X-Acto X-ACTO 26315 Heavy-Duty Wood Base Guillo

Is suppose I expected a wooden product when the title says Wood, however this product is made of MDF. That being said it is sturdy enough. I would recommend this product for the price, however there are a few cons you should be aware of. The plastic hinge is a bit flimsy having a hard time staying extended during use. The blade has a tendency to droop. Certainly not suitable for cutting paper stacks, i would say the maximum density you could cut on this is about 1/8 inch but probably less. The track for the measurement guide is simply bad. Impossible to slide the track to the proper placement and lock it in place like on some other X-Acto models. The guide is difficult to fit into the track and once inserted it is even more difficult to lift out. Probably making it sound worse than it is but the biggest problem is definitely the track and guide, unfortunate because their other product has a decent solution for this that should have been implemented here. Clean cuts if you are only cutting minimal stacks or single sheets of paper. The larger size is its biggest asset.
