THE WOST PET PRODUCT EVER!!!

On: 2008-05-24

I have had dogs all of my life (38 years) & this is by far, THE WORST PET CARE PRODUCT I have ever purchased. Not only did it not detect my Chocolate Labradors quick, but it wouldnt even cut through the nail. Furthermore, It felt very cheap. All my other trimmers have had weight to them. This one felt like it was going to break everytime I tried to cut one of my dogs nails. I will be returning this product tomorrow!!!

Simply does not work

On: 2007-07-09

I was excited about this product as it seemed to address every pet owners worst nightmare - cutting the quick when trimming your pets nails. Unfortunately the product simply does not work. I tried using the method shown both in the product manual (which wasnt very good to begin with) and thought that maybe I was doing something wrong. I then watched the instruction video on the product website and followed the directions exactly. The device always showed red and never displayed a safe to cut green light. I tried it on all three of our dogs, two with dark nails, one with light. In a nutshell, dont buy this product. I would recommend looking at the Dremel nail trimmer instead. Weve had a much better experience with the Dremel (also available on Amazon for a great price).Dremel 761-03 7,000/14,000 RPM Cordless Pet Nail Grooming Rotary Tool

Don't Waste Your Money! A rip-off!

On: 2007-06-12

I bought this clipper for our cocker spaniel and paid about $30 for it at the pet store. The red light goes on at the very tip of the nail and then when you try to clip it, the clippers are so worthless that they just chew up the nail without cutting it. So your dog is already in for a horrible experience. I took the small size clipper back to the store to return it for the larger size. I just got it home and had the exact same experience with the second pair - I could only get it to cut through one nail - it chewed up another one before I quit. DO NOT BUY THIS CLIPPER! Its horrible and a total rip-off. Our poor dog is now traumatized by this thing.

Not as advertised

I am very disappointed in this product. It is the nail clipper for pets that is suppose to show when it is safe to cut the nail. It does not work! Not only did the safety lights not work, but I could not even cut through the nail of my miniature Schnauzer. Sounded too good to be true and it was.

Not yet ready for prime time

I have a 45-pound Norwegian Elkhound who is skittish when I clip her claws because Ive hit the quick twice over the past few years. I bought this new clipper hoping that it would solve my problem. The idea behind the clipper is good: it detects the different temperatures in the claw depending on whether the sensor is over the quick, close to the quick, or over "quickless" claw. Unfortunately I found the following problems. First, when scanning the claw you have to move rather slowly from the paw side of the nail to the tip in order to see the change in the LEDs (red-over quick, yellow-near quick, green-safe to cut). I couldnt keep my dogs paw steady enough to scan the nail. Second, when I placed the clipper over the tip of the claw that I knew was safe I found that the cutter isnt sturdy enough to clip her claw. The cutting blade twisted away from the portion of the blade that the nail fits through. Im now trying to find out how to return the clipper. It still needs work.

Now, to be frank, if you have a dog that doesnt have tough claws this may work, but I wouldnt guarantee it.

Its a pity this product performs this way because this is something that is seriously needed and Id buy another version (if it works) in a flash.

Difficult to use

I tried a number of different ways to get this product to work. It always kept the red light on until completely off of the nail. I returned the product with great difficulty
