Top quality at a great price

We were looking for the best scissors for cutting podiatry felt. The combination of thick felt with strong adhesive on one side made this difficult with conventional scissors. The Vivainstruments scissors have proved excellent, such great quality and ease of use.

Initially

Initially, the first set of toenail clippers didn’t meet my expectations. However, Viva Instruments demonstrated outstanding customer service by promptly providing a more appropriate set of clippers within a week.

Blunt

The scissors were extremely blunt I was unable to cut podiatry felt with these. Useless.

Dear Louisa,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, and I’m really sorry to hear about your experience. The scissors should certainly not be blunt, and I completely understand your frustration.

The scissors you purchased are manufactured with sharp/blunt blades, which means they are not as sharp as sharp/sharp blades. This design is intentional for certain podiatry tasks, but they should still cut effectively so what you described is certainly not right.

I’ve just sent you an email so we can look into this further and get the issue resolved for you as quickly as possible. Please check your inbox when you can we’re here to help and want to make this right.

Thank you,
Viva Instruments

Very happy.

Fast delivery and excellent quality product, a joy to use - just wish my old nail clippers had broken twenty years earlier!
