This thing is a tiny little work horse. I’ve been saving boxes for months to line the bottoms of my garden beds with and I was dreading breaking them all down, but this little cutter made it so easy.

This cutter is very handy. It fits your hand very well and is very easy to use. I have used it to cut paper, wrapping paper, and cardboard. It went easily thorough the paper and wrapping paper. I had to put a little muscle to go through the cardboard. I know the guard is there for protection, but I would like for it to be where you could snap it off to be able to cut bulkier things. That’s why I took off a star.

This is a pretty cool tool. I use it to make piñatas.
( See photo)
It cuts carboard good and cut my time down to ¼ to what it usually takea me with scissors. The down side is it jams easily with the thickness of the cardboard. Thats why the 4 instead of 5 stars.

Im a 5'2 female with small hands and I can work the safety button no problem. If you have arthritis or other hand issues this might be an issue for you. My work around to that is use your non dominant hand to press the safety while holding it with the other hand, I have done this myself with no issues. I have one complaint of my charger being defective from the get go, the way they tie it in the box made mine not charge, right where the electric cord was all bent and I had to move it all around for it to get a proper connection. Im going to contact the company to see if they will send me a replacement charging cable and that will tell me how well this company will really honor their warranty. I will come back to let everyone know how they handled the situation. Gotbthis to cut down the endless shipping boxes frim my endless shopping lol so I can fit it in my recycling bin, live it so far.

Works great on most cardboard. It can struggle a bit with some thicker boxes (example in picture) or with boxes that have a thick paper printed overlay, but it will still eventually get the job done with a little effort.

Saw BB had the Worx Zipsnip in stock and was curious so picked one up to give it a try.
Unboxing:
The Zipsnip came with some instructions a charger and the cutter itself, that’s it, pretty simple.
Using:
The first thing we did was to plug in the included charger and let it charge till the light turned green “about 6 hrs”, then we got to trying it out. It reminded my wife of a small circular saw with a funky blade, and that’s a pretty accurate description. It’s very lightweight and easy to handle, plus it has a security switch that is spring loaded and must be depressed every time you squeeze the handle to activate.
I’ve tried cutting paper, heavy weight paper, thin to thicker cardboard, cloth for cutting up rags, even a piece of old carpet “low pile” and it went through everything like butter. It’s great at cutting up shipping boxes and you don’t end up with a sore hand from using a manual tool. I have some arthritis in my hands, and this is great for some simple cutting jobs that are hard to do when trying to hold scissors or box cutter. The guard does make it a little difficult at times to line up but that just took some practice to get it right every time. Even if you do some light metal work this will go through thin gauge metal too.
Conclusion:
If you do a lot of cutting “paper, cardboard, plastics “it went through some pretty heavy old jugs we had”, various types of cloth, and even went through a coconut milk can like it was nothing. It’s very quick at cutting and the battery lasts a very long time. The blade is replaceable and comes out with one single screw, so maintenance on it is a breeze. Even the piece that the blade runs up against in the guide is replaceable. If you do a lot of crafts and cut mainly long straight lines this is a big help, it will cut curves but need to be larger, and it cuts so fast it will take some practice getting it right.
This new Worx Zipsnip is going to be one item on top of my shopping list for a Xmas present to give people, I know they will love it.

A Trimming Delight That Makes Mundane Tasks Fun!

The WORX - 4V ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors is a versatile tool that makes trimming & cutting a joy. I found that the hassle of cutting cardboard to fit in the recycling bin is now a simple task that I look forward to with ZipSnip. I use it to cut cardboard & those tough plastic packages that fill the retail shelves today. No more fighting those packages & getting cut with the sharp plastic edges as I stab the package with a box cutter or cut it with hand scissors.
Safety was clearly integrated into the design of ZipSnip & was not an after thought. The cutting blade cannot start rotating without pressing & holding the safety release with your thumb. This is a brilliant & most effective design that prevents unintentional activation by a person, or by being bumped in a drawer. An integrated blade guard that keeps fingers away from the rotating blade, enhancing safety even further.
The blade has a self sharpening design, making it always ready to go & reduces the battery power requirement of trying to cut with a dull blade. The 4 Volt built-in Lithium-ion battery charges completely in about 5 hours & will hold the charge for several months.
CONCLUSION:
The ZipSnip Cordless Electric Scissors is a well designed tool that exceeds my expectations & earns my highest recommendation.

A lightweight handy electric scissors

This 4V ZipSnip cordless electric scissors doses the scissors job. It is light weight and easy to operate with one hand. it has a lock switch like the one in cordless drill drivers, but unlike that it does not switch the direction of the scissors and does not remain permanently on. It will work as long as you keep pressed the on/off switch. Which is I found good safety mechanism.
Cutting speed is medium, and it is good for cardboard, paper, PVC and other think plastic material. The blade is sharp and cutting is smooth. It can be operated with either the left or right hand so good for anyone.
This is a basic scissors and one thing I felt that if there was a mechanism kind of somehow to auto forward while cutting would have been great. One has to push slightly (not too hard) to cut through. It has only one speed. It is very handy for cutting long cardboard pieces straight, you can also cut curved or round on the edges but needs careful cutting.
Overall a lightweight handy electric scissors that does the job efficiently.
Pros:
Light weight
Safety on-off switch
Sharp blade
Good for straight cuts
Cons:
Only single speed
No auto feed for the cutting material
