these are great for the price, but we hate that you have to cut them to get them out. Very inconvenient if you are out and about and have no scissors with you!

I understand the need to make these batteries secure from children, but the level in which it takes to cut them out of their packaging is almost impossible.

Need a scissors to get a battery out of the package, very inconvenient when you are out and need to bring a scissors along to change your hearing batteries. Will not buy them again

The batteries are good quality however getting them out of the packaging is not easy. You need a sharp pair of scissors and therefore they are not very useful when you’re out and about unless you carry a sharp pair of scissors with you everywhere.

Horrible design! A person with arthritis would not be able to open the package. You need to use scissors to get the package open.

Let me start by saying that I've never left a bad review for anything. But...These batteries work fine but they are almost impossible to get out of the packaging. You literally have to cut through the plastic between each battery to get them out, and the plastic is thick. Very hard to cut without the tiny batteries flying everywhere. I hope they return to the pop out packaging they used to have.

Terrible packaging. Good batteries, IF you can get the package open with super sharp scissors. Most people who use these batteries are older/elderly and do not have small children around. What's the sense in childproofing them! Will never buy them again!

Terrible packaging! Most seniors use these and with arthritis, have to have others cut the holder to get a battery out of the package. Sam’s didn’t take seniors into consideration when these were designed.

It's not just impossible to open but incredibly dangerous. Prepare to spend 10 minutes opening each package with very sharp scissors. Read the rest of the reviews. It's so bad they've disabled photo uploads for this terrible product.

These are the worst batteries to open. You need heavy duty scissors to open the package. I will not be buying these again eventhough the price is better than most..
