Met my low expectations, but already starting to wear down
I needed new nail clippers as my other clippers is very clumsy.  I came across these relatively inexpensive nail clippers and decided to give them a shot.  Here are some thoughts:<br /><br />• Look/Feel: I like the fact that these come as a pair, with a larger pair for toenails and a smaller pair for fingernails.  They feel normal, but one thing that I would have preferred was a nail file on the back side of each clipper.<br /><br />• Effectiveness: Given how inexpensive these are, I wasn’t expecting all that much.  That being said, I did feel like I had to press down harder to clip the nails (and it’s not as if I have nails that are thicker than normal).  The biggest issue, however, is that the clippers are already beginning to show some wear after just one use.  This is particularly evident on the smaller pair, where one edge of the cutter is showing noticeable indentations.  I think it’ll be only a matter of time before these clippers become dull.<br /><br />• Case: One positive that I’d note is that the clippers come in a very nice case.  This makes it easier to keep the nail clippers together and conveniently tucked away in the drawer.<br /><br />In summary, this was a fair purchase of something that I had very low expectations on.  The clippers worked fine, but the noticeable fraying of the edges confirms my initial thoughts that this will probably not last that long.  If you need a backup pair or are in a pinch then go for it, but otherwise I’d get something that is a bit higher quality.
