Do you like it? Is it easy to get/find the replacement blades? I saw the AC Cut Up 12-in combo trimmer at my TM today at a good price ($15 - I'm cheap), but I resisted b/c I wanted to get the peas opinions first.

AC Cut Up combo trimmer
I'm sort of in the market for a new portable paper trimmer - my current one (Fiskars) still works okay, but it's pretty old and starting to show signs it may not last. It's started to get loose and snap apart (where the blade pops out) more often.
Not a huge deal - it goes right back together, but still...each time it does that I feel like it gets a little more loose and then I wonder whether it's still cutting straight. I'm also starting to wonder how much longer I'll be able to get the replacement blades for it. I've really liked this trimmer, had it forever & use it a ton. I like that it's pretty basic, small/lightweight, portable, simple - so all of those things are what I'd be looking for in a new trimmer. The Combo blade is just sort of a "nice to have" feature - and if not for the fact that I saw it so cheap at TM, I don't know that I'd necessarily look for one w/ a combo blade, KWIM?
So, please - if you've used (past or current) the AC Cut Up Combo, tell me what you thought/think of it.
Feel free to enable me, but only if you really think it's a good trimmer! TIA!
