  I buy cheap yellow loppers at about £96 for box of 12 from LBS Horticulture. Treat them as disposable item, but get plenty of use out of them, and have no regrets when i ask too much of them and extending handles bend.

  We're big fans of Bacho stuff. Have their anvil and small nipper loppers.

  Ditto, cheap stuff generally doesnt last long and Felco are to expensive, so Bahco for me is a solid, great quality brand that are built to last. I have a pair of their ergonomic secateurs, now going into there third season, still solid and only requiring an occasional drop of oil and sharpen.

  Fiskars, £35, get about a year out of them, in my experience most loppers are crap and dont last long so i wouldnt spend any more than that on them.

  Orange handled Bahco's off Amazon. Several sizes. Best we've found :-)

  Good work horses, just like their long handled grass side shears.
