Tim Holtz 12.5" Rotary Media Trimmer Paper Cutter

Absolutely worth every penny!

I did get this for a discounted sale price for my sister’s birthday. At the time I thought, “idk why she wants this thing, she probably got at least 4 paper trimmers”. Let me tell you, this thing is a beast. And, I doesn’t complain about cutting anything! Super easy, super nice to use AND for those of us who are annoyed at having to lift the bar every single time the darn thing is used? The Tim Boltzmann 12.5” rotary media paper trimmer doesn’t have that issue! Enough gushing lol. It’s a great cutter, you won’t be disappointed buying it.

Amazing

Customer Service was immediately helpful in missing part response. I just sent pictures and they helped me with a speedy return!

Not what I expected

Not impressed ... I went in with knowing Kathy King from Paper Phenomenon's review knowing it has pros and cons but everything does right? Well let's start with the blade mechanism. I had this about 3 months now and have had to call Tonic Studios to get a full replacement. It started jamming and making a God awful noise. It took them about 4 business days to decide what they will do then they shipped me a new one. This is extremely hard to see exactly where you're cutting when you pull the blade towards you. When pushing the blade you have to eyeball where you want your cut with the edge. You also have a gutter area where the small papers fall into under the blade. I'm always having to stop and clean out the small pieces. You also have to hold down the clear plastic piece to make sure you get a straight cut. As for the ruler From 6" to 6.5" you have to kind of guess. You can't cut anything from 1" or smaller I guess I expected alot more thought would've been behind this coming from Tim Holtz and Tonic Studios. With the price and the names behind It it's just a huge let down. Now to find a trimmer to cut small pieces
