Give Your Hands a Rest with Trimcraft9 Garden Scissors

If you’re like me, when you do a lot of pruning in your outdoor or indoor garden, your hands get sore. Or even worse, you develop a blister. So, when I had the opportunity to try out an automatic trimmer, I welcomed the chance to give my hands a rest. The Trimcraft9 Precision Automatic Trimmer allows for effortless pruning. You simply position the blade and let the trimmer do the work.

The TrimCraft9 was designed for cannabis trimming, but it applies to just about any plant with soft stems up to 1/4 inch in diameter. The trimmers will cut through light plant matter, paper and cloth. So, this isn’t something you would be using on plants with larger, hard stems. But if you have a lot of pruning to do with plants that fit the criteria, it can save you wear and tear on your hands. The trimmer is lightweight, weighing just 9.5 ounces, and the motor is very quiet.

The Trimcraft9 system is not battery operated, but instead needs to be plugged into an electrical outlet. The 12-volt power cord is long enough to let you get around (10 feet), but not so long that you run the risk of tripping on it. Of course, this may create logistical challenges outdoors, as you need a nearby power source. The system also works well for pruning houseplants indoors.

There are two adjustable blade angles—one wide and the other more closed for precision cutting. An Interchangeable Blade System allows for easy blade replacement to achieve various cutting styles. You can also hit the handle for just one cut or keep pressure on the handle and the trimmers will keep cutting.

Of course, the blades are very sharp, so it’s best to stay alert and wear safety goggles or glasses and gloves when working with the trimmers. To illuminate your work, there is also an LED work light. You simply press a button.

The stainless-steel blades feature a food-safe coating which makes them easy to clean and durable. To clean the blades, soak them in isopropyl alcohol and then use a soft cloth to wipe them clean of residue.
