CRICUT INC 2006747 CRICUT Trimmer 12 DK Gray, Assorted

This trimmer is perfect for my card making! Cuts are accurate and clean!

Compact design; extension arm increases its range of uses. Excellent price point.

I was cutting a sheet of paper and found that I miss judged the size and ended up folding the page and then cutting it.

I wish I would have listened to the bad reviews. This is garbage. I bought this with high hopes. Im a small business owner and have a pop up shop this weekend; this was going to be my life saver! Being delivered 4 days before opening, I was ready to get to making. The very first(and only) thing I tried to cut with it was book marks I had made. The paper is a little thinner than cardstock, but thicker than regular printer paper. As you can see from the photos, it is not a smooth cut. It frayed the edges, and rolled some of the sides. The measurements are a little off as well. Making this lot of bookmarks b grade. Meaning I have to discount my product or use them as a freebie in packages. I will be returning this item. A real shame. Could have definitely used it!

I like that it’s light weight, easy to use and it doesn’t take up much room to store.

I was searching through amazon for a trimmer as I cut and frame diamond paintings I have done, and especially paperstock sheets to mount them on. I can rarely use this to cut a side of a diamond painting, not that it cant cut it (it can!), but a lot of times the outside row of diamonds isnt pin straight, plus trying to get it to butt up to the cutter while its so tall (from diamonds) is too hard. If you are doing a partial that has already printed boarders, this blade will sail through that with no problem! I find it difficult to cut a straight line with scissors, so this is a lifesaver! You can swing the arm out (or not), press your paper against the bumper line, line up the cutter, then press and slide. Voila! Perfect straight cut. Plus it is fairly lightweight and doesnt take up a whole lot of space. I highly recommend this!

You can load the blades from below, so the sliding portion doesnt get wider over repeated changing out of the blades. It has a longer arm than Fiskers. Dont push down hard when using the creaser; it doesnt take much pressure for it to crease. Love my Cricket paper cutter.

Makes cutting vinyl easy.

I love this tool. It makes cutting and measuring so easy. The only frustrating thing is that the the little blade keeps falling off. It does not lock in place. So, I keep losing it. If they ever upgrade I hope they make it have a clicking lock mechanism cause if we lose the blade then it defeats the purpose of having it.

Used it for a month and the blade is still good as new! Would recommend for people that need to size paper for their notebooks/binders/etc.
