Left my cat's claws full of splinters that now I can't remove. It is just not sharp enough, it's really blunt. I wouldn't advise to buy this product.

At that price, I shouldn't have been surprised. The pliers aren't sharp, and the claws splinter. Absolutely not recommended.

The claw trimmer is not sharp at all and really hurts my cuddle, so much so that she even screams in pain! Absolutely not recommended!!

It should be more like scissors; I'm not happy with it.

Splintered both large and small cats nails. Awful product. Regularly use these types of clippers so unsure why they are now so terrible.

I even tried it with a toothpick to see weather it is just me or is the blade really not sharp enough....it's the blade It seemed to rather crush and splinter the nails, cat was also not happy so I had to quit using it and return to my own nail clippers :/

Really annoyed with mess these made of my kittens' claws. The mechanism of having to push the claw through the cutting hole rather a straight edge like normal nail clippers is really awkward. They split and splintered the claws on both of my kittens leaving them distressed and uncomfortable. Don't waste your money!

We took these to the vet to show us how to clip our cats nails and they just tear the nail instead of clipping them properly. The vet wasn't impressed.

We bought the scissors based on the description. However, they're absolutely useless. The claws splinter, and claw fibres get stuck. I can't recommend them.

The claw scissors lasted exactly 4 uses for trimming claws before they became blunt. Afterwards, it was no longer possible to trim our dog's claws without them splintering in an unsightly and, above all, painful way. For cats or small dogs with soft claws, the scissors might be sufficient, but I would definitely advise dog owners with slightly larger dogs (and therefore larger or tougher claws) against purchasing them.

This pair of clippers is complete rubbish! My cats' claws splinter, and the clippers have been blunt from day one. Never again!

Very bad. The claws of my English Bulldog splinter when cutting because it’s not sharp. It seems to hurt him a lot :(

I’ve only used this claw clipper on my cats once and won’t be using it again, as it tends to break the claws rather than cut them! It’s also very uncomfortable for the cats!

Unfortunately, we also had to realise that with these clippers, the claws of our young Vizsla bitch are more likely to break than be properly cut. Aside from the fact that it looks really awful how the claws splinter afterwards, it doesn’t seem to be particularly pleasant for our girl either. We tried twice to cut her claws with them. At the end of the procedure, our dog was trembling under the table and only came out again after a good half hour. I can’t understand the positive reviews here. Our dog now goes berserk just at the sight of the clippers…

Unfortunately, when using the pliers, the claws tend to break off instead. I only tried it on two claws and then decided to stop using it.

The scissors unfortunately fell apart after the first use (three guinea pigs)!

Our tomcat had bitten his claws off, so we had to trim them for him. At first, we used a regular nail clipper meant for human use, but then we decided to get one specifically for the cat kit. Said and done – ordered, received (very quickly, by the way), and tested. The blade must be completely blunt. His claws were totally splintered, and the clipper left parts of the claws intact. After one paw, we quickly put it aside and opted to get a regular nail clipper from the pharmacy instead. That one works significantly better. Absolutely not recommended for any animal.

When I used it for the first cut, I was really happy – the pliers were absolutely great. But yesterday, I wanted to use them again to cut something, and what did I find? The blade was out and couldn’t be fixed anymore. So, I don’t find the pliers very durable if they’re already broken now.

For dogs with harder claws or larger dogs, it doesn't work at all to trim the claws—the cutting edge of the scissors just slips away instead of cutting. Maybe it works for small dogs.
