Review: Fits for purpose - Fits for purpose Review: Not Great - For a Swingline product, I expected better quality. The product is fairly light which makes it easy to move around, but at the same time, it feels cheap and flimsy. More importantly, the blade will often simply bend the paper instead of cutting it. This happens mainly when trying to cut single pages. You almost need to do a stack for the blade to work properly. ## Features - EASY TO USE TRIM The Lite trimmer is easy to handle, with sharp guillotine blade and convenient alignment grid.

It's not quite strong enough to cut bone but you might have a fair shot going for the eyes or throat. **Q: Could I use this to cut card stock (say three sheets of the thickness of index cards)?** A: Not more then one sheet of card stock. I woke at a restaurant and it’s not capable of cutting more then one piece of 65lb cardstock for our menus without causing fraying of the edge. Not very professional. **Q: Would this work well for cutting cardboard, like cardboard used for shipping packages? Thanks** A: In response to your question, I took a heavy cardboard box that had been used to ship produce and tried to cut it. I cut the cardboard into several pieces and it cut smoothly but with a slight resistance (a little more force than with plain paper). Accordingly, within the dimensions of the cutting board and guard, you should have no problems. **Q: Is the blade self-Sharpening?** A: The package plainly states: Self-Sharpening Blade ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits for purpose *by G***S on 6 September 2022* Fits for purpose ### ⭐⭐ Not Great *by H***. on 4 April 2022* For a Swingline product, I expected better quality.
