User Reviews about Corona Clipper 21-inch Bypass Lopper with StrataShear Blade Cuts Up To 1 1 2-inch AL 8120

Just bought these bypass loppers after extensive research. This particular line, the Stratashear, came highly recommended as professional quality, value added loppers. The Stratashear technology as noted in the product advertisement allegedly reduces friction and improves cutting efficiency. The blade opens wide, capable of cutting material between 1-1.5" in diameter depending on whom you read. The blade is resharpenable and its wide mouth lends itself to this task. The handles are aluminum, elliptically shaped for additional high strength. The handles are covered with a hard rubber material. The loppers include two very effective heavy duty bumpers on the upper end enclosed in their own forged-in bumper cups for shock absorption. The product comes with a Lifetime Limited Warranty. It is very attractive with red handles and a very efficient-looking forged head. Advertised as being Made in the USA, I was surprised to find a small sticker inside the attached booklet from Corona that said Made in Mexico! They cost $39 and included FREE shipping (Amazon)...not a bad deal. Nonetheless, I am returning them. I discovered that the lenght-21"- is too short for me (I am 5'11") and the hard rubber covers on the handles are too hard with little or no give. They also feel funny-shaped. Having said that, these are the BEST loppers that I've ever used. I am now reordering a set of Corona Stratashear 26.5 loppers from Amazon.
