Good product
The first one I received was terrible. It just smashed the pill. I contacted amazon and they quickly sent me another EZ Dose pill cutter. The first one was purple and this one is blue. Don’t know if that makes a difference or not. I had one of this type for many years and it basically still works but the pusher part finally broke when a friend jammed and forced it. It stayed sharp and cut fine after an infinite number of pills. The new one they sent works wonderful. The pusher helps to get the pill cut dead center. I’ve had it several weeks and cut pills daily and it is just wonderful. Tip it over and catch the pills in your hand and do what you want with it. I use one half and leave the other half in the cutter until I use it later in the day. If you want a wonderful pill cutter, get this one. Just don’t be in such a hurry that you jam it and then pound it down. This will serve you for many years with a wonderful precision. This is a little medical device and should be handled gently.

The best pill cutter on the market
I have been using these for many years but for some reason I couldnât find them, or they were priced very high. Several brands I used could not cut the pills the way I needed them to be cut, and the pills were not secure. You had to hold of the pill cutter at an angle to keep the pill in the V-shape. The cuts were never right. This pill cutter securely holds the pill so you can position it in a way to get just the size you need.

A kitchen knife does a better job
It doesn’t matter how well you center your medication, it will never cut the pill in half. One side is always bigger than the other or it chops them in several pieces. Your best bet is to grab a kitchen knife and cut with that. Not worth the price, time or effort. I used it 4 times and now it just collects dust. I gave up on that poorly made cutter.

Best pill cutter I’ve ever used. But may be difficult for elderly or those needing assistance.
I was a bit worried ordering this cutter, seeing so many reviews stating they had recieved either the actual Ezy Cut or some random one, so I was pleased to get the right one.This is one of the best pill cutters I have ever used. Admittedly, there are a couple ways you can improve your own results. You can’t just toss the pill in and expect a perfect cut. My medication, as well as many others, needs exact dosing and we need a reliable cutter to ensure we are getting our proper dosing. Ezy Cut is the answer for me.First you have to push the little orange anchor shaped part against the pill to make sure it is snugly held in place. I see some reviews stating their pill ends up in the back corners of the cutter. The only time that happened to me was before I realized I needed to push the orange peice against the pill. Since doing that, my pill stays right where it is supposed to.Close the top just enough that the blade is just resting on top of the pill, then quickly snap snut.Closing it slowly just caused it to crumble when I tried it that way.If the pill is scored, when resting the blade on the pill, ensure the blade is perfectly, (and I do mean PERFECTLY,) lined up with the score. If it is not, upon cutting, the pill will cut unevenly and much of it will crumble. When properly lined up, i get a perfect cut.Again, this is only my experience, I do not wish to, nor am I attempting to, invalidate anyone else’s.So yes, while this pill cutter does need to be used in a precise ways, when used correctly it works very well. The pill pictured was not scored, and as you can see, it was perfectly cut, no crumbles.My only other complaint is that a slight crack formed a few days ago in the front, and i have not had it long.. I cannot feel the crack on either side, which is odd, but hopefully it doesn’t get worse.I definitely recommend this cutter over the dozens I have tried.However, the reason I am giving it 4 stars out of 5, is because for those with bad vision, disorders that cause their hands to shake, elderly who may not have assistance with their medication, lining up the pills may be very difficult for them. And really what makes this cutter syand out from others and what gets such optimal results requires secure and proper placement.

Just ok
Itâs ok works well but I feel like I could break it very easily and itâs very tricky to line up the pill. If you have to cut it more than once.

I absolutely LOVE this thing
I get all my health care from the Veterans Health Care System. My doctors have seen fit to have me take about a dozen pills a day. Several of which must be cut in half. They provided a pill cutter, but it is all plastic with no actual blade and it was a bitch trying to cut any pill that wasn’t round. I struggled to find something that would work better.I found this one and, like everything else on Amazon, it had extreme reviews both positive and negative. I decided to try it. I absolutely LOVE how this thing holds the pills. I place a pill of any shape and slide that little gizmo forward to hold the pill steady. I have yet to have a pill be crushed or not be cut in the center. With my old cutter it was always so tedious trying to cut oddly shaped pills. They would either be crushed or the two halves would be no where near the same size.I only have one issue. I can’t figure out how to dump the pills. I mean, there is a tray there to dump cut pills into, but they won’t dump. They sometimes get stuck near the hinges and I have to shake the thing to get the piece of pill out. I’ll figure it out, but it really doesn’t matter to me. Since this thing totally eliminates the frustration of trying to center and cut long or oval pills, I’ll take it over my old cutter any day. It doesn’t seem that sturdy, but it’s only job is to slice a pill. How sturdy does it need to be? If I do eventually break this one I’ll have no problem buying another. I like it that much. So will you.

Surprisingly Difficult to Use
On the plus side, this pill cutter does cut pills. In particular, it does a good job of centering oblong pills so that they can be evenly cut. Where this pill cutter absolutely fails, though, is actually closing the lid so that the blade can cut. The arms that hold up the blade guard (so that you don’t cut yourself while placing the pills) jam in place. Every. Single. Time. It’s like the designers fundamentally failed to understand the physics and geometry of the mechanism.This makes the pill cutter almost (but not entirely) useless.

Has taken ages to find a pill cutter,that will work alright with film covered tablets. This one works well. Plus the shield guard is very cool.

I have bought a number of pill cutters over the years as my cats are on small amounts of medication. This is the best pill cutter I have used. The blade is sharp, and the tablet is held in place firmly whilst it is being cut. I like that you can also store the cup pills in the unit. I recently purchased another one for my mother and she loves it
