There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
tl;dr - I was able to cut precisely on a line without specific measurement; I was able to accurately measure a distance from the paper's edge; I was able to cut 6 sheets of paper cleanly; they advertise it for 7 sheets, but the 7th sheet tends to get scored instead of cut.
The sheet count is questionable (maybe they somewhere specify a weight of paper for which it cuts 7?) and some specifics of the design could be a little better, but the cutline wire is a very nice addition over others I've used and it seems up to any task you could reasonably ask of a portable paper trimmer.
Some more in-depth points: Before I bought this, I read through a bunch of the reviews, and want to address a couple points from the negative reviews...
First and foremost: this is a portable paper trimmer advertised for "trimming office papers, coupons, photos and more". Now... I know "and more" is ambiguous, but I think given the general character of things it says it can do, expecting it to be good for professional card-making (to cite one example) seems like a stretch.
With that in mind:
1) Distance Scale Issues
There is a gap in the scale for measuring the distance from the cut line. The scale on the main body ends at about 3-11/16" ; and the scale on the folding arm starts at 4-1/16". (Some reviews claimed that 4-1/4" or 4 1/2" were not on the scale; at least on the current model as I received, both are on the arm's scale.)
Also I saw at least one claim that the scale on the arm is not accurate. I did not find this to be true. The arm is "sunken" relative to the main body, so there is a potential for parallax and it could be hard to read the scale correctly, but it is not mechanically off. Again it could be an older model was less accurate, but I think it's more likely that the photo used to "prove" the scale inaccurate was taken at an angle that exhibited parallax.
While the scale gap may not be at certain distance marks considered "particularly important", the gap does exist - as it must for this design of trimmer. If you need to measure a cut that falls in that gap, you likely will have to improvise. For one-off jobs that can be done. For jobs to be repeated frequently, it could get very tedious. Again note the type of job this model is advertised to do.
And while the arm scale is not off, it is potentially hard to get a good reading. It would be nice if they'd designed it to be on level with the main surface of the trimmer's body. Still, it's a compromise in support of the small size - hence "portable" paper trimmer. It may make accurate usage slower for cuts measured in that way, which again would be mostly a problem on repeated jobs for which a different class of paper cutter might be better suited.
2) A few reviewers were unhappy that the cutline is in the middle of the plastic part that pins the paper down, rather than at one side or the other. I found this to be a huge advantage, in that the paper is held in place on both sides of the cutline (unless trimming right at the edge of the paper). The supposed drawback is that you wouldn't be able to see where the cut would be, but there is a wire running pretty precisely over the blade path - and as a result I can use this trimmer more precisely than the previous one I had (which had the cutline off to the side of the plastic).
3) There were complaints about flimsy construction. I guess you're going to get that with any light-weight plastic product, but... well, it's designed to be light weight. Again: "portable". If you're of the mind that everything has to be made of solid steel to be considered sturdy, then maybe this isn't for you; but it seems suited to stand up to the wear and tear of cutting through a few sheets of paper.
Bottom line: if the measuring arm were a little better designed to make accurate measurements easier, and if the advertising set clearer expectations about page count, this would probably be a 5-star review. It's still a huge step up from other inexpensive portable trimmers I've used.
