Best Sally Hansen Nail Clipper, Control Grip, Clip 'N Catch 1 nail Deals

Customer Ratings:

For all the various fingernail clippers on the market, suitable for carrying in one's pocket (I have tried a number of them and researched, over the net, those available from manufacturers in many countries), overall like these the best.

I use the clippers for both fingernails and toenails, even though they do not provide additional leverage for thick nails; just taking a smaller bite per clip works fine.

However, I elected to remove the plastic "Catch-Control" mechanism, favoring the lower bulk of the clipper without this bulky plastic add-on. (The plastic "Catch-Control" mechanism can be easily removed if not to one's liking. A version without the "Catch-Control" mechanism is also on the market.)

Pros:

1. All stainless-steel, no chrome plating or paint to wear off; no sign of any corrosion, so far, from over 1 year of use.

2. Wider grip which makes handling and clipping easier, less pressure on one's skin and fingers, than any other clipper I have used or seen on the market/internet.

3. The cut, of the one pair I purchased and have used for well over a year, for both fingernails and toenails, is about as good as any other, including much more expensive brands I have purchased and used over the years.

Cons:

1. A non-flush rivet (to hold the nail cleaner) protrudes through the convex bottom of the lower handle; this can be quite uncomfortable when held in certain ways. The rivet head should have been flush or recessed, a small but important manufacturing design change. I may end up removing this rivet.

2. When closed, there is no position retaining mechanism for the clipper handle; the handle does not stay in-line with the body of the clipper in one's pocket. (The clipper handle position retaining design, two groves, does works OK when the clipper handle is in the open position.)

3. No case or design to prevent coins and other foreign objects from getting into the clipper and between the cutting edges (dulling them) when the clipper is floating around inside one's pocket.

4. Despite the additional ease of compressing the jaws, the clipper cutting capacity, is no better, perhaps minimally worse than a few good alternatives, than any other clipper on the market.

5. The nail cleaner has very rounded smooth edges making it almost worthless for the cleaning function.

6. No nail file.

7. The more expensive "catch-control", like most retaining designs on the market, is more bulk and expense and of little practical use.

8. No case or design to prevent coins and other foreign objects from getting into the clipper and between the cutting edges which the clipper is floating around inside one's pocket.

Final Comments: Like all the other designs on the market, there remain so many potential improvements which none of the manufacturers seem to pay attention to implementing.

Probably producing and marketing too good a design would interfere with future sales of low cost items.

This does the job and the catcher makes sure gross little clippings dont' fly out the sides. Nice wide lever.

Clips nails just fine, but the little catcher part seems sort of lame. Doesn't necessarily do a good job "catching" the nail clippings.

The nail clippers worked really well at first, but the fulcrum on this broke off within a week of me purchasing it.
