NEWS – These battery-powered shears popped up on my Facebook feed this morning and most of the time sponsored Facebook ads are usually for junk, but these pruners look like a dream tool for me. I’ve been imagining breezing through yard cleanup in minutes with these bad boys. They feature a trigger and a rechargeable battery that lasts 3-4 hours on a charge. On Amazon, they are almost $300 which is insane, but you can get one with the battery from mulchings.com for $149.98 which is still expensive, but might be worth it if you have a LOT of pruning to do..

I think you should order one, Julie, and test it out. Can’t wait for the review 🙂
Aaron, is that a challenge?
If that’s what it takes, then absolutely!
I was just on their page getting ready to order it when I realized that the $29.98 price is for the shears by themselves. If you want the shears AND the battery, the price goes to $149.98 🙁 Sorry, but at that price, I’m not willing to accept that challenge. I’m also going to go update the post to reflect my mistake.
I’ve contacted them to see if they would like to send me a sample to review. So keep your fingers crossed.
That’s like getting a Tesla S for $20,000 (batteries not included).
There is a typo somewhere, Amazon shows the battery as $29.99.
It is a scam site, I ordered two battery operated shears at a very low price and quickly discovered it was a scam, luckily I got refunded by paypal. oddly enough at a later date two pair of cheap hand operated shears arrived!!
would have been well miffed if I had not got a refund,
I order some too, it showed battery and shears and only received shear which I could of go at Walmart for 10.00☹️😡😡crappy deal and you are hard up to mis advertisements taking people’s money.
I purchased one through a Facebook advertisement. Thought it would have been good for my father who has Rheumatoid Arthritis… I never received the product. Their original email receipt led me to a tracker page which showed an error. I disputed the charge through PayPal. The owner, “New Boat” replied with a shipping tracker which showed no movement of over 15 days. Others have indicated the similar issues of not receiving the product, or receiving a much lesser valued product. I believe all of this stalling is an effort to get past the resolution window of your credit card company. I though you and your readers should know. I have also reported their Facebook page as a scam
I ordered in May and have not received.
I CAN’T STRESS THIS STRONGLY ENOUGH! DO NOT ORDER THESE! Hundreds of posters (including me were scammed). Order was never filled or, in my case, I was sent a crappy pair of $10.00 pruning shears that you operate by hand, like a pair of scissors. Not battery operated. When I complained to the company, they offered to refund $10 of my $40 and said I could keep the crappy shears…lol…Nice try! I and many others have reported them to Paypal.
