SKGPOLE 26FT Reach Pole Saw, Telescoping Tree Trimmer with 5-20FT Extension Pole, Sharp Steel Blade and Scissors, Fruit Picker, Extendable Long Handle Tree Pruner for Yard Garden Trees Palms Shrubs

I had several uses for this when I bought it--and it exceeded my expectations. 1. Large sweet gum tree overhanging deck--I started cutting, expecting about a 5-minute time--and in about 2 minutes, a rather large branch fell on me, almost knocking me over! No harm done, but a good reminder that this is a VERY sharp blade--similar to a drywall jabber but sharper. Depending on what you are cutting, it could go a lot faster than expected--watch for falling branches! (sweet gum is a fairly soft wood) 2. Large silver maple--very tall and top branches definitely need a pro arborist. But there were some mid-level branches (2-3 inch diameter) that should have been reachable that were brushing on the top of a potting shed--literally impossible to get to with a ladder. This did the trick. Again, this seem to cut through silver maple fairly quickly. 3. Ash: again, awkward position and impossible to get a ladder close to lower branches. This worked but I guess that ash is harder--it took about 10 mins. to get through a 2-3 inch diameter branch. 4. Apple: worked great--but as noted in other reviews, this tool works best on slightly hardened wood--not on slender green ones. I just positioned farther up the branch. 5. Old fir tree: again, top levels absolutely need a pro arborist, but there was a midlevel very old, very dead branch overhanging neighbor's yard--very hard to get to safely on ladder. This did work but took about 10 minutes or more--again, hard deadwood. All in all, in about 2 hours I had a large pile of branches/limbs that will take 3-4 weeks to recycle through the weekly yard debris pickup--and happy to do it as doing this work myself saved hundreds of dollars! I mention all of the details to show that I really do think this is a very useful and versatile tool. Also: the tool does extend to a VERY long length--much more than I needed. But I could see what some others have pointed out that it could be a bit wobbly at full length. Also, I found the tabs that controlled extension very quick and easy to use as I moved from one tree to the next; the foam grips are secure and high quality. Will this blade dull eventually? Don't know. As far as I'm concerned, this tool paid for itself the first day.

I purchased this 26ft pole after getting a similar pole from Vevor on amazon of which the 2 bottom pole sections would not extend, despite wd spray and all other kind of efforts, and comparing it with a prior 12 ft SKGPOLE I'd gotten in 2024 which all its sections effortlessly opened. So based on that it motivated me to try out their 26ft pole saw as I need reliable and easy extentable pole for all that length to trim a tall fruit tree. I was not disappointed when it arrived, finding all of the pole's sections effortlessly extending smooth as butter, letting me have all of the promised high reach. While I did like the saw better on the Vevor model that has a hook at its end handy for pulling down branches almost sawed that will give at a tug, I prefer reliability and the sturdiness of this SKGPOLE saw which actually has a more secure way to attach in that it literally does screw onto the end of the pole as well as gets a firm bolt to hold it in place, where the Vevor saw did not actually screw on but sits on the pole's end, only held by the single bolt. So everyway around I find this to be quality and able to do the job it promises in its reach capacity, light enough for me a senior woman to make use of.

I'm surprised how well this saw works. Seems well made for the price. I wish the blade was a little thicker but it works fine if you don't force it. It's all already paid for itself and I'm getting some good exercise.

Love this product. Finally able to cut hard to reach branches. But raise from the base as it gets heavy when fully extended.

I recently purchased this tree pole saw, and I couldn’t be happier with its performance! This tool is a game-changer for anyone tackling tree maintenance. The lightweight design makes it easy to maneuver, even when fully extended, allowing me to reach high branches without straining. The sharp, durable blade cuts through thick branches like butter, making quick work of pruning tasks. I also love the telescoping pole—it’s sturdy, adjusts smoothly, and locks securely for safe operation. The ergonomic grip adds comfort during extended use, and the balance is spot-on, reducing fatigue. It’s efficient, reliable, and has made my yard look pristine with minimal effort. Highly recommend this pole saw to anyone looking to simplify their tree-trimming chores!

This is a great tool. I've already taken down two limbs, so it's more than paid for itself. My advice is when extending it start from your end. I was able to get the job done without extending the narrowest tube closest to the blade. When extended there is some flex. Try to avoid adding much pressure to the blade. The teeth are sharp and will do the job without adding much pressure. With proper care this is a quality tool that I expect to use a few times a year for years to come.

Great pole for reaching high branches. Easy to use. The only issue I’ve had is when fully extended, it is not very steady. I still highly recommend it.

This is very sturdy and nice. It’s longer than our previous one. It’s sturdier also.
