Comments about Dahle 442 Premium Trimmer (20-1/8"):
I've given it a five since for the couple weeks I've had this, it has been a pure pleasure to use it. Granted, my last one came from a generic office store, but this unit is precise; it is easy to read the crop numbers; the blade is sharp; and it runs effortlessly on its rail. Good, sturdy, small studio machine.

I use this trimmer cut out a lot of product packaging and brochures. It cuts all I need cleanly but the sliding movement is not very smooth compared to others I have used. So it feels cheap in that area.

the cut is fantastic. the accuracy of cutting the smallest slices is fantastic. doesnt leave any marks on the paper on either side of the cut.
only issue (which other people had mentioned on other sizes of this item) is that the right angle guide bar doesnt always line up to a perfect 90 degrees. i would hope for something better (for that part) on a trimmer this expensive. just have to double check before you cut something. also, i was cutting some wallet sized photos (2x3 inches) and you pretty much have to totally line those up yourself

I use this to trim fine art supplies after printing. The edges are very clean and difficult to tell from the original edges. There are no problems with the heavier papers, I wish that I had this a few years ago.
