Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OpenX Dual Blade Universal Package Opener
Customer Review: Utility Knife Works Just as Well
Summary: 3 Stars
First, I was a little dismayed that the OpenX Dual-Blade Package Opener comes in one of the hard-to-open-plastic-packages-I-bought-this-dang-thing-for. How is that for irony? After struggling to get the package opener out, I tried it out on another package...it wasn't as slick as I thought it would be, but did indeed do the job once I got the initial hole started in the plastic. It's a little tough going around corners with the opener, but eventually, it did work. I would recommend saving your money and just getting a good utility knife.Customer Review: I'm sticking with scissors
Summary: 3 Stars
I thought this would be the greatest tool as more and more items are coming packaged in clamshells and theft resistant packaging. I was surprised when I received it that it, too, was packaged in an impossible to open clamshell package!
I've tried to use this on a few packages and I've never had great luck with it. The blade seems to get stuck cutting through the packaging rather than gliding through.
I guess I prefer the scissors because you can use the leverage of them to get through thicker packages.
Customer Review: Finger- and Teeth saver!
Summary: 4 Stars
Great tool to open those impossible-to-open jewelboxes that all the electronic gadgets come in. Spares you getting your fingers cut, your teeth broken, not to mention the frustration involved in reaching the product. Originally I read the review on similar tools by David Pogue of the New York Times who mentioned the Dual-X. This tool has 2 blades that enbale you first to slit the package and then get the rest of the job done MUCH better than scissors, knives or perhaps, in desperation, hammers!Customer Review: A Wonderful Gadget, But with Shipping, Ridiculously Overpriced
Summary: 5 Stars
The OpenX Dual Blade Universal Package Opener is a "must have" for any household. It is especially useful in opening the clear, bubble plastic containers that package consumer products. I find it so handy that I bought two of them in case I misplace either one...!
However, the price of the item, especially when coupled with a seemingly usurious shipping charge, seems unreasonably high given the package opener's mostly plastic construction, small size, and light shipping weight.
Customer Review: OpenX is GREAT!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have tried every opener available and finally came across the OpenX and it works GREAT. It opens everything and it is very easy to hold in my hand. I think I have every other opener and am now going to toss them in the trash where they belong and only keep my OpenX. In fact, I think I will order a few more as gifts for Christmas!OpenX Dual Blade Universal Package Opener
