Miracle-Gro 8 in. Bypass Pruning Shears – 1/2 in. Cutting Capacity, Carbon Steel Blade

It's exactly what I was looking for. I perfer the scissors handle over the spring style. The blades are very sharp. They cut the stems of my fresh bouquet effortlessly.

Easy to use for personal landscaping projects around the home. Blades are sharp, making trimming a breeze. I'd forsure recommend these Miracle Grow trimmers to anyone who wants to beautify their home.

This pruning tool was exactly what I needed. They are sharp and make short order of clipping through thick weeds and small branches. Their relatively small size lets you get into small/tight spaces and cut away. A quality, must-have garden tool at a great price. Highly recommend.

These flower shears are great as long as the flower stalk isn't too thick. They are sharp %26 work very well!

The clippers were exactly advertised as the picture. Blades were sharp. Cutting shrubs was a breeze. Would recommend highly.

These work great. I cannot seem to coordinate with an electric trimmer so this is the next best answer !

The pros - Easy to use, works great, cuts sharp, metal part seems sturdy. Good price. The con - PLASTIC lock system. Don't have much faith that this will last, and, of course, nothing is made like it used to be. But it wasn't very expensive, easy to use, cuts great. Just don't like the plastic part.

Overall, it works great, Sharp and sturdy metal. What I don't like or have much faith in is the plastic locking part. Price was reasonable, so I'll live with it. Nothing is made like it used to be. Cheaper because it has plastic.

A piece of junk. If I hadn't thrown the packaging away I would 've returned this. It did not work correctly from the first time I tried to use it. It seized up and the blades hit each other. This was from cutting some wispy grass around a plant. When I got them unbent the thing still would not work correctly. A waste of money and I guess this can now go in the trash.

The locking mechanism keeps engaging while trying to get some work done. Frustrating to say the least.
