DURABILITY, FUNCTIONALITY, GODD QUALITY FOR THE PRICE. STICKINESS AND STURDINESS.THANK YOU!

have used this crafting punch over and over and over again and still going strong. I have made hundreds of circles with this punch, if not 1000

Great price and works amazingly well

Works fine for cardstock and printer paper, but was a no-go for printed sticker paper. Wouldn't punch completely through stickers on all sides and stickers got jammed inside every single time. Sleek design and otherwise easy to use, but must set on a flat surface and cannot hold in hand ergonomically to use.

Love this punch! Works great. As other reviewers said, when using thinner paper it helps to put in multiple sheets.

Easy to Use: The 1" circle cutter is so easy to use. A child could easily use this tool. Anyone with limited grip strength could probably use it (I'm thinking of my grandmother with arthritis in her thumb). It's actually fun to use. My paper was 16pt thick, and it had no problem cutting it. Quality Cuts: The cuts it makes are crisp. I bought it to cut circles in postcards to convert them to door hangers. (I wanted the hole, not the circle of paper.) It made the job so easy. Well built: The item feels very sturdy. I love how compact it gets and how little storage space it takes up. I expect to get years (decades) of occasional use out of this tool.

My intent is to use this to cut perfect sized filters to go into the portafilter basket for making espresso. This unit was recommended on an espresso channel on YouTube as being exactly the right size. Unfortunately, mine arrived and the very first attempt to cut didn't result in a punched piece coming through, nor would it open again after that. I really worked at it and eventually pried it back open with a great deal of effort (and the locking mechanism was NOT engaged), but only after completely mangling the filter I was trying to cut, both the uncut portion and the cutout piece. I tried on several different kinds and thicknesses of paper including a single sheet of relatively lightweight laser printer paper. What I found is that this punch is poorly machined. The Cutting edge is pretty imprecise and fairly jagged and somewhat dull when you really examine it closely, and it doesn't fit very precisely to the other edge against which it is doing the cutting. One section of the "blade" is so badly machined and such a poor fit that it never ever succeeds in cutting through a piece of paper, but rather tears it in just the right way so as to get it immediately stuck firmly in the mechanism, locking the punch into a closed position with the newly shredded paper bits completely wedged between the "blade" and the other metal surface so that it's very stuck in the closed position. There is no technique to get a good cut, whether going at it slowly, swiftly, firmly, gently, or any combination. It just gets completely stuck every single time and will never produce a proper punch. Every piece of paper processed with it gets completely mangled. Returning to see if maybe I can get a good one. Otherwise I'll be seeing if anybody else makes a 2.25 inch paper punch. UPDATE: Second one arrived with exactly the same issues as the first. Cutting edge is uneven, not sharp enough in places, rips/shreds the paper rather than cutting it. The metal used on the blade is low quality relatively soft metal, not the sort that will hold an edge. Even then, you'd think their machinery could produce a decently even, sharp surface even if it doesn't last. This is useless right out of the gate. I couldn't get a single good cut from it, and the thing gets totally stuck from the wedged shredded paper every single time. Returning, and I'm now searching for another 2.25" round paper punch, which sadly looks to be a difficult item to find.

Fantastic product. The price is really good for such a high quality item. It is really easy to use especially if you have dexterity problems. I find the EK Success punches and the Stampin Up punches are the best ones to use because you don't have to put too much pressure on them to punch cardstock. I have been using punches for several years and I would definitely recommend EK Success punches, I use this punch nearly every day and I haven't had any problems with it. I am slowly replacing my other brands of punches (because they are too heavy and bulky) with EK and Stampin Up punches because they are so easy to use, both brands are all stackable and take up far less storage space.

I've used this tool to cut over 700 circles on papers ranging from standard weight to 12 pt card stock in a very short time- it works very well. Cuts very clean, does not tear paper or jam. Very easy to use! After about 300 punches your shoulder starts to get a little sore, but what can you do. Good buy.

great quality. highly recommend

Article retourné car la perfo ne perforait pas bien le papier ... un papier cardstock encore moins ... J'ai pourtant une autre perfo de cette le même marque qui fonctionne super bien ...
