I purchased one a few months ago to replace my Tonic TH guillotine trimmer. I have to say I am not impressed with it. I have been scrapbooking and card making over 30 years and this trimmer doesn’t do it for me. I am not sure why so much hype over it. It does not cut clean at all. I am quite disappointed to say the least and ended up on a mission to find a better option. I recently attended a Stamp & Scrapbook expo and purchased a CutterPillar paper trimmer with light and I absolutely love it! The cuts are very clean and I probably won’t ever have to replace the blade. They told me it’s quite rare. I ended up getting a glow pad too with a self healing mat. Excited about doing some fussy cutting or ruler cutting! I talked to several people at the show who had the same cutter and raved about it! I also visited the booth several times and played with the trimmer before I bought it. From now on I won’t allow myself to get sucked into believing product reviews without trying them before I buy. Thanks for saying that. I have had the CutterPillar for a good 7 or 8 years and still love it but was considering the TH, maybe just because it is new and not bright green (that's my big complaint about the CutterPillar, the bright green is not my jam). Never heard of the glow pad but it looks intriguing. Sold out on the website but I have an LED light tablet, I wonder if I can DIY something. Thanks for saving me $$$! |

Oh yes, enjoy your CutterPillar. I certainly am! Also, if you have the light tablet you can order just the self healing pad to use over it. You don’t have to get the glow pad. I got it because I also quilt and will find it very useful.
