Review on πŸ”΄ Baumgartens Mini Hole Punch, Multi-Colored (BAU20270) by Gelin Battle

Revainrating 3 out of 5

♦️This is not landscape quality. Thin and cheap.♦️

This tiny single punch measures only 1 1/2 inches. See my photo of a puncher vs tape measure for scaling. This is not a scrapbook stamp. The case is made entirely of inferior thin transparent plastic, stainless steel parts are also very thin and of poor quality. This is a Dollar Store product and having seen it in person I expected to find it in a pack of two when I bought it there. I was hoping for a small improvement in scrapbook quality as I bought it as an add on which is usually a decent quality product reflecting the savings for grouping with an existing matching order. Baumgarten's Mini Hole Punch Assorted Colors (BAU20270) I ordered two, one was clear and one was clear, light blue. It breaks easily when put in a bag or backpack. It does NOT break the standard weight recipe card which is why I bought it. Cheap thin index cards, he punches them one by one. ♦️ BOTH PLASTIC BODY AND STAINLESS STEEL PARTS ARE CHEAP QUALITY - think dollar store not scrapbook. The plastic shell is attached to the bottom of the punch. It's loose and falls. It holds knocked out points, doesn't hold much, and when it comes loose they fall out. ♦️ SMALL GAP BETWEEN THE STAMP AND THE BASE - The gap between the stamp and the base is minimal. Even though it punches 5 sheets of paper at a time, it's difficult to get 5 pages between the punch itself and the base. scratches on paper. 🌐 IN GENERAL - This does not hold up with regular long-term use. If you need it every now and then, this might work for you. The only thing I can think of that they would be perfect for is if you have a craft project for a birthday party where each kid needs their own kick to save time, and then you send it home with each kid in their gift bag . . That being said, it's not a practical punch for repeated use. If you have any questions, ask them in the comments and I'll be happy to answer them.
