Amazon.com Product Description
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.

 Great product but the shipping packing is terrible! August 26, 2008
This pole pruner performs very well, the ability to rotate the head (easily cutting branches at different angles) was one of the main reasons for the purchase. The second reason was the simple/clever design on the cutting and handling (no additional rope to pull/to mess with) I wouldn't like to push it's cutting ability more than 1 1/4" inches, so I would definitely recommend people not to push it above/or at 1 1/4" inches. I haven't had the chance to use the saw head/blade setup. I was pleasantly surprised how light it is; this will reduce the hand/neck ache that can go along with trimming trees
I noticed that some reviewers mentioned that the packaging was poor (it still is - as of August 2008), this is an understatement; I was lucky that the pruner wasn't damaged during shipment. It was `packed' if that is was they call it; wrapped would be a better description, wrapped in a single sheet of thin cardboard. This type of item needs to be shipped in a cylinder/tube box or at least a box that will support/cover the whole item. The packaging that was used wouldn't protect the pruner from anything other that dust! It is amazing that the item wasn't bend/twisted/dented etc. Now saying all of that, if it gets to you without being damaged you will enjoy using this pruner, hence the 5 stars
 Fiskars Telescoping Pruning Stik #9240 August 8, 2008
excellent product, already done with winterizing trimming around the house, when I first pulled the cutting bowel and branch fell down, my wife instantly said " magic", that's how I felt, too. But then moving on to larger branch and switching to cutting saw and that's when problems occured, first the wing nut which were used to tighten and positioned the saw were being knocked off by the tree because of the push and pull motion; which un-screw the wing nut, went down and look for it, after finding it and tightening it up super tight, back to work and the extension poll fell out also caused by the push and pull motion, pick it up, slided it back in, tightening it up and figured out how the rope and jaw reacts to each other and did some adjustments, and it works fine ever since, I'd give it a 5 star if not because it took me 30 minutes to find things and fixed and adjusted it the first time I've used it, other than that, it's a great helper to make things possible.
A real time saver July 21, 2008
This is the best pruning device I have ever owned. The 12 foot reach is great and the piviting cutter makes it easy to handle high branches. With a 12 month growing season here in central Florida a tool like this is an absolute necessity
Fiskars telescoping pruner July 6, 2008
This is clearly the best telescoping pruner that I have ever used. It is sharp, cuts easily through 1.5 inch branches, and lets me get to places that I thought were unreachable. It also comes with a curved saw blade that is simple to attach and detach. Kudos to Fiskars for an outstanding product.
Exceeded my expectations July 4, 2008
My Fiskars telescopic pruner is easy to use and paid for itself the first day I used it! By being able to quickly prune off the seed pods of my parasol trees I won't spend a lot of time next year pulling unwanted seedlings. But it was the saw attachment which amazed me. It is incredibly sharp! I'm sort of afraid of it (ha). I was able to saw through three-inch live oak limbs with true ease. I couldn't believe how quickly it made short work of that incredibly tough wood. It would have cost me a couple hundred dollars to pay someone else to do these jobs for me.
