great pill cutter December 2, 2007

I bought this because my old cutter's blade got loose. This is one fine pill cutter. The pills go into this slip-resistant place, then after the blade cuts them, the cut halves drop into a well. That means you don't have to empty the thing after every cut. Just 5 minutes before writing this I cut a bottle of meds. I'd buy another one of these in a second.

Easy, Neat and It works January 20, 2008

Very simple to use - excellent design. Set pill onto its stage, bring down lid, pill easily splits and then halves are stored into a small well for quick and easy retrieval. Cut several in several seconds and can be safely stored and preserved Appreciate its ease and the earlier positive reviews that led me to this one instead of trial-and-error with others. Got mine from drugstore.com for $6+

Great Device July 31, 2008

This product works much much better than I had expected. It has a super sharp blade which is enclosed in a sheath while it is open. Place the tablet on the device, close the lid and the sheath retracts and very neatly cuts the tablet.

It is a bit like a guillotine, and is actually fun to use!

There is a reservoir or well just below the cutting surface (it's blue in the photos, as is the cutting area) so cut tablets can fall into the well. You can cut around 12-15 tablets before emptying the cut tablets from the reservoir back into the pill bottle.

Highly recommended. I've been using mine for around 2-3 years and the hinge is beginning to get a bit sticky, so I ordered 3 more to have in reserve...it is that good and valuable!

No pill segments flying on the floor, and absolutely no chance of a cut finger.

Try it, you will not be disappointed!

Great for small pills September 15, 2008

I have a bunch of small pills that need cut in 1/2's & 1/4's. This pill cutter is great for that. I also have a large, thick pill that I need cut in 1/2's that I prefer a different pill cutter for. This one will cut large pills, but it is a little cumbersome.

Good cutter, some nice features, thouigh limited lifespan November 7, 2008

I have had my cutter for a few years now. I like very much the nonskid/soft pad under the pill - keeps the things from skittering away when the blade hits them (thus avoiding beveled cuts). The blade guard has probably kept me from slashing my fingers a few times, too.

My only complaint (and who can really complain about at item this cheap but I'll say it anyway) is that after a few years, the plastic blade guard starts to get stiff and stop sliding, and the cutter becomes very hard to close.
