After checking out b+q verve brand, homebase, and screwfix, this one came well ahead on review alone

Very impressed, no twist action to extend the pruner, a sturdy two action catch, pull up lever, then press open button, push down lever to lock.
Blade make short work of some sycamore pruning and very decent length when fully extended.
Added saw is a bonus and very sharp too. Highly reccomended for only £24.99!
