Pros & Cons
Pros
It takes some practice to judge the whereabouts of the exact cutting line but having now used it a number of times i've got that sussed! Good illustration on the board of the machine to take the guess work out of where to cut without have to premeasur... Read More
Great piece of kit - i use it all the time for making cards or any guillotine work. Brilliant and very well constructed. For straightforward basic use, it's fine.

Fellowes atom a4 office rotary trimmer is a sturdy unit intended to cut up to 30 sheets of paper at a time. It's a great trimmer for a5 - a3 sheets, just not sure it ticks all the boxes we wanted it to.
Cons
The guillotine is difficult to use. The cutting blade depends on the pressure applied and can leave even a single sheet partially uncut. Cuts are uneven and the constant motion of having to press as you cut eventually hurts your wrist.
The electron paper trimmer is a paperweight. It is difficult to get a straight line due to the 'give' in the blade. The battery is fiddly to fit and the led guide light is useless.

Its very well built and i would have rated it 5 star except the running rail to which the rotary knife is attached obstructs ones view of the exact position the paper will be cut at
