These electric shears have unbelievable accuracy when cutting. The ergonomic shape and secure grip make quick work of any cutting job, no matter how small the space or difficult the material. The lack of a chord frees me to walk about freely, and the low weight means I can wear them for long periods of time without discomfort. The WORX ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors stand out due to its portability and user-friendliness. These shears have become an indispensable tool for me, and I have no hesitation in giving them a perfect score of five stars. I was immediately impressed by the electric scissors' ease of use, accuracy of cuts, and effectiveness. If you're a do-it-yourself fanatic, you need the WORX WX082L 4V ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors.

For cutting boxes to fit in the recycle bin while being alone in the garage away from kids, this will do. If you plan to use this to make intricate cuts you may want to look for something else. Thicker boxes, like the fruit ones, take a little more time but the amazon boxes are like butter. I'm not the type to charge anything before first use. Immediately after receiving the package, I ripped it open and started cutting boxes. Here we are months later and without a single empty box blocking my front door. As I stood there watching this lady half my size cut through these boxes like my kids playing Fruit Ninja, I knew I had to have it. Clearly my family is not the only one who inadvertently barricades the front door with empty boxes. I'm a man, I don't need any fancy tools to do this until one breakthrough moment at my sister-in-laws. I was one of those guys who gets on his hands and knees with a box cutter, every other week, to chop down the mountain of empty cardboard boxes that block my front door. **However, I do wish the safety switch/trigger was on the top side, rather than the bottom side, easier for your thumb to reach, otherwise you have to use your other hand to trigger the safety switch, which is no big deal, but I would normally use the other hand to hold the wrapper, maybe I’ll try it without holding the wrapper, I’ll see if it would still cut smoothly, just used to doing it the old way with scissors! 😊 Must have in every household! 🥰 Love This Electric Cutter. the thin wrappers from DollarTree (which btw, I love their wrappers), I would usually buy the quality wrappers from Joann’s bcuz they cut nicely with scissors, but I hate to $pend on wrappers that would be torn/thrown away, waste of my money, 😝 so going back to the product 😊 this cuts through thin wrapping paper so smoothly, made my wrapping so much easier. It can be so frustrating cutting wrapping paper, esp. he’s never wrapped gifts/presents since I’ve know him, so he has no idea what I go through, he’s a gift bag type. My husband will say “why the beep did I(me)buy this” 😂 well. That problem may go away as I get more used to it. The other problem is that the blade guard sometimes catches the material and stops the cutter. Might bother me if I need to order a blade or something, but. Fortunately, usage was obvious, so I didn't need to read. I've reached the bifocal age but even with glasses, the instructions are hard to read.

One is the size of the font on the instructions. There are only two SLIGHT problems that I've noticed and neither of them is serious. Not anymore! This thing cuts through relatively thick cardboard like butter. Thicker cardboard will succumb to a utility knife but it's a pain in the a** and I always worry about slipping and cutting the hand that's holding the cardboard. Thin cardboard can be hand torn, but paper cuts are a risk. It got so bad that I'd put off cutting it up until it became unsightly. Since deciding YEARS ago to be a recycler, I have struggled with cardboard. This is a 'fresh out of the box' review so my opinion MIGHT change with time, but.
