Fullicon Multiple Pill Cutter for Small Pills, Stainless Blade, Black

Wow! I wasn't expecting it to be so good!My meds are very densely compressed 12mm long X 6mm wide x 4mm thick.My 3mth supply normally take me forty minutes to break in half by fingers, and that actually hurts my fingers.Some time back I did invest in a single pill splitter which whilst it took fifty mins, it at least gave my fingers a rest, but I couldn't find it so looked on Amazon and saw this.The "AQ Swift Cut".It reported it could cut multiple pills at a time, and I thought "heck, even if it did two at once that would be a improvement", expecting it to be a sales gimmick, what if it was, I could always return it, so ordered it for £8.99.I've just put it to the untimate test straight out the box, eight! Well, maybe I was expecting too much, but incredibly it managed FIVE... Yes, FIVE tablets in one go!... I managed to do all my pills in 25mins!...So, the secret to doing multiple pills is space them out with a gap of about about 2mm and bring the side in so they just grip gently. Doing this means when the blade comes down and spreads the pills to either side, they have some space to go into the silicon when the blade pushes them apart.I checked the blade after (by bringing the lid down over half way) and it was just as sharp as when I tested it before I started.It feels very well made, and for sure it functions as it should, giving a very clean cut with just a little more force than my single pill cutter.I personally have no use for the pill pot supplied, and the brush, whilst I suspect useful, I would prefer if I could access the blade to wipe it down so as to removed all trace of my medication so my partner could use it for their medication, as there is no way to truly clean the blade between medications with the safety features in place. A medication that may be safe for me, could be dangerous for her, or, if we had a child, for them. So be aware of that as I feel an improvement here is needed.In it's current design the blade is held firmly, and akin to the thickness and rigidity of a popular utility blade, but being half the height, and one long piece, not replaceable. There is no twist or warp to the blade when cutting as there is additional support along the sides of the blade. The blade is also well protected and sharp.The dial to adjust the sides is a little stiff, maybe that's just my product, maybe it will work better in time, but I believe it to be part of the design so it doesn't move too freely when set to the width of the pills it needs to hold. There is good grip on the dial, and the edges of the dial extend about 6mm on either side, so an appliance such as a cosy grip that's used to open tops could be used, safe to say this dial offers a positive feel to it's movement.The silicon components offer good grip, and whilst they do twist the pills a little as you close the sides, if you compensate for this they hold amazingly!The product is a good size, fits my hand very well, but I do have hands that take a XL glove. But place the product on a flat surface and push down and it will work just as well for smaller hands or those with less compression strength.Under compression the top doesn't twist, this was a surprise, it means it has been designed and constructed to tight tolerances which is good.Material wise it isn't flimsy, the ABS has substantial thickness in all areas it needs it (except one which I'll mention shortly), thought has gone into the design of areas that need to be thick for strength, and a couple of areas that are thinner as no forces are applied, such as the pill collector area, even the blade protector has added support, as does the blade holder itself.Time will tell how long it lasts, but I will update this review as I'm very curious as to the longevity of this product myself.I feel it's only other downside (aside from the cleaning of the blade) will be the hinge clips. I mean, it survived my use, but I think over time this area may fracture as a lot of pressure is put on two points, history has taught me this will be it's weak point, but I also feel the designer took this into consideration, and again, this does have some addition support, so I'm on the fence about this one part...Is it value for money? Yes.Having now used it I feel it is value for money and I won't be sending it back.I've taken more time writing this review than I did taking the pills out their foil, putting them in the pill cutter, and putting the cut pills in their pots.

I bought a tablet cutter from my local chemist a while ago and it was nothing short of useless. It crushed the tablets into small pieces and powder, rendering them unusable.I purchased this one on Amazon hoping it would be better but expecting the same. It’s a much better product and leaves my first one standing by miles.You place the tablet or tablets (you can cut more than one at a time) turn the little wheels to close the space the tablet(s) lie in and just close the lid. Not very much pressure needed. Then just open it up release the tablets and there’s even a little box to store them in and a little brush to remove any debris. So easy and works perfectly 9 times out of 10. Highly recommended.

Best one I’ve tried so far, with a bit of practice it works fine.

I am very impressed with this cutter.Being able to cut multiple tablets saves alot of time - I cut 28 tablets in half in less than 5 mins.My previous cutter only did one at a time and seemed to cut it into three - this one cuts neatly into halves, with very little crumbs.Having arthritis in my hands, I wasn't sure if I would have the dexterity to close it (which cuts it) - but it was alot easier than I thought.The blade only comes out as the top comes down - safety feature.The cogs allows you to size the gap to the size of the tablets.Open it out fully & use the provided brush to clean any bits - to be honest, there wasn't much.Certainly worth the money!

Not the usual Fullicon quality.. I really liked the idea of this,however it has a tendency to crush half of the pill instead of slicing in two. I have tried this with one, all the way to 8 small tablets and every time, half was crushed.The blade is also not centered properly.It does work, if you only intend to use one half of the pill and don't mind it being slightly on the big side of half, but all in all, I was disappointed with this particular cutter.The adjustable rails are a fantastic idea! However, crushed pills fall in the gaps and prevent the rails from closing, also, if you slightly tip it backwards whilst chopping, all the crushed pill bits fall out of the back.All in all, if youre not worried about losing half of the tablets you chop, it's not a bad gadget, quick and convenient to chop, and very safe thanks to the hidden blade, which has a satisfying click (like a stapler) when you chop.Not the best product I've had from Fullicon, but it'll definitely have its uses for some people!

My cat takes small pills but needs 1.5 in each dose. Bought this to help with splitting them in half but it does a terrible job. Even just one at a time it was awful. It didn't cut evenly and mostly left me with two thirds of a tablet and then a lot of broken bits. Those broken bits then fall down the holes where the mechanism is and just grind into the gears. It's probably fine for bigger tablets, but for little 3mm ones it was really poor. Had to bin it, waste of money.

I was a bit sceptical due to the lower price, but I'm pleasantly surprised.It's very sharp and easy to split the tablets in half or quarters even, and you can add more than one tablet, saving even more time.It appears mechanically sturdy and not flimsy at all.It comes with a handy little plastic tub to keep all your split tablets separated.Fantastic product!

I've used this item for over a year and am very happy with it. It does the job perfectly, ensuring the correct dose is available. It's neat and compact. I like the small pill container and cleaning brush included in the packaging. It's very easy to use and stores away neatly in its cardboard container

Non è migliore di altri. Non è preciso esattamente come gli altri

impressed. about the size of a medium stapler. easy to set up the tablets and works really well. came with small pill box ideal for storing the split tablets

The sale and service is very good.. i received the product on time and in in good packaging . The product is absolutely useful.

I was really skeptical about this one. 6 small pills, size of 1/2 TicTac breathmint, cut into???...and evenly??? YES!! IT DID!! I'm totally amazed and have cut like 24 of these pills!! They ALL were cut in half evenly!! Even without matching the score lines! Made very strong and sturdy. The design is so easy to use and handle. I have to cut my kitty's pill in half to fit into gel caps and this is perfect!! Place in between the rubber grips, turn dial to tighten pills in line and lower top onto pills then press firmly. Amazing. Very happy with this cutter!
