It does what it says. It is suitable for cutting small and larger branches. It doesn't require much force and has a good weight. It doesn't tire the hand.
It doesn't work for flowers and herbs.
I have had it for a little over a year and I have left it outside on the balcony and it hasn't had any issues.
I am very satisfied and now I will also get a gardena one for the flowers.
In general, I have been using products from this company for many years, since 2002, and I haven't had any problems.
