Paper Cutter, 12 Inch Guillotine Paper Trimmer a4 with Automatic Security Safeguard and Side Ruler for Coupon, Craft Paper and Photos (Pink)

I am sick of cheap Guillotines that break or go blunt !!! I have binned two in the last year. I have a very light requirement - most chopping 10 - 20 A4 or A5 80gms... so I am loathe to spend £££ on a high end version. I got this one around 6 weeks ago and it is perfect.. It is robust enough for light use, the blade is good and sharp and you can replace the blade if it becomes dull (Not got to that but I expect it will be OK). I can certainly recommend. Does 4 sheets at a time without any bother - though I tend to just feed 3. I know they say it can do more, but experience tells me that it is best to do less. I love the guides and the measurements. Super helpful to get the cut where you want it. Bournemouth UK

A bit flimsy but ideal for occasional use.

Year down the line, using almost daily and haven't had to change the blade once yet. Made work life so much easier. Clean cut, good quality and gives guild on where it will cut

Excellent product. Does what it says on the box. There are no loose parts so can be carried safely. The only grumble is that I find if difficult to see where the cut will be and sometimes cut off the first line of print. This is a user fault, just need time to get used to a new paper cutter. Very good that in future only need to purchase replacement cutter unit not the whole thing.

The ruler doesn't have any obvious line as a guide for where the cutter will go. So very hard/impossible to use accurately. (There is a kinda notch in the cutter which shows roughly where the blade is... but using this to line up cuts is guesswork.)Picture shows a piece of card stuck under the ruler with double sided tape and then cut to give a guide that can be used to align your cuts. Had no problem making accurate cuts consistently since adding this.- I will swap the card for a clear piece of acetate or similar plastic when I next have one handy.The guillotine is otherwise quite decent. There is a little bit of wobble on the ruler/guide, but hasn't seemed to be an issue in use.Very thin cuts (if you miss your line and wish to trim closer) can be a problem as the knife folds the paper rather than slices as there is no hard edge/support under the paper during a cut as with better quality/expensive guillotines. - thus accuracy is important to get the cut right first time. - hence the need for the extra guide as per photo.For the money, it works (after an easy mod.) It's doing what I needed it for.It's compact, light and easy to store.

i like this item, i use this machine for cutting a4 paper, also photography work. great accuracy, very easy to use.

This does what it says on the tin.The only issue is sometimes the blade will come out. It pops back in easily enough though.

The media could not be loaded. I had to replace my old one, I'm happy with my new one. Cuts perfectly, definitely worth the money.
