Bond 5945 Ultimate Pruning 3 Piece Combo Set With Lopper, Hedge Shears And Pruner
As you can tell by the price, these are cheaply made.
The first day of use the loppers handle broke because the handles are thin walled. There is a reason that this set costs so much less than the others.
If you are okay with a set of loppers that can only cut through 1/4 inch branches, and you are okay with likely needing to replace them within a year then this set will work for you.
I haven’t had any problems with the shears after a full day of use, but I learned my lesson with the loppers and I haven’t tried to cut anything big.
I have only used the pruner twice and have had no problem with them.
These are definitely not a set for heavy or extended use, but they are great, for the price, if you have a few small bushes that need a little trim.
I received this set a few weeks ago and have used all the pieces. It’s a great set for the price and exactly what I was looking for. The grips are comfortable and the blades are sharp and easy to use.
Seemed sharp enough, but the handle broke on the lopper within the first few uses. I guess you get what you pay for. The handle is paper thin tubing, attached to a plastic receiver that is pressed onto the steel cutting portion. The plastic broke and the tubing split. Not sure these are warrantied in any way, but I’ll probably try to adapt some wood handles to these loppers. If you hope to use these more than 3 times, I’d suggest looking for something with wooden handles.
