How do I choose a lopper?
When looking at the “power†of loppers (cutting capacity), consider how heavy the loppers are relative to the power and weigh that against your strength and fitness. In many cases, it's better to buy a lighter pair of loppers with a smaller cutting capacity and then use a pruning saw to cut thicker branches.
What is the difference between pruners and loppers?
Pruners are one-handed tools used for smaller branches and stems around half an inch or less in width. Loppers are two-handed tools that are used for medium-size branches and stems that are too big for hand pruners but are thinner than 1 to 1.5 inches. (For larger branches/stems use a pruning saw.)
What are ratchet loppers?
These loppers require less force to use because the ratchet mechanism allows you to cut gradually through the branch or stem. Each time you close the handles the mechanism clicks and holds the blades in place so you make gradual progress rather than having to cut in one go.
