Cchanged somewhat from the early original

I paid little more for the same pill cutter that I have had for about 8 years. Recently my guard, a piece of plastic, broke on mine, so I started looking for a replacement and hopefully to find the same brand, Shield. This one looks basically the same, but does not seem to be as sharp. The case does not shut as tight, with the snap shut effect. I am getting the pills cut, and trying different techniques of slamming down the top for the cutter, so as to not get the pills crushed, broken as it has done on me a few times. Maybe it just needs to be more worn in, but don't remember having that problem years ago. There is always some type of change in a product over the years, unfortunately. I would still recommend it over others, that are cheaper and flimsy, though.Read full review

Safe clean pill cutter

In the last two months I have purchased and/or received 4 pill cutters, this one is the best. I love the silicone mat under the cutting area because it prevents pill slippage during cutting and the safety shield. I would recommend this to any one wanting a pil cutter because of these fine features. Thank you!Read full review

Best pill cutter on the market

Best pill cutter on the market. My last one has lasted well over 10 years, and I just bought this one as a back-up. The rubber part that holds the pills, which makes it easier to make accurate cuts for any size pill, is its best feature.Read full review

Works great!

This is much more effective, and easier to deal with, than less expensive pill cutters. It's well worth the extra $2-3.

Some reviews complain about this and other pill cutters crushing pills into powser, rather than cutting them. The biggist factor in that is not the pill cutter, but the ingredients they put in the pill, like binders, coloring agents, preservatives, fillers, and the medication itself. Because of that, some pills are going to crumble like chalk no matter how you try to cut them.

I have to cut some pills for our cat that are pretty crumbly. The previous cutter I used mostly crushed them, and this one doesn't crush them as much, so that's a win in my book.

Best Pill Cutter

I have had many pill cutters and this is by far the best one ever. Great safety features, non slip area for pills, very easy to use. Highly recommend this.

Best Pill Cutter

This is the only pill cutter I have found that uses a textured backing to hold the pills firmly in place. Others are simply made of plastic and the pills just free fall (slip) making it difficult to get a clean equal cut.Read full review

Pill Cutter Works Perfectly!

I've used several pill cutters in the past and this one was the best. Decided to buy one for each of my other bathrooms. Very good product!

Best cutter ever - so far

pros:
Silicon tray taper holds all sizes firmly with very slight forward pressure from finger, perfectly centered at apex.
Thin blade cuts accurately and straight, with negligible powder waste: unlike it's predecessors.
Even cuts accurate/straight through factory tablet scored lines.
Slightly tip forward when cutting will deposit halves in holding tray, all ready for next pill.
Cut is completely: tablets with "skin" are cut through, no hangers-on.
Hinge leverage also makes cutting effortless.. about 1/4 pressure of the old blue models sold for years at drug stores.

con:
Plastic body more brittle than old blues - Don't drop on hard tile!. ;-)

Like the pill cutter.....

What I like about this pill cutter it has the little tray to catch the cut pills. If you have an animal you don't have to worry about the dog or cat finding the medications that can hurt them.
