Not bad but.....
I've had one of these for over a year and used it a lot. On the plus its very good for pruning the tops of small trees that are normally beyond reach. On the less positive side it will not handle thin branches so well and works best on thicker ones of one inch and above. If used on the thin stuff it just gets clogged up although its easy to clear. The battery doesn't last very long as the power consumption is very high in order to get the power in the saw. Once the power starts to fade the saw just starts to clog up and stop under pressure. Two batteries would be ideal, which I have. These are very simple to change over. The chain saw can loosen up a bit after a few uses so be sure to chech the tension which is easy, but remember to reassemble the saw blade the right way round.

Black and Decker Pole Pruner
The Pole Pruner worked very well on small diameter, high branches with none of the movement that a conventional pruning saw would. The battery lasted well during the morning but took too long to charge to be used again in the afternoon. It could really do with a second battery. If the pole extensions were designed differently then it could be used as a short hand held pruner also. As this item worked as advertised I would certainly recommend it to my friends.
