Premier HRP12 Rotary Trimmer Review
A good rotary trimmer can make just about any cutting job much easier. One of the trimmers currently on the market is the Premier HRP12 Personal Rotary Trimmer from Martin Yale, a device with a lot of convenient features. Here’s an in-depth look at this cutter so you can determine if it’s something you may want to purchase for your home or office.
- The HRP12 can cut paper that’s up to 12 inches long. This cutting length is perfect for paper that’s letter-sized (8.5” x 11”). You’ll also be able to work with smaller sheets of paper and photographs.
- When you use this trimmer, you’ll be able to cut up to 10 sheets of paper at a time. This cutting capacity is good for smaller jobs that you need to take care of. However, if you think you’re going to need to trim large amounts of paper on a daily basis, a guillotine cutter might be a better selection.
- It’s easy to get an accurate cut because the HRP12 is equipped with Martin Yale’s trademarked PerfiCut cutting line. This line floats about the paper and is vividly colored so you’ll know exactly where to trim your materials. This feature takes out a lot of the guesswork you may encounter when using other trimmers.
- The HRP12 has a button you can push to choose between a perforated and a straight cut. This eliminates the need for changing blades and will help you save some time. It will also come in handy if you’re using the cutter for creative projects or if you just need to fold a bunch of documents.
- This trimmer has a measurement grid printed on the base so you can measure your documents beforehand. There are also cutting guides to help you get the cut you need. Also, you can easily make slanted cuts because there are angled lines printed on the base.
- The HRP12 is pretty big and has dimensions of 7-1/8″ (width) x 18-1/8″ (length) x 3″ (height). Because of its size, you’ll want to make sure you have enough room for it on your work surface. If you ever need to move it, you’ll find it easy because it only weighs 2 pounds.
- Finally, this product is available at a reasonable price point and it’s backed by a 1-year warranty.
Recommendation:
Due to its cutting capacity, the Premier HRP12 would be an ideal choice for home or office users that routinely work with small or medium-sized batches of paper. The 10-sheet cutting capacity is typical of this kind of trimmer, as is the 12-inch trimming length. This trimmer is really easy to use thanks to the PeriCut feature and the cutting guides. Also, the dual-duty straight cut/perforating blade is a terrific addition and really makes this device user-friendly. It also makes it safe to use since you don’t need to handle the blade, which could lead to injuries. If this sounds like everything you want in a rotary trimmer, take a look at the HRP12 today.
