'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
My favorite KitchenAid scissors are just $6 for Prime Day
Use these KitchenAid shears all around your house.
If your home is anything like mine, scissors are one of those items that frequently disappear (even though I swear I left them in that drawer). About a year ago, I bought a couple pairs of these KitchenAid all-purpose shears so I could stash them in two different locations, and I have no regrets. Not only are they sharp and easy to handle, but they're dishwasher safe -- and they're currently on sale for Prime Day for just over $6.
I use these shears for everything from opening up packages to cutting up my toddler's food. They come with a sheath to protect the blades and for safer storage, too. They've remained sharp over the course of the year of use. And if you don't believe me, check their Amazon rating: They have 5 stars and over 50,000 reviews.
