Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
SKIL continues to expand its line of innovative lithium -on products with the launch of Isio, a two-in-one grass shear and shrub trimmer both garden aficionados and not-so-green thumbs can get behind. Because it is powered by SKIL's lithium-ion technology, the Isio charges three times faster and runs 33% longer than other cordless garden products on the market.
Innovative Features and Benefits
Isio's premium blades are made in Switzerland and are laser-cut, diamond-ground, and rust proof, making precise and effortless cuts easier than ever. The added ergonomic soft grip on the top and bottom of the handle make the Isio comfortable to use, and the compact design fits comfortably in your hand. Isio also has the benefit of two quick-change blades--one for trimming shrubs and small hedgers and one for grass sheering--making it ideal for shaping everything from professional-style topiaries to cutting picture perfect grass edgings.
 The Isio is perfect for shaping shrubs and small-leafed hedges. |

Works best for trimming shrubs that are not too dense or with really hard stems. Works best if you are able to hold the top of stems and cut below -- and it's easier for cleanup too. Lightweight and easy to handle. Not tiring. The cordless feature is great. Great box for storing. I had no problem with the battery charging as others have. The charge lasted long enough for me to do the trimming. I think it lives up to its description.

One of the best tools that we have added to our shed! This is used by my mother and myself, we both have small hands, we have no difficulty in operating the Isio; weight is comfortable and switching blades is easy.
Just love it! Need another one!!

I have only used the grass shear (not the shrub shear), which was the main reason I bought the product. Works beautifully, and the battery lasts a lot longer than I expected before it runs out of charge. So far, seems like a product that I can enthusiastically recommend -- at least so far as the grass shear is concerned. The only complaint I have is that the plastic blade guard (to protect against accidental injury when stored away) is flimsy and broke quickly; a minor quibble. Expensive, but worth the price.

So impressed by this little trimmer
I was skeptical about ordering this trimmer. How could it possibly replace my heavy-duty (heavy, being the key word here), corded hedge trimmer? Read more

High quality
If you want a high quality cordless grass shear this is the one! Compared to the more common models this is superior! Extremely light weight, is the first eye opener. Read more

Underpowered
The shear is so underpowered that it can't cut anything thicker than a mechanical pencil lead. It stalls and you have to turn it off and wiggle the branch out of the cutters. Read more
