CARL DC-220 Reviews

Love it But....

Very well built and works very well. BUT I tried on the B+H website and the Carl website to find the overall dimensions. Maybe they were there but I couldn't find them. Problem is that it is too big for my work table and hangs over. I should have bought the smaller 12 one. The 12 one is considerably cheaper too. BUT the operating instructions are not very good. I had to resort to a independent YouTube video to figure out how to unlock the paper clamp.

Does the job

Works well for trimming single sheet of photo paper. The strip under the cutting blade doesn't want to stay in place.
