Seems to work great especially on wrapping paper for Christmas gifts. Also works pretty well on cutting up carboard boxes. On some thicker cardboard boxes it worked but you had to go slower. All in all it saws using a knife to cut carboard boxes up for recycling.

I bought this tool to cut cardboard, plastic and thin plywood. I do centerpieces and pinatas. ZipSnip works nicely without the pain of putting pressure in your fingers like with normal two handle scissors. I cut round and straight with ease. The tool has a button that you need to press to cut, it gives more precision because I can control it better. I highly recommend it. I

They cut cardboard boxes and hard plastic protective covering just fine. I believe that I read that they will cut up to 1/4". If I read that correctly, that's not happening. I cut paper "stacks" to test these scissors. At 20 sheets I had to force the paper through the scissors to get it cut. The scissors are made well and have plenty of power, they just don't cut as well as expected. I find myself pushing cardboard and other garbage through the scissors as they won't cut some things by themselves.

I've only used it once since I received it, and that was on a rubber cat litter mat. I tried to use regular scissors, but those didn't even come close to cutting it. WOULDN'T cut it...at all!! So I tried these scissors, and it cut like it was jello! :) I bought these for the purpose of cutting some thick, hard plastic containers, so that will be the REAL test :) Can't wait to try it! But these are super easy to use, and handles very well. I'm glad they are self-sharpening, too! :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I saw this 4V ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors, I had to purchase it. My family is constanly received boxes in the mail from online mail order. I get so tired of trying to tear boxes for recycling. The day I received my 4V ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors, I started cutting my saved boxes and this tool made it so easy and time saving for me. Its lightweight and not bulky at all, not to mention how fast and easily it cuts boxes. I thank you worx tools for this tool and my arthritis in my hands thanks you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I now have two Zip Snips. I love this tool. It has been great for me to use,to cut up cardboard boxes. My basement was cluttered with boxes from other things that I had purchased, and it cut them up,like a hot knife through butter. I still have more work to do, but if I had used a regular box cutter, it would have taken me many hours more. Zip Snip saves time and is built to last. I'd recommend this tool to anyone who has arthritis in their hands. Great tool! Thanks Happy camper

I bought this for my wife actually as she likes to sew and make things. This goes through material with ease. We have only had this tool for a short time but it will be used on many things to come between my wife and I. Great cutting tool, makes cutting much easier and quicker.

I bought the electric scissors mainly because they advertised it will cut through carpets. The area to insert material is so thin I am very limited to what I can cut. It works great with paper and maybe very thin material but that is it. It would be so helpful if you could adjust the opening to make it wider. This way you would be able to cut cardboard, carpeting etc much easier.

Love this item. Find it very time saving and muscle saving. I have a question is it supposed t make a clic/clacking sound while the blade is rotating. I think the blade is hitting metal and not sure if that is supposed to work that way. It appears that the guide is bent in; should it be that way?
