was hopful for these but they fall short of expections [SEP] i bought these to replace my well worn clippers the presentation of the product on amazon sold me on these unfortunately i was very disappointed i tried the fingernail clippers first and they did not cut my nails very well in contrast they more tore the nails than clipped them i did not try the toenail clippers for that reason i tossed both rather than waste the time to return them i will stick with well know brands from now on
