 Cuts paper like a hot knife through butterApr 18, 2009
By K. Lomeli
I was looking for a paper trimmer that could handle the demands of cutting accurately through several sheets of cardstock without frustration and I found it. I wanted to be able to cut multiple pieces of paper of large and small sizes.
The last reviewer made the comment that you have to take a couple of extra steps. No big deal, In fact this is a positive feature. You lift up a lever to elevate the cutting blade rail and push it back down to lock it into place. That brief extra step locks up to 8 pieces of thick textured cardstock in place without any shifting of the cardstock, and with little effort. This total thickness of the cardstock was 1/8th of an inch. I found that I could cut 4 pieces of thick textured cardstock in one very smooth effortless movement. If I put 8 pieces down it took one push forward and one back and to cut through all of them. Someone with fairly severe arthritis would find all of this easy to do. SO MUCH BETTER than my Fiskars rotary cutter. The magnetic paper guage did a good job of blocking the paper at the length I wanted. I found that I could use it to cut a piece of paper as short as 1 3/4 inch. The trimmer is sturdy and has well defined markings in both english and metric measurements. It also has marked areas for various photo and paper sizes. The trimmer has it's instructions in a picture form right on the platform and has a storage area for extra blades and cutting mats. It comes with an extra cutting blade, perforating blade and cutting mat. I will be giving away 3 paper trimmers and enjoying this one for a very long time. If you are more than a casual scrapbooker this trimmer is for you.

good productApr 06, 2009
By M. Henry
We like the new cutter purchased to replace the Carl personal use model we had for several years. The Heavy duty model takes two additional steps (locking/engaging and unlocking/disengaging the blade) but is well worth getting used to because it cuts more paper and efficiently. Thank you.

CARL 12210 rotary trimmerAug 09, 2010
By Deacun
I was looking for a trimmer that would trim my booklets and decided on this one because of the features and especially because of the 5 star reviews. I am very pleased and well satisfied with the heavy construction and performance. The booklets I am trimming are 9 sheets of 24 # paper folded in half giving equivalent of 18 sheets 24 #.
The locking bar holds the paper securely in position. The inch scales along the edge seem to be very accurate. Rather than push down with a lot of pressure on the cutting head, I make 3 - 4 passes with lighter pressure. This will also lengthen the life of the cutting strip under the blade. The cutting strip can be reversed when it is worn and also turned over, giving the equivalent of 4 strips, since it is off-centered. There is also a spare strip & 2 extra blades provided, 1 regular blade and 1 perforating blade.
I highly recommend this cutter.

Great for small office use!Mar 31, 2010
By Jennifer Warren
WE LOVE THIS TRIMMER. Period. After several near misses and a lot of wasted paper, it was time to toss the two worn out guillotine cutters our staff inherited and bite the bullet. As a small office staff for a non-profit, professional trade association -our budget is tight, our time is short and to save time and money, we do a lot of our information pieces in house.
This trimmer is solid, easy to use, does beautiful work, and it's safe (unless you give yourself a paper cut...) Considering the workload we put it through, it's been one of our best investments to date, and worth every penny we paid for it.
HIGHLY recommended.

Carl Rotary TrimmerSep 11, 2009
By G. Berman
This cutter is the best I have ever used. Cuts straight and true, as long as you take a second to make sure the stock is lined up. The clamp holds very firmly even if you have to make a few strokes (when cutting several layers of card stock. One thing I found useful was to use a square to line up the vertical guide. That way the cuts were exact. The perforating & scoring blades worked exactly as designed. I was really glad I chose this model after researching several out there.
