Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Stab yourself while opening packages Comment: I'm sorry to give the Zibra package opener a bad review since it was brought to market to help people with a task no one wants to do in the first place. However, as a product designer myself, I couldn't believe that this company allowed the final product to be sold and marketed.
I take issue with one feature in particular. The razor blade at the end of the handle. The trigger for using this razor looks just like a handle lock on other handheld tools, so users first using this product have a high likelihood of stabbing themselves with a razor blade right in the palm of their hand. Try it.
It looks like during a design review meeting, the marketing deptartment decieded they wanted to add some "value-added features," too bad it turned out to be a really bad decision.
Be careful! Customer Rating: Summary: Needs to improve safety lock Comment: This is a great product, I just wish it would either eliminate the extra features or improve them. For opening blister packs, it is fantastic. However, the safety lock broke very quickly and never really worked well in the first place...the t hing woud pop open by itself. The screwdriver has fallen off, and I never even used it. Customer Rating: Summary: Frustration gone Comment: Until Amazon manages to get everything packaged in frustration-free packaging, this little toy is a great thing. My favorite part is the bent scissors that let you cut the plastic close to the edge without getting your hand scratched up. This is a wonderful thing. Customer Rating: Summary: Open It Comment: This is one of the best products I have ever received... Makes those hard to open plastic packaged items a breeze. It includes the battery compartment screwdriver and a utility knive in the handles. I did have a problem with the connection that holds it together breaking and now a girls pony tail holder has replaced it. I bought numerous for Christmas gifts and will make sure they open it first so they CAN open their other gifts. Highly recommend it for everyone especially our senior citizens whose hands may not work like they want them to. Customer Rating: Summary: Vrey useful indeed Comment: This is a very well-designed device, and with its extremely sharp blades and comfortable grip, should take enormous hassle and frustration out of opening those thrice-damned sealed clear hard plastic packages so many things come in these days. (It should remove some danger as well, considering how easily one can cut oneself on that plastic while trying to tear one open by brute strength.)
I came very, very close to giving this four stars, because--guess what sort of packaging is used for this device? Yup, that's right... so how do you get it out safely and easily?
Actually, they used less durable plastic than one usually sees, so, since I ordered two, I was able to free one sufficiently to cut out the other effortlessly, and then freed the first the rest of the way. I now look forward to many years of reduced frustration with plastic packaging.
