Customer Reviews of Apex Ultra Pill Splitter
Customer Review: A compact, easy to use, and affordable pill splitter
Summary: 5 Stars
I selected this product for my husband from a large variety of similar products, and am glad that I did. Although he is the one who needs it to split his medication, I also use it to assist him, and have found it easy to use and to clean. The blade remains sharp even after many uses. The cutter is small enough to store just about anywhere, and packs well in any type of luggage or carry-on bag for travel. I would recommend this product for those who need to halve their solid tablet medication, with or without a center line groove in the pill intended for halving with the hands. The blade is protected by a sheath while the lid is open, protecting users from being cut. This unit cuts small and medium sized pills in half well, and is not designed for other types of medication. A convenient receptacle catches the pieces after cutting, and the powdery residue remaining came be easily rinsed off with water. It is fairly easy to align each pill for an accurate 1/2 split. As a registered nurse, I have used pill cutters of similar quality while working in nursing homes and hospitals.Customer Review: Superb!
Summary: 5 Stars
This product works much much better than I had expected. It has a super sharp blade which is enclosed in a sheath while it is open. Place the tablet on the device, close the lid and the sheath retracts and very neatly cuts the tablet.
It is a bit like a guillotine, and is actually fun to use!
There is a reservoir or well just below the cutting surface (it's blue in the photos, as is the cutting area) so cut tablets can fall into the well. You can cut around 12-15 tablets before emptying the cut tablets from the reservoir back into the pill bottle.
Highly recommended. I've been using mine for around 2-3 years and the hinge is beginning to get a bit sticky, so I ordered 3 more to have in reserve...it is that good and valuable!
No pill segments flying on the floor, and absolutely no chance of a cut finger.
Try it, you will not be disappointed!

Customer Review: STRONG AND EASY!
Summary: 5 Stars
I like GSL's Sugar Balance glucose capsules.
GSL Sugar Balance - All Natural Diabetic Supplement
For some dumb reason they stopped making the easy to swallow 250mg version and now make only a 1700mg and LARGER horse sized planet of a capsule. The ridiculous thing is literally over three quarters of an inch long. But I find no competing product worthwhile. Writing to them was pointless.
What to do?
Well this splitter makes a perfect whack half way that does the trick.
I'd like for it to do fourths but on this capsule, it didn't handle that task.
If your hand is weak you can still succeed halving very hard pills with this.
Glad it is around.
Customer Review: Great pill splitter...even for those pills that crumble easily!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to cut Prevacid 30mg tablets in half for my infant son who takes 15mg once a day. The tablets crumble very easily. I originally purchased the Pill Crusher/Splitter with Cup and Storage Compartment sold on Amazon, but the pill still crumbled when I used it. I started to give it a bad review, then thought that maybe this tablet was just "unsplittable". So I decided to buy one more pill splitter, just to test my theory. I bought this one and it cuts the Prevacid tablets wonderfully. Unlike the first splitter I bought, the pill stays still while cutting and is cut cleanly in half without crumbling. It's wonderful! Don't hesitate to buy.
