Good afternoon everyone. Between my wife and I, we do a lot of online shopping and end up with a lot of cardboard boxes. We have a small recycle trash can at home, so it was pretty easy to fill up the recycle trash can with cardboard boxes and other recyclable items. I started using a sharp box cutter knife to break down the cardboard boxes into smaller pieces, so I could fit more cardboard in our recycle trash can. Bending over to cut the cardboard into small pieces would start to hurt my back after several minutes and I had to be careful with the sharp box cutter not to cut myself.
A few weeks ago, Laura saw an ad online for this ZipSnip cardboard box cutter and bought it on Amazon (affiliate link). I was skeptical and reluctant to use it at first since I thought my old method was superior (minus the back pain and fear of cutting myself), but after using it for a few minutes, I could tell that this was a huge improvement. The blade is sharp and cuts through cardboard very easily and I don’t need to bend down to cut the cardboard into small pieces. Here are some photos of the ZipSnip and the smaller cardboard box pieces.
