I've been using the Alligator Lopper for YEARS. I've never owned a chain saw, and for almost any job I've needed to do around the house, this Lopper does the job exceptionally well. It will comfortably saw through limbs as thick as 6" or maybe more very quickly and effortlessly. It isn't loud like a chain saw and has good longevity. If you only occasionally need to cut medium sized limbs, this is your tool! It can be a bit heavy after while, but then this is to be expected with the power it has, and it's no heavier than a chain saw. It even has a safety switch in one of the handles in case you lose your grip, and the cutters will stop moving instantly. I like the fact that it's electric since it can sit in my shed for years unused without worrying about gas thickening and oil decomposing. Love this tool!

This might be the safest and most versatile saw that I have ever owned. The dual triggers and blade guards make this super safe to use. Highly recommend!

This tool is perfect, PERFECT, for the job it's designed to do. I had a yard full of tree branches after a storm, and it ripped through them in an hour. I wish I had bought it years ago. I have no need for cordless, which would add 50% to the price, and would burden me with yet another proprietary battery and charger. [begin rant] Tool batteries are unreliable, short-lived, brand-exclusive, non-recyclable, and ridiculously expensive to replace -- I hate 'em, and I don't want any more of the stupid things [end rant]. The lopper works just fine on a 100' 16 gauge cord, which is the recommended weight.The safety features on this tool allow me to use it with confidence. Both sides of the bite radius are covered, and you have to press both triggers to make it run. Read and follow every word of the manual, and you'll be fine. Don't even think about using it without wrap-around eye protection.Tip: buy the smallest bottle of chain oil you can find -- I saw an eight ounce bottle, but made the mistake of buying a quart. The little oil reservoir on the saw holds maybe eight drops, and the manual says that that's good for about ten minutes of cutting. I cut all those branches, and cleared a couple dead shrubs, and a 4" stump, and there was still a little oil in the reservoir. It'll take me a long time just to empty the squirt bottle that came with the tool.Missing feature: a simple storage bag. The lopper is large and awkward, and unless you have a long shelf for it, you'll need to keep it in the box. I'll buy a bag separately, when the box wears out.IMPORTANT: Black & Decker has a well-earned reputation for making cheap and shoddy power tools that crap out after a couple seasons. I would have preferred a better brand, but no one else makes a comparable tool. Only time and use will tell if this tool matches B & D's reputation, but brand new out of the box, it's excellent.

These work great and seem to be built pretty well...and safe.The only thing I hate is having to drag a cord around. BUT this is not a fault of the product...I knew it was electric when I bought it. Cordless just would have been better for my application.But I DO recommend this if you don't mind using a cord.

This device operates with a pair of jaws and inside the jaws Is the chainsaw.I am cutting cutting a lot of brush and straw and small trees.This is an extremely safe product. Just open the jaws, place them around up to a 7 inch log or branch. And proceed to close them like scissors. And the chainsaw operates.Just fantastic.... You can easily take off the branches off. The tree and cut branches up into pieces. I would give this a ten out of ten highly highly highly recommended.

This tool is heavy, arms get a little tired after a while. It will cut through a branch 2 inches in diameter in under 5 seconds. So far it appears to be a very useful tool, I have not had it long enough to comment on it's longevity.

Our long Cotoneaster hedge was up to 7 feet high, and presented more than 100 irregular vertical hardwood branches up to 1 inch thick. Two 20-minute sessions neatly solved the problem. The ‘gator also cuts up fallen or trimmed branches for brown-bagging or chipping. The chain oiler works properly and it's easy to use. Four paws up!

I needed a safe way to small trees and brush at my country property. My husband is a danger to himself with anything like a real chainsaw, so I bought the Alligator for myself (55 year-old woman who has never used a full-sized chainsaw before but is thoroughly motivated!). Perfect choice! Light enough to cut tall limbs, safe enough that I wasnt worried about cutting myself. Yard work = fun!

Bought to see if they would be useful for the small brush and limbs around the yard. Pleasantly surprised at the ease of use. Very easy to use and the guard is a nice safety feature. Chain came off a couple of times due to user error. You need to be sure to keep it on the same angle and not try and twist the saw during use. Be sure to oil it as directed for care and maintenance. Our friends love it and want one for themselves. No need to pull the big saw out for smaller limbs.
