OK, I concede, the new packaging is terrible. Blame the government, as where i live it was mandated. That being said, I did a head to head comparison with batteries from another big box store where honestly, they're a bit cheaper at that store ($8.95). That being said, these batteries cost about 25% more than the other store (same amount), but to my surprise last about 75% longer. Also, remove the annoyance of changing more frequently and they really are a win! Cost vs Longevity, this is the winner!

The batteries are good but the 6 pack way is to hard to open.

I can't even rate the batteries since the packaging is adult proof. Returned the product back to the club and will be buying brand batteries elsewhere for twice the price. What good is a product if you can't get it out of the package?

I won't be buying again until they change the packaging. I had to sit down and use scissors to open them, and it was still a struggle to separate the rigid plastic. No one asked for this.

These might be ok, if you could get them out of the package. it crazy as a lot of seniors are the ones using harding aids...and you almost need a jackhammer to get the batteries out of the packaging. I will not buy these again.

This has horrible packaging. Impossible to open and you have to deal with it on each individual battery. Are you expected to carry around scissors with you everywhere you go? Along with bandaids!

Batteries are good but the packaging is so hard to open I'll probably change companies.

Impossible to get them out of the packaging!!!

Old people with arthritic hands find it impossible to deal with this product. If this is all you have to offer, I'll be shopping some where else.

Batteries are good quality but PACKAGE is horrible to cut open. The Redesign was bad decision for me as I will no longer purchase this item.
