5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for sensible users.
Such a simple and brilliant piece of kit.Very light. Cuts perfectly 350gsm silk baryta. 300gsm lustre and 290gsm metallic papers.I suppose if you put in to many sheets at a time you will have problems. If you’re sensible it works very well. £10.99 is a steal and worth every penny
5.0 out of 5 stars A paper cutter that's different - but very well designed and works well
When I unwrapped this cutter I was surprised to find how different it was from all that I had used previously. I started using a guillotine type (which I have replaced and use for tough jobs) then moved to the type which has a circular cutter moving along a steel tube. That one would cut cleanly if the cutter wheel didn't ride up whilst rotating which it often did.This cutter is a revelation once you get your head round it - that's because it's different using a small very sharp triangular bi-directional cutter blade in a small orange carrier which slides along the clear pressure bar. This plastic bar is not to line up your cut - as some have complained the slot is far too wide for this because this is the slot for the orange blade carrier to slide along!You lift the clear plastic carrier bar using the grip provided and line your cut up with the narrower slot which the blade runs in which can be done accurately. Press down lightly on the orange blade carrier to depress the blade from its safety position and run the cutter forwards and then back in a smooth motion. I found that since the blade has two cutting edges if a clean cut is not made in forward then it is on the reverse. The blade must be extremely sharp as the cuts seem cleaner than on other cutters. Lift up the clear plastic bar again using the grip and remove the trimmings. With captive guide bars this was always a nuisance as these trimmings often became trapped under the bar - not so here.This cutter handled greetings cards of double 300gsm card with no difficulty providing a neat, clean extremely accurate cut every time.The difference with this cutter is that it is not just a copy of what has gone before for many years but it is a totally new design. Someone has given attention to detail and come up with a marvellous product which outperforms most of the others. My only slight reservation is how rugged is it? The light plastic blade carrier and guide rail look as though they will not last - but time will tell and at the low price replacing the entire cutter may be better than replacing a blade.Congratulations from an engineer to whoever designed this product. Well done!Only had this one day, used it hundreds of times on thick card and have the following design recommendation.Several reviewers have complained about the cutter snagging and tearing the paper. Problem is that white nylon cutter carrier has square edges which can catch the edge of the paper and tear it. I have chamfer cut the two leading corners off mine and it performs a lot better. The alternative seems to be to start the cut not from one end as with a rotary cutter but in the middle of the paper and then move in both directions. This also seems to get around the problem.An easy design change as it only affects the blade carrier mould.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good quality but for light use!
This paper cutter is good quality and works well. It’s perfect for cutting a few pages at a time, ideal for home or small office us
5.0 out of 5 stars Very good
Very good for a small, cheap A4 gullitein.Very impressed.Can cut multiple sheets at a time and cuts very smoothly leaving a neat straight line unless you put too many sheets.Clear instructions given for how to change the blade for future reference.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Paper Cutter
Excellent paper cutter, it makes card making so much easier. I have done well over 1500 cuts on old greetings cards and still on the original blade. I highly recommend this cutter and it arrived very quickly.
3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good overall
Good for the price, the blade part comes off pretty easily but is easy to reattach, not the highest quality ever and feels a bit fragile but works as intended and the colour is awesome, cuts cleanly and stays in position, as described
5.0 out of 5 stars Fab
Arrived on time and as described. Bought this for bit of craft work. Works great. Fair price.
4.0 out of 5 stars Not Substantial but Does The Job!
This is a super lightweight trimmer suitable for cards and paper stocks.I currently have an Bolo basics roller trimmer which is fantastic. However i broke it a couple of days back trying to cut vinyl tiles! As a result i decided to order this lightweight trimmer just to use for my crafting.The trimmer is very different to others i have owned. It has a lift up flap where the triangular blade is housed. You slide the paper/card underneath this then close the flap. What does take some getting used to is the fact that paper cuts quite a fair bit inside the frame. I have tried to show this in my pictures. I am not sure if i like this style... it throws me off of my precision cuts. I prefer my roller cutter which slices right at the end of the cutting platform.So how did it perform, well it cut paper well. My first attempt did snag, i am not sure why, but after that the blade worked fine. I also tried 300gsm card and it worked well with this also.For the cost this is a great value trimmer. It's easy to store, has a fold out section which enables you to line up bigger paper. I will definitely use this for lightweight stock, but for more substantial stocks i will be reordering the Bolo basics trimmer.I hope you found my review helpful.
Répond à mon besoin
C'est la première fois que j'utilise ce type d'appareil.Il me convient tout à fait : je coupe du papier, du carton et des couvertures de reliures en PVC 250 microns.La coupe est droite et nette.
Good enough for small, non-critical cuts
I ordered it by accident but decided to keep it. It is working well for small trims on various artwork and doesn’t take up a lot of room on my desk. I’m not wild about the blade protectors obscuring my view to the cut line but I can live with it.
Great Paper-cutter
This has been working very well for cutting my Lino Prints which I use thicker paper made for watercolors and/or acrylics. It easily cuts through thinner drawing paper too. The paper cutter is small enough to easily store in a drawer when not in use, but long enough to cut various sizes of paper. I’m happy with this purchase.
Good product for your money
Works great. Use it to cut pictures. Blades cut on the first swipe.
Good Price!
I bought this item specifically to cut 140# watercolor paper. Wasn't sure it would do the job but it has worked beautifully. It makrs very neat cuts with one swipe. Very pleased with the results. It's small enough to store easily and the price is good. The side arm let's you cut larger paper and it also has markings to cut diagonally. You can replace the blade mechanism when it gets dull. My photo shows a stack of 5x7 cards that I cut.
