it's a fiskars. This one seems to be the closest to it. I got it at Costco (surprise, surprise).

Okay I don't have one like that, BUT I did start out with two different sized Fiskars trimmers like this and I could never ever get either one of them to cut a piece of paper straight! So annoying! So I think its just a Fiskars thing not operator error lol! I ended up buying a pink & green Provo Craft one that I never have any trouble with.

I had to laugh at your post, because I took a stab at a hybrid project last night and found myself cursing the glue dot dispenser!

LOL - Mimi, I have a similar model and it's very hard to get perfectly straight cuts out of it. I'm currently looking for a new one, but I want one that cuts 13" (I print layouts on 13 x 19 paper), any suggestions would be great!

I cannot operate a paper trimmer either. I still use my rotary cutter to trim everything.

This post made me giggle. Just a couple of hours ago I was working on a project and I told DH, "This would really suck without a paper cutter." It honestly did make my task so much quicker.
