DEWALT Dewalt 20V MAX Cordless Pruner (DCPR320D1)

Works well, well worth it. These were something I had thought of as a toy or luxury item. While I do have a large backyard, and it's more or less 'natural' and it's overgrown with everything from small oaks and torny vines.These cut anything I would normally use hand shears for (they say 1 1/2" but I'll say 1"). The speed they cut at is fine, and they are easy to use. The end result is very little effort so you get a lot done quickly. The batteries last all day or at least 90% of the day, with a lot of use. I haven't used any other brand so I can't compare them to cheaper models. I decided to go with the Dewalt thinking the brand name would insure quality. The tool is designed with a guard of sorts that provides some protection for your working hand. It also features a safety system to prevent accidental cutting, it's easy to get used to (have to flip a small flap downward and depress a saftey trigger, after that you can press the actual trigger. It sounds harder than it is, the system cannot be defeated with duct tape or similar methods, I think it's a fair idea as I guarantee the tool could harvest a finger quickly.The tool is not cheap. However it's possible to buy a second one as a tool only (no battery or charger) and I had already purchased 2 extra batteries (also not cheap). After waiting for my wife to get done so I could use it and vice-versa it was only $100 for tool 2. Don't regret it.What could be improved? I haven't found a way to carry the tool hanging from may belt, no hook or even hole placed there for a lanyard. I have to assume safety was the overriding concern (back to the part of harvesting a finger or whatever was unfortunately there in the event of accidentally pressing the trigger. I am looking into using a holster designed for a battery drill or carpenters pouch.So far this is a purchase I'm happy with.

This pruner is a great item. It cuts very well and is easy to use. It will cut just about anything that fits between the jaws. Both my wife and I find it very useful.

I am amazed at how easy this tool makes trimming suckers and branches. It allows you to get into tight spaces that you could never manage with a conventional trimmer. It’s a lot stronger than you might think, and it could take a finger off if you got careless. The battery life is good, and the trimmer is durable. I only wish Dewalt had supplied it with a carrying case as they used to do with other tools. Amazon has an after market case that I bought that works well. If you’re getting up there in years, this trimmer makes life a lot easier if you have a large property with a lot of trimming to do.

Finally a great cutting tool even this grandma can use. Been clipping down small scrub trees all over the property borders. Chopping up annoying climbing vines is a snap. Easy to hold and power chomp is awesome. Quick recharge. Battery life is very good too..outlasts my work session. Love it.

Typical DeWalt quality construction with fantastic power and battery life .

Works very well. Sharp blades and lots of power. Got this for my 91 year old mother who struggles in the garden trimming rose bushes. She loves it!

The name Dewalt says it all for the quality and performance of these pruners. Love the ease of use and the strength they have to deal with larger limbs/branches. Battery life is great, lasting very long allowing a lot of pruning before needing to change.

From an old guy with some arthritis my hands, these are a hand saver. As powerful as they are, they could be dangerous if not used safely. The trigger lockout that rests at a 90 degree to the grip can be hard to activate. They’ll go through A 3/4 inch branch pretty easily, we bought a set this spring and have used quite a bit and purchased this one for my brothers Christmas gift. Good buy!
