SHORT FORM I bought this cutter to trim promotional postcards for my husband’s short film, to be given out at a film festival. It worked to get the job done to cut out 100 postcards. The first 30-40 were pretty smoothly trimmed. After that point there was a noticeable decline in cut cleanliness, and some more jagged edges. (I wish I’d taken some photos of the stacks to show what I mean, but, ah well). Ultimately, it worked for what I needed to do in a pinch, and you get what you pay for ($8.79 on Prime Day). DETAILED Between test prints and final prints, I used this cutter on around 60 pieces of 250gsm matte photo paper, 260gsm glossy photo paper and plain copy paper, with each piece of paper needing at least 6 cuts (2 postcards per paper). So, after around 360 cuts on thick paper, how did and how is the trimmer performing? The cuts started out relatively smooth and clean for the first 20 pieces of paper (120 cuts), but got noticeably less clean afterward. Every so often I would use a brush to clean off paper residue from the blade and from the blade-well, which helped little at improving cut smoothness. The blade seems to dull very quickly. There was a slight work around, of varying the pressure when pressing down on the blade holder to use parts of the blade that got less wear. However this is not a good workaround, since if you don’t press hard enough, it won’t cut all the way through anyway. (Attached to this review, I’m including a video of how the cuts look at this point, without switching out the blade) For cut accuracy, the margin of error is about 0.125-0.25cm, which is pretty significant if you’re trimming with a standard trim/bleed size of ⅛”. The extendable side ruler is also completely useless for maintaining right-angle cuts. It hyperextends just too far past what would make a straight line down the side, and is very wobbly, so getting that 90º cut with it was impossible. I had a better time eyeing it and using the grid printed on the cutter. I know these are very specific, granular gripes. If you are using this for casual crafting, this is probably a great cheap tool to get. But if you want or need that needlepoint accuracy and the smooth cuts for a large quantity, it may be better to invest in something more substantial. Still a good tool though. Again, you get what you pay for.

Got this for my mom as a mother's day gift. She loves scrapbooking and has a junk journal. She absolutely loved it!! It worked as expected and cut great 💜💜

Cutting requires some tension to make clean cuts. Measurements on device not very useful but manageable. Blade sharpness is lacking. Not bad for the price

There's definitely a learning curve for this trimmer. I bought it to cut paper labels for my products, and it gets the job half way done. I understand you have to push down the dial when you are cutting but even if you hold it slightly to one side(believing you are holding its directly down) it won't cut through the paper and when I try to cut over the same line without moving the paper it never goes over the same line. I have not faced this issue with previous cutters. For card stock I believe it says it can cut through 5 at a time, it can barely cut through the one most times. I appreciate the four different functions but it lacks on the simply regular cut. Not a favorite of mine but it will do. The original cutter was delivered at a wrong address and the company was able to send a replacement right away which I really appreciate.

Easy to use and works great. Isn't always the best at cutting specifically, but that mostly goes for thicker materials. That being said, I appreciate that it has different kinds of cuts it can do. It makes it easier to use for a multitude of projects. The item was larger than I anticipated, but that was my bad for misreading the size. Overall, works well, and I don't regret getting it.

Does not cut well. I’ve been trying to use this trimmer for my scrapbook paper and the cutting preformed is lacking. The blade will skip and not cut in random parts of the trim line. After a month of use I’m not impressed. Not sure if I got a faulty product but would not recommend for someone who wants a trimmer for regular use.

I saw this on TikTok and I really wanted it. I am so glad I did it works really good and I love all the different ways I can use it

Excelente

Seems very good, just a bit flimsy, it may not last very long!!

孫は工作が好きですが、紙や段ボール等を 切るのが上手く出来なくて、いつも癇癪起こしてましたが、これだと安全に切れるのでとても、喜んで使ってます。

Has 4 functions and works great.

Cumple con todas sus funciones, aunque se atora un poco y siento que tiene poco filo que no sé si sería reemplazable en el futuro.

Easy to use, value for money.
