I was never satisfied with standard finger picks.
These really seemed promising because out of all of those I've tried so far, these ones really mimic the fingernail the most. I bought both this version, the Polycarbonate ones, as well as the ones made of Delrin which I tried first. The first fit was very uncomfortable - a rather sharp edge digging directly into my cuticles. So I did some filing and cutting (as recommended) after which they became much more comfortable. Unfortunately they also became worthless. That edge and overall length of the top part is important for the overall hold and leverage. Now they pull up away from the fingernails when picking.
I have quite small hands, or maybe better to say short fingers. I suspect that's my biggest problem, not the product.
So maybe someone with different fingers think they're fine. a lot of people recommend them on the web. And I must say they were really promising at first. But after rendering them useless I obviously can't send them back.
Oh well, if you have the extra cash lying around I guess they are worth the try
Good that I left these ones untouched - they're going back. Sorry Fred!
