I wanted to try these but certainly had no expectations they would be as fabulous as they are. I have a hard time clipping my toe nails because my nails are thick and tough. I have several other clippers and none work like these do. I think a lot of it is the way the clipper is designed because I don't have to struggle to get the clippers to clip the nails. The handle design eliminates all the struggle or power you need to get the nails clipped. I am a very happy customer. I hate to have to depend on others to do something for me.
