I used this to cut coupons..never cut more than 10 sheets at a time...coupon paper is very light weight paper. Handle broke off! I have no receit ..so no refund.

When the cutter works, it works great. When the blades go dull, it can create more work, and quite a lot of frustration. THEN, to find out it's "self sharpening" and there ARE no replacement blades available. . . Well, needless to say, I'll do better...

Consumer review (staples.com)
Returned this cutter. The cutting arm doesn't raise high enough to cut!! It was made of cheap, plastic materials. Because the arm doesn't raise high enough, you can't cut more than one or two pages at a time. It advertises that you can cut 15 pages...

Working on a family project. Needed to cut booklets to size. The blade was so dull, that if you didn't use JUST the right amount of pressure and put the paper in JUST the right place, the paper edge would looked shredded. Thank goodness the printer...

Used for paper and cardstock. We've had this cutter for about 2 months and the blade is dull...it just folds the paper over.
