I use this trimmer on almost every single LO I make. I currently live in a one bedroom apartment so my scrap space is small. I know some of you can relate to that. I needed a trimmer and I needed something compact - this guy was perfect. The only problem I have is that sometimes I don't get a straight cut but I'm pretty sure there is some user error on those cuts. The extendable arm is sturdy and easy to read like all of the inch markings. The blade is ergonomic too. Thanks fiskars!
