Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cuts straight and I like the light weight and handle for easy storage.

I bought this trimmer a few months ago but didn't want to write a review until after a few months of use. I was apprehensive about buying this product as some of the reviews reported that it wasn't running smoothly, but I didn't have this problem at all. It cuts perfectly straight for me. It makes the same "cutting sound" as a powerful guillotine cutter, which surprised me a little given how light it is. This sound means the blade is making full contact with the metal plate with the same pressure as an expensive, heavier slicer. To avoid uneven cuts, I had to spend extra time getting the left side of the paper to line up exactly with the grid line the entire page, but this applies to any guillotine paper cutter. Also, I put my left hand on the paper and press down to keep the paper from moving as I cut. roll-bound book), I place a strip of tape over the grid so I can quickly line up the wrong side of the paper against the edge of the tape and make a cut. I love how light this trimmer is (about 2-3 pounds) and how easy it is to carry with the handle on one end. It slides easily under my sofa for storage. I would recommend it to a friend in a heartbeat. However, this applies to any guillotine paper cutter.
