This pruner is rather small, lightweight, easy to handle and has a handle with a length suitable for low branches. I struggled at first to start up because it stopped immediately. Eventually I greased the chain and reviewed the assembly. It works perfectly and since I use it to cut the trees. The rechargeable battery is convenient and makes silent (Therefore, we must be careful!). This pruner is suitable for small branches, hedges ... A larger model gasoline seems more suitable for the branches of a rather large diameter because it is quite small.
