Dahle 552 Professional Rotary Trimmer, 20" Cut Length, 20 Sheet Capacity, Self-Sharpening, Dual Guide Bar, Automatic Clamp, German Engineered Paper Cutter

This unit is not cheap, but it is the best paper cutter I’ve used. And having worked in photography since the early 80s, I’ve used my fair share of paper cutters.

I have a 24" wide Sublimation Printer and a 13x19 WF-7720 Epson Printer and needed a way to cut the designs once they came off the roll and out the tray. I ordered and it came quickly. The only issue I had with it was that the screws were not set all the way flush and it was making the sides of the machine warp when sat on a flat surface. Ok! simple fix - loosened the screws and retightened and "Perfect". The ease of the blade, as it slides across, is like BUTTER. This brand is always performs up to the hype so I knew it wouldn't disappoint. I have cut fabric, paper, cardboard, vinyl, cardstock, posterboard, and more types of large-format media. I recommend it for Crafters / Custom Creators or home business owners. It's commercial quality for sure. If I have a lot of work that is going to spill over to the next day I just leave it on the table I use, putting it away I store it in the corner as it stands up easily on its side end. KEEP FINGERS AWAY FROM THE BLADE IT IS VERY SHARP. Not sure if this product comes in the same large format but electric. I will also buy that.

Works well from smaller prints, to 17 x 25 paper.

1. Impossible to do interior cuts, like you would need to do for a picture frame. 2. Struggles with 9 sheets of 24 lb. paper. 3. Very clean cuts 4. Magnetic guide bar and automatic clamp make relative cuts a breeze

I purchased this cutter because I needed an extremely accurate cutter that would be quick to use. Unfortunately, I have gone back to my mat, metal ruler and knife for important projects. It cuts great, through several pieces. It cuts cleanly. However, it doesn’t cut straight when using the bar at the bottom as a guide. It must be off just a tiny bit. If I use the printed guides lines, I generally get a true cut, but I was hoping for something to speed up my workflow. Also, it screeches horribly when you use it, which I could have dealt with if it cut accurately. I SHOULD HAVE RETURNED IT! Waste of money for my purposes.

pros: solid, smooth action, well built, clean cuts; definitely German quality cons: it is on expensive side

This is far and away the best paper cutter I've ever used. It is bigger than I anticipated though, so you might want to measure your office or craft room to be sure you have room for it. It's easy to use and makes clean, straight cuts. It says it can accommodate up to 20 sheets of paper at once, but I think it would be difficult to get a stack of paper like that under the pressure rail. It is solidly constructed, so should last a good long time. I think the instruction manual could be better - on the plus side it is written in 27 different languages.

Amazing and perfect for my small stationary business

Been using this for a while now and so far so good! Great item

Lunghezza di taglio Bis A2 da 720 millimetri. nuovo modello Generation 3. Ottima la guida di alluminio rinforzata sulla quale scorre il carrello della lama circolare.

What an amazing piece of kit well built and extremely well packaged expensive but with a five year guarantee I’m happy to have that included with this great item and hope for many years of use

Meilleure rogneuse que j' ai utilisé

As a mixed media artist I tend to build my work onto the paper thus often leading to warping or using heavy gsm papers. This trimmer has made light work of cutting through all of it. Which is very impressive as many others have failed. I find that I can get 100% accuracy in finding where I want to cut and a straight cut every time. Also with the double rotary bar the gig feels solid and does not wobble unlike other single bar trimmers! I couldn’t be happier with this paper trimmer and I would recommend it thoroughly!
