Edge Banding Trimmer, Veneer/Laminate Edge Trimmer Mini Plastic PVC Plywood Melamine Wood Edge Band Cutter, Manual Trimming Woodworking Tool

I bought one of these and when I went to clamp down on it the spring got twisted and stuck closed rendering the cheap product un useable. Get a box blade or an exacto knife. much more useful and less expensive.

Falls apart

Very easy to use

The concept is good, but its not smooth when cutting and tears more than it sheers. I had tear out that should not be happening all down the edge using this tool. I feel like I get a better cut with a spoon. I will say the concept of it is well thought out, but none of that matters if it does not perform the way it should.

Does not leave a smooth edge.

First pass destroyed the edge band and dies of the shelf ….. cheap not very good

Wasted money on this

This edge band trimmer cleanly cut 1/2, 3/4, 1-1/2, and 2 edge banding on plywood and poplar boards. Im trimming edging for 19 windows, all but 4 windows are 6x4, and also baseboards, door trim, and plinth blocks. It took me a little practice to figure out how to hold the double-cut trimmer to get the perfectly relieved edges I wanted. It required adjustment of the angled blades on the good side of the trim. Relieved edges take paint better than squared edges. For the 1/2 fillets and 2 plinth blocks, I separated the trimmer and trimmed one side of the board at a time. When the blades failed, it happened quickly. The blades needed changing out after around 400 feet of edging was completed. Luckily, the trimmer came with one extra set of blades. I had just replaced the blades in the photo, thus the trimmer is in two parts. I highlighted the arrows with black marker to more easily see the trimming direction and for ease of reassembling the trimmer parts. Now I need to learn how to get additional blade set replacements. I have A LOT of trim yet to be edged.

Very practical but result is not very good. It does not cut smooth and rips and tears often. Maybe is used error but I am getting better results with a box cutter.

Didnt work for me. Hard to close and sticks on release. Does seems to work if everything is perfectly lined up. Needs 2 springs, it has the slots for it. Or, maybe mine came with only one. Definitely think it would work better with 2 springs. Didnt cut all that well, so I didnt bother inquiring about another spring. Shouldve been there to start with...
