Gelindo Pruning Shears


Rating: 5/5

Review:
Very good pruning shears



Gelindo kindly sent me a pair of these pruning shears/secateurs without charge for review and I think they are very good.  The shears are plainly very well made: they are solid and robust and should last for years – and they have a lifetime guarantee.  I have some other Gelindo products which are all of very high quality and I have confidence in what they make.

In use, they are excellent.  Do read the instructions first!  I know you wouldn't expect to have to do that with pruning shears, but these have a clever ratchet mechanism which cuts thick branches by stages, making it much easier and you just need to know what to expect.  (The instructions are clear and in excellent English, by the way.)  They are a pleasure to use – comfortable, sharp and extremely easy to handle.  The claims are true – they really do cut quite thick branches pretty easily, and as ordinary secateurs they make very short work of trimming small stuff.

There's not a massive amount more to say about pruning shears.  In short, these are very good quality and excellent in use.  I can recommend them very warmly.
