Akiles OffiTrim 1512 Paper Cutter Review
Akiles is a trusted name in the document finishing industry. The company makes everything from laminators and binding machines to booklet makers and guillotine paper cutters. Of their cutters is the OffiTrim 1512, a device that’s worth considering if you need a trimmer. Here’s what you need to know about this product, including what kind of rating it gets on a scale of 1 to 10.
- The 1512 has a decent cutting capacity but it’s not the best you’ll find. It can only cut 10 sheets of 20 lb. bond paper at a time. This device would be good for small jobs but if you need to cut a lot of paper quickly, it may not do the trick.
- This trimmer has a 15-inch cutting length. That makes it ideal for commonly sized documents including those that are letter- and legal-sized (8.5” x 11” and 8.5” x 14”). It would also be good for smaller pieces of paper. However, this isn’t the cutter to use if you need to trim really large documents.
- The base of this trimmer is 15” (depth) x 12” (width). It’s not terribly big so making room for in your work environment will be easy. You could even take it on the road with you because it weighs just slightly over 8 pounds. It would definitely come in handy at crafting parties or even school events.
- The 1512 has a blade that’s been made out of hardened stainless steel. It’s extremely sharp and even has a convex edge so it will cleanly trim your documents. The blade has also been treated so it won’t rust. Plus, the blade is spring-loaded so it will revert back to the “open” position after each cut. When you’re done using the cutter, you can use the safety control to keep the blade locked down for safety.
- You can be sure that all of your paper will be evenly cut because the 1512 has an adjustable back gauge as well as a magnetic paper stopper and a pressing bar. These features will help you line up your documents precisely while keeping them in place as you cut. An alignment grid is printed on the base so you can line up your documents before lowering the blade.
- Finally, the 1512 is covered by a one-year warranty and is affordably priced. It should cost you less than $100.00 so it’s a good trimmer to get if you want to save some money.
Rating: 8. Overall, the Akiles OffiTrim 1512 is a decent choice if you need a guillotine paper cutter. While the cutting capacity isn’t the greatest, it’s good enough for small jobs. The cutting length is decent and the trimmer won’t take up very much room. Plus, this device has a strong, sharp blade that will cleanly slice through your documents. And, of course, this cutter is safe to use thanks to its integrated safety features. So if you need a paper cutter, be sure to give the 1512 some consideration.
