I have a customer who bought the professsional shears and she is telling me they aren't sharp anymore. She has had them less than a year.

I have a set and I can still cut through chicken with mine and mine are about 2 years old or so.

They have a 3 year warranty. Is this something that would be covered?
 
Yes. She'd have to send them back but they will exchange them for that reason.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes my Pampered Chef Professional Shears to lose sharpness quickly?

Always ensure you're using the shears for their intended purpose and clean them after each use to maintain their sharpness.

How can I properly maintain my Professional Shears to prevent dulling?

Avoid cutting through materials like bone or hard plastic, and use the shears only for food-related tasks. Additionally, consider using a sharpening tool specifically designed for kitchen shears to keep the blades sharp.

Is it normal for Professional Shears to lose sharpness over time?
