3.0 out of 5 stars Fun gimmick, not really useful February 15, 2009

By Alan Winston

Color Name:Round 'n Round|Size Name:Large

This looked handy & fun so we thought we'd give it a try.

Bad choice.

The throat (distance you can punch from the edge of the paper) is only 1/8" -- which complicates positioning since you have to trim one edge within +/- 1/16" before punching -- so much for most of the advantage of positioning face up.

The mechanism is also not very sturdy, and jammed trying to do moderately heavy card stock. With some effort and perseverance, we got it unjammed again, but phooey.

The Paper Shapers punch we switched to is almost as easy to use punch-side up (though it wasn't made to be used that way), has a 3/4" throat (six times larger), for much, much easier positioning, and is much, much sturdier, going through the same piece of card stock with ease.

The squeeze design is a fun gimmick, and we wouldn't discourage you from trying one, but choose a pattern purely for play value and get something else for serious use.

3.0 out of 5 stars Quality not living up to the Fiskars name. October 3, 2011

By Michael Mcbeath Jr.

Color Name:Round 'n Round| Size Name:Large|Amazon Verified Purchase

I've owned many Fiskars products over the years. From scissors to tree trimmers. They have always been a quality brand.

This hole punch isn't quite with the rest of their products.

I would give it 3.5 if I could.

Overall the design is great. The "see where you are cutting" idea is ideal for the project I'm working on.

The downside is the cutting dies aren't exactly perfect to each other. When you squeeze it closed without anything it you can see small gaps and nicks in the outside circle. When you cut something out you see rough edges where these are.

In the big picture this isn't a big deal, but like I said it's disappointing coming from a company who specializes in cutting devices.

1.0 out of 5 stars Flimsy and cheap materials February 7, 2011

By Naomi Lee

Color Name:Round 'n Round|Size Name:Large

I used my punch for the third time -- and the moving handle literally broke in my hands. I was not using a death grip; indeed, I have rather small hands without a strong grip. The handle broke off and is irreparable. Oy.
