Worx WX082L 4V ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors, fabric scissors, rotary cutter

If you're here, you probably buy a lot from Amazon. I got so tired of tearing down or trying to cut the boxes my orders came in ...then I found these. Problem solved. I have other heavy-duty shears and box cutters, but these electric scissors are the best for quickly cutting down boxes so they fit in the recycle bin. What I like: 1) they are reasonably heavy-duty and cut boxes quickly 2) they operate smoothly, with few stutters getting through cardboard 3) being electric, they are easy to use and prevent hand fatigue 3) I LOVE that they are cordless, making them 100x easier to use than a corded version 4) they recharge quickly with the included charger 5) they come with a pouch included, keeping the charger with the tool in one place so I don't have to constantly hunt for the charger 6) they can be used for a wide variety of cutting tasks 7) they come with two additional blades I have several other Worx tools and have been very satisfied with all of them. That gave me confidence that these would also be good quality. I generally dislike having tools that are useful for only one purpose, but I get enough boxes from Amazon that it would be worth it if I only used them for that. The bonus is, they are useful for many other activities. In summary, these scissors are good quality, powerful for a variety of tasks, and VERY easy to use. Definitely Five Stars and I highly recommend them.

DISLIKES: Recharge time, to recharge after a good usage of the tool requires 5 hours to a full charge before you can get working again, that is with the default adapter{charger) that comes with it, which is 6V 400mA. This also depends on the amperage of your charger, I have found chargers with a 2Amp up to 5Amp charge things faster, and can cut your recharge cycle down quite a bit, 2 Amp usually about 2-1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, a 5 Amp charger can reduce this down to anywhere from 30 minutes, to not usually more than 2 hours{if that} for a full recharge. I have numerous adapters with a wide variety of voltages and ratings, always USE a charger/adapter with the correct voltage, in this case 6V, but the amperage is what makes the difference in how fast it will recharge. LIKES: Rechargeable, cuts through many different materials smoothly and easily. Self Sharpening blade, so longer use of the cutting blade before having to possibly replace the circular blade. I wouldn't actually call this tool electric scissors, it's more like a sub-miniature hand-held circular saw. I purchased this tool initially for cutting out old carpeting from my home, it cuts through the carpet like a hot knife would cut through a stick of butter. Not only that, but I have also used this tool to cut down my Amazon Delivery boxes for easy removal, some boxes that may have a very thick form, it will cut them, but it's a little harder to get the tool through those, but most standard boxes, it makes short work of them, cutting them down to small square sections in less time than it does to break them down by hand and cut them down with a standard pair of scissor. My wife cut down a box of the same size using scissors, and I was using the tool, I had completed the complete cut-down of my box, same exact size as here, in less than 5 minutes, while she was still struggling to get her box cut down to size for the trash bag, her box was still over 70% intact, I cut down various size boxes, a total of 15 boxes from medium to very large, in the time it took her to cut down the one box she was working on. I have used the tool to cut Coroplast, thin plexiglass, this plastic sheeting, and very thin wood molding for interior door frames, when the tool started slowing down and cutting became more difficult, I knew it was either time to recharge the tool, or sometimes just hold the tool, not cutting anything, hold in the safety button in and power button, to allow the tool to run with no cutting, this will resharpen the blade, and if the tool still has enough of a charge, continue cutting until it bogs down, then a simple recharge takes care of that. Just about anything you cut with a pair of sharp scissors, this tool would probably cut as well. Yes, I can recommend this tool, it's a great tool to have in your arsenal of home improvement and cleanup tools. It will definitely help you get the job down much faster than a manual cutting tool for many different materials, which makes it an indispensable, versatile, and worthy tool to have.

This thing works awesome for cutting up cardboard boxes so you can tie them up for the trash man. And it cuts through cloth like butter! I used to sit for a long period of time cutting up old jeans with scissors to use for work rags. This will do in five minutes what it would take me 90 minutes to do with scissors.

I like this product when it works. If I am cutting a straight box with no corners, this works well. When it comes to corners or bulky bits, it balks. It also doesn't hold a charge as long as I would like it to. It is too bulky to navigate small spaces. It is good for straightforward cutting, but all boxes are not created equal. I did not find it good for cutting fabric with a pattern.

What a wonderful tool this is for breaking down delivery boxes and anything else that requires manual cutting. I get a lot of deliveries and before this Worx Zipsnip, I just accumulated many empty boxes that were very difficult to make "recyclable ready". Box cutters were a pain and a bit sketchy to use and tearing up the box with my bare hands became impossible as my hands got older. Along comes this Worx tool and breaking down boxes is fun and easy! The blade easily cuts through cardboard, thin plastics and anything else where you would need a box cutter or scissors. The charge lasts a very long time and doesn't take long to recharge. I highly recommend this Worx tool! I just love it!

Bought this to cut boxes for recycling. It cures way more!!! I’ve cut carpet with ease! Great product!

Totally worth the purchase. I've had this one for a year and four months. Almost hadn't had to change the blade. It comes with a couple of extra blades, but in a year and a couple of months, I haven't had to change it.IIt works beautifully, cuts through cardboard, thick, thin cardboard, plastic, thin metal. It's there are not enough words to say that this is something that you should have in your home. I was using scissors and knives before to cut through things, and now I just have this one thing.I charge it overnight before I go to sleep. I plug it in. That charge will last me weeks cutting everyday literally. So yeah and go get yourself one it's worth it.

It works great and is super satisfying to cut down all my cardboard. I’m giving it only 3 stars because the power cable plug that goes into the device only lights up to charge if I’m actively pushing it in, and doesn’t if I let go of the cable.

This product is to much good

Sharp, light , sturdy, comes with a spare wheel in a nice case. Little powerful giant hand tool! We’ll-done.

This is great. Cuts up huge boxes really quickly. Very handy to have on hand.

They don't come with an English plug for charging they cut fibreglass sheet with ease and without frayed edges makes this job a breeze

Perfect for all my cutting needs and the extra blade is a bonus. Will highly recommend
