SQOTD 6.9.20

Post by Tamara »

What is your favorite trimmer?

I've used the fisker for years. I even wore one out and bought a new one last year. But I'm not as happy with this new one. The triple track sticks and comes out a lot And drives me crazy. take me back to the good old days when it would be smooth sailing through all my projects 😁

I was having the same trouble with my triple track but I've had it for YEARS and it even made the 2,000 mile move and was in storage for almost a year! So I went back to the Fiskars Rotary Trimmer which I've had forever but hadn't used in a long time. I really like it! I can get a very thin slice if necessary and I can use other blades to get different edges like deckle and scallop!

I think if you contact Fiskars and tell them you just got it and what your problem is they may send you a brand new one or give you a coupon. They're really good about that. Worth a try!

I have a really old Fiskars trimmer. I"m actually looking around for a new one. I've seen so many pros and cons on all of them, that's hard to settle on one. So I've been putting it off longer and longer...and my cuts are getting worse and worse. It's very frustrating, but I don't want to settle on one and be just as frustrated.

I have Fiskars but have been using my Stampin' Up! trimmer most of the time.

I have a Fiskars one that isn't that great. I had a Fiskars for several years and it started making uneven cuts so I contacted Fiskars and they sent me a new one which worked great at first. Now that one is cutting uneven and sometimes I get a ragged cut and I have to manually move the cutting blade which is supposed to be self sharpening. I'm debating whether to contact them again or not. They are supposed to be guaranteed for life but I wonder how many times they'll send you a new one.

I have a Fiskars SureCut Deluxe and a couple of cheap Cuttlebug trimmers. The Cuttlebug trimmers seem to cut straighter than the Fiskars. I also have a couple of small guillotine trimmers that I love but they're not large enough to cut 12x12 paper. They are however very accurate and I will eventually invest in a 12 inch guillotine sometime in the future.
