"This is great especially for small pills! – the pill splitter works."

— Amy

"Garbage. Pill immediately shattered into fragments and rendered unusable. See photos. Reported poor quality. Chewy Customer Service Rep refunded money, said to donate, but this is so badly designed, I wouldn’t wish this piece of junk on anyone else. It only works to store pills in as it locks and..."

Bottom Line

Consider this product if you have small pills and are willing to overlook its design flaws. However, be cautious if durability and ease of use are important to you. Look for deals or consider alternatives for better value.
