs.
