Basically you can cut paper, card and other typical materials with ease. Even cardboard boxes can be cut through with no problem! They come in a few mainstream colours like blue, pink and green. Apart from the curve on the scissors, they are coated with fluorine as well to make them non-stick.
Mine was purchased a while ago so the rubber on it has already discoloured leaving it looking a little… camera-shy…This is what they looked like at the beginning anyway!
For the first few months I was very happy with them. They do what they say on the box and even make cutting open envelopes and bits a joy, if that can be imagined. To cut through sheets of paper and card without exerting much pressure and getting a clean cut like this was something I hadn't experienced before actually. After several months though, I noticed that the non-stick coating did become a little grimy with bits of glue residue since I was using cello tape regularly. You can get it off with rubbing alcohol, but it isn't ideal of course. The blue rubber also became dark and discoloured in places ~/(>.<)\ Overall though, I actually use them every day and cannot imagine going back to my old scissors anymore (sorry…!) I try not to cut too much tape so they are pretty clean nowadays. For the price they have lasted a while and aside from cosmetic reasons, I can't actually think of a reason to buy another pair.
