Very long loppers? Suggestions please.

I need to tidy up some branches that are too high to reach, my long handled loppers are not really long, I have seen peope using some really long ones, no idea where to begin as I will need to order online.

Please could anyone suggest some options as a ladder is not viable for me?

We got some telescopic loppers off Amazon - I can't find the exact ones I got but if you use that as a search term it will bring up loads

We have a Wolf pruning saw that is really excellent. The telescopic handle has other tools that can be fitted to it like loppers and a fruit picker. We have the ruit picker but haven't bothered with the loppers.

Look for the ones with the cuff that you slide down the pole to cut.

I've got them now. In the past I to pull a rope with a handle that hang vertically from the blade. Absolutely no good if you are cutting at an angle and your arm's too short to reach it😁

Money well spent though.

Thanks everyone.
I have seen gardeners using the ones with the rope, thought they might be good but not found any so far.
I will have a look at the suggestions.
