Section of blade that doesn’t cut
I would give this a 5 star if it wasn’t for the 2 inch section that doesn’t cut the paper properly. Not sure if I am returning yet or not, going to try and sharpen the blade because I really do like the cutter. It meets my needs perfectly.

Size: 15"Style: Paper TrimmerVerified Purchase
Functionality: This paper cutter is a reliable tool for cutting paper with precision. I used it for various paper sizes and thicknesses, including cardstock and regular printer paper. The blade is sharp and cuts cleanly through multiple sheets at once, which significantly speeds up the task of trimming and cutting.

Quality: The build quality of the paper cutter is impressive. It feels sturdy and well-made, with a solid base that doesn’t wobble during use. The grid lines on the base are clear and helpful for aligning the paper, ensuring accurate cuts every time. The blade handle is ergonomic and provides a comfortable grip, making it easy to apply even pressure for a smooth cut.

User Experience: Using this paper cutter has been a straightforward and hassle-free experience. The cutting arm operates smoothly, and the safety features, such as the locking mechanism, add an extra layer of security when not in use. I appreciated the ability to easily adjust the paper guide to ensure consistent cuts, which is especially useful for repetitive tasks. The size of the cutter is compact enough to fit on my desk without taking up too much space, yet it’s large enough to handle bigger paper sizes.

Overall Impression: Overall, this paper cutter is a fantastic tool for anyone who needs precise and efficient paper cutting. It’s well-suited for both professional and personal use, offering reliability and ease of use. The combination of a sharp blade, sturdy construction, and user-friendly design makes it an excellent addition to any office or crafting space.

Potential Drawbacks: One minor drawback is that the cutting capacity is limited to a certain number of sheets at a time, so for large stacks, you might need to split them into smaller batches. Additionally, while the grid lines are helpful, they can sometimes be difficult to see under certain lighting conditions, which could affect the accuracy of alignment.

Would I recommend this product? Definitely. If you are looking for a dependable and high-quality paper cutter, this product is an excellent choice. Its precision and ease of use make it a valuable tool for a variety of cutting tasks.

Final Thoughts: For those in need of a reliable and efficient paper cutter, this model is worth considering. It delivers clean cuts and is easy to use, making it a must-have for both office and home use.

This is a very basic paper cutter, lightweight, and just the right size for everyday office paper. The blade is sharp and it easily cuts 10 regular printer pages in one go.

The packaging is minimal but keeps the product in good shape during shipping. We have to install the handle, but that's no big deal.

There is a finger guide that is nice so we don't cut the fingers and is far enough away from the side we can see where the cutting edge. When not in use, we can pop the handle onto a hidden peg so it won't open. I store mine on end on a bookshelf when not in use. There is a strong chance of user error here as the safety is not intuitive. Someone wanted to use my paper cutter and tried to yank it open because they thought it was broken or stuck when really it was on the safety latch. I might put a sticker on the machine saying how to open it if there's a chance of other people using it in the future.

I found it a bit difficult to get a precise cutting edge but I could get it within 1 or 2 mm of where I needed which is good enough for the work I do. The surface was not really slippery, but not really grippy either, so the paper could move mid cut if I'm not paying close attention which is annoying.

On the whole, I'm happy with this. It exceeded my expectations and makes a great budget paper cutter. I'm using it for trimming PDF sewing patterns and it does that very well.

No way to line up the cut line but once you figure out the spacing you can use it very easily

Sharp, lightweight and I appreciate the locking feature. The finger guard, works really well, holding the paper in place. I’m really pleased with it.

Does not cut cleanly. Bends the paper. One sheet. Curved cut at the top ??? Not for me to take apart and sharpen on a "new" cutter. Tired of receiving sub standard items that have been previously purchased and returned. Wasn't worth the purchase for me.

Well I was a little worried this cutter wasn't going to cut my vinyl stickers cause they are layered with application tape and can get creased rather than chopped properly. (My previous cutter did that) but this cutter works really well so far and it's lightweight and very sharp! Good Buy & Good Price!!!
