This is a fantastic lopper, especially for the money and if you deal with hardwood frequently. The additional leverage from the bypass makes dealing with Oak and Maple branches each. It does mean you have to open the handles quite wide if you're dealing with a larger branch but the trade-off of increased power for cutting is worth it, if you've got the space. If you regularly are in tight areas trimming, this may not be the right tool. Lightweight, yet feels strong and capable of handling everything I can try cutting.The blades cut easy and with regular sharpening, have continued to do so after 3 years of regular use. I haven't had to replace the blades yet, as the minimal rolling on the edge was easily corrected with a file.Very happy with this purchase. We've got a Fiskars lopper as well and it tends to just stay hanging on the wall while this one is grabbed.

Very sharp and operates smoothly. However, given the curve of the blade, the handles have to open uncomfortably wide to accommodate the smallest of branches.

Built like a tank and cuts through branches that I probably shouldn't even try. Very good product.

They are super easy to use. I was able to cut through 1 inch wide green branches by only pressing with 2 fingers.

Super sharp cutting action. Have cut saplings well over an inch in diameter. Highly recommended.

Bought the lopper in June used less than 3 times the blade cracked in half. The exclude the blade in the warranty. Cost of the blade is $4.00 less than the cost of the entire Corone Lopper. Buy a Fiskar.

Good idea, but not practical. The compound action is a good idea, but you need to move the handles out to almost 180 deg. to get full jaw opening. Not really practical when pruning in tight spaces.

I purchase based reading reviews and was not disappointed the least. A well made quality lopper for a great price. I tackled an overgrown hedge row and was thoroughly pleased with the performance...the about leverage obtained and sharpness of the cutting blades. I dinged the blades up a little due to an old farm fence intertwined with the hedge, but was able to comfortably sharpened back to near new condition. I would have given 5 stars, but have found it impossible to order a replacement set of blades under the catalog number AL 4110...even on the Corona website for replacement parts. Although I am sure that a call to customer service will resolve the issue, I feel like the replacement set of blades should be referenced to the catalog number of the loppers.

Pros:- 2" Capacity- Light Weight- Reasonable Cost- Compound Cutter, Less Effort- Easily SharpenedCons:- Compound Cutter, More Distance to Open- No Rubber StopI bought this lopper exclusively for trail maintenance a few times per year. That maintenance consists of 90% willows with the balance conifer limbs and Potentilla. Willows grow as a multi-stem cone from knee high to over head high and quickly obscure a trail if not pruned back periodically. The goal is to cut the willow within 6" of the root. To do that a long reach is needed and the compound mechanism reduces the force required.The AL 4110 is the least expensive of the ~40 lopper models that Corona makes. However it is not cheaply made, just design compromises to reduce cost. All the steel parts: cutter, hook, link bar were heavy gauge steel stampings with nice tight joints.I used this lopper for 8-hours over two days cutting 1000's of willows from 1/8" up to 1-1/2" Dia. If I could get the cutter/hook around the willow stem, then the cutting effort required was always trivial. By comparison, I have an old single pivot lopper, cutting the largest stems required every ounce of strength I had.If a cut wasn't clean, a small uncut ribbon, then sharpening was required. I sharpened the cutter perhaps a half-dozen times in the two days using one of these , fast and easy. The same compound mechanism that makes cutting so easy puts a lot of stress on the cutting edge, causing the edge to dull.Even though the AL 4110 lacks a rubber stop, I never felt a jarring close. Perhaps because willows cut so easily or it is just inherent in the compound mechanism?I considered one of the highly rated Fiskars PowerGear loppers, but if you watch their video, they need to be opened 180°, that's best suited for waist high cutting. For willows, the best cutting position is sitting on the dry ground. For that position, the 90-120° opening of the AL 4110 is a better fit, see attached photos.1 Year Update:I've now trimmed over 10,000 willow and spruce branches, no I didn't count. Occasionally, the tool will bind from grit getting between the cutter and hook. Disassembly (4 identical 1/2" nuts) and simple cleaning and works like new. After all that use, held it to a bright light, no gap between the cutter and hook.Was on a backpack into a NM wilderness, met a USFS trail crew with a 5-foot long 2-man handsaw, they had this same lopper as part of their kit.The combination of light weight, long reach and powerful cutting action makes this lopper an ideal trail trimmer.
