These scissors offer way more cutting power than just about anyone can muster with muscle alone, and best of all, it's effortless. You can't help but love a product that makes life so much easier, especially for folks who suffer from arthritis.
You can cut nearly anything with these, from delicate pattern paper to sheet vinyl flooring and window screening, with just the press of a button. Our favorite job for these, though, is to easily slice into that impossible-to-open, hard plastic packaging that seems to be on most everything these days. It's no match for these scissors.
When power scissors first came out, there wasn't too much concern about ergonomics, but we know so much more these days about how important that is. Black & Decker's made this power tool a treat for the body to use, with a nice cushy grip, super light weight and no force needed.
One charge will keep you cutting for 70 minutes, and then you just plug it in and charge it again. There's no end to what you can use these power scissors for - gift wrapping, sewing, scrapbooking, decorating, jobs around the house, crafts, clipping coupons. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Okay, but...:
When I first got this, it was great. It would eat through most cardboard, plastic packaging, you name it. Then, and I don't know how it happened, the battery got extremely weak. It barely holds a charge and needs frequent recharging. Now, it will surrender less than a quarter of the way through a job, if that much. It's still fine for "light" cutting tasks, but don't ask it to do any more than that.
Believe it or not, you probably need these!:
If you have received parcels in cardboard boxes, then trimming off the flaps or sides before placing in the waste basket or trash compactor will reduce trips taking out the garbage. I was astonished how quick and easy it is with these, they zip along *extremely* fast! This is not just another optional handy gadget, it is something almost no consumer should live without! Also ends the struggle with that stiff see through plastic display packaging (in my experience although this seems to contradict... more info
Disappointed:
This product couldn't even cut through the packaging it came in. I'm sure it'll be good on paper, but it's not good with plastic packaging.
