[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The first thing I noticed when I put my fingers in the handle holes was how large the thumb hole was-- not so large that the scissors are difficult to use but unlike many other scissors I have used large enough that I knew they would be comfortable for using for large projects that require repetitive cutting motions. I also like the feel of the material used in the handle. It isn't the very hard plastic feel of many scissors that gets very uncomfortable even painful when used for long periods of time. The cutting motion is also very smooth. There isn't a "stop" feeling when cutting down meaning it doesn't require extra effort to get past that "stop" point. Also I am lefty but I have used right-handed scissors for years just because of the convenience factor. For other leftys like me I will say these scissors work great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The scissors are very comfortable to hold and the handles made them much easier to hold. Cutting thick stock was easier than with other scissors and my hand was not cramped like it has been in the past.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the ergonomic scissors - and now I never want to go back to the original scissors I had on my desk! Weight-wise it feels lighter than the those and more sturdier than the "Westcott All Purpose Value Standard Scissors 8." It snips nicely and feels very comfortable to use when you put your hand in it. I've been having carpal tunnel in my right hand so this eases my hand when I use it. The feel of the handle is also nicely done quite smooth when you hold it. I haven't gone too into testing it besides when opening a taped box or snipping paper daily.
