I bought this for my son who is a digital artist and sells his prints. He needed something more heavy duty than the plastic cutter from Michael’s crafts. This cutter is exceptionally well made. It’s solid (made of metal) and meticulously designed german engineering. Expensive but well worth the price. My son said the blade is very sharp and precise and that he is able to trim even the thinnest edges cleanly.

I have been wanting a new paper cutter for some time, I have gone through 3 different cutters in the last 2 years. I came across this one and did not hesitate to purchase it. Yes, it is more money than some, but it is well worth the money. I am a paper crafter. I make cards, labels, stationery, this cutter has been fantastic from the first cut. it will not disappoint you. I Love it, and it will allow me to have a better-quality cut of everything I make!!

I purchased this for trimming photo prints from my Epson P5000 printer. I’ve now trimmed over 500 photos on this trimmer build quality is fantastic. Super sharp cuts. This is the best paper cutter I have owned. Highly recommended wish I made the investment in this cutter sooner than using some of the cheaper cutters. Only downside is it’s a little hard to make smaller cuts, especially anything smaller than 3 inches

Asla kaydırma yapmıyor, ek aparatının altında mıknatıs sistemi ve kilitleme sistemi olmasından dolayı bıraktığın yerde sabit kalıyor. cift bıçaklı olmasından dolayı kesimi harika. pürüssüz, hızlı ve mükemmel kesimler yapılabilir. Kullanmadığınız durumlarda dik durması için ek bölüm yapmışlar. Bunun sayesinde daha az alan kaplıyor.

Husband loves the cutter. Unfortunately,it came with 2 missing screws. Called customer service and they shipped them to us and included few spares!

This is a fantastic machine. The way it traps the item being cut is outstanding, leading to very accurate cuts without the wobble. The blade is cloaked so you cannot possibly cut your finger or thumb. The blade is also very sharp so it cuts cleanly. The guides don't move. I have been in photography for over 60 years and this is the most accurate trimmer I have ever used. Highly recommended.

This is far and away the best paper cutter I've ever used. It is bigger than I anticipated though, so you might want to measure your office or craft room to be sure you have room for it. It's easy to use and makes clean, straight cuts. It says it can accommodate up to 20 sheets of paper at once, but I think it would be difficult to get a stack of paper like that under the pressure rail. It is solidly constructed, so should last a good long time. I think the instruction manual could be better - on the plus side it is written in 27 different languages.

It took me a bit to figure out how to use properly, each cutter has it's kinks, but this one works super well! It's very pricy but I was having such an issue finding one that cut without leaving frayed edges. I make prints for clients so it was important to have a large enough one that had a dependable cut.It's difficult to store since it is so large, and it's bulky, so that's also a downside.

I have only had this a couple of weeks and did quite a bit of research on paper trimmers before making a decision. So far really pleased with the cutting so far. I have always had one of the small paper trimmers which leaves a slightly ‘turned’ edge on the cut - this does not. Yes it is a bit large and heavier than the normal crafters trimmer, but it is very stable so helps with accuracy. The guidelines are clear and the gauge helpful to align paper. It stores upright neatly under my desk. Would recommend.

Extra super trymer, wycina nawet tekturę 1mm z naklejoną naklejką i laminatorem, jestem bardzo zadowolony z towaru, nóż krążkowy bardzo dobrze tnie trzeba umieć dobrze naciskiem ruszyć i tnie jak brzytwa. Polecam wszystkim za niedrogi trymer cienkie kartki tnie bezproblemowo.

This is the best trimmer I have ever purchased, and I have tried many brands that are out there and never been happy. I am a crafter, so I need a good trimmer that I can use on a daily basis. I mainly cut cardstock and I love that the cuts are clean and crisp and bur-free. I know this trimmer is quite expensive, but I believe you get what you pay for and this one is worth every dollar I spent on it.
