Not that I have anything to compare it with, as I am a new goat owner, but when I trimmed my kids for the first time, these worked like a charm. I figured since I would need to do their feet often, I wanted to get the best tool... seems I chose correctly!

Awesome hoof trimmers! I have tried several different brands of hoof trimmers and can barely get them through the hoof because I lack in the hand strength needed to cut the hoof. These trimmers allow me to cut through the hoof with ease, no additional hand strength needed!

Best hoof trimmer I've ever used. Wish I had ordered one years ago!

The main problem with these trimmers is this: you can't go back. Caveat emptor.

Quite frankly I have purchased trimming sheers for $10 as good as these. I thought I was treating myself to a really good pair for a change. I wouldn't discourage anyone from buying one, but for the price there are others out there.
