I bought one of those dumb ass loppers at Costco and it broke.

Doesn't surprise me at all. Costco, Home Depot and Lowes all sell junk
that breaks down. Need a good lopper? Try some of the more expensive

such as a Felco. Handiest lopper I ever bought was from Brookstone. It
had a tungsten carbide tipped blade and ratchet action. Too bad the
spring broke. This could easily handle 2" thick hardwood branches.
