Very sharp. If i didn't have arthritis in my hands, I could shred everything I have! Don't want to buy another shredder, so hopefully, with time, I can finish the important stuff. Worth buying, but keep away from children.

I tried using these scissors with one piece of paper as well as with a stack of 3-4 sheets and either way the paper just got stuck over and over and you couldn't make more than one cut part way through without un-jamming it. I ended up being so frustrated I just used regular scissors. These are definitely not a substitute for an electric shredder.

Las compré para cortar etiquetas de paquetes, pero cuando la etiqueta está pegada al plástico o está cubierta con cinta transparente la tijera no la puede cortar. Solo funcionan para papel.

Absolutely terrible they only cut very small amounts of paper at a time and need de-clogging every time you use them awful

Very disappointed in this product. Description states that it shreds credit card. When if fact it does not!!

They mostly work, they do sometimes get jammed, but that is to be expected. I keep my electric shredder downstairs, so so either I would have big piles to do, or I'd just toss sensitive documents. Now I keep these next to my recycling and shred as the mail comes in.

Excellent job on paper and credit cards. Takes up a small space. Chop cross ways or diagonal for complete destruction.

After replacing a electric paper shredder more then once (even with extended warranty) over the years,these days going paperless the cost of buying a electric paper shredders with or without an extended warranty is not wroth the cost. The very first paper shredder I got lasted for about 11 years due to it being made in Canada but these days they're made elsewhere. After I got a second paper shredder I did not get the "Extended warranty (Item was made in Hong Kong "Now part of China since '97") and that one lasted for less then a few years. I've gotten a couple more as the years past due to buying the extended warranty and was able to replace them with a new one. The pros and cons of buying that "Extended Warranty" is you get to replace the item and then drawback is you take any *replacement that mite be an "Refurbished" or a used store display with or without the "Extended three year plan" the local store sells you.* Most stores won't let you pick the new ideal replacement unless you're willing to pay out the balance of that new item along with taxes and a new coverage plan. So yeah not wanting to play their game these scissors will do the trick.The Pros:Like the headline says "No plug in needed!"No expensive extended warranty needed!Package say these have a ten year warranty replacement plan (So yeah this is a pro and con as people "Don't always" keep package/sales slip)The Cons:If you let paper that needs to be shredded pile up for a long time you'll be busy for a couple hours or longer as it depends how much has piled up over time. Tip:Cut right away when you no longer need that CC bill or any thing with your info such as your SIN,bank pin/number ,CC number!Takes time to shred paper so don't let papers pile up !Does not cut CD/DVD data disc!Does not cut credit cards very well! TIP: Use single scissors and a pair of Slip-joint pliers so you can grip the CC well you cut the card up.Sticky paper with sensitive info (Membership numbers,phone numbers etc,on cardboard/paper soak in water over night as the ink will wash away making it very hard to read your info! Better safe then sorry!
