3.0 out of 5 stars Does the job - some of the time, October 6, 2007

I saw one of these in a mall store and figured for ten bucks, it was worth a try.

It works much of the time.

The design is intended to protect the user from cutting their fingers on a very sharp rotary cutter. You have to open a lock to get the top and bottom halves apart. The lock is very poorly designed and is tough to open. This failing alone, frankly, is enough to justify looking for an alternative.

The Pyranna will not fit over every plastic package design. And in many cases, you can only cut out a section of the plastic, not cut it entirely away, so you still have to wrestle with the packaging. The device will, however, cut the heaviest plastic I've encountered. But oddball package designs defeat it.

Is it worth ten bucks? Yeah, but you might want to look at other such devices first.

This is a great tool. I had seen ads on TV and wanted one because I get so frustrated opening those packages that everything comes in these days. This works just as advertised. It is quick and easy and does the job. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that it is a little awkward to manipulate. The safety design is that the two halves close to cover the blade and initially opening the "jaws" to get the package you want to open inside is a little clumsy. But it works and that is what counts.

I love this thing. I open most of my kids toys with it plus anything else in a plastic package. It is so simple so fast and just a brilliant tool to use. Forget using scissors or knives you can really get hurt. The Pyranna is safe, fast and easy. Thanks for making a great product.
