RubisClassic Tweezer, 1k102,Rubis Switzerland Swiss Made World Renowned Precision

Fantastic product. Best tweezers ever.

I’m an esthetician/waxer and I absolutely have to have excellent tools. These tweezers are precise & perfect. They get every hair course or thin. I purchased these in June 2023, it’s almost January 2024 and just before Christmas I noticed them beginning to dull. When not in use I store them with the cap on in a hard manicure type case. Now, these tweezers get constant use and they are still very much useable. I’m ordering a second pair because I love them & I feel better having a back up set. They are worth the money.

Country of origin: SwitzerlandTotal purchase price: 25.99We had Sephora tweezer for many years but over the years it took a beating.The tip was bent and wouldn't grip those pesky unwanted hair well...After enduring many years of pain and frustration, we finally decided to spurge and order this beauty.Well, it sure was money well spent for us.Pros:Again, it's Swiss made, practically guaranteed to be least toxic.It grips all hairs ( wet, fine, short or all of the above) very VERY well.It has an excellent build quality.I still have the German made Sephora tweezer (which is relegated to hobby and handy duty now..) but the Swiss is built even better then German steel with thicker metal body and longer precisely honed laser sharp tip.It's really built like medical instrument.Unlike the product photo here, the Rubis I got is bare metal finish which I prefer.( I will post my own comparison photo soon.)Cons:Maybe the price, but this is what we pay now for non toxic quality product.All in all, this is not cheap by any definition but worth every penny to me. This would make great gift.I highly recommend this product.It's five star is well deserved

It's the best tweezer I've used, but it has problems. The tips bends if dropped and it's no longer usable. the tip loses it's grip over time. It's very expensive.

The grip is perfect!

SHORT VERSION: Picks up fine hairs well when brand new, but comes out of alignment easily (read: becomes functionally the same as a dime store tweezer) and there is ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY offered by the company. When they go bad past the period where you are protected by Amazon's return policy, your only option is to throw them out.FULL REVIEWIf you've read the other reviews, chances are you know that the two big players in the high end tweezer market are Rubis and Tweezerman.I own several pairs of each.Both brands do a much better job of grasping fine hairs than the generic or even beauty product branded tweezers found at pharmacies, big box stores and supermarkets. This is because instead of being taken from a poured mold and packaged for sale, these brands are first ground in a process similar to knife sharpening. The goal is to provide perfect edges to the jaws without little spaces for hairs to slip through.As I said, both brands are good when new. For the finest hairs, I'd probably give the slight edge to a brand new pair of Rubis out of the box. Without question, Tweezerman has the edge with regard to both to durability, and customer service if something does go wrong (and with Rubis, it will!).The fatal flaw inherent in Rubis Tweezers is they come out of alignment if you look at them wrong. When this happens, they are no more effective than $3.99 dime store tweezers. Chances are that the bad reviews you see here describing Rubis tweezers that are not grasping small hairs were written by owners of tweezers that have come out of alignment in shipping.Of the four pairs of Rubis Tweezers I have purchased from Amazon over the past three years, TWO have gone bad. The first time it happened, it was within 30 days--great Amazon customer service got me a quick replacement.A second pair went bad a month ago, so I visited the Rubis Web site and clicked on "customer service." Strangely enough, no warranty/repair policy is described. I sent an e-mail regarding repair, and a few days later, received an e-mail from someone's personal AOL account (how professional) stating "we do not offer that service." When I followed up asking what warranty is offered, the response was "we guarantee that every unit is inspected before it leaves the factory."Yes, you read it correct. There is absolutely *NO WARRANTY* on these $30-$35/pair tweezers.This is the first product in a long time that I have seen where absolutely no manufacturer's warranty is offered. This is even more shocking for a high end product. I have no problem paying a premium price for something--but I detest dealing with companies that do not stand behind their products.Tweezerman, in contrast, offers FREE LIFETIME SHARPENING if one of their units goes bad. And if they can't fix it, they will sell you a new pair at ½ price.Taken in the context of the lower retail price, Tweezerman is the clear winner here.

I have used this brand for over 20 years. First ones were actually bought in a store in Switzerland when on a Swarovski member tour. Everyone who uses mine is impressed and I let them have them and buy myself more…from pluckin eyebrows, errant hairs that show up on your chin, splinters and as we live in the country for removing ticks! The are the very best.

It worked well for about 6 months and then it stopped grasping. I have purchased two pairs of these tweezers, they are so highly reviewed I thought maybe the first pair was a fluke when it stopped grasping. But just this week my second pair stopped working as well. Frustrating! I have much cheaper Revlon pair that I've had for years that still grasp, u guess I need to stick with the $6 tweezers
